Epson print quality using individual inks to keep costs down easy to set up, it has two paper trays to keep paper dust free. Main paper tray holds 100 sheets 2nd paper tray holds 20 sheets of photo paper. The only niggle I have with the printer is you have to open the front and extend the print tray manually, its a small niggle otherwise I am very pleased with it.
We were surprised by how easy it is to print things out from our mobile phone. The printing quality matches the money that i had paid for.
It just quality I am a v happy bunny . U get what u pay fo
The print quality is superb and it is fast and quiet (the scanner almost silent) but the design is just odd.
The paper tray at the very bottom has a front flap that must remain open – why?
Above that you have another paper tray that is supposed to be used for photo paper – but it will not take A4 photo paper (that I use a lot) so I have to put A4 photo paper into the bottom paper cassette. This second paper tray is useless to me, as is the CD tray that sits underneath. The last time I printed a CD was about 15yrs ago.
And then above those is the paper-out tray, that must be pulled out before you can print (fair enough) but you have to lift up the control panel to extract the tray! Why not make the control panel a little less deep so it doesn’t have to be lifted up?
My previous Epson had a setting to turn off the printer after x minutes, but this one doesn’t – it just goes into standby mode – what happened to saving the planet?
A couple of good things though – it takes card easily (even without turning on the thick paper setting) and the cartridges are vertically on the right so easy to get to.
Next time you build a printer Epson – give me a call!
Some manufacturer could steal the market if they made printers that you did not have to take out a second mortgage to replace the ink every 6 months. Epson is not them.
Therefore, this ageing punk is well pleased
The installation from the supplied CD went without a hitch and the print quality is great, although the black ink cartridge supplied in the printer box flatly refused to lock (click) into place.
Although sitting almost fully down in the cartridge tray alongside the coloured cartridges (that did actually did lock down), I’m assuming a cartridge issue but the jury’s out whether it’s the cartridge or the printer cartridge tray at fault. Will update once the black ink cartridge has eventually been replaced.
I like the front paper loading via a tray you pull out which means I can use the printer in an enclosed space unlike my last printer whereby the paper had to be loaded from the rear.
Print quality is more than adequate for my needs and the auto-duplex function is useful if you need to print double-sided output.
One thing to note is that the ink cartridges supplied with the printer ran out before I had even completed the set-up process printing test sheets etc so I would ensure you order a set of inks ahead of time.
It is intuitive and easy to use and I am no IT genius.
Quality of printing – both black and white and colour – are good, but by no means exceptional.
The scanner works well but is much, much slower than my old Canon LIDE 220. It’s OK to scan 1 – 2 pages but would require infinite patience for a 25 page document.
It’s a very reasonable size and a proper paper tray is a bonus for me.
So, for the price, yes it’s good and I am happy. But not over the moon, what a bargain happy.
As far as it works, it is excellent; where it is unsatisfactory is that the language displayed on the screen is Estonian. I have tried to convert it to English, without success. Advice on the web about this kind of problem (surprisingly common it seems) relates to pcs, whereas I have have a mac (OS Big Sur 11.6.2). I can control basic printing from my computer, but I would like to know, and maybe make use, of the printer’s other options. Related to this problem, I found it unsatisfactory that a manual, print or online, was not available. I chose an Epson because my otherwise satisfactory Canon did not talk to my newly installed Big Sur OS – so I didn’t buy a new Canon. Should I avoid Epson as well for any future purchase?
This is a second purchase because I had several cartridges left over. It produces good quality photographic image, but the praise gets a bit thin. It is slow. The 3 drawer system means you have to make sure you have arranged them correctly. The computerised instructions include unnecessary stages which need monitoring before you move on. I use it online. Having it on wi-fi is a total waste of time as you have to sit at arm’s length to follow one or other instruction. (I’m running it in conjunction with a laser printer which is much cheaper to run for all my text documents. ( had problems setting it up because of having the same printer. In the end i removed the old printer, then was able to install the new one without any interaction between the old and new
I’ve used Epson printers for many years and they’ve been reliable and pretty user friendly. I bought the XP-6100 because I wanted an “All-in One” printer that offered USB connectivity to my desktop PC. I’m now the wrong side of 70 so was hoping for an easy to follow “Quick Start Guide” but instead found a very confusing “instruction sheet” which seemed to assume I knew exactly how to set up the device and a CD-ROM which was not mentioned anywhere. I downloaded the User Manual from Epson’s website and found nothing to help me. I’ll not describe my stumbling steps; I’ll simply say once fully unpacked plug the printer into the power supply, run the CD on your computer and follow the on screen instructions — they are straightforward and work. In operation the printer functions well and the accompanying software is pretty comprehensive. Having always been used to a top-loaded paper supply I’ve found the internal paper tray a bit awkward when manually printing “double sided” (the User Guide suggests that there is an automatic solution but I can’t work out how to do that!). And I was a bit thrown when printing a sequence of document pages to find the printer’s default setting was to print in reverse order (Google soon provided the solution to that!). The scanner and copying facilities work fine. I’ve only had the printer for a few weeks but so far so good. It is just a shame that Epson don’t work a little harder at providing better and more intelligible guidance — pictograms and minimal text don’t necessarily cut it.
Larger and heavier than my XP-322, though not excessively. Setting it up was fairly easy, but it does take some time. When you first load up the ink cartridges it runs through an initialisation which takes about ten minutes. I have no idea what the printer is doing that it needs ten minutes to initialise. I don’t know if it’s because it’s starting up for the very first time, or perhaps it will does this whenever I replace the ink.
Linking it to my WiFi was easy, though I did end up using the slow method of entering the WiFi password on the printer itself, rather than via the set up software on my MacBook (which never seemed to find the printer initially).
Now that it is set up, everything is running smoothly. The quality of printing is great! I have yet to try the scanning/copying features, but I am confident it will be good.
I like the discreet paper tray it has (XP-322 didn’t have one), which tucks away underneath the printer.
One bonus it has that I did not realise before purchase: it prints double-sided. On my previous printers I would have to manually turn over and reinsert a printed page to get double-sides printing. With this printer, it does it for you. Double-sided printing is a bit slow, but it’s more convenient than having to manually do it.
So, yes, I am happy with this printer and would recommend it for the home user.
