"Very servicable printer - Recommend"
Pros: Quieter, more vibrant colors than Stylus 2200
Cons: A little slower printing than Stylus 2200
Summary: As a Network Administrator, I forsee most IT purchases for my company. In this case I bought the Epson Stylus R2400 because our Stylus 2200 broke down and our design department needed a replacement. Based on reviews from CNET as well as recommendations from a client, we purchased this printer.
PROS - Granted, I don't use the R2400 all the time but I from what I seen and done it's a very good printer. The new K3 ink cartridges produces a much better color that it's predecessor. This I've seen and has been reported back to me by the design crew. Also the printer itself is relatively the same size as the 2200, but prints much more quiet. The manual feed tray is always a nice addition, as is the extra part for the roll feeder. It is network, USB, and firewire compatible. Setup was really easy, and I had it networked within about 10 minutes to all 3 computers in the department. As with any purchases I would recommend though an extended warranty. The 2200 we found had numerous problems with inks and such. This so far has none of those issues.
CONS - The only real issue (and even this isn't that bad) is that it seems like it printers a little bit slower than the 2200. So if you found the speed on the older printer bad, then you might not be excited to read that. But really, I don't think the speed is all that bad. That is the only issue thus far we've had, and we've had the printer going into it's 2nd month now.
CONCLUSION: The Epson Stylus R2400 has been really a well made upgrade by Epson. If you're a person printing photographic images are just looking for a rich prints I would highly recommend this printer.
Cheers!
