Pros: Inexpensive, good quality Cons: none
When I started hunting for a new printer I set a $200 budget. I looked at Cannon, HP and other Epson models but in the end purchased the Epson 740 because, at $150, it was under my budget and I was impressed by the test pages I saw.
I have...

Pros: fast and good and cheap Cons: uses up ink pretty fast
This is one of the best printers i have used, for an inkjet. It is fast reliable, and its price is unbelievable. I basically use it for school work, and when I need a report printed fast, I know that I am prepared with this printer. The dpi is great...

Pros: Easy to set up USB, price, color printing quality Cons: Black text quality, not near a laser
This is a good printer. It prints high-quality photorealistic images, and prints black and white text nice and fast. The USB port is also a great advantage, setting up the printer took all of five seconds. The price (I got it on sale for $74.95) is...

Pros: excellent image quality, decent speed, good looking Cons: loud, slightly annoying install
I picked up a 740i to go with my iBook, and it's great. I was especially impressed with how great digital photos look when printed on photo-quality glossy paper -- to the point where I may give in and buy a digital camera. For iMac/iBook owners, the...

Pros: price, ease of operation, resolution Cons: larger footprint than some printers
I chose this printer when I needed to upgrade from my Lexmark 1100. I enjoy creating greeting cards, calendars, etc. for friends and family and needed better resolution and easier operation. My friend had already purchased the 740 and was completely...

Pros: High Quality Printing-especially when used on photo paper; rarely jams;
Easy to Use Cons: Rather expensive ink; runs through ink quickly
I bought the Epson Color Stylus 740 at the same time I bought my computer. I needed a relatively basic printer that would print out my word documents as well as my pictures. The printer was pretty cheap (especially for Epson)-$150 and is great for my...

Pros: Price, printed images Cons: Likes ink
Epson is one of the number one printers on my list. The Epson Stylus 740 color ink-jet is a great printer. It prints out crisp clear pictures and great rich text. There is a lot of ports on this printer to. You can hook it up to your imac, a pc or a...

Pros: OK OUTPUT Cons: Hard installation, SLOW
All I hear about Epson is good things. Great photo quality, great speed and support. however my experiences have clearly contradicted this generalization. I have owned both the Epson 740 and the Epson 600 and neither have reached my approval. First of...

Pros: value Cons: no WinME drivers, problems in photoshop colors
I have yet to get a driver that works properly under Windows ME. For the time being, I had to connect this to my Windows 98se machine to be able to print anything. I'll probably just have to check back on Epson's site for a driver update.
It...

Pros: great value, decent quality Cons: will bleed on good stationary, can be slow, software only ok
Synopsis:
After the fuser assembly on my Apple Laserwriter 300 died (a $70-100 repair), I mourned the loss of my trusty laser workhorse. I bought a 740 from buy.com with a ton of rebates that brought it down to about $50. A great machine,...

Pros: Fast, Quality, Inexpensive Cons: Goes through ink quickly
After purchasing the Epson Stylus 740 color printer i realized what I had been missing. When inkjet color printers began to get popular I bought an HP, by todays standards it looked like a pre-k students finger paintings. When I bought my scanner I...

Pros: cheaper ink refills made by Amazon, easy to use, inexpensive overall cost Cons: i don't like the paper tray (but they are all pretty much set up this way now)
I recently bought a refurbished 740 printer from MicroWarehouse and I fell in love with it ever since I hooked it up to my USB port. It is a good at home/college printer. I have printed a lot of reports and pictures off the internet and it does a...

Pros: beautiful photo quality, reliable performance, great printer driver Cons: relatively noisy and slow
I bought my epson 740 3 years ago at a local bestbuy store, after comparing the print quality with HP, Canon and Lexmarks. Now after 3 years of extensive use - hundrends of full color, high resolution prints, it still works strong. though printing text...

Pros: USB, Picture Quality, ease of use, Software Bundle Cons: Annoying Paper Tray
I have been using Epson printers ever since they came out with the Stylus Color IIs, and have been impressed with their products ever since. That is why I decided to make technology jump to USB with the Stylus 740. Not only does it create crisp, sharp...
