This printer has been a nightmare to set up. There was an out of date CD so I had to go to the Epson site to find appropriate drivers for Mac OSX Lion. The worst problem is that the printer has to be within 5 feet of the WiFi router to be used as a wireless printer. All of my other wireless devices register an Excellent signal across my home - but this printer must be 5 feet away from the WiFi router and then only registers "fair". I have to say I am very disappointed.

For an early 50's person who struggles with technology, this all in one is the answer to prayer. It was easy to set up, worked with my new iMac on the first try, scans photos very nicely, and takes up very little space. I am using it on my in wireless network. AWESOME unit.

I Like It

I like this printer. Setup was straightforward, if not a little long, but was smooth and uneventful. I liked the fact that Epson's software went out to the web to download updates. Bravo! It works as designed and prints pages very quickly. Oh yeah, I also like the ADF.
The scanner software works, but is a little slow to process. It requires a confirmation/close dialog at the end of the process that is confusing, but it does OCR.
I am not able to use the Scan to PC feature, from the printer itself, since it is requiring the USB cable that was used for the initial wireless setup. If I can operate scanning from my computer, why not from the printer.

I am trying to install anewWrokForce 545. I cannot get it to 'work'. I have read the Quick Guide, but WANT TO GET THE USER GUIDE. When I put my questions in "Troubleshooting" and "Help" I am told to refer to the User Guide and to check Device Manager. I find Workforce 545 very hard to use and am disappointed (and annoyed) by the ellusive "User Guide" references. The best course seems to be to return it the the store and get something that works.

Dream Comes True

It has been an idea of mine to come up with a way to print from another location in the world to my home printer. Epson has made this dream a reality. Now, I have the capabilities to not only create eye popping documents and they print out extraordinarily well, but my friends and family can print something out on my printer just by emailing them to my printer's email address. How cool is that!?! I love this printer so much that I convinced my employer to purchase this same printer for his business. The ink is less expensive than most printer's ink. Epson 545 is user friendly and it is a breeze to install on your computer. Epson is the new generation printing solution!

Epson WorkForce 545 All-in-One Printer

I have owned a Epson printer for the last 10 years. It finelly stopped working. I do a lot of printing of pictures ( have been very happy with the prints ) . My friends have always asked me what type of printer do I use. Well of course I had to buy another Epson! If it last half the time my other did I will be happy. This 545 is really nice and the fact that I can just buy the ink color I need is a great feature ( my old one, I had to buy the whole color set inorder for it to print ).
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love it!

I upgraded from an Epson Workforce 315 so I knew the Epson brand was reliable and trustworthy. The 315 was wireless, as is the 545, but Epson sure has learned a few things since the 315! The ease of installation is head and shoulders better, the quality of the completed print is better than on my laser printer at work, it's fast, quiet, and simple to operate. I'm so happy I decided to upgrade to the 545. We love it!

Not a happy camper

Tried to print business cards today on Avery 28877 biz card stock and it jammed the printer. Tried to top load it and the printer would not take the paper at all.
Now what? I absolutely need to print photos and business cards and brochures and this printer doesn't seem able to do it. Have read the instructions and there is no solution there.
