Guest's Review of Epson Stylus Photo RX500

24th Jan 2008

Overall Rating

2 stars
  • Value for money
    2.5 stars
  • Quality
    4.5 stars
Good Points

Good colour reproduction
Fairly compact


Bad Points

In my opinion - NOT ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND
Expensive ink cartridges which as far as I am aware NO-ONE will touch for recycling!
Cheaper to buy a new machine than have one serviced!
"Service" button regularly comes up (after a certain number of uses) but can be re-set by user (not in the mannual - 'trick' found on web) and, thankfully, does NOT need an engineer to call.


General Comments

This machine is expensive to run and consumes ink by the gallon but, worst of all, as far as I am aware the cartridges cannot be recycled. See the small print on most cartridge recycling facilities - NOT Epson. Epson website does, however, offer a recycling service via any of their 'Epson Express' centres - just try and find one!
As a small business who endeavour to be as environmentally friendly as humanly possible, this printer counter-acts all our other efforts. It is being replaced, this week, and I would not recommend it to anyone who is even slightly conscious of their impact on the environment.
