Epson Expression Home XP-5200 Wireless Color All-in-One Printer

This printer replaced an old Epson printer. This model makes the old printer primitive as it is quieter and faster when printing documents or making a copy of something. The Epson Smart Panel App allows easy access from my iPhone to have the printer print out a pdf file or document. I can be at the kitchen table and have the printer work when I am eating lunch. Worth the money.

First time I used an Epson printer. I had a lot of work to complete with the scanner and printer. Very efficient and fast. I was able to connect to my laptop and both of my smartphones very easily.

I've only had this printer for half a day, but I'm happy. My old printer was a 10-year old Epson; I was happy that I could replace it with one that has the same small footprint, and that works pretty much the same way. I liked the the old scanning software and that's very similar. The non-touch screen display on the machine is similar, so that's not a problem. I was so anxious about installing it, but the instructions were clear for using the controls on the machine, and it all worked. The small print on my crossword puzzle is nice and crisp.

I just gotten a few days ago and it was easy to set up. Don't like how it prints out like it makes the font seem wider or too small but it will do as I have had a HP printer for a good while. I do like the features for scanning, be able to double side print and just overall what I need right now for classes.

Sometimes it prints great other times it takes 30 minutes to print one page or it will even give an error halfway through printing. I can't figure out why. My last Epson was great. Maybe this one is just defective. I'm probably returning today for a new one because this one clearly has been having issues for over a week now. Can't work like this.

I've just had the printer for a few days. It started off ok but after 10 printings the quality went downhill with broken lines and poor color and resolution. After an ink head cleaning the quality returned. But now after few print jobs the ink is low notification is coming up which is ridiculous. Not impressed.

I wanted to love this printer, it's more compact, space saving than others…I like the screen and the ease of setting up and using, and the functions. WiFi setup is easy and printing from phone via Bluetooth is as well. What I do NOT like is having to keep buying ink because the cartridges hold very little and if your color inks are low, it won't even print in black…you have to replace the color inks to print in black. Called Epson and they said it's because black ink uses all the colors. Which is the most ridiculous thing I've heard. None of my HP printers would stop printing black if the color was out (I never replaced the color since I don't use it) I use this for home business use and print maybe 10 copies a month. The fact that I've had to purchase 6 black cartridges and 3 sets of the colored ink (when I don't use colored ink) is absolutely insane and expensive! Too late to return so I guess I'm posting on marketplace. ***Photo I posted - brand new black cartridge but won't print due to the colored ink being gone or low AGAIN when I'm not printing in color.

I bought this NON-RETURNABLE PRINTER as a substitute for a large printer which I have. However, it was too heavy for me to pick up, much less be portable. I did not realize the item was non-returnable until I realized I couldn't use it and needed to return it. I have been trying to give it away to someone who could pick it up and needs a new printer. No luck so far. It was a waste of my money. That said, I hadve no idea whether it is a good printer or not because I had my son put it right back in the box in the back end of my car. Last resort I will donate it to Goodwill or Salvation Army. If an item is non-returnable it should be clearly marked on the website in large print. Disappointed in Walmart for selling this.

Awful printer do not buy. I'm a designer with tech savvy experience. Can I get this thing to work and neither can my tech person at Clemson gets to work?

Could not complete set up of printer because Epson ink cartridge didn't have sufficient ink. I ordered overnight Epson ink from Amazon. Spent 1.5!hours total on Epson support. Rather than wait for them to ask Walmart to send me ink, I asked if I could use the ink I ordered. The printer consumed the ink. I needed black ink after printing six pages. The help desk needed proof of purchase. No problem I sent all my online information for purchase. Not enough. I'm sending a k to Walmart! Don't waste your money on XP 5200
