Epson, when you hear the name, first thing that comes to mind, is great picture quality. Well this printer actually prints great pictures. I bought this printer almost 3 years back, and ever since, i may have used the printer about 20 times. The picture quality if perfect, but this itself is kind of a drawback. You see, if the picture quality is good, the amount of ink used is greater. I soon realized this, and was staring to regret the fact i bought an Epson. Since it prints great pictures, the cartridges finish very very fast. And adding to the damage the Epson colour cartridges are very expensive (about $50). And so i stared using my printer less and less, ...  Read the complete review

To beat this printer on price and value for money,is in my opinion impossible.The quality of output is remarkable with sharp text and excellent photo reproduction,make this printer a very useful piece of equipment for anyone with a limited budget.The ink refils are relatively cheap and the sturdy build mean that this printer should last quite a while.I myself have been using this printer for 9 months and have not had any problems at all.In fact I am very hesitant to even consider changing it.A well spent £80. ...  Read the complete review

At present I am the owner of a 3½ year old Epson 400 printer. At the time, this printer cost £149 and was a superb printer in terms of photo-quality. It was not the best, but for the purchasing price it beat any other printer in its league. The main problem with the printer at the time was its plain paper quality - feathering and dull colours in any resolution. However, things changed with the revised models and improvements have been seen in all areas. What the printer lacked in top end quality (it was and still is only a 720dpi printer) it has since gained in all round use. This was something only the Hp printers could manage until recently. The ...  Read the complete review

If like me you don't do a lot of printing but nevertheless want a good quality, reasonably cheap printer for the occasions when you do want to print, then you could do a lot worse than invest in this. Generally available for around £60 - £70 the Epson's main advantage is it's cheapness to run. Cartridges retail at about £12 for a black cartridge & £15 for the colour. Not bad at all considering I have had mine 8 months & haven't changed it yet. The build quality is excellent. I gives the impression it could go 12 rounds with Mike Tyson and still be in 1 piece. Installation is doddle, a good clearly lablled manual is provided that ...  Read the complete review

I have had my Stylus 460 for a few months now - and i am very impressed. For less than £60 you get an excellent printer, ideal for home use. The print quality is excellent, even on copy paper (the quality improves even further is you use the expensive epson papers). I chose an Epson over the Canon and Hewlett Packard printers because they are cheaper to run - cartridges are a lot cheaper and there is an abundance of cheaper compatible Epson cartridges available compared to other brands. In addition, the printer has separate black and colour cartridges which is more economical. In 4 months of moderate use I am still using the original cartridges - ...  Read the complete review
