Epson R200 Photo Printer Review & Specs


STYLUS PHOTO R200
Average User Rating:




Advantages
Prints on printable CDs/DVDs. Top notch quality borderless photos in all the regular sizes 4x6", 5x7", 8x10", 8 1/2 x 11" and also panoramic size 8.3" x 23.4". Uses 6 individual ink cartridges, so you don't waste ink by throwing away all the colors when only one is used up. 15 page per minute text printing speed. Prints a 4x6" photo in 37 seconds.

Drawbacks
You cannot connect your camera or memory cards directly to this printer, you must connect the camera to the computer. The computer connects to the printer by a USB 1.1 port. This is not a very significant drawback for such high quality prints at such a low price.
