Pros: good quality, network support, paper extender (for 8½” by 14”)
Cons: expensive (printer and cartridge), cleans very often (making sounds)
Summary: In 1998, I realized I needed a new printer. The one that I had previously been using (a Canon LBP-430 from ’91) needed a new cartridge and they weren’t available anymore. The Canon printer cost $800 (it was one of the first printers) and cartridges ... read more

Pros: Good Product Quality, Many Good Options to let you pick exactly what you want.
Cons: You've got to wait a long time before it prints for the primming process.

Pros: Quality printing, decent speed, long-life/high output
Cons: Cost of cartridges = sell your home.
Summary: I've been using my Epson 850, as an upgrade from the 600, for over a year. I've printed thousands of sheets for my business, and it's still going strong.
The key, I believe, is to learn to refill and reset your cartridges. Once the printer 'tells' ... read more

Pros: Excellent color and graphics quality WHEN NEW.
Cons: Loud, slow at starting print jobs, not very durable.
Summary: I bought this printer right after it came out on the market, and sad to say it has pretty much made me wary of ever buying an Epson again. I was very impressed the first six months of purchasing this product; I could print incredible quality photos, the ... read more

Pros: I can get generic cartridges very cheap. Decent quality picture printing.
Cons: Seems to clean the heads before nearly every print job; dirty text printing.
Summary: I bought this printer on the recommendation of a friend that owns a computer shop. It seemed OK at first but we really are not happy with it now. We sent the first one back because it seemed to take forever to print. The second one does the same thing ... read more

Pros: Great Output
Cons: Long warm-up period
Summary: This was my printer for the last few years before I recently replaced it with the new Epson 1270. On the plus side, it was extremely reliable. It never broke down and the print heads never clogged. The quality of the output was excellent as well. Text ... read more

Pros: Great quality, fast color and black printing, easy to install
Cons: Warm up time is 7 mins when turned on.
Summary: The Epson Stylus Color 850 is the envy of all other Ink Jet Printers on the market. What impressed me the most was how fast you could get your colored prints, as fast as 7 pages per minute, and black ink printing was even faster at 9 pages per minute. ... read more

Pros: Speed, Cost, Quality
Cons: Ink is expensive and goes fast
Summary: Well, there was no category for the Stylus 800, which is what I have. This is the closest I could find. Anyway, it's a great printer. Amazingly fast, awesome quality when you want to up the settings (although slows significantly)
Ink is ... read more
