Has been a reliable printer. I have needed to clean the heads often to keep from having many lines on my pictures. Big downfall is that, after a while, the pages started printing crooked. Pictures and text aren't very sharp either.
Bought four of these direct from Epson over a year ago. CIS system (continuous ink system) on each system and I have been printing as much or as little as I want with no clogging or any other problems. I also use their system on an Epson R260 with even better results. This little gem never clogs or messes up. They also carry replacement ink which I have also used and it is fantastic. The secret is not to use Epson's crappy ink. Currently using two actively with fantastic results. Kyson's ink is far superior to Epson's and is formulated so perfectly that I have had no problems what so ever with printing.
It is designed to make them money with wasted ink with continual cleaning cycles every time it starts. I instead threw their junk cartridges away and installed a Kyson [.]. I thoroughly tested the CIS units for over a year under all sorts of conditions and had no problems with their product and the prices are excellent. 317-536-8127 -Guy
What a piece of junk. Avoid epson like the plague. I literally banged it with my fist really hard and the streaking lessoned - even after putting in brand new cartridges.
If you don't print with it everyday, the jets clog up. Great. Sure the first week it printed fine.
Now i have $80 dollars worth of useless ink. I was getting streaking galore the night before an important presentation. Then for no apparent reason it only printed magenta.
My C84 was only slightly better. Phu Yuk.
I just read all comments on this page, and I agree with all negative comments.I went through 2 Epson printers this year, and I run a business at home.I agree, the ink goes like crazy, and then, if for some reason, you didn't placethe paper correctly, it is simply the end. I just went crazy with the two machines.
Easy to hook up, love the printer and quality of print. Color is great but is does us the black ink very quickly -- but I still would have bought this one -- love it.
