Epson Stylus Photo R280 Photo Printer

Product Description:
Part of Epson's new HiDefinition series, the Stylus Photo R280 computer printer goes far beyond. In addition to fast up to 37 ppm printing for text on standard letter paper, the R280 is an affordable entry for optimak graphic and photo printing. Using some of the same technology that professionals rely on to produce beautiful and marketable art, Epson's new Ultra Hi-Definition printers set a new standard in the photo printer category. A key component of the new product line is Claria ink, the latest breakthrough in Epson's long line of ink innovations, delivering superior image quality with Ultra Hi-Definition richness, depth and clarity. With Claria ink and a newly designed print head, these products deliver the fastest photo print speeds of any previous Epson model, and print longevity that is superior to lab photos. The Ultra Hi-Definition product line offers a variety of convenient and user-friendly features, such as automatic photo correction, which automatically adjusts improperly lit photos and corrects skin tones for better-looking prints -- it's like having a trained photo lab technician inside the printer.

Rating: - CD Tray Feed Issues
I purchased this printer to only print on printable CDs. This was to replace my old Epson R200 which I also only used to print on CDs. This printer has the same CD tray feeding issues. When you first use the printer to print on a CD you must put the CD on a special tray and feed it into the printer while the paper tray is in the CD position. Then when you print the printer automatically tries to feed the tray into the printer and start printing. Unfortunately the first feed always failed on the R200 ... Read More
Rating: - Beware the cost of cartridges
I got this printer about a year and a half ago at a greatly reduced cost as part of a package when I bought a new digital camera. However, I would not have bought this on my own because it uses six separate color cartridges that do not last that long and are not cost effective to replace. Here are my specific comments:

Purchased this printer because it would print CD/DVD covers, and it does a great job.Epson Software works easily and guides this non-technical girl seamlessly thru all print jobs.Only four stars because when it prints, it is loud.
