Epson's Artisan 800 is a fabulous photo printer and a pretty good light-duty office machine.

Excellent photo printer; supports wired or wireless Ethernet; good quality scanner; useful touch-screen interface

Not the best inkjet document printer; some plastic parts are flimsy; requires expensive ink

Epson is one of the best-known names in inkjet printers; many home offices have one, and their Artisan multifunction line is quite popular. So a new model in this category is always welcome, but does the latest one live up to the company's reputation? ...

I would like to add that I had no problem whatsoever connecting the printer to my HP desktop PC. It took me approximately 45 minutes from the time that I unboxed the printer until the time that I installed the software and began making some test ...

Epson's Artisan 800 color inkjet multifunction printer has many tempting photo features. It's expensive--and not quite perfect--but it's still worth considering, especially for serious shutterbugs.

Very fast; easy touchscreen controls Prints on CD/DVD media; inks are cheap

Expensive; mediocre plain-paper quality Documentation could be more helpful

Most of the manuals are good, but I'll never understand why Epson buries the parts diagram in the troubleshooting section of the HTML-based user guide. A few of the Artisan 800's features aren't covered anywhere. And although automatic duplexing ...

The Artisan 800 inkjet MFP gives you plenty of features and capabilities, but it needs special paper for the best results.

All-in-one printers have gotten a bad rap. Sure, they can print, scan, copy, and even fax, but usually their talents are a mile wide and an inch deep.

Excellent print quality. Quiet and fast. Moderate ink cost. Built-in Wi-Fi and Ethernet

Standalone printing displays and outputs JPEG only. Cannot print text from usable black cartridge if any color cartridge needs replacement

Flexible printing options, built-in networking, and scanning and faxing capabilities-plus fun extras like coloring book pages and greeting card options-make the Artisan 800 a true jack-of-all-trades.

The Epson Artisan 800 makes perfect sense for those looking primarily for a photo printer, copier and scanner. Its plain paper print quality isn't great, but absolutely fine for personal and casual use, and its fully functioning fax machine and ...

7.8-inch touch screen ; beautiful photo prints ; wired and wireless network connectivity

Text on plain paper could be cleaner ; paper trays feel flimsy ; wireless scanning quirks

The device has two paper trays, one for holding up to 120 sheets of plain paper as large as 8.5 by 14 inches, and one for either 4-by-6 or 5-by-7 photo paper. You can choose between printing snapshots and printing regular documents without going to ...

All-in-ones (AIOs) that could serve in the dual role as home and home office printer were once rare. Now they're more the rule than the exceptionat least at the Epson Artisan 800's price level ($299.99 direct). The key question is no longer whether ...

Fast. High-quality photos. Prints and scans over network. Prints on discs. Ethernet and Wi-Fi. Standalone fax and copier.

Subpar text quality. Low paper capacity.

Suitable for home and light-duty home office use, the Epson Artisan 800 is a little weak on text quality but strong on features and photo quality.
