    "Good quality prints but ......"

    by skiziks on January 14, 2007

    Pros: Prints on CDs and DVDs

    Cons: Features and Support Questionable

    Summary: The R380 does NOT recognize all standard SD memory cards. I have new SD cards that work in my camera, my card reader, several hp printers, and at least one other Epson printer but do not work in the R380. This printer is not compatible with Mac's iPhoto. To print borderless from iPhoto the image has to be cropped first, then you need to revert to orginal after printing. Support will not investigate into why the R380 card reader refused to recognize all major memory cards. Epson's on-line store's return/exchange division is resisting exchanging my R380 for one that works as advertised. Do not buy from the Epson on-line store. I made a huge mistake, learn from it. It also wastes ink every time it is turned on by pumping ink into a pad that must be replaced by having it serviced when it becomes saturated. My calls to Epson are answered with a recording telling me that my call will be answered in 56 minutes. E-mails to support take two days for an answer and they are not sympathetic or helpful. Keep looking.

    The six ink tanks are almost empty.

    I think that I could squeeze a couple more 4x6 pictures out of them, that would total about 30 4x6 borderless pictures from one set of six ink cartridges.

    The cartridges cost about $14 each. $84 + tax to replace all of them. That means that each picture cost at least $2.80 plus the cost of the paper.

    At the local Mart store i can get 4 X 6 printed for about .12 cents a photo for 30 photos that would cost $3.60 for all.
