The Epson Artisan 837 is probably more than the average user would need in terms of features and quality, but does it all very well. Color photo printing quality is excellent and does 4x6" pics as well as the drug store digital photo printing when using the same quality paper. I have also used some cheap thin photo stock which even provided very good results (although longevity may be the issue with this paper). The scanning capability is excellent, and the included scanning software is easy to use, as is the character recognition (OCR) capabilities for scanned documents. The document feeder for scanning and faxes is a definite plus -my last all-in-one didn't have this and it was sorely missed. The ability to copy from the touchpad with computer off is also handy, and the copy quality is excellent. I also like that you can print from memory sticks and cards without having to run everything through a connected computer (this was a major drawback to my last printer/scanner/copier).All in all, the Epson Artisan 837 is extremely easy to use and intuitive for both the touchpad features and included software. The output quality is excellent (and adjustable in terms of resolution and color/grey/B&W). On the higher settings, I have reproduced older developed 35mm photographs with no apparent loss of quality. If I take the time to scan them into Photoshop or PSP first, some of them even come out better than the originals.

I just got this printer after being with HP for a long yet not very pleasant time especially when it comes to printing photos. I have an iMac and you should know that there is a warning that came with the box indicating that the CD in the package is not good for the latest Mac operating systems and direct you to the web site. I did and the set up was the easiest I ever had. Then the real test which is photo printing. I got the lines across the print two out of four prints but the colors are excellent. I referred to the guide which recommended few things one of which is the alignment. Now that is a tricky thing because of the poor clarity of the instructions. When you activate the alignment function from the printer display it prints a pattern and then it asks you a question that is not very clear. Here is what I found. You will have four sets of patterns of 9 squares each and then it asks you for the number that matches the good example in the picture. It is not the number of squares but actually the ID number of the best square in the group. After a couple of confused responses I got it and responded correctly then printed a picture that came out very clean. All I can say so far is the pictures are very sharp, the 4x6 is amazingly fast and the 8x10 (A4) is a portrait quality. I don't know why but borderless options produce the best result. I think for the money it is a great buy. Now about the cost of ink and paper, this is an issue with all brands, it is like battery manufacturers that give you the toy for free and get their money from the batteries.

My previous printer was a six year old Epson Stylus RX580 printer. I was reasonably happy with it and it worked for a long time but, rather slowly.After doing lots of online research I decided to go with Epson again.I can't get over how much faster my new Artisan 837 is. It scans faster, prints to plain paper faster, prints envelope faster and nicely aligned (something that my 580 had problems with), prints CDs and DVDs dramatically faster plus I love the automatic built-in CD/DVD tray.The Artisan 837 is connected to my mid 2009 MacBookPro via USB but, I was delighted to discover that after setting up the printer using USB, I could still add the ability to login to my wireless network on the 837's touch screen. AirPrint is now working perfectly on my iPhone 5 and iPad Retina display. See, I thought that you had to chose one or the other but, in fact, you can be connect via USB and still have your iOS devices print to the Artisan 837 wirelessly. Very cool!I use Discus version 4.26 MagicMouse software to design print my CD and DVD labels. After closely following their Epson specific instructions, I printed a perfect label directly to the printable CD on the very first try. I was surprised how quickly it was finished.I purchased my new Epson Artisan from Amazon.com on January 28th. I took advantage of the Super Saver Shipping DIscount and it arrived at my home today at 2 PM.I'm extremely pleased with this fine printer and the quick service of Amazon.comThank-you!

I've always liked the Epson Artisan line of printers and have been using them for many years. While the 837 isn't an enormous upgrade over past generations, it's still a solid printer that brings a few new features.To get the usual praise out of the way, it still does the following very well:- Prints nice, vibrant photos- Prints on CDs/DVDs better than any other inkjet I've come across- Prints very quickly with minimal quality loss (although I wouldn't use the fast print setting for photos)- Scans reasonably fast and with a good amount of detail (for a printer)- Great for scanning documents, especially to an SD card (you just load in the document and press a few buttons and you've got a PDF--this is possibly my favorite feature)The downsides, as you'll find with most consumer-grade printers, is the build quality and the heavy ink usage. This thing uses tiny cartridges and blows through them very quickly. If you print often, plan to have a large stock of them. Also, as much as I like to promote the use of money-saving tactics I've actually messed up one of my Artisan printers by using discount ink. It may have been the brand, but the printer clogged and it was cheaper to get a new one (which is another big problem in and of itself, but not really the focus of a review). Basically, plan to spend quite a bit of money on ink. How much more you'll spend on ink with this printer than any other is something I don't know, but if I have several photos to print I generally order them because it's cheaper. I reserve the inkjet for small print jobs, CDs/DVDs, and scanning.The other problem is the build quality. While I've never damaged the printer's external hardware, it feels very flimsy. Just picking up the printer makes you feel like it could collapse in on itself. It never has and probably won't, but it just doesn't feel like a well-made piece of machinery.Overall, the downsides are pretty much what you could expect from any consumer inkjet printer. The upsides, on the other hand, are plentiful. While there are cheaper all-in-ones that will suit you just as well if you're a casual printer, the Artisan line is one of your best options if you plan to do a fair amount of work with your printer. I wish Epson would make a consumer-grade printer that was better-built and accepted larger ink cartridges, but that doesn't seem to be a likely future endeavor. Until they make something a little more solid and a lot more ink-efficient, the Artisan line is the way to go.

