Summary: Does a beautiful job on CDs
Review: I already had a printer and got this mainly because I was tired of using a magic marker to scrawl titles on my CD compilations. I am very impressed with how easy it is to print the CDs and what a good job the printer does. The CD printing software is easy to use. It comes with some insipid designs, but you can use your own images as background (and lighten them if you want) on the CD. You can also place your own images on the CD, not as background. The lettering (provide it's a single line) has an "auto-arch" option that keeps it concentric with the CD as you move it away from the center. The only drawback I've found is that it doesn't have a neat way of entering the track titles. Excellent capability at a good price.

Summary: not impressed
Review: I bought this printer and used it until I had to change the print cartidge. the ink holders are very flimsy and the clip broke without any undue pressure. needless to say it was not worth fixing. The picture were average but for the money were okay. replaced it with a epson r3oo and so far this one is much better made and the prints are great. price was reasonable too.

Summary: Fantastic Printer!
Review: I bought this printer because the last Epson I had was great too, and still is, it is just on another computer. This Printer goes far beyond my greatest expectations. This printer can actually print ON your CD's!!! It also does a wonderful job as a photo printer. Easy to use, quiet while printing, fairly fast prints too. I highly recommend this computer for novice photographers. The one thing you must do though for sure is, Read your Manual!! It will help you get the most from this wonderful printer.

Summary: Superb for printing on CDs and DVDs
Review: I bought this printer for printing on CD/DVDs and am very pleased with the results. The colors come out extremely well and sharp (when using epson ink) on full-faced printing. The included Windows software works very well. I have had no problems with it.

You will have to do some setup work like adjusting the ink amount and colors depending on the type of inkjet media you buy. I had to go through at least 10 CDs to get the alignment and color close to perfect. Once I did that, I had no problems. Order some sample packs of inkjet media before you buy in bulk. I found that Ritek media didn't work well with this printer (left a vertical line down the left side of the disc). I found BeAll, Samsung, Optodisc, Verbatim, and Dupez inkjet media worked well with this printer.

I would highly recommend buying this printer if you plan to print on CD/DVDs. It is well worth the money.

Summary: EPSON COMES THROUGH LIKE A CHAMP
Review: I do digital photography, web and graphic designs and make CDs. There is no need to spend thousands of dollars on a CD printer when you can get this printer for less...This printed a 5x7 at a decent speed and with 100% photo lab quality on the supplied Epson Premium glossy paper. I have owned Canon and Lexmark printers and bought an Epson 875DC and loved the 875 best of all. Then I bought this printer and just flipped over the quality of this printer at a reasonable price. I have never bought a high end printer because i have never had a need to because of the quality that EPSON offers in all its models. If i ever break down and buy a high end printer it will definitely be an EPSON. I will be amazed if the output could get any better.

Summary: Very Good Quality
Review: I have had this printer for about 6 months now and have been very happy with it. I used it while on a job search and printed out at least 100 resumes and cover letters, all with excellent quality.

Photographs look fantastic on Epson's glossy paper (only slightly less fantastic on other brands). I honestly think the pictures I print look better than the same pictures from the photo shop.

CDs too look excellent. I haven't been able to get the labels *perfectly* centered, but they are pretty close.

Minus one star for speed. While the quality is great, it takes a very long time to print a photo or a CD.

Summary: Nice prints, WATERPROOF! ink, easy to use
Review: I tried a canon 850 and got a drop of water on a print. The water destroyed the print. That moved me to the Epson. The inks will still last more than 20 years and they are waterproof. I held the first print under the faucet, with the water running, and it held up superbly. A few minutes later, after drying, it looked perfect.
The print quality is very good. We shoot family/nature photos with an Olympus 740 3 mg camera and the quality of 8x10 prints is very good. When people say 'wow' when you tell them you printed the photo at home that tells the story.

The software is easy to use. I particularly like the print management software since I use Adobe photo albumn and elements to handle all the photos.
