Love this printer. Got it set up and going right away. Everything was updated automatically and it recognized my wireless network right away. It prints beautiful color photos and is fast on black and white text. There is nothing I do not like about this printer except for one very annoying step. I have to push in the tray each time I want to load the paper drawer. I wish they would have positioned the paper tray below the paper drawer. It does not affect the quality of the printer, it is just an annoying feature for me.
I live in Florida and NYC. I have just bought a new Epson WorkForce 545 for my second location, I have used one in the other location for 2 years and love it.
After difficulty coordinating machine to computer, internet and phone, everything has been very easy. Keypads are very logical, screen gives easy to follow commands and processes are very quick.
I love the features as well as the performance of the Epson line of printers and scanners. I have been using Epson products since 2002/3.. if I could do a commercial for Epson I definately would, on the spot.. I have not been disapointed by Epson. This printer even lets me print from my phone and has it's own email address.. very cool!
This all-in-one machine could not be better. It has everything I could want and then some. I highly recommend this product to everyone wanting an all-in-one machine.
I have owned many printers over the years and many MF machines. This is the most convenient, easy to setup and easy to use machine I have had. Worked out of the box, setup easy, found my network every time, even though I changed my network and wireless router three times this year. Only downsides - ink jet ink expenses if you print a lot, and no auto duplexing. For the price though, for home use, you can't beat it!
I have owned Epson printers for many years. The WorkForce 545 is probably a wonderful all in one printer, but it does not support any envelope other than a #10. Since I usually print A2 and A7 size envelopes, I am out of luck. Before purchasing, I viewed "How to Print on an Envelope" from the Epson video library, and the actor assured me that other sizes would not be a problem. I simply needed to enter the custom envelope size and choose plain paper and "print away". The finished product was smudged with ink and not satisfactory in any way. The video is simply not true.
So if you are planning to print anything but a #10 envelope, this printer and most in the Epson line up are not for you.