The artisan 837 is a sleek personal printer for a home office, intended for those who want a multi-function printer that scans, faxes, prints, prints cd's and processes photos, all on one device. It is also designed for those who do not want a monster size printer taking up half their desk space. My first impression of the device is that it is quite sleek looking. It is a glossy black exterior, with a nice digital touch pad to use for inputting data. But the slick blackness of it comes at a cost. It is difficult to see embossed lettering on the sides and top, especially if your office is a low light environment, and sometimes the digital pad isn't quite as responsive as I'd like.Installation of the ink cartridges was easy. There is an ink bay that opens and allows you to install each color in its own bay. There is no complex angle to insert the ink, and the cartridges snap in so you the owner can see they are properly installed. My second disappointment in the 837, was that the black ink cartridge was the same size as the other colored ink cartridges. As someone who prints more in black and white than in color, I appreciate it when a vendor makes the device accommodate a larger ink cartridge. Also, the ink cartridges are fairly tiny so I suspect I'll be shelling out more for ink soon.I didn't like the way the device loaded paper. The tray wasn't especially sturdy, and there was virtually too many options and ways to flub this easy task. I would prefer the custom paper tray be separate from the standard letter tray, so if I want to customize my tray to print photos I don't have to mess with the standard tray. Loading the paper required several tries to get perfect so the rollers didn't squash one side of the paper. I prefer to simply load and go, and not spend time fussing with the printer tray.The machine calibrated itself, and was read to work nearly instantly. To test it, I set up and used the fax feature. It worked quickly and easily. I appreciated how smooth the automotive print tray worked.Next I tried a black and white print. I noticed some black ink spots on the right margin of the page on a few of the sheets.Color printing produced a reasonable (albeit lighter) copy of the color image I fed through the automated tray.The printer is light on documentation for its advanced features. Features like the print to cd option are not covered. In the Quick guide, however you can find out more from the User's guide which is available online at Epson.Overall, I liked it, however some features could be better like the paper loading, the ink capacity for the black cartridge, and the documentation.PROS:Easy to set upSmaller than other modelsAll-in one designMany featuresSleek LookingEasy to insert new ink cartridges when neededAutomated paper tray worked wellCONSBlack ink cartridge same size as other cartridgesManual and features not properly documentedFussy paper trayTouchpad sometimes unresponsiveColor prints not color `true'Printed a few black spots on paper, however this problem went away after subsequent uses.

We are very happy with the Epson Artisan 837's printing quality when it comes to photographs. We've printed out 3 8x10's on the Epson photo paper and about a dozen 4x6's on high-quality photo paper we already had, and compared them with the same photographs printed and picked up from our local drugstore. The results are extremely similar, and I might even say the Artisan prints are slightly more brilliant in color. Either way, the Artisan is certainly not inferior.After we finished printing these photos, the ink levels were already halfway down on our magenta and black cartridges, and almost halfway on the rest as well. To be fair, the holiday photographs we printed did have a bit more red than a normal photograph may have, but not an overabundance. By my estimates, you should able to print perhaps 16-20 8x10 or 35-40 4x6 full color photographs before running out of ink. Obviously circumstances and type of photograph would make these numbers vary some, but I believe the ballpark figure is correct.Later on, we printed out a couple 8x10's on dollar store photo paper just for comparison purposes. We noticed the color wasn't nearly as brilliant on these as it was with the high quality paper. If you're going to use the Artisan to print photographs (which most people will), do yourself a favor and use high quality paper each time. It's definitely worth it.We've also used the Artisan for numerous regular printing jobs, and haven't had any issues whatsoever. The only issue we have now is our black and magenta cartridges have completely run dry, so we're forced to pick up some replacements for them. Replacement ink cartridges are not cheap. There are remanufactured or generic options available, but I'd rather get the genuine ink to have a consistent experience each time. Personal preference for me, the cheaper options may work just fine for others.Overall, our experience with the Artisan has been awesome, easily the best printer we've owned. Total setup only took a few minutes including wi-fi setup for our laptop, and the touch screen menu is relatively easy to navigate after exploring it a bit. We haven't experienced any paper jams or ink smudging. A smooth, even printing experience every time thus far. If you're going to get this exclusively for photograph printing, you will end up spending a pretty penny over time, but I think it's worth it for the convenience and ease of use. To top it off, it functions beautifully as a printer for everyday use aside from printing photos. A recommended purchase!

