General Comments

I will never, ever, buy another Epson printer. I had seen the quality of a colleagues Epson and was impressed, so I bought the Epson Stylus Photo 830 inkjet printer.

You spend your life cleaning the heads and using ink (and expensive paper). The cleaning utility is obscurely hidden in the software. It is slow, and the colour balance is usually poor. By contrast, my HP 5550 that is only three colours and black (Epson 5 colour and black) is fast, reliable, and gives better prints. I shall probably just throw it away soon.
