Great Until It Just Dies [Posted on 2007-08-31]
AVOID THIS EPSON PRINTER. It works well until you need to replace ink cartridge. Then it fails. And when it fails, it is not just a minor problem... you get nothing but blank sheets, as ink tubes clog up. Epson recommends buying new ink, which does not work. No solution except Trash Bin or Epson repair service that costs more than buying a new printer. In fact, when you call their help line, the operator recommends purchasing another as a cheaper solution... and they will give you a $10 "loyalty discount". All the other reviews are right. This is a great printer if you want something that lasts only a few months. If you want it to work past warranty... choose another.
Read Ian Madfed's Review - Same here!!! [Posted on 2007-10-03]
To the letter, my review matches up with Ian's and I had the same thing happen with my C82 which I got Epson to replace with the C86. I don't normally take the time to write reviews, but unless you want a disposable ink vaccum, I recommend that you look elsewhere for an inkjet printer.
This model is a lemon [Posted on 2007-10-15]
I agree with the previous reviews. I never liked the way the paper fed into the printer but it gave quick sharp print jobs...until I had to replace the ink. After that it was all down hill. Thought it might be the ink so bought more. Nothing. Had a friend who works with and repairs printers look at it. After he tried everything he could he admitted defeat. THEN I looked up these reviews.....a lesson learned!
Piece of Junk Printer [Posted on 2008-11-26]
This price is WAY too much for this printer...I paid $200 brand new and it broke within 6 months. What a piece of junk.
Good for a short time only before nozzles clog [Posted on 2008-11-28]
The Epson Stylus C82, C84, and C86 are good for a short time only, maybe one year tops when purchased new. Then, the nozzles clog, the printer becomes useless junk. Epson no longer will repair these old models.
This creates a problem for those of us using older computers like my Apple imac OS 8.6, as there are no longer any printers available that work with these old computers.