First, I love Epson printers. I am a long time fan of their professional imaging printers and could not say enough good things about the R1900 that I use for photography. I bought this printer to handle my routine office printing and scanning. For that, it does an excellent job. It is fast and reproduction of color is excellent. You will not be disappointed with the performance of this printer or the scanning capabilities when used for home design, office, and even light professional design work.Now why I don't like this printer. It is REALLY loud. But the real problem I have with this printer is it's layout. It is designed as if it is a part time printer. To explain, let us go through the process of printing something. To print something, you must fold the cover down that is on the front of the printer. Then, you must slide out an extension that then folds out three more times to form the paper tray. Now you are ready to print. So, you are done printing and the front of your printer looks almost as if it is being worked on with the paper tray out the way it is. So, you obviously fold the paper tray back up and close the front of the printer. Now everything looks nice again. But this is a wireless printer so later you are in the living room and need to print a report you received from your i-pad. You send the report to the printer and you know it is printing cause you can hear the printer from your neighbors house (exaggerating a bit). You later go the your office to grab the report expecting it to be waiting there neatly for you only to find out that the report is spread all over the desk and floor of your office. This is because if you do not manually fold down and extend out the paper tray each time, the front of your printer will open to allow the printing to take place but there is no place for the paper to land except for the floor.Maybe all new home office printers are built this way. It has been awhile since I have purchased anything other than a professional line printer. But years ago when I purchased a home office printer the paper tray was designed as such that the printer was always ready and that was not a wireless printer. Today when you can print from across the house or across town the printer should be designed so you never come back to it with your papers all over the floor and with this printer that is bound to happen on occassion.

This replaced my previous printer, and HP Photosmart All-In-One -- aside from a weird technical/network challenge which I had to work through (and will address below), I love this printer and am happy with the switch.PROS: - Network-enabled printing. Users on your home or office network can access this printer via Wi-Fi, which seems like not such a big deal but is really cool if you have roommates or multiple portable devices from which you might want to print. - Print quality is superb -- the best of any printer I've owned so far. I typically just print black-and-white but will occasionally run a color document or a photo and this printer performs very well. I wouldn't rely on this as a dedicated photo printer, however, and will go into this in the Cons - Sleek appearance - Touch screen interface is user-friendly (for most functions) and easy to navigate - Software / driver installation is straightforward - Decent paper capacityCONS: - Very large (takes up almost the entire surface of my credenza) - Color printing eats a lot of ink, and... - 6 ink cartridges (yes, you need all 6) may result in higher quality, but a relatively small black in capacity means you'll be getting more refills than you might be bargaining for if you bought this primarily for printing black-and-white documents - Slow startup time - Print-via-Wifi issues from some computers... see below - Printed pages fall to the floor unless you fully extend the fragile trayWIFI Printing was tough for me for a while. The first time I got this thing set up, my computer instantly detected and it worked great. The next day, however, I couldn't get it to print. The printer was on, and said it was connected, but my computer couldn't detect it on the Wifi network. I went online and read through a bunch of forums and ran through some driver uninstall/reinstall cycles that seemed to fix the problem. A little while later -- same problem!Since then, I've noticed that when you go to select a printer to print your document, you'll probably see multiple "Artisan 837" printers on the menu. The one you have to pick is "Artisan 837 (Network)" if it's showing up. Sometimes the others work, sometimes not -- but by selecting the (Network) one I've avoided any issues with printer connection.BOTTOM LINE: this isn't your printer if you just want something to run off black and white copies. However, if you plan on printing photos and/or color documents, and especially if you want Wifi connectivity and plan on using this printer from multiple devices, this is the printer for you.

This is a great choice in a printer especially if you need it for photographs because the quality of the printing is so good in both black and white and color. I am really impressed with the great job it does with photos--no need to get prints from the pharmacy. It is also very fast, even in color, you don't even feel like you're waiting. It will accept the memory card from your camera and the paper tray even holds the special photograph paper in addition to regular copy paper.Scanning and copying seem to take forever but as on other Epson printers I have tried, the quality is very good. I didn't bother to try out the fax because documents are so easily scanned and emailed and I don't know anyone who prefers to receive faxes instead of emailed attachments these days. In some offices, all incoming faxes are even automatically scanned and received by email.Setting this up wasn't difficult but it took me about an hour--that's from opening the box to being able to scan and print a sample photograph and print wirelessly from my computer. It has a touch screen that pops out for the control panel and the menu is fairly intuitive. It can be completely wireless except for the power cable. Usually I just use ethernet cables because that is easier than setting up wireless but it wasn't a problem even though my computer is an older Mac. You can also print wirelessly from multiple computers or from small electronic devices like iPhones that have that capability.Something unusual about the Epson Artisan 837 is that it has not four but six individual ink cartridges: black, yellow, magenta, light magenta, cyan, and light cyan. It will also will print directly onto a CD. What will they think of next?On the other hand, if there is anything bad to say about this printer, it is that like the other Epsons, the ink cartridges are ridiculously expensive and there are chips on them so they can't be refilled. There are two different capacities of cartridges available but a larger discount on the "Extra-High Capacity" ones would be nice. It comes with the regular ink cartridges and uses a lot of ink. Go ahead and order an extra high-capacity black cartridge when you buy the printer. If you are going to use a lot of color, you might as well go ahead and order a five-pack of the color cartridges as well. Do that three times and it's about the same as the cost of the printer!For most small business use, one of the other Epson printers with multiple paper trays and less emphasis on color and photograph printing would probably be a better choice. However, the Epson Artisan 837 is a 4.5 star printer for home use, especially if there are older children who will be using it to print a lot of color documents, particularly photographs. I'm rounding down to 4 stars instead of up to 5, though, because of the cost of ink.

