I did not think this printer was still for sale. I have had the R200 for some years without using it much but even after replacing the yellow cartridge, as requested, it refuses to function at all. The machine no longer comes to life. Took it to a computer repairer who said it is not worth fixing. There seems to be some OEM hardware built in to these machines to stop them working after a certain length of time and/or use. I would call that cheating the customer. (read more)

Messy ink cartridge changes that finishes Before Total Ink.
Amounts have run out!?
Good sharp imagery using CMYK inks that can be replaced
Individually. For it's price band it has excellent Dpi definition.
All things considered this Epson printer follows on the well
Established quality product ethics at a reasonable price level.

Has given excellent service over several years. Great photo printer. Uses compatible inks, and therefore cheap to run. (read more)

This was a good printer for a while, but after about three changes of ink cartridges it has completely frozen up and won't print black at all (because the color ink is used up). No bypass of one color, don't recommend this Epson Stylus printer. (read more)

Excellent print quality when working, but it uses tons of ink, and paper jams started when printer was 1 month out of warranty, will not load any media, nothing is wrong with it visually and it's had light duty in the previous 12 months. VERY dissatisfied with it breaking down totally so soon after end of warranty, but then my HP scanner did the same, died for no reason at 13 months old *sigh* - I rate this printer 10/10 IF working (read more)

We were very disappointed with this printer!
The ink cartridges are very small and inefficient
We've had 3 Epson Stylus printers - this is the last
Weve now bought a CANON multi for 39.99 its fast, very quiet and more efficient!
BOOO Epson

I have had numerous printers and this R200 was the worst! I received the printer it had a major problem. Although it had a warranty, Epson refused to believe me. They proposed I follow a rota and write how many pages I have printed and how much ink used. With every phone call the day that the warranty finished grew nearer. Then when I had had enough they told me that they would not fix the printer because I had only 1 week til the warranty finished! The printer has now broken down on it's... (read more)

This is my third Epson inkjet printer which I bought primarily for the printing on CD/DVD function. The best quality prints are obtained by using good quality coated, glossy or satin paper (not necessarily branded) - I have found that all the Epson inkjet printers perform better in this way. I only use compatible inks and this has been fine. The best photo quality prints do take a while to print but I feel they are worth it. I have owned the R200 for about 2 years and the only problems have... (read more)

I am normally a HP person, but after a bad experience with my last printer I thought I'd try an Epson to see what they were like. I purchased the Epson Stylus Photo R200, and I have not looked back. It is easily the best printer I have owned to date (and there have been a few).
Perfect quality photo prints, and hardly any difficulty with the cartridges (my HP ones used to clot and block up in hot weather).
Not to mention how much cheaper the cartridges can be for the Epson.
I have heard a...

The Epson Stylus Photo R200 printer is the best printer i've ever had. I've always used HP printer and this was my first Epson and it is excellant. The picture quality is very good and with a price tag of £60 it's a bargain, if I was you I'd buy it or the R300 which is the same printer but has the LCD Picture screen and card readers. (read more)

I have been a long-time HP printer user and this was my first experience with Epson. What sold me on the Epson Stylus Photo R200 was the fact that I could manage the color cartridges independently as opposed to HP's combining the colors into one cartridge. (read more)

Right from the start I have been disappointed with this Epson Stylus Photo R200, and frankly it's hard to find anything good to say. Perhaps I am just used to my previous HP printers (Deskjet 840C and 845C - both bought for the same money as the Epson R200 over 2 years ago), but the Epson R200 printer just does not match them in print quality at all.
When you want to use this printer you have to physically switch it on, at which time the computer recognises a new USB device connected (HP...

The Epson Stylus Photo R200 is a Fabulous printer which prints quality photo's right up to the edge of the paper, 6 separate ink cartridges which reproduces photo's to a very high satndard it even has a CD tray to print CD labels, prtint speed is very good even on photo's and it draft printing is also very clear with no banding. A quality printer for its price. (read more)

I've started having the black smudge especially on CD's, small dots and smudges. I can't see anything mechanical wrong with it. So it must be the print head. I changed the black cartridge and it went away. Today I changed the cyan cartridge and it came back. This is my 4th printer in 13 years, my second Epson, none of them last. HP is the worst.
