Previous Epson Printer was a 1280 and lasted me almost 8 Years. This 1400 is outstanding for borderless 11x14 and 11.7x16.5 Photos! It is not listed as 11.7x16.5 is supported in Borderless format but it is, which made me very happy. Great Color & Sharpness. I print with Adobe CS3 with GREAT RESULTS. Would reccommend to anyone wishing to print in any size larger then 8.5x11
This printer is very easy to use and the printing is some of the best I have ever seen but you do have to have the right kind of paper. It will not take or print good photos on cheap or generic brand paper.
Excellent printer with very good resolution. Large prints are beautiful and print fast and easily. Software is straightforward and easy to install. Ink is expensive but well worth it. Prints well with all types of Epson paper and is a pleasure to use. Epson did put a lot of thought into this printer and incorporated many advanced feautures
A good overall printer. Fast printing speeds, very clear photo printing. Uses a minimal amount of ink in the testing cycle which is a real plus in an inkjet printer after running it through the head cleaning cycle. An extended warranty at the place of purchase is recommended, as injet printers can be tempermental.
The printer is very good because it prints on larger paper. At the same time sometimes it does not feed card stock or art paper as easily as lighter weight paper.
This printer is good for printing digital scrapbooking pages. The color and clarity are great. There are 2 down-sides: the cost of the ink and you have one choice for Epson 12 x 12 paper. If you want a glossy finish, you have to buy 13 x 19 sheets and then crop them. This can get expenses and is a pain.
To get prints which would last longer then those from the 1280, I purchased a Photo Stylus 1400. The biggest change noticed immediatly was the much faster speed of the 1400. On the other hand, ink costs increased noticably on a per print basis. The borderless printing continues to be a very desirable feature. I am part of a photography cooperative which holds group exhibits with most members using glossy paper from a wide range of sources. The Epson print quality is more than just competitive.
