Epson Stylus Photo R200 Test Report

The R200 photo printer was thrifty with ink, and its photos looked wonderful--but its plain-paper output wasn't impressive.

Service and support

Epson Stylus Photo RX500

Easy to use; reasonably priced; excellent scan quality; good photo print quality; useful slide/negative scanning adapter.

Slow print speeds; only fair text and graphics print quality.

The Epson Stylus Photo RX500 is an excellent all-in-one photo printer for digital-photo enthusiasts who need both a film scanner and an occasional photocopier.

Epson Stylus Photo R2000

The Epson Stylus Photo R2000 ($499.99 direct) is, for the moment at least, the least expensive of Epson's high-end, near-dedicated photo printers, defined as printers that are meant primarily for photos and graphics, even though you could use them for...

Fast. Low price. Impressively high-quality photos and graphics. Prints on cut sheets up to 13 by 19 inches. Fine art papers available

Lack of a rated duty cycle makes it unclear how much you can print per month without shortening the printers' useful life

The Epson Stylus Photo R2000 offers speed and output quality suitable for professional photographers and graphic artists at a price suitable for serious amateurs.

Epson Stylus Photo R200

Epson seems to be on a crusade to make printing on CDs and DVDs a standard feature across all price ranges of ink jets. Witness the Epson Stylus Photo R200, a $100 (street) model with CD-printing features heretofore found only on $300 models. The R200...

Produces very good photos and prints; easy setup; prints to CDs

Slow at times

The Epson Photo Stylus R200 is one of the better choices for a tight budget.

Epson Stylus Inkjet R2000

If you're looking for a pro photo printer, seriously consider the Epson R2000.

Decent detail performance; Prints better photos than peers in its price point.; Can print on a decent range of media

Not as versatile as its big brother, the R3000

If you’re looking for a pro photo printer, but don’t want to have an initial sunk cost of near $1000USD, seriously consider the Epson Stylus Inkjet R2000 for your printing needs, as it offers performance at a price point that won’t destroy your bank...

Epson Stylus Photo R200

In general, I don't write reviews of printers unless there's really a compelling story to tell about them. The Epson Stylus Photo R200, like all Epson R-series printers, combines standard photo-quality printing with the ability to print directly on...

Epson Stylus Photo R2000 photo printer

Epson R2000 review: An A3+ photo printer with Wi-Fi, and it can print panoramas

Excellent print quality ; Up to A3+ sizes and roll paper support

No roll cutter ; Inks are expensive (although not for a photo printer)

Epson's Stylus Photo R2000 is capable of handling the needs of photography enthusiasts who want to print their digital images in A3 or A3+ sizes. The roll paper feed means panorama printing is a breeze (although there's no automatic cutter to ensure...
