Epson Picturemate Charm Personal Photo Lab Inkjet Printer (C11CA56203)


I am so impressed with this printer! The pictures are amazing! The colors are so vibrant and I think the prints turn out better than they do from the drugstore. The reviews I read before I bought this printer stated that the ink cartridge that came with the printer ran out before the paper did, well my ink cartridge lasted for more than the paper so I had to dig into the extra pack of ink and paper to print more pics. I say if you are thinking about buying a printer to print 4x6 photos this is the one to have! I love it!

OUTSTANDING
Beautiful photos, good as any lab, maybe better. I import the pics into Photoshop and then manipulate them to go to the printer. Impressive, vibrant colors. Just remember to print a couple of photos each weekend to keep the jets from clogging up.

This is a great compact printer and the color is human like you could touch the person I recommend it and the ink lasts long

Epson MovieMate 72 High-Definition Projector, DVD and music player combo (V11H257220)

Epson MovieMate 72 High-Definition Projector, DVD and music player combo (V11H257220)


Actually, I like this projector better now than I did to begin with as I learn how to get the most out of it. Yes, it does have incredibly deep rich color and produces a sharp clear image. You can play count the pores and hairs even at 720p on an eighty inch screen so I won't repeat what others have said. It will produce acceptable color and image quality under average room lighting but to get the WOW effect, the room should be dark and the lamp set at "Theater black". I don't know of a projector that doesn't work best in a dark room. One very important point that just isn't addressed to any extent in any of the reviews I've read or in the manual that came with the projector is the fact that it is capable of displaying at 1080i. I'm sure others may but I see no difference between 1080i and 1080p. For Blu-ray, I connect my PS3 via HDMI and set the video output to 1080i and the difference is amazing. That goes both for movies and games. I also connect my DirecTV receiver via HDMI with the box output set at 1080i and get almost the same results. I have to say that I have never bought a product before that I was as completely happy with as I am with the Moviemate 72.

Great player
This system is very easy to use. The only downsize was the sound, you will need another set of speakers to add. Shipping was very fast. Overall I would recomend product and seller.


Sound Disappointment
Overall this is a fine machine. I was disappointed to discover that the only audio OUT capability is optical digital. That wasn't apparent in the features list on Amazon. I'd really like to have used my portable Bose SoundDock with this projector for outdoor movies but that's not possible using the projector alone. The only workaround is to connect an external DVD player and route the audio from the external player to my portable sound system. That said, the sound from the Epson 72 internal speakers is reasonably good. Setup was a snap. Picture quality, with both a standard DVD played by the Epson and a Blu-Ray disk using an external player connected to the projector with an HDMI cable, on my 100" screen is outstanding so it deserves a 4 star rating.


Epson MovieMate 72
This projector is wonderful! I bought it for the grandkids to enjoy but we enjoy it just as much! Very easy to set up! The picture is beautiful on a sheet or an inflatable screen! I rated the sound at a 4 star because we use this more often outdoors where it could be louder but indoors it's fine. If need be, we can always add additional speakers with no problems. A lot of fun bringing the family together for a movie night out under the stars!


Excellent Value
I was hesistant at first on purchasing this projector. Did my research and read comments from other customers and decided to plunged in. This projector did not disappoint! Easy to use, portable and the included speakers are a plus. The speakers are loud enough on a 20X20 room. The video quality is outstanding particularly the up-converted DVD combo. Unless you are a video enthusiast, the difference between the Blue ray and the DVD combo is unnoticeable. Hightly recommended if you are looking for a mid range HD projector.

Epson High-Gloss Premium Borderless Photo Paper, 4 x 6 Inches, 100 Sheets per Pack (S041727)

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010


We've been using HP inkjet printers for years and we have a pretty good stash of 4x6 photo paper that we had planned to use with our new Epson Artisan 710 printer. Unfortunately, when we printed our first 4x6 photo we knew immediately that something was wrong since the colors were extremely blotchy and it took the ink several minutes to dry.

I tried changing every printer and quality setting I could find, then it occurred to me that the problem might be the HP paper. I was skeptical, but I figured I would buy a pack of this paper just to test the theory since it is fairly inexpensive.

Anyway, I know it sounds crazy, but this paper completely solved the problem and we're getting beautiful prints from our new Epson Artisan 710 printer! If you're planning on using HP photo paper with an Epson printer; take my advice and give it away instead - then buy some of this Epson paper for awesome results!

As far as the quality of the paper goes, it feels just like the paper used by professional labs. It also has the right level of gloss to print photos that are sharp and colorful.

I highly recommend this paper for use with Epson printers.

Epson 100 pack Glossy paper
This is one product that I recomend because it holds the finish and dries instantly. I have used other products and they only smear after coming out if not placed seperatly to dry. i have bought this paper for the last three years and will keep on getting it over any other photo paper. I recomend it to everyone who uses and epson printer.


Great Price!
It was a great deal when I bought these...half price plus free shipping! It was exactly what I wanted.


