Beautiful Prints
on June 21, 2015

The printer produces beautiful prints that are ready to be matted and framed. I'm pleased with the results. The only problem is my computer for some reason will not recognize the printer under devices although it will communicate with the printer. I tried updating the driver but that didn't work. I can still print but cannot setup as wireless.

GREAT PRINTER - POOR SOFTWARE
on July 14, 2011
Posted by: CHARLES SIX
from USA
I BURN UP A LOT OF PRINTERS AND INK AND, I HAVE PURCHASED PRINTERS FROM $200 UP TO $8,500. THIS PRINTER REALLY DOES A NICE JOB WITH COLOR AND QUALITY OF PRINT. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE SOFTWARE DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY. FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU SELECT "HIGHEST QUALITY" THE PAPER DEFAULTS TO AM A10 SIZE. IF YOU CHANGE THE SIZE THEN THE QUALITY FLIPS BACK TO STANDARD. ALSO THERE IS LITTLE EXPLANATION FOR DIFFERENT PRINT MODES. I FOUND THE MOST USEFUL INFORMATION ON "RED RIVER'S" PAPER SITE WHICH WAS WAY, WAY BETTER THAN WHAT IS ON EPSON SITE. SEEMS LIKE FOR THE EVERYDAY PERSON WANTING TO JUST PRINT A PIC, SOFTWARE IS FINE. FOR SOMEBODY THAT USE'S PS5, LR, AND SEVERAL OTHER HIGH END SOFTWARE PACKAGES TO GET THE PIC PERFECT, THE PRINTER SOFTWARE SHOULD BE JUST A LITTLE BIT HIGHER END OR AT LEAST OFFER AN AD-ON PRINTER PACKAGE.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This printer is overrating

I am a Graphic Designer I was looking for a wide format printer to manage different papers bigger than letter size format, and to be able to print over CDs, well this has all the characteristics however is not clear in the manuals for Mac operating system, is not clear when you try to print from a CMYK file (does not have this option active and does not support postcrip the best results are from RGB files). In Mac version you can not select the many options for Glossy ink, in WIN you can select between on, off, auto (this is helpful when you are printing in only some parts of the paper). In MAc is only on and off, that means all the paper or nothing so is at the end a wait of paper and glossy ink. And the Mac version does not have all the options and levels for the print quality. Really disapointed. I hope they can fix the software for mac.

Fast delivery, wonderful prints!

I couldn't believe how quickly my new R2000 arrived, even though I didn't choose the speedy delivery that would have cost extra. I ordered it on a Monday night and it was delivered Wednesday morning. The only problem I had with set up was that I first put the printer in the room where I thought it would be used permanently. Then I found out that it had to be hooked to my computer temporarily by a cable (cost extra) for set up. So I picked it up -- it's very heavy and cumbersome -- and took it back to a spot near my computer. Set up was easy. Then I carried it back to a room across the hall and one door down and set it up there. It started to print one page and stopped half way through. I checked the manual and it said that the printer had been placed too far away from my WiFi signal. Drat! So I had to drag it back and find a place in the same room as my computer. That wasn't the printer's fault, though, and now that its set up it makes beautiful prints. I'm just hoping that I don't have the paper feed problems that I had with my R1800.

We have used Epson printers in the past and have loved them. The Epson Stylus Photo R2000 has terrible picture quality. It works great printing documents or making copies but the photos have terrible color. We are definitely not happy with this printer.

Not for Mac Mountain Lion
on October 22, 2012
Posted by: Sharon
from Minneapolis, MN
I bought this printer for graphic printing, not for photos, and I print on matte paper, so I don't need the gloss optimizer, but there isn't any way for me to opt out of using that, as far as I can tell. My print settings and printer dialogue box do not look like the one in the booklet and that option isn't given. As a result, I used up all the gloss optimizer in a very short time -- when all the inks were still at about 90% capacity -- and then could not print anymore because that cartridge was empty. This is a pain when I'm trying to get cards printed for an upcoming craft show and I don't need them to be glossy anyway.
I have also been unable to get the colors to come true. I'm printing from Adobe Illustrator, and I tried various options for the color management, but none of them look very good, and the blacks in my black line drawings come out gray. Ironically, I have none of these troubles with my cheaper Epson printer, the Workforce 610, nor with my old PhotoStylus 1280, so I assumed I would be as happy with this printer as I have been with those. The Workforce printer can't handle heavy card stock, and even with the lighter card stock, which it will print on, I end up having to clean the printer heads often to keep the print quality up. I had thought that this being a photo printer and more heavy duty, it would give me consistently better print quality, but it's not working out that way. I know Epson wants me to use their papers, but I've never had to resort to that before, and a printer that is so fussy it won't print decently on generic paper is too fussy for me.

i loved this printer

When I first purchase this printer it printed photos perfectly, images were clear it was great. Now it won't work it has the dreaded two lights flashing at the same time problem and the only way to fix it is send it to Epson. This isn't a light printer either so it will cost a fortune to send it back.
So, off the printer would work I would definitely recommend it, however since they haven't figured out how fix the problem without sending it back, you would have to try your luck.
