Summary: Epson R1800
Comment: Excellent product. Worked perfectly out of the box. After tweeking it, got excellent prints from original artwork. Color match was very good. In order to prevent the ink from drying out I used the nozzle check every day. This uses very little ink and is a handy feature. The professional artists whose work I reproduce in prints are delighted with the results that Epson produces.

Summary: Good enough for serious photographers
Comment: I chose this printer after talking with Epson's technical service people. For those who want to print in color, it is the top choice for quality (other than their commercial line over $1,000.). The main features of this printer are the new extremely small ink drop size and the fact that it uses pigment-based inks rather than dye-based inks used in the lower end of the line and almost all competitive machines. The pigment-based inks do not fade when exposed to light and are considered "archival". There is no need (as Consumer Reports suggests) to reprint your photos every 1 or 2 years. These prints will not fade for 200 years. That's good enough for me!

Summary: I WILL NEVER BUY EPSON AGAIN.
Comment: I don't care paying for the ink which already caused a lawsuit against epson, but if I have a document to print in black and I need it only to be reproduced in black and white, why in the world would not allow to print it if I have a brand new black in cartridge if the cyan is empty. You have to have ALL cartridges full in order to print black only. Nice to know their phliosophy but I don't think will earn them more customers.

Summary: Epson - not really a brand name you can trust.
Comment: Buying an Epson printer really is more about whether you trust the brand name or not. Most tech experts realize that printer companies make more money selling the ink cartridges than they do selling the actual printers. However, a reasonable expectation is that a printer will use all the available ink in an ink cartridge, before refusing to print paper. Epson recently made a settlement in a lawsuit that alleged they required ink cartridges to be replaced before their ink was fully consumed. If you purchased an Epson printer between April 8, 1999 and May 8, 2006, you can register to receive a $45 Epson store credit. I owned an Epson with this same problem, tried to use generic ink cartridges to save money, and their cunning design caused the printer to stop functioning altogether. Basically I was able to print a few hundred pages before having to put the printer in the garbage can, a $200 loss. If you are keen on losing money, then definitely go with Epson.

Summary: Epson Stylus Photo R1800 Inkjet Printer
Comment: What a tremendous piece of machinery that has been engineered and manufactured to prefection. I have and still use an Epson R200 for my other photography printing needs. The R1800 now allows me to make larger and higher quality prints for public display and commercial use.
I debated between the R1800 and R2400, but ultimately selected the R1800 as it was the better tool for my need. I do think that Epson has beat its competitors with high-end, "prosumer" quality photographic printers. The total cost of ownership (TCO) of the printer was also a consideration, as was the availability of quality non-Epson products for the R1800.
I would highly recommend the R1800 to anyone who has need for a professional grade photo printer. If the need is more quality black and white than color then consider the R2400.
Amazon offered the best legitimate deal, including shipping, handling and post purchase support for this and all their other products. Shop wisely, shop Amazon.

Epson Stylus Photo R1800 quickly creates large, archival quality glossy and matte photos worthy of display. Experience the rich, true-to-life colors and subtle detail that's evident in every image. It's all possible with Epson UltraChrome Hi-Gloss Inks, plus an industry leading resolution and ink droplet size - the same innovative features that made the Epson Stylus Photo R800 a resounding success. This printer's impressive 8-color individual ink system, which incorporates red and blue inks, means you get a wider color gamut for incredibly vivid photos. Its separate matte and photo black ink cartridges are integrated into the system as well, so you get the deepest, darkest blacks on matte paper, and brilliant results on glossy paper automatically. Finally, the unique gloss optimizer makes glossy prints look like they came from a traditional photo lab. And, since the inks are pigment-based, you can be confident the color and detail will remain true for up to 200 years. The Epson Stylus Photo R1800 delivers studio quality results on a wide variety of media and in eight popular borderless sizes - up to 13-inches wide, as well as panoramics up to 44-inches long. Best of all, the Epson Stylus Photo R1800 speeds through every project - so you can quickly print stacks of high-quality photos. And, its expertise goes well beyond the art of photographic prints. This photo printer makes it easy to add that special touch to your portfolio with professional quality printing on ink jet printable CDs and DVDs.
