Editor's Pros & Cons

PROS:
This solid color ink jet printer is known for its true text printing speed, which is attributed to the double black ink cartridges. It uses four-color, drop-on-demand, MicroPiezo ink jet technology. The maximum print resolution is 5760 x 1440 dots per inch, which is very impressive for a home office printer. The text printing speed of the printer is two times faster when we compare it with other ink jet printers which cost more than the Epson WorkForce 30 printer. Features like Auto Photo Correction and Epson Vivid Color are responsible for the superb printing quality of pictures, which you can get in maximum size of 8.5 x 11 inches. In addition, Epson easy photo print software assists you while editing, printing, and managing your photos. Its low-price is a tremendous asset when we consider it against other printers of the same category; also, giving it the title "budget-conscious".
Epson 30 can handle a broad selection of paper sizes, from as small as 3.5 x 5 inches to as large as 8.4 x 44 inches. This printing device will work with various Operating Systems; windows XP professional, Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows Vista. You can also utilize it with Mac OS X versions 10.3.9, 10.4.11 and 10.5.x., but some features like double-side printing do not work with Mac.
The printer only utilizes 15 watts while functional and 2 watts during sleep mode. Having a dimension of 17.1 inches in width, 20.1 inches in depth, 11.9 inches in height, and 8.6 pounds in weight; it is easy to move and requires minimal work area. Input tray of this printer has a capacity of 100 papers, which facilitates printing without you having to reload again and again. Its interface connectivity is via high speed USB 2.0. The package contains the printer, starter ink cartridges, manual, power cable and drivers; USB cables are not included in the package.
CONS:
It is just a printer, instead of scan and fax, which limits its functionality. If you want all in one sort of printing machine, it’s not for you. Some people think that it consumes more ink as compared to other printers. The printer facilitates no networking capabilities; it may be possible to share the printer through the main node, but does not incorporate Ethernet or Wi-Fi capabilities; Not really ideal for enterprise-sized organizations.
INK/TONER NEEDS:
It uses DURABrite Ultra pigment ink, which is resistant to water, smudge, and light, as well. In addition, it comes with individual ink cartridges, which are easy to use, refill and replace. The colors available in DURABrite Ultra pigment ink are: Two 69 Black Ink cartridges; One 69 Cyan Ink cartridge; One 69 Magenta Ink cartridge; and one 69 Yellow Ink cartridge are available in the box.
Two standard black ink cartridges can produce 485 pages, whereas, high capacity double black ink cartridges can print 740 pages. The number of pages an ink cartridge can handle will almost always depend on the complexity, size, and colors used in the documents. Standard-capacity Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow, can print about 355 pages per color cartridge. The speed of printing may vary with complexity of documents. It is recommended to purchase original cartridges to refill your DURABrites. The use of any other ink may affect the ability of the printer and quality of documents.