So, my 620 gave it up and my wife, an artist insisted on me finding her a 6 ink cassette replacement to assure similar quality of photo printing. The unit arrived from Amazon and installed without any issues. Nice features and very high quality output. She didn't have any 4X6 photo stock on hand and cut down some heavy full size photo paper to try the unit out. The heavy stock at 4X6 got jam messages and we realized that heavy stock cut to 4X6 was just not feeding properly...got some regular 4X6 paper and the problem went away. Of course the ink cartridges are still expensive and they are much smaller than the 620s. We began using refilled cartridges from an after-market supplier in the 620 with good success, so we may take the same track with the 837 and save the difference between Epson and refilled costs. Epson could give the machines away for free as their profit on the ink is the only sore spot...that and with the 620, after a certain number of runs it gave a "service required" notification and we had to find a patch on line to avoid the machine refusing to print anymore...hopefully this will not be case with the 837...nice added features such as the ducument feeder, tilting enlarged lcd screen and the ease of set-up...can't complain about the price as it was $129.00 with a list of $279.00

The Epson Artisian 837 is an awsome printer. Prior to purchasing this printer, I did a lot of research on-line for a reliable, reasonably priced, and up-to-date(technology wise)feature friendly home-office printer. The reviews I read on CNET, BestBuy, and others all had great reviews. I found the perfect printer in the Epson Artisan 837.The setup was straight forward and fast - I got the wireless functionality set up with no problems. I am able to print wirelessly from my 2 laptops, IPAD, and Android phone. This printer also has cool features like E-Print, AirPrint, and Cloud Print - this basically enables me to print in various ways from virtually anyware. The scan and fax function will also be usefull for my virtual office needs.I tested all printer promoted functions and they delivered as promissed. The printer itself is well built - it didn't feel or look as flimsy or cheap as other models/ manufactures. The print quality is crisp (monochrome) and color photo prints (on Epson photo paper) are just as good as what you would get from a Rite Aid or some other photo processing place. This printer is also energy efficient - it goes into a sleep mode, when not in use.All in all, I would definetly recommend this printer for its technology, quality, and cost.

The first Artisan 837 I received had a malfunction (related to the ink cartridge initialization), but the second one has been perfect! I've had this Epson dream-machine for six months or so, and it's blown away my prior expectations of Inkjet printers and All-in-One machines. Not only that, but the price (considering all the functions you get) is amazingly cheap at $199.Everything this Epson Artisan 837 does, it does extremely well, and FAST, not to mention that it's easy to use and is also a beautiful piece of electronic art...until I had this printer, I had thought that Canon printers were quite good but this Epson product has altered everything I thought I knew about quality, speed, performance, etc.Furthermore, its ink supply (particularly the black ink) is exceptionally good and the cartridges seem to last much longer than Canon cartridges did. It's hard to decide what's best about this Epson, because just about everything about it is superb. It is extremely fast, it is very easy to program/use, it's gorgeous, its printed output is beautiful (including that of the fax and scanner), with all the sub-components doing their job very well (printer, scanner, fax, and copier).I know some have complained about the weight/quality of the paper tray(s) but unless you severely mistreat them mechanically, I doubt they will be a problem (I have had no issues or problems with the paper trays or handling). The other positive thing I found is that Epson handled my initial problem quickly and professionally and they immediately sent me a new machine.And one last comment: I'm using this product with an Apple iMac, running Mac OS X version 10.6.8. I assume it works just as well with a Windows computer...

I purchased this epson printer about two months ago. Right from the start the paper always jammed no matter what brand I used. Technicle suppor was no help, they told me I should not have that problem and offered no solution.after two months the screen indicator went blank. After hours of time on the phone they agreed to send me a used replacement. The used replacement came and did not function at all. The replace was quite dirty and scratched. I called tech support and they are sending another replacement. They refuse to send a new one only one of these abused machines they have from customers who have had problems before. They make it very difficult to get the replacement and make you pay for a new printer and reimburse you after you ship the old machine back. They make it almost impossible for you to follow there return policy. I have still not received my money back from the first replacement. In general the printer is hard to use. The wifi feature is very temperamental. Sometimes it works but mostly you have to be within a few feet of the printer to get it to work and it is very very slow. This is not a good product.

