Epson Stylus Photo R800:CNet

The bottom line:
This excellent printer cedes its Editors' Choice crown to the Canon iP8500 but remains a great choice for photo enthusiasts despite some finicky printhead behavior.
"
Color photos look very good as well, and the printer can produce the neutral, color-accurate output important to enthusiasts as well as saturated, consumer-friendly photos."
"
excellent, sharp text and graphics"
"
fast photo printing"
"
no need to swap Matte Black and Photo Black cartridges."
"
It's very easy to change the individual ink cartridges (eight in all), and Epson provides a helpful instructional diagram with a list of the cartridges' manufacturer IDs."
"
It's easy enough to use, thanks to a swap-free cartridge lineup and a driver that has dual Advanced and Basic personalities."
"
the R800 has options for reducing or enlarging the source item; printing multiple pages on a single piece of paper, booklets, or double-sided documents; and adding a watermark"
"
flexible printer driver"
"
no PictBridge support."
"
Images printed on the R800 in the more-common RGB format looked gorgeous, with realistic textures, sharp detail, and strong, rich colors"
"
The matte black helped the R800 produce text that looked bold yet clean even at small sizes"
"
Slow print speeds"
"
The Stylus Photo R800 adds red and blue inks to the standard set of cyan, magenta, and yellow inks"
"
The R800 can print on rolls of photo paper either 4 inches or 8.3 inches wide"
"
Prints on rolls of photo paper"
"
The Epson Stylus Photo R1800 sets the standard for versatile, high-performance, large-format desktop photo printing"
"
Outstanding print quality"
"
The CD image quality is very good"
"
It's speedy and it produces beautiful prints"
"
fast"
"
quick"
"
R1800 uses red and blue instead of the two light colors, offering a broader gamut range and a bit more saturation of extremely bright colors"
"
extended color gamut"
"
extremely quiet"
"
prints on several kinds of media"
"
the combination of the standard cyan, magenta, yellow and black (CMYK) and with the new red, blue and matte black colours do produce an excellent result"
"
Epson's new eight cartridge Stylus Photo R800 only uses seven colours with the eighth cartridge containing a gloss optimiser used to create a uniform gloss finish across the entire print surface on glossy paper"
"
The R800 is quite versatile and capable of printing a range of media sizes from 6" x 4" to A4 sheets to continuous 210mm x 10m wide rolls of premium gloss photo paper, however, surprisingly it is neither PictBridge compatible nor does it have any memory card slots."
