 Great Value! September 6, 2008

This is the best hi definition photo printer for the buck.
The quality is superb and the ink lasts a long time.
Compared to other Epsons I've owned before, this one has a higher quality build.
Best DVD Printer for the Price August 23, 2008

Like others I only use this printer for printing DVD and CD labels on HP DVD-R 4.7GB 16x Inkjet-Printable 100 Spindle (DMJPW045) media. I'm fairly impressed with the printer, though the software packs a whole lot of utilities that I didn't really want and couldn't find a way to opt out of. But the main program, Epson PrintCD is really nice. It has a clean interface and works for just about everything I want it to do. If I want to get fancy, I could use another program, but, so far, I haven't found anything it wouldn't do. I've uploaded a couple of pictures that might help you decide on whether you want this printer or another. One last caveat, since I only use it for printing DVD's I turn it off when it's not in use. If you turn it on, and the little feeder tray is in the CD (upper) position, instead of the normal paper-feed (lower) position, you'll get a path error on start up. So be sure the tray isn't left in the CD position.
All-in-all a pretty good printer with a decent program. I think it's going to give good service for quite a while.
 Why To Not Buy A Epson R-280 August 8, 2008

If you are going to buy a printer I would suggest that you not buy the Epson R280. I like Epson printers and would suggest a R200,R220,R300 anything in the older models. The older models perform better the ink is alot cheaper and the R280 is a ink sucking monster. I have had one several months and have to buy ink on a regular basis and I don't print that much. I get about 20 CD labels per set on ink???? And right now I installed a new set and it will not read one of the cartridges. I still have the warrenty on it but I think I'll put it in the closet and find me a 200,220 or anything but the 280. Don't make the mistake I made.

Junk. Keeps telling me that Yellow and Black cartridges are not recognized/empty. Replaced them and they worked for 5 pages in about 1 week. Then empty again. I am not buying new ink again, I can get a new Canon for what this thing has cost me in ink.

We had been using our awesome work horse of a printer, the Epson 220 for a long time now and it finally went kaput! As a replacement we bought the 280 and all I have to say is, disappointing! Not only is it insanely loud when loading the paper it has POOR print quality, especially text.
We print a lot of stationery and the quality is sub-par for sure. Envelope printing was also "bleedy" looking and unclear.
We have no problem feeding 80lb cover paper through the machine, which is great, 100lb gets a little tricky. The 220 had severe paper feeding issues, especially towards the end.
If you are looking for a machine to print high quality, text or artwork this is NOT the printer for you. save yourself the money and trouble and go with a canon or some other printer, not the 280!
Inks are absurdly expensive and Epson makes it very difficult to purchase third party inks.