We bought this printer in February 2012. We have used it very little and most of our documents have been printed in black and white. Early in July 2012 we started getting splotches near/overlapping the edge of our document as if someone had spilled the light magenta ink on the document. Since it overlapped the edge, this means that it also leaked down into the printer This occured a few times and then quit occuring and started printing normally again, although our light magenta level ended up being less than half full after that even though just before it was nearly full. 2 weeks later this same thing occured and our light magenta is almost empty even though all of our other colors besides black are full.In calling support to see what can be done to alleviate the ink splotches from recurring they had us print/copy/etc. several documents until the ink quit producing splotches on the document again then told me to replace the light magenta since it was almost out. They suggested that the reason the light magenta was almost empty was that when I print black and white documents it uses a little of the colored ink as well. This would mean that I was imagining the big light magenta ink splotches and my black and white documents actually use the same amount of light magenta as black when printing black and white documents, but uses almost none of the other colors since they are still almost full, which is a ridiculous theory.I'll be replacing the ink cartridge though I shouldn't have to. I asked them what they would do if I called back with another empty light magenta ink cartridge and blotches on my documents once again and they said they would troubleshoot. They would never tell me that they will replace it so if this thing keeps running LM ink all over the place I expect to have to replace this myself. If this is the case I will never purchase another epson product.

Let's get the negative out of the way: Epson's ink is stupidly expensive and they really don't like you using non-OEM ink. There. Done. That's really the only negative thing I have to say about this excellent unit. The 837 set-up in a breeze. We have it networked to work with a netbook, three MacBooks, and a Mac tower. It works seamlessly with all of them. The scanning function/performance is on par with all of the major brand multifunction units (you're always going to get better scans with a dedicated unit than with a multifunction). It's nice to have a sheet fed scanner to augment my stand alone scanner for OCR work. The fax machine works just like a fax machine should. As a printer, it fits nicely into the Epson brand. I'm a big fan of Epson's printing products (with the exception of the disastrous R1800, which was both useless *and* expensive). I've used several different printer brands and my experience has been that Epson products produce the best color reproduction with the fewest problems.I've read a lot of reviews here endorsing HP products, but I've found the color matching and performance of HP's products to be utterly sub standard if you're looking to print high quality photographs. I abandoned their products years ago in exchange for Epson's far superior products.So, yes, you'll pay more for ink. If you are just looking for basic color prints and aren't anal retentive about quality, go for the HP and use off brand ink. If, however, you're a little obsessive about your images, you have to go with Epson. This unit is a great solution for anyone needing a multifunction unit instead of several stand alone units.

Set up was very easy (if I can do it anyone can)! I had no problems setting up the wireless printing and connecting all my computers with different operating systems to this printer. To be fair, I haven't tried all the features of this all-in-one. I really just needed a good solid printer. 4x6 photos seem to come out great but when I print 8x10's there seems to be some color loss of the blues and greens, the pics look kind of washed out and not vibrant. This printer doesn't have the "photo" black cartridge that my HP had and it makes a difference. I tweaked the color settings (had to adjust cyan and brightness all the way up to get close to the quality of my old HP Photosmart 7360 on factory default settings. It really prints well (if I wasn't comparing the prints to my HP prints I might not have noticed any quality issues) but if you are a photographer or want excellent photo quality on large prints you might not want this model.I loaded some paper, did a test print. All good. I printed a photo and it printed partly on one sheet and partly on another (very annoying when using photo paper). I hope this is not going to be an ongoing problem as it would mean I have to pull out the tray, load one sheet of paper, close the tray, pull out the upper tray that catches the finished print paper each time I print a page, then close the upper tray and pull out the bottom tray to load another sheet to print... If I am doing a lot of printing this could get old. The trays feel flimsy but seem to work adequately.I'll try to remember to follow up as I learn more about this printer...if I keep it.

Purchased this from another big-box electronics retailer and I have owned the Epson Artisan 800, 810, 837, C11CA52201 series All-In-One Printer for two years and because of; (1) the Artisan's inferior quality, (2) the Artisan's inferior internal parts design, and (3) Epson's Warranty Scam; never would I purchase anything made by Epson ever again. The primary failure of this printer is the plastic internal gears in the Epson Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) which is pure JUNK and will cause feeder jambs to haunt you for several days until it then stops feeding paper totally. When I called for service repair under the Epson Warranty, I was told that I will need to give Epson with my credit card information so Epson can charge me full the retail price of $299 so they could ship me a used "manufactured" printer as a replacement for my "NEW" broken printer. WHAT?At this very same time, Epson had the same "RE-MANUFACTURED" printer listed for sale on it's website for only $139, however, they wanted to charge my credit card $299, then ship me a used printer, and only after I shipped them the broken NEW printer would my credit card be refunded the $299. I refused to give them my credit card and demanded they replace my broken printer with a new printer under the warranty and Epson refused. The Epson warranty claim rep. directed my to their online warranty "FINE PRINT" that allows Epson to replace my defective NEW printer with a factory refurbished "USED" printer.EPSON WARRANTY is a scam and I urge you to seriously consider buying a printer from any other manufacture but Epson, unless you like getting scammed out of your hard earned money! NEVER will Epson scam me again because NEVER will I buy another of their worthless products.

