Advantages: Great value for money printer

Disadvantages: Bit noisy perhaps, but who cares?

I purchased my Epson Stylus Colour 740 quite a while ago, and it has served me extremely well for a few reams of paper.You can still find these printers in the shops at a very reasonable price despite their age.

The 740 has the capability to print excellent quality photographs at 1440 dpi resolution. This is due to the extremely good colour management sytem which is included. I have had excellent results from my epson for a couple of years now, and wouln't change it. There are of course more advanced printers on the market, but in my opinion none to mach the 740 for value for money.

The ink cartridges are not as expensive as say the lexmark or Hewlett Packard ones, at about £12 each. Although if you buy PCWorld's own brand, or Ko-Rec type cartridges, you can get them much cheaper at anything down to half the price.

I must admit to being impressed.
