    Epson stylus R series advice...

    Basically i use to own a R220/R240 cannot member which make but either way i replaced it with this crappy canon ip2XXX whatever it is called, not only does it leave grip lines every 1cm across the photos but the colours are just aweful! Now the epson i owned was amazing and printed beautiful photos...so i've concidered buying anouther epson, i've taken a look at the R340, but wondered is it going to print as good as my r240 did?

    Or is there others i should consider from the epson range? i thought about the C series but then i dont know how they compare to the R series...if anyone could shed some light that would be awesome thanks!

    i have two epsons both faultless, can highly suggest the sx515w all-in-one works flawlessly, also have the non wireless variant and thats great aswell.

    compatible cartridges are very cheap and its a very popular printer

    so the S series may be worth a look in aswell? damn you.....i thought i had narrowed it down XD im much more into the non all in ones..so ideally one which is built just for printing is better for me, i have a good enough scanner but i will consider them if the all in one can match up to the r360 for instance when it comes to printing photos.

    yeah i would say so, imo inkjet standalones have seem to dried up slightly in the market, nothing wrong with the allinones at all specially considering ink is dirt cheap on them.

    you dont want it as it will be due to trigger the end of life ink pad warning soon, i know i can salvage pads from other printers to replace them and have the tools to reset it