I've never been fond of the all-in-one printers, mainly because I've had issues with them in the past (back in the HP days.) I've had experience with previous Epson models, and they've been amazing in terms of cost and quality and perfect for home use. With that being said, I have a high expectation for Epson products since they work well and perform great. This printer is no exception and is by far the best Epson printer I've owned.Setting up the printer was very easy: the worst part for me was getting it out of the box. The printer is well protected inside of the box to the point of feeling like it wasn't going to ever come out. The AIO took a few minutes to warm up after I inserted paper, the cartridges and removed all of the tape. Wireless was a snap. It detected my WPA2 network just fine and best of all, I didn't have to go digging around for an appropriate USB cable to set this printer up.Installing the printer software was just as easy on Windows 7 (32 bit). I did install the printer drivers on my Macbook running OS X Lion without any issues (I first checked the website for drivers and didn't use the included CD just in case since vendors seem to be iffy on Lion support.) Curiously, the installation software walked me through an updated firmware check and installation.B&W/color printing was pretty quick and clean on paper. Documents come out nice and crisp. The duplex printing was awesome (it's truly an added bonus!) What astonished me was the quality of printing on photo paper. It was nice to print out photos quickly, but for larger jobs I'd consider using another service. There's a MS/SD/xD card slot along with a CF card slot on the front of the unit. It won't read camera RAW files but reads JPGs just fine. There's also a USB port on the front and it will read off a flash drive or an external hard drive. That's pretty awesome.Scanning was easy and effortless over wireless. The document feeder worked with scanning a stack of bills I had. And scanning a few test photos I had was just was effortless and came out fine.I didn't really test the fax other than sending a fax to the office which does work. Although, I would have liked to have seen an e-fax service integrated with the Artisan 837 (although for the price, I'm not complaining - just wishing!) since faxing seems to have gone by the wayside. But for a small/home office, this is a nice bonus.The AIO also will do CD label printing. It's a neat feature but I honestly don't know how much I'd actually use it. What small feature I did use right off the bat is the free Epson iPrint app for the iPhone/iPad. This is a great app! I was able to print images I took along with documents from Dropbox that I had.Overall, the all-in-one is very slick. I'm not often impressed by all-in-one devices, but this Epson is flat out amazing. Easy to set up, easy to use and it'll make your life a lot easier.

I bought this printer to replace my all in one canon mp830 which broke after 3 years of minimal use.I chose this product because of the price and that it was primarily a photo printer.A lot smaller and more compact, and quieter than the canon which is nice.I've had it for about 3 weeks, and so far it works amazingly well. I have it hard wire networked with a windows 7 64 bit desktop, a mac OS X 10.4, a windows 7 laptop 32 bit, and an ipad all printing to it.Setup was easy with the disk included. No problem at all on any of the systems.A fast turn on time. The canon took around a minute to warm up. this is about half that.The photo quality is excellent. The pictures are perfectly matched to what's seen on my monitor. And fast too. I've got it set to print basic quality, so i can print a 4X6 in about 45 seconds. An 8 X 11 took about 1 min to 1:30. it has an option for fine print quality that i have not tried yet.i've printed about 10 4x6 and 2 8x11 and the ink supply is holding up well.Scanner works well. quality is good. Scans well over the network.copy is ok. flat copies are fine. but copying book and magazine pages were difficult. i found it was more econimical to scan the book pages to make sure they were legible before printing.Fax machine is easy to use. no problem. the canon fax option was complicated.I don't use it for basic printing of documents, but that works well too.It has an eprint option that allows you to print to it by sending an attached document via an email to it's email address. So you can print documents from work to home by emailing them to your printer. Pictures too (even from your phone). pretty cool.again the best part is the price. I spent a lot of money on the canon and the scanner lock system broke and the whole thing shut down. very dissapointed.this was about $100 less, so if it breaks after 3-4 years i won't feel completely ripped off.the only reason not 5 stars is its only been 3 weeks.

I bought this printer for home office use. I just could not buy another HP because I have had so many problems with them in the past. Since this printer got such good reviews I decided to give it a try. I do most of my work on my iPad these days and I needed a printer with air print. I was able to connect this printer very easily by myself in about 20 minutes. It prints very nicely and is quiet. I did, however, have a problem when it came to using air print. I could not get it to print from my iPad. It would print from my iPhone, my pc and by choosing an action from the touch screen of the printer. My iPad would recognize the printer and I would choose it and hit print, but I always got a message saying that there was no paper or a paper jam. This was very frustrating for a while. I finally found a solution. In the App Store you can download a free app called Epson iPrint. When there is something I want to print I take a screen snapshot and then go to the app. I look under photos and find what I saved and choose print. It is very easy and works perfectly. I just wanted to pass this along in hopes it might save someone else a little frustration.

Definitely the best printer I've owned in terms of:- photo quality- functions and features- ease of use- ease of setup- compatibility with my devices- appearanceThe one thing that has disappointed me is it's size - a little on the big side and requires ample desk space.Other than than, I followed the quick instructions and had it printing with my computer and iPhone with very little effort.My primary use of this printer is for printing quality photos and scanning photos. With these two features I am impressed with the quality of the results and the speed at which it completes these tasks.I have been disappointed with so many printers in the past and before this printer, just wished there was an economical printer that could at least handle photos well. I could accept an older printer to handle the grunt printing of regular 8x10 paper.Well I'm happy to say, with the recent discount on this printer, you can't get better value. And since Epson is known for quality photos (with the exception of my previous Epson Stylus NX43xxx series, which is complete junk IMO), this should server the value photographer very well.

