A3+ output, quiet, can take roll paper, can take third party greyscale inks, very smooth textures on photos, good office printer too, not that big.
Colour cartridge is 5-in-1 (but still more economical than most individual cartridge models), not fast, no borderless prints in OS X.
The Epson Stylus Photo 1290S produces stunning quality of photos, could be a little sharper, though. 5-in-1 cartridge is economical, if not efficient. Try it with third-party grey inks (Lyson, etc) and produce brilliant b&w prints to rival the darkroom.
Highly recommended for photo printing and general office printing, but is no speed demon on high resolution settings.