Epson High Gloss Premium Borderless Photo Paper
I'm familiar with this photo paper, and use it for printing
cards. The PROBLEM was with the delivery! Although ordered on
November 9, it did not arrive until November 30. Far longer than
estimated on the Amazon website. If you need this paper fast, be
forewarned!


No different than what you get in the ink cartridge kit
Maybe I'm missing something but from what I can determine, this paper is identical to what you get when you by a replacement cartridge kit. I'm fairly sure of this because I purchased an ink cartridge kit along with this additional media. A number of reviewers have claimed that it is much better; perhaps they received something different from what I received...

Epson 98 Black Ink Cartridge High-Capacity (T098120)

Epson 98 Black Ink Cartridge High-Capacity (T098120)


I found something truly interesting regarding ink usage.
I have had many Epson photo printers, and up until now, ink usage has been an issue.
When I bought my last printer, it was an Epson Artisan 700. I had problems with it right away and Espon CS sent me a replacement overnight. Instead of another Artisan 700, they upgraded me to an Artisan 710. They also sent along an extra set of high capacity cartridges! I installed the regular capacity cartridges and I have never had a set of Epson cartridges last as long as these have. Usually when first set up, an Epson photo printer will use up to 1/8 to 1/4 of the cartridge to prime itself. After set up, the cartidges still showed up as full! After many prints, the cartridges still show as 1/2 to 3/5 full. I also notice that the printer does not do as many self-cleanings as previous models. I am convinced that Epson has revised the printer firmware to use less ink for maintenance.

the ink of the world!
We have a printer from epson but I am not sure it is on my profile? Can you check for me?! Well anyway.... I tried every other ink in the world but my printer did not like those. But when I got this brand of ink My printer went nuts! So if you want a good printer get this ink now!!!


Not Another Printer Ink
The quality of this black Epson ink is exceptional. The same holds true for its color counterparts. I have been printing on printable CDs as well as printing out photographs. All of the Epson inks reproduce colors very well.


Cheaper
I could have gotten the off brand cheaper. Service from here was good though. Got the item very quickly.


Black Ink for my Epson printer is great!
This is the high capacity cartridge of the black ink for my Epson Artisan 800 printer. This printer puts out fantastic printing, whether it's on regular high-whiteness paper, or glossy photo paper. This ink does a great job of laying down the lines.

Epson T007201 Black Inkjet Printer Cartridge

Thursday, June 10th, 2010


Unfortunately, I was not able to use this product because my printer that it is used in broke. However, when I called to see if I could exchange it, the seller got back with me very promptly and was very helpful. I have used this product for years and typically it is, I believe, the only ink cartridge that should be used in an Epson printer. Stay away from non-Epson inks.

Thank you,
Sandy

Epson MovieMate 60 Portable Projector, DVD and music player combo (V11H319220)

Epson MovieMate 60 Portable Projector, DVD and music player combo (V11H319220)


I shopped several stores and heavily on-line before I purchased this projection unit.

I wanted a projector for outdoors on my covered deck. The problem was could I find one that was going to be bright enough for an outdoor application where a lot of late afternoon sun would be. I must say I've been impressed with this unit. Yes there are times where the picture becomes a little washed out but overall it has been great. The biggest problem is when direct light is reflected onto the screen -- then it becomes washed out. During the most daylight times the picture is clear and bright. At night or in lower light the picture is excellent.

When first using this I had a standard definition source and was using RCA cables to carry signal to the projector. When I moved to a HD satellite box and a 25-foot HDMI cable ( Cmple Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable, 25 feet ) the picture improved dramatically and was not as washed out during bright light.

The sound from the box itself is very limited. The volume does not raise very high and the quality is rather flat. I hooked up a sound bar ( iLive ITP100B Two Channel Bar Speaker System with Docking and Recharging Station for iPhone and iPod (Black) ) with RCA cables to the satellite box ad was very pleased.

I'm projecting about 25 feet away from the screen and have sized the image (using a zoom setting) to about an 74-inch screen. I'm projecting onto a piece of white tile board that I purchased at a home store. The quality, detail, color, and clarity is very impressive.

Easy to use. A joy to watch.
Have owned this since late spring. Pulled it out of the box and was ready to go in minutes. I have only used it to play movies outside projecting on white sheets but the quality of the picture beginning at dusk is very very good. Much better than I had anticipated. We have had several "outdoor movie nights" which were a blast. I have only used it to project to a width of about 10 - 11 foot. Again, quality of the picture at this size is great. The speakers are adequate, positioning yourself behind the projector gives you better sound. Difficult to hear if you are sitting in front of the projector. It does seem to have all the ports that you could add on some external speakers which I am considering. One little perk that I wasn't aware of until I got it home was Epson's "extra care home service" that allows me to report a warranty problem via telephone, they ship me a replacement projetor, then I ship mine back...all at no cost. If you don't care about getting a factory refurbished unit instead of your original back, that seems like a nice touch and makes you feel much more comfortable with spending the money on this gadget. All in all, Am THRILLED that I made this purchase.


Excellent Projector!
Bought this for my husband for father's day. He loves it!! The picture and sound are amazing. We use it with an outdoor 120 inch screen, but we have also used it with a bed sheet. The picture is great either way. My husband has hooked our cable box to it and watched television on the 10 foot screen!! We use it alot and have no complaints at all!


