Summary: No wonder it was free
Review: ... If I would have known that it would be this bad, you couldn't have paid me to take it.First, it makes so much noise. Whenever you turn your computer off, for about 1 minute it makes this horrible sound. I had to unplug it until I wanted to print.
Second, it wastes a lot of ink. It has to charge everytime you try to make a print. I printed about 5 things over a period of 2 months. The ink was gone.
Last, it takes 3 minutes to print one copy of something. Not very good unless you have a lot of spare time on your hands. Do the world some good and don't get this printer.

Summary: Good for the money.
Review: Had a problem installing this because certain drivers didn't work with Windows ME. However, tech support walked me through and it works fine now. Only use "fast" print if you have good eyes. You really need to use normal setting to be able to read anything you print. Good printer for the money.

Summary: noisy, expensive to run
Review: I bought this printer not too long ago .. absolutely the worst buy I have ever made. This printer is noisy .. slow .. EXPENSIVE to maintain .. (ink finishes fast .. and if you don't use it for awhile ink dries up as well) .. truly a worthless piece of machinery.
Cheap design .. no on/off button .. Epson claims high resolution with this printer .. .. don't even bother looking at specs .. this unit is truly a waste of money ..
Definately not a crown jewel .. or a printer .. on any standard.

Summary: Small, simple printer
Review: I thought that this printer was very easy to set up. The instructions in putting together the printer were easy. Also, the CD that is included makes installing the software quite simple, and it walks you step-by-step through installing the ink cartridges (which I'd never done before). The 6 page/minute is only on the fastest speed, however, which doesn't give the greatest quality -- the letters that it prints out at this speed have lines through them that aren't colored in; very unprofessional. On the normal setting it is a little slow, but still all right. It's quiet, which is nice. Okay, after actually USING the printer, I realized that, after only owning it for two months, and printing out a minimum of materials, the black ink ran out. Personally, I don't think thata "cheap" printer, in price, is that great if you have to buy an expensive ink cartridge for it every other month.

Summary: It's ok, not much more
Review: It's a cheap printer: What do you expect, really? I had difficulty getting it to work with my windows machine, but that was a problem with the USB port on the windows box, not with the printer. I bought this mostly as a stop-gap while waiting for the arrival of a newly-purchased laser printer to arrive. Print quality if reasonable, but the inkjets tend to clog when the printer sits unused for long periods of time (which mine does) and it seems to go through ink a bit to quickly for my tastes. Perhaps I'll dump this and get a better-quality printer at some point down the line, but for now it's acceptable.

Review: Pros: Nice printing
Cons: VERY VERY SLOOOWW - takes 2 minutes just to start - or make a paper jam.
Very high operation cost.
Very small ink cartridge
And finally, the software driver keeps changing the paper tipe. I would never buy again epson product, this printer gave me a headache.

Summary: Great little inkjet printer for home or SOHO
Review: The Epson Stylus 580 is a great little printer for home use. It has good image quality and is fairly faster than models of comparable price. Its small size means it doesn't take much space on your desk. USB is always a plus too.
