This is a printer for economy and not for quality or speed. Its really easy to setup and the driver UI is good and offers useful presets. You dont have to worry about ink while you are printing. You can print to your hearts content.One of the first things you will notice while you are setting up the printer is it's lack of automatic calibration feature. This is a really neat feature of multi-functions from other vendors that let you print a calibration page from the printer and scan it. I was surprised to find Epson didn't provide any function like that. This means color copies have inaccurate colors and Text quality is sub optimal.There is also no control for copying other than a simple color and monochrome copy button. If you want to make multiple copies you have to do them one by one manually.The quality of text is not good for professional use like resume or final report printing, etc. The photo print is simply bad. You better not use this printer for any photos because they will look awful.If all you print is junk and personal stuffs or a printer for your school/college kids then it might be a good choice.Overall this printer can't match colors in color copying, provide no copy controls, has really bad photo output and only average text output even in high settings. It is not cheap either. I would not recommend it.