Excellent All-in-one projector
I bought this projector 6 months ago and i got completely satisfied with it.If you are a movie lover try connecting your Blue ray player to it then u will feel like ur in a theater.Clarity is awesome.


Excellent Projector !!!! You can carry it anywhere !!!
This is an excellent projector, I recomend it !! The natural ratio 16:9 of the screen , and the picture quality placed it in a very top position for a good quality/price ratio !!!

Epson Black Ink
Product shipped quickly. Exactly as described. Best of all was price on genuine Epson Ink cartridges.


Best deal for the Price!!
BEFORE purchasing ink for your Epson, I recommend going to the Espon website and checking to see which cartridges will fit your printer. The newer printers, such as the NX415 will take more than one type. We do a lot of printing in black so these particular cartridges work great!!


Epson Ultra Ink Cartridges (68)
Installed the new cartridge and the printer produced great printing results. Easy to install and the value for the extended ink level was agreat deal for the price I paid. Checked other sources with price much higher and not original Epson product. Excellent buy!


Won't work in Epson CX7400
Even though the Epson CX7400 uses the 68-series high capacity color cartridges, it will not recognize the 68-series black cartridge. I noted that the CX7400 was not listed on the black cart box (but is listed on the 68-series color boxes) and thought, "Idiots, they must have made a mistake." They didn't. I did. Don't you.

This product was as represented. If you use the PictureMate you know what to expect. My only wish is that Epson would make a cartridge that would last longer and print more pictures and also that the nozzles wouldn't clog if you don't use it for a month or so.

Unnecessary addon
It is annoying that Epson does not sell cartridges alone, but blackmails you into buying paper even if you need only an Epson cartridge. Next time I will buy a cartridge from a non-Epson supplier that can offer just the cartridge you need, not an obligatory cartridge+paper combination.

Epson Stylus Photo 1400 Large Format Photo Printer (C11C655001)

Saturday, May 15th, 2010


I've previously owned the Epson 1200 and have had nothing but good results. The 1400 is a great update and I love the cd printing feature. I will admit that it may be a bit difficult to get quality prints your first time around, but once you buy epson paper, profile the printer with computer, and print correctly it's simply amazing. I too was concerned about ink consumption and high priced cartridges for 1400. However, I have found a revolutionary CIS (continuous ink system) which makes ink affordable, and from my experience gives same print quality. I can vouch for prints that are 6 months old, now will they last 100 years, only time will tell... Normally I wouldn't recommend these systems, but this one is different. There is no filling required, ink is available in jumbo cartridges at 100ml each which is inserted into an external unit powered by USB. If you're an advanced user and have already bought this printer or are planing to, i would highly recommend this system as companion to your 1400. You will save a ton on ink... You can find the system at[...] it's the IRIS model FC-002. However, if this is your first photo inkjet printer, then I would suggest to experiment with printing first and buy CIS system after you have mastered your printing skills.

Excellent printer
I've used this printer for the production of printable CD's as well as large format photos. Every job has been perfect. The CD software works extremely well.


Four months in, it works beautifully
I will weigh in here with a strong positive for this printer. So far, four months in, no problems whatsoever.

I use it for "special" projects, as the ink is indeed expensive. But I have been able to find original Epson cartidges on ebay in a decent price range -- circa for a set of 6, as opposed to 0 at Staples. I have not tried third party cartridges, as I am interested in obtaining archival quality if possible.

It makes beautiful, large color prints, and does so quickly, with no apparent loss of quality. The black and white prints have a color cast, but some more expensive Epson printers, with 7 or 8 cartridges, have similar if not worse issues in my experience.

I am matting and hanging some of the large prints, time will tell if the inks are color fast as claimed by Epson. Meanwhile at B000MLDPM2 for a sheet of 13x19 paper, plus a buck's worth maybe of color ink, plus for the matting, I consider the results to be a -8 bargain, and the pleasure obtained for such a small outlay to be great indeed.

Epson Artisan 710 Wireless Color Inkjet All-In-One Printer (C11CA53201)

Friday, May 7th, 2010


So far so good. It's been about 12 years since the first Epson printer I got. I don't remember the model of that one, but it changed my life- I decided to become a digital artist when I saw the quality I could get for the pittance I had spent on that old printer.

This current printer, the Epson Artisan 710 "all-in-one", doesn't disappoint in the least. The output quality is better than ever, and the fact that I can finally get photo quality output combined with a scanner (and copier, of course) is just wonderful. I especially like the automated CD tray for printing on blank CDs. The older style in the 300 and 380 series was annoying at best.

I've had HP and Canon "photo" printers, but they always left a lot to be desired in their output quality.

The main complaint with this printer is of course the cost of new ink cartridges. Nothing new here though. And, like all of the Epsons I've had this one seems like it will fall apart if I stare at it too hard. But the fact is, it doesn't fall apart. It's constructed of light and cheap materials, but everything seems to be perfectly machined and aligned.

Excepting these two concerns, I say 5 stars across the board.
