I am very happy with my purchase of this. I have had this for 3-4 months now and not only did it come on time, but it came a few days earlier than expected. This is very easy to set up, and very user friendly. It is fast, and the pictures are beautiful. The ink has lasted very well too, I am just now getting low. I have not had any problems with this whatsoever.
The printer works very good and I found that it is easy to use. I was able to find information through Epson's online help for an older computer's needs for the proper driver. I do not know enough about the process of the manufacture of ink to understand why a new replacement is close to the price that I paid for the entire printer including ink that I bought on sale. I do know that my thoughts about the ink was also the subject of a news broadcast on a major TV station in my area with that same question with, we have you now as the answer.
This printer has worked extremely well. I have probably printed well over a thousand sheets and greeting cards without trouble. If the paper ever jams, it is very easy to clear.
MY EXPEERIENCE WITH THE EPSON WORKFORCE ALL IN ONE HAS BEEN GREAT! HAD AN INITIAL PROBLEM BUT IT WAS CORRECTED BY THE PROVIDER, NOT EPSON. A NEW CONNECTION WAS MADE AND NOW WORKS FINE.
Speed, Sound Level,Reliability, Print Quality all excellent. Ink is water and smudge resistant. Works fine as a copier. Cannot import scanned pictures into my apple computer (problem may be me). I don't use fax feature.
I have always been partial to Epson printers,as they were , up until now good values. This miserable printer has changed all that! It cannot print photos without lines across them. The inks run out quickly and are expensive. I have been unable to get most features working. This is one of the worst printers I have ever owned!
I have used my Workforce 545 for some time now and have not had a single problem. It works flawlessly, I would recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect printer, scanner, fax, copier. For the price it can not be beat!
