Rating: Summary: For the money it's fine Review: Good little printer - can be a little loud ! Print cartridges easy to find on-line and a lot cheaper !
Rating: Summary: espon c43 ux = worthless Review: i bought this printer a year ago. It was really cheap, till I found out that they probably make all the money from the ink, that manages to run out faster than any other printer I used. So I go on the epson canada website, and they have a ' Will reply within 24 hours ' message. Its been 2 weeks. The printed doesnt print anymore, i got new ink, and all it gives are black lines and a faded yellow on the paper, looks like the head is gone. This is the last time, I or anyone asking me about a printer, are ever going to get an epson one. (wish there was a no star rating)
Rating: Summary: not to bad Review: I bought this printer at the BYU bookstore because it was cheaper than the ink for my old lexmark. It is a bit louder, but it is still nice and compact. I don't like that a little window showing how much ink you have left pops up during printing, because I'm an ink miser. The photos I've printed have been fantastic, and I"m satisfied with it overall.
Rating: Summary: Epson C42UX Review: I don't write reviews but for the first week of using this printer I hated it. Constantly had to clean the head and waste ink. Lo and Behold I sat down and read the manual for this printer. For years I have used printers that I simply turned off with a master computer switch. Epson is different. You must turn the printer off with it's own power switch. Otherwise the heads do not charge properly. This took care of all the complaints I had with this printer. The C42UX is the best inexpensive printer I have ever used. Just remember, from day one that you use the printer, turn the thing off with it's own power switch. All Epson Ink Jet printers sound loud and clunkey. Thats the way they are made. You find me a better printer for the money and I will buy it.Js
Rating: Summary: not up to parr Review: i found that this printer was very slow,and not as clear as my old one,i also could not find cart, at any stores in the dfw area,,,,,,it was very disapointing to me,,,,,
Rating: Summary: Great printer but ... Review: I give the printer itself 5 Stars for ease of use, speed & quality of output. The issue is the replacement cartridges. I can't find them in any local office supply stores. So stock up when you order the printer!
Rating: Summary: this printer is JUNK Review: I got the printer with my new laptop a year ago, after having it for about 6 months, it just stopped printing, i went to the epson website and went through a tutorial and that didnt help so they suggested i call the customer service number, when i called they informed me it would cost $10 just to talk to someone, this really pissed me off, to get the printer fixed it is going to cost more than i actually paid for it, so im throwing the piece of crap in the trash and buying a new and better printer. i wouldnt waste your time on this hunk of junk, plus it was always running out of ink when it actually printed.
Rating: Summary: Very poor, I attest Review: I purchased one because of the low price, but I wish I didn't. Injet printers clog, that's a given, but with my old Canon, all I have to do is use a cotton swab with some alcohol to clean the print head, and the printer will print again. This thing, the printer heads are inaccessible, instead it has a gimmicky program that supposedly clean the heads for you, but after a long sequence of moaning and screeching, the printer heads are still clogged. You just waste your time, ink and paper. If a computer program can "clean" a physical object, we should be able to do away with brooms and vacuum and ... Stay away from this one.
Rating: Summary: not worth it Review: I received this printer free with my powerbook G4. Now I know why they have to give it away! The worst part: if you run out of black ink, the printer won't let you print in color until you install a new black ink cartridge and vice versa if you run out of color. I also have to press the paper feed button every time before i can print (why counldn't epson automate this process?). The amount of ink it uses is crazy and expensive and the quality is only OK.
Rating: Summary: Cheap, because it's slow, noisy, and inefficient. Review: I thought I was getting a great deal because I got this new for under $30 after a rebate. Boy was I wrong. The black ink lasted me about two months of moderate use, compared to a year of heavy use in my old Xerox multifunction. This means you will be buying lots of ink for this. The cartridges are cheaper than, say, HP cartridges, but as far as I can tell that's because they have 1/2 the ink. It's also very slow, even when printing in black-only. It's very noisy and irritating in true Epson style. And, to top it off, the print quality is very mediocre. You can tell at first glance that the output was from a cheap inkjet. I'm replacing this as soon as I can with a better printer, probably another Multifunction, and probably not from Epson, just to spite them.
