Epson Stylus Photo R800


Summary: With more than a subtle clue in the model name, Epson's R1800 is basically a scaled-up version of its R800 printer, for A3 printing. Internet bargain-hunting aside, however, the R1800 is barely much more expensive than Canon's iP8500D A4 printer, making it an attractive proposition for digital camera owners who have 6Mp or more to play...

Epson Photo Stylus R800


Summary: Read the full review
Verdict: Not everyone needs or wants the archival ratings that pigment-based inks can offer, but if you do, this is your entry-point for seven-colour printing.
Pros: ; Pigment-based inks promise century-long image permanence; built in disc holder for printing directly onto CD or DVD blanks, excellent print quality.
Cons: ; Fewer features (e.g., no colour LCD or memory card reader) than similarly priced competitors.

Epson Stylus Photo R800


Summary: With eight ink cartridges, including red, blue, and two variations of black, the Epson Stylus Photo R800 offers a large color gamut and true photo quality. It's also designed for easy printing on CDs and DVDs and can function as your single, all-purpose printer. Read the full review
Pros: ; Photos are true photo quality; separate cartridge for each color; Epson's easiest approach yet for printing on printable CDs and DVDs.
Cons: ; No memory card slots, even for transferring files to your PC; does not do direct printing at all; relatively slow for standard printing.
