If you purchased an Epson on or after Apto then you qualify. They have agreed to settle to avoid fees. "Class action lawsuit against Epson because their printers would notify user that ink cartridge was empty when it wasn't and halting use of printer forcing them to buy a new cartridge. So I am not planning to give Espon another try. The second problem I had with Espon was the Engineers in Espon tried very hand to make sure that you First, it is not easy to refill Espon ink set (at least not as easy asĬanon). But I gave up my R200 after its original set of inks ran I have used both EsponR200 and Canon6000D. The only thing better about my Epson is that it's easier to get cheap generic ink for it - the new Canon iP4200/5200/etc are very new and generic ink doesn't seem to be available yet. As for the iP5200, from what I've seen it's basically the same as the iP4200 with more nozzles so it prints faster (same resolution). I don't know how the R200 compares with newer models, but between the incredibly high quality of disc prints on the iP4200, the clear ink carts (so you can see how much ink is really left), oh, and did I mention it also has a bottom tray (I keep 4圆 photo paper in it) and it can do auto-duplexing? I don't think I'll be using my R200 much anymore. When I printed out my first disc I was literally stunned at how much nicer it looked (though YMMV depending on what kind of graphics you use, of course). However, on CDs/DVDs, the iP4200 is clearly MUCH higher quality that the R200. Printing text and photos, it seems about on par with my R200 despite using fewer colors of ink (R200 uses cyan, magenta, yellow, light cyan, light magenta and black - the iP4200 has cyan, magenta, yellow and two blacks). I recently got a Canon Pixma iP4200 and modded it to print on discs (basically this means removing one small piece of plastic, hitting some buttons on the front before installing the driver, and getting a CD tray on ebay). Aside from having to help push the tray in at the start of a job (from what I've seen most people with these have this problem sooner or later), it's worked fine. I've been using Epson stylus color and stylus photo inkjets for many years - and never had one fail yet.

Speed - not terribly fast - but I always print in top quality mode since I care about how it looks and am not in a big rush.ĭifficulty and Expense of Mod - no mod's here - ready to go out of the box. the "yellow" cartridge started misbehaving once - but a single cleaning cycle cleared it up. Maintenance - so far no significant issues. I plan to try some 3rd party ink cartridges when the current cartridges run out.Įase-of-Use (especially when printing CD/DVDs) - very simple, using the program supplied by Epson with the printer. ink cartridges are expensive (which I expect is why the printers are cheap?). Usage Costs - ink usage seems typical for an inkjet. Quality - printed output quality is excellent. I have an Epson R320 - which I believe is essentially the same as the R340 except for the location of the small color video screen.