Does everything: Prints, scans, faxes, copies and has a card reader and flash drive port. Connects to your network using either WiFi or Ethernet. Or connects to your computer via USB. Supports Bluetooth printing. Has separate trays for copy paper and photo paper. Supports duplex (two-sided) printing, and prints on CD/DVD. Scanner supports both tray and document feeder. Document feeder seems more robust than the previous model (Artisan 810 in my case). Control panel lets you plug in a flash drive or memory card and print photos directly from the printer. Also allows you to copy or move photos from the memory card to the flash drive, or to any of your configured computers. You can also choose to scan to a file or pdf and send it directly to any of the configured computers on your network. Configuration means installing the software and letting it find the printer. And of course you can control scanning and copying photos directly from your computer. This model is quieter than previous models, and a bit faster. The control panel has been cleaned up and simplified.

My old HP PhotoSmart 2710 bit the dust and I bought this Epson Artisan 837 with some trepidations. That PhotoSmart had made some 27,300+ in its lifetime.The old HP has been such a wonderful work horse - only 1 - 2 jams in its lifetime, made beautiful photos with great clarity. But sadly it is no longer manufactured. So I decided to go a little more high tech.After circling this thing for a few days and having to get my computer guru to come in and complete the set up (I just got to point I could not do rest of it), I began to try to master this.Pro - it has a great front/back device that totally eliminates any manual work for this type work.Pro - the auto document feeder will be a big step up from the old HPPro - the keyboard is easy to masterPro - can use my new soon to be purchased IPhone with itBUT !!Have not yet mastered scanning! - I'm scanning but it's going somewhere out there in cyberspace and I can't find it in my documents, etc. This is a must learn thing!AND ! !Please tell me that it's not going to be drinking ink as it has to begin with the cartridges that came in the box - I've been using this now less than a week and the black ink is showing low already ! IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM, PLEASE DO OR ELSE I can see big, big bucks being spent on new ink cartridges out there. The Epson ink cartridges are super pricey compared to my old HP PhotoSmart.ALSO ! !Is there anyway to print out in an more economical fashion? Not much luck there after trying several selections in the print box.AND ! ! Using my old HP copy paper doesn't do well on back/front copies - printing from one side shows through to the other.The three star rating is more about the ink problem than anything else - hope I can master a better way of printing that will be more cost savings than what I've done to date.All suggestions/help will be greatly appreciate by this very senior citizen gray headed lady looking at 78 years old soon! Thanks!August 21, 2012 - - troubles! Epsom printer will not print correctly if you are doing a book with pages and try to auto print front/back. It prints the first page correctly but the print on back page comes out upside down. I'm going to change my star selection on this and downgrade. It seems this is a glitch in the Epsom printing program that has not been fixed yet. What a shame!

Had high hopes for this product but major disappointment. I haven't been able to receive faxes and after much searching on google, finally found the small print on Epson site saying it "may not" work if you have digital phone service like through your internet/cable service. This isn't in their literature but rather was a response to someone's question about how to receive faxes. They should have that stated up front as it is terribly frustrating when you buy a machine to fax and receive faxes and get caught in a tight timeline and can't receive a fax. Even stating it in the manual would be helpful so you aren't caught short when you need to receive a fax. The printer works adequately but ink is gone very quickly, like after printing a 7 page color brochure-2 ink colors had to be replaced. The machine itself is plastic and doesn't seem too durable. If you only plan to use it occasionally to print something in color, perhaps it will work for you but wouldn't recommend it to anyone myself.

I bought this printer due to government cutbacks at work. I needed something in the home office realm which I could accomplish the occasional work related task. This printer far exceeds what I expected, with the added bonus of being able to print beautiful photos during my off time. Printer is amazingly quick and quiet. I have not experienced any wifi connectiviity issues that have plagued others. I have not tried using any of the fax features on this printer, as the setup seemed overly complicated and was still asking for a landline number. I need to do further reading in the manual about that feature. Airprint (Wireless Device printing) is probably my favorite feature with this printer. I love being able to print documents/webpages/phtos from anywhere using my android. I managed to even print PDF's to myself while I was on leave two states away. Overall, extremely satisfied with this printer and the value being sold at on Amazon.

This is a very good all around printer, as others have stated. I agree that the plastic trays seem flimsy. I've used Epson photo printers 3800 & 2200 for the last decade exclusively and decided I needed an all around so I wasn't wasting precious photo quality inks.With the 837 documents look great, faxing & scanning is easy & the occasional photo looks swell. This is not a dedicated photo printer so you can't expect it to look as good as say the 3800, but it does a decent enough job w/ pictures.Epson drivers are never that happy with the MAC OS, so if printing looks crappy there's a good chance you need to explore the print driver setting and make sure photos are not being double processed... meaning if you're printing out of photoshop etc, make sure ONLY photoshop or ONLY the printer is controlling print setting. If you have both checked you will get muddy pics... Same deal for docs.Bigger the issues arose when connecting to my network. maybe this fix can help you, pc or Mac.I had trouble getting the printer to join my wifi network, I have an older mac router, which I thought might be the problem, it wasn't, butI did have to reset my router, (and all my airport expresses) & most importantly change/update my password protocol. My router had been setup to allow older legacy devices (such as a long gone 1st gen tivo) to access network. I picked a new wpa2 password, put the new password into printer, and it instantly joined the network, printing wireless from my ipad as well as imac.The wireless connection was still spotty, dropping in & out; I then changed the 'channel' my router used (through airport utility). I had to try a few different channels until I hit one that has since given a rock solid connection with no dropouts while printing or streaming music.

