Well, I can’t really tell you what I think of the performance of this printer, because we just took it out of the box, were excited to test it out and print our first picture, and the USB cable to connect the printer with the computer (an odd one) is not included in the box! Why Epson do you annoy your customers like this? Is it really worth it for a few dollars worth of cable?
I received this as a gift, and I was all excited and ready to hook it up. I was following the instructions step by step until I got to the part where it says to connect the USB cable. That would be the USB cable that ISN’T included with the printer. No where on the box, on Epson’s website, or in the manual does it mention that you need to provide the USB cable yourself. The manual reads like it should be there. I was frantically looking in the box for something I missed, only to realize that I wasn’t mising anything. Epson was just too cheap to include a (…)cable that probably wouldn’t cost them nearly that much to include. But it looks cool, so I’ll be dragging my butt to Radio Shack tomorrow for the cable. (It also doesn’t tell you what kind of USB cable you need. You’re supposed to be psychic I guess.)
Today’s date is Jun 7, 2006 but I will pretend I am writing this review in Jun 2007. If you read the reviews of any epson printer product made in the past 4 years you will know that they clog, so as I am writting this review in 2007 my once well rounded epson cx7200 inks heads have clogged. I am out of the warranty period. I cannot find a 800 number for epson. They have told me that I need to run a head cleaning, so I go out and buy some inks for 60 dollars, then I run the cleaning and still nothing happens, the printer still prints out blank pages. They say to run it again and again which I do. They have told me I need to purchase a new one (they offer me a discount off 10 dollars of their latest one) or have this one repaired. PEOPLE….. DO NOT BUY EPSON PRINTERS learn your lesson!
Windows Vista has been post-RTM for months now, and Epson still doesn’t have a driver for this product? Pathetic.
I am presently looking for a printer to replace the CX7800 and am appalled to see what they are presently selling for….I got mine at Sam’s for $69.99 about 3 or 4 years ago. I liked the separate ink tanks because my grandchildren love to print stuff so I use lots of ink. Right out of the box it refused to print a whole page – would print 1/4 or 1/2, then cut off the rest. Lots of banding problems, scanned documents have a big black bar right down the middle. Tech Support — a joke. I limped by with it for this long. Now the window says “Call for Service.” I have reinstalled with new cable, etc. etc. but needless to say, will not be calling for service. Stay away from this one.
