General Comments

I would not recommend the Epson C82. I would not even give it away. Although the printer itself is relatively inexpensive, the cartridges are very expensive and this printer flies through them. Also, once one cartridge is dry the printer will not print at all (even if you choose the "black ink only" option).

The printer is very loud - it sounds like it is about to or has broken each time you turn it on or select "print" - & is very slow to start. Once it finally starts printing, it crawls along.

My own is now leaving lines & none of the maintenance options will correct the problem. The printer is just over a year old & hasn't been used too much.

The only positive: photo quality is OK for the price range.

I've owned Epson printers in the past but wouldn't dream of purchasing anything from them again.
