Epson Stylus® CX5200 All-In-One InkJet Printer

Pros: There are so many things to say, you will have to read the review!
Cons: NONE!!!

Well as promised the review about the new printer! I am so glad I made the choice I did with this printer for it is just simply wonderful!

The colors are spectacular, the scanner is to do die for and the copier is just simply wonderful! It...

Pros: Fast, four separate ink cartridges, nice copying features
Cons: Feeding mechanism is noisy, driver quirks

Normally, when I think of an all-in-one printer, I think of awful drivers, cheap parts, and bad quality. It seems like everywhere I look, people say that these multifunction printers are the worst things you could possibly buy because of their supposed ...

Pros: Ease of use; full featured; excellent scanner and speed(see review)
Cons: Feed mechanism is very loud and startling. Highest color print level is very slow

Let me start by saying, I have owned other Epson products before and I am actually replacing my curr ...

Pros: Crisp text. Great photos on plain or matte paper. individual ink cartridges. Easy to use.
Cons: Loud paper feed. Fairly expensive ink. Ink scuffs easily.

I purchased the CX5200 about 8 months ago to replace an older Epson printer (the 720 DPI Stylus color 400) and a Mustek scanner. Epson offered a $40 rebate to upgrade. (The rebate coupon was in an ink package I bought for my old printer). Prices on this ...

Pros: Very mediocre printer, and not dependable.
Cons: Tall unit (requires space). Color photo and print making not easy, not good quality.

INTRODUCTION:I purchased the Epson Stylus CX5200 multi-function printer for home use after much deliberation and consideration of the Epinion reviews. I also checked in with the sales people at the Staples and Office Depot stores, but I ...

Pros: All-in-one, Dura-Brite ink, nice printouts.
Cons: Noisy, quirky paper feed mechanism. Pushy, unfriendly software. Broke after 18 months.

I bought this printer about a year ago when my daughter was born. I decided I wanted a photo quality printer with multiple ink tanks and long-lasting printouts. I also needed a scanner. My parents had bought an HP 2110 all-in-one unit which I had ...

Pros: Great unit. Individual ink cartridges and nice prints.
Cons: Noisy paper feed (but reliable) and average photo printing; flat bed copying only.

This is just a fantastic unit for the price. I've seen them for $150 now and compared to a simple in ...

Pros: Ease of use, economy of ink (especially generic), speed, software
Cons: Print heads don't last, loud paper handling, scanner focus

If had written this review after 3 months, it would have been glowing, and I think several others have done just that. After one year, however, I'm compelled to write "the rest of the story" because it's changed. Within the first week of having this ...

Pros: Functionality (scan,copy, print), performance, build quality, keypad convenience
Cons: size, color printing not up to photo standards

We just recently replaced our second Lexmark printer with the Epson Stylus CX5200. The biggest drawback of the Lexmark is, I believe, one of the strongest suits for the CX5200. When the Lexmark ran out of ink, you had to buy another print cartridge. At ...

Pros: Prints, Scans, and Copies. Ink relatively inexpensive. Ink last over 70 years.
Cons: Not Photo Quality Printing. Colors Come out poor.

Got this multi-functional printer in part because my wife does a lot of scrapbooking and the ink from this Epson lasts > 70 years. However, the photo quality from this printer is poor enough to make this benefit a non-issue since you would not want to ...

Pros: Worked well for about a year.....
Cons: print heads clog, uses lots of ink to try to clean, head cleaning doesn't work

Bought CX5200, worked well for 13 months, just as warranty was up, print heads clogged and could not be cleaned using the only utility offered. Tech support was quick to offer a replacement, upgrade to CX5400, at no charge, even though warranty was up. I ...

Pros: great features, good size
Cons: Heads glog easily. chip prevents printer from operating when low on ink-even when cartridge halffull.

This is not the first Epson printer i have had. In fact I have had 4 different epson printers in the past all of them have worked wonderfully--except this one. It started out as a great printer with good easy to use features and good quality (although ...

Pros: Prints wonderully Warms up quickly
Cons: Plastic scan/copy bed should be glass Some software components not stable.

The 5200 is a good pal to have around the home office. When it came time to replace my old 800c, I w ...

Pros: Fantastic Copying, excellent scanner, high quality prints
Cons: Slightly noisy paper feed, no border-free printing, BUT THATS ALL!!!!

If, like me, you have read the other 7 or so reviews given about this product, you're probably one thing - CONFUSED! or at the very least unsure as to whether or not to purchase the CX5200. So let me help you out....... After reading the other review ...

Pros: Easy to use. Quick copy and scanning.
Cons: Permanent print head is prone to clogging... Costly repair.

Well, I'm not really good at reviews, since I've only done a few.. But I feel I need to mention a real problem with this printer... and possibly all Epson printers. I've had this printer for about 1.5 years. And at first, I liked it. Didn't LOVE it, ...
