Pass This One By! October 20, 2006

This offers the best of everything, but the printer is horrible. I've had this printer less than a month and two colors are out, and I haven't printed anything but black & white e-mail messages with almost no color. The printer gives good results but the ink seems to evaporate and the cartridges ain't cheap!
Everything else works, but Epson printers are problematic. Print heads are in the machine and they fail quickly leaving you with a fax, scanner and a costly repair for a printer.
Epson print quality is very good, but the company refuses to address problems that make their printers a throw-away. Buy these components separately and buy another type of printer.
This one was a gift and I consider it junk because I now have to replace the entire thing.
 Complete Waste of Money--a Big Ink Gobbler! November 14, 2006

What everyone else is saying about the ink cartridges is absolutely true. I have owned this printer for less than a month. I have printed probably about 10 - 15 color pages and 50-70 black pages on regular paper. The printer indicates that the black cartridge is empty! The black ink cartridge (T0691)costs ca. $17. This means the cost of printing (black) is about 30 cents/page! (It would be far cheaper to go to Kinko's...) I do not even want to think about how much color pages are costing--only after 10 -15 pages, all of my color ink cartridges are half empty. To make the matter worse, once the printer detects that one of the cartridges is empty, the printer does not function; Even though the last printed page looked perfectly normal and showed no signs of an empty cartridge. It simply becomes inoperative--until that supposedly-empty cartridge is replaced.
I had essentially the same problem with my previous Epson printer from the same series. I am also vaguely aware that there is a lawsuit either pending or ongoing against Epson on this issue: some of their printers, people say, are designed to give false readings on the amount of ink left (e.g. the printer gives "empty" signal even when the cartridge is not yet empty). This printer was given to me free of charge, but I am seriously considering not buying any new cartridges and buy a new printer by another manufacturer.
 What do you expect for 100 bucks? April 24, 2007

For the money, this is a nice little printer. No other printer in this cost range uses seperate inks and gives you a scanner, copier and photo-disc reader all in one. I've had Epson products in the past (an Epson Stylus photo 1280 and 780) and both eventually died after about 2 years. Both were way expensive (the 1280 was nearly 400 dollars) but performed well while sucking down ink like crazy. The cartridges were nearly 30 dollars each but I finally found knock-offs that were 6 bucks each. It took some searching. Now I can buy 12 buck epson cartridges OR 6 dollar knock-offs and if this printer dies in a year, so what? Most people spend that much in a weekend. I use a Mac G4 and it's getting harder to buy products that work still, so instead of a total computer upgrade, I was able to still buy an el cheap-o printer at Best Buy and get my work done. I'm not expecting great photo quality, just color roughs to show clients. And this printer is perfect for my needs. Every product has a niche and this one fits pretty well. For those of you who are whining about inks evaporating TURN OFF YOUR PRINTER WHEN NOT IN USE. The worst thing you can do is leave it on as it ruins the printing head which is basically the soul of the printer. Yup, it's noisy and when it sucks in a sheet of paper, it makes me jump, but hey.... it was cheap and it gets the job done for now. All you have to do is think back to the days when a low-res scanner alone cost over 400 dollars and you will look at this and smile.
No, I don't work for Epson, because if I did you can bet I'd make some improvements to their hi-end machines, they are total JUNK which are engineered to die after 2 years (think Ford Fiero) - it's designed obscelesence. And the whole "liar chip on a cartridge" scheme is just plain EVIL and wasteful. I would like to see some Epson exec's buried up to their necks in a large pile of used cartridges! :-)

What a waste of money! Consumer rip-off! Constant scanner ERROR messages. Not for business (presentations with photos)use. Will not scan documents to file, no matter what the directions say. Poor color on regular paper. $60.ink total replacements shockingly after 1 week!
Need to get replacement that works!

Very noisy. I've used quite a few ink jet printers over the years - this is , by far, the noisiest of the bunch.
In just over a week, the black ink was gone and I printed no more than 50 - 75 pages. I bought the CX6000 to replace a Epson CX5400 that died after 2 1/2 years of fairly heavy use. Doing the same type of printing, the ink in the 5400 would last from 6 - 8 weeks or longer, NOT just a week.
1/4 tank of each of the colored inks was used just to do a nozzle check. Later I printed some maps - the only color on them was a few outlines made with high lighter. Then I printed two approx 4 x 6 colored pictures. I was warned that there wasn't enough colored ink left to print another page like the one I had just printed. Pretty expensive pictures!
I returned the CX6000 and bought a Canon Pixma MP600 which got wonderful reviews here on Amazon and computer magazines. So far, I'm loving the Canon printer.
