... for colour cartridge and one for the black cartridge which holds 50% more ink than the Color 680 and yet strangely costs the same(ish) price. Paper is loaded in through the top-loading paper tray which holds upto 100 sheets and exits to a telescopic outray at te front which can be folded away when not in use to save space and prevent damage. Unlike most Epsom printers this one does not attempt to clean itslef ever five seconds or far as long which is a huge bonus. Print speeds are also pretty fast here as well print...more

The Epson Stylus Color 880 is the big brother to Epson's other similar offering - the Stylus COlor 680. For the few extra pounds(around £40 more) you get a more conventional looking, faster, more economical printer with increased ink capacity in the black cartridge - well worth it in my opinion, especially in the long run when this printer will worth out cheaper than the 680. The printer is the conventional rectangular, cream coloured machine with a smoked lift up lid to access to business end of the proceedings. Twin print heads present themselves for inspection upon lifting of this lid - one for colour cartridge and one for the black cartridge which holds ... Read the complete review

Looks a bit plain and old fashioned in it 760 shape - but looks deceive. This printer is cost efective - especially when generic cartridges can be obtained for as little as £2.40. Pros: Very quiet, almost as fast on colour graphics as black and white, easy to use with cartridge level display and tray indicator software, excellent photo quality, efficient paper feed, incredibly cheap to run. Cons: space wasting and feeble paper support, elderly shape, slow to reset when turned on, hidden settings for 2880 dot printing, slow @ 2880 dots, no second feed facility for custom paper, integral transformer takes up rear space - increasing footprint, driver ...

As soon I got this printer, I enjoyed using it straight away. The printout quality is first class - crisp black and colour on standard paper. The cartridges last an extremely long time, although the printer driver nomally tells you to change the cartridge way before it is actually empty, so just ignore this. The printer driver is very user friendly and easy to use, although sometimes it is a bit of a pain when installing. I have had no problems using parallel, but since i've started using USB, it seems like it gets errors all of the time, but USB printing is much faster, and maybe it's just my cable. The print quality is fantastic, 2880dpi x ... Read the complete review