Prints photos fine but wastes alot of paper, the printer more often than not grabs multiple sheets of paper causing photos to be off center or on multiple paper even when using epson photo papers. I was hoping to use printer for multiple tasks, including printing checks but in order to do that, I have to load individual sheets because it grabs multiple sheets otherwise. With amount of money wasted on paper and reprinting, wish I would have bought a better printer.Review update, I originally gave this printer 2 stars and had hoped after a few months I would have a better opinion. The printer after 5 months of use has stopped printing from paper tray and defaults to the cd tray. After researching issue I was advised to to completely uninstall and then reinstall printer, it printed briefly and after 1 day the cd tray light is on and it is defaulting to the cd. I have never used the cd printing function. The printer does not seem to have a reset to default settings option or a way to reboot without completely reinstalling. Also, as other reviewers have mentioned when one ink runs out your done printing until you replace the empty cartridge. I have never experienced this before and have owned lexmark, hp, and canon printers. Pretty ridiculous to shut down black and white printing because light magenta is out. If you want nice pictures be prepared to spend extra money on Epson's own paper, if I had known other photo papers weren't compatible, I would not have purchased. At this point I feel I have no other choice but to replace this printer. I will not purchase another Epson!

This is a substantial printer for the price, we paid less than $100 new. It is the fourth multi function printer that I have had and easily the best. I have it installed wired on the network and the process couldn't have been easier to setup on all the computers. Easy setup and registered for cloud and email printing with no problems anywhere.Compared to the HP setup process on our previous printer, which was almost enough to make you swear off printing anything ever again, this was a piece of cake. We don't have any cd drives so downloaded the install file from their website and was ready to print in 10 minutes.The kids love it and quickly discovered the printable pages from the front menu. I like the fact that it uses 6 different inks as well. The scanner software is very basic but the quality is good.Overall a fantastic substantial printer and one that our cats don't seem to want to sit on and certainly cannot knock off the shelf.

I picked this printer up at my local BB due to the $$$ savings. I got lucky at it was $199+tax, which is still a great deal. I have been a staunch Canon user for YEARS, and have waited and waited for the MG8220 to be back in stock. Well, it's been 3 months, and I still couldn't find it. However, that's not why I jumped ship. I also own a Canon Selphy printer, and long story short.....have had it less than a year, and discovered (while attempting to use it) that they will no longer support this product on the Mac OS!!!! REally???? I was shocked. They said I could trade it in for another printer, except the other model doesn't support Mac's either!! Unless they are living under a rock, there are more and more Mac users by the day, so unless they want to lose more customers, they need to step it up. End of story...bye bye Canon.Now onto the actual review! LOL! I am actually in LOVE with the Artisan 837. I actually started out with Epson printers years ago, and did like them, except for the clogging ink carts. I figured since they don't use pigment-based inks anymore, it won't be an issue. The features are amazing and abundant! I haven't explored them all, but look forward to using them. It's beautiful to look at for one, it's modern, the UI is intuitive. I love the touch screen and HELLO???.... you can print your own notebook paper and graph paper....several styles. I've tried the coloring book feature, and it's a blast. works really well. The photos are gorgeous and fast to print as well. It doesn't have wireless scanning that i know of, but i would think it would be kind of useless anyway since you have to put whatever you want to scan on the scanner bed anyway! (someone please correct me if i'm wrong) I had no problems at all with setting it up, as well as connecting it to my iPhone for printing with the Epson app (get the official Epson apps....) from the iTunes store. It also works with my iPad!! I've not had this printer for long, but i will update my review when i've had it a little longer. Don't hesitate....buy it!!!

Nothing compares to the abusive experience of excitedly opening, setting up (20+min), and downloading the driver software only to discover your unit is WORTHLESS because you don't have a USB cord. What kind of [expletive deleted]bags create a piece of hardware and don't give you a USB cord??? I like how they don't put this fact on the box. You have to get all the way through the directions to get this nasty surprise. This will ruin someone's Christmas for sure. Also, the touch screen is insensitive, just like the money-hungry and heartless "people" who are too cheap to give you a USB cord/created this piece of trash. You have to touch it six or seven times for it to register. An 8.5"x11" piece of paper won't fit well into the tray, and the "free paper" pack consists of two photo-sized pieces of paper. That's quite magnanimous of you, Epson. You know what you can do with them. While the unit looks sleek, it is clearly a flimsy, injection molded piece of garbage that will break in short order. Epson has disappointed before with their fugitive orange ink scandal. I love my new paperweight, thanks so much Epson! I will NEVER buy anything from these people again--it is my new crusade to convince everyone I know never to give them any business until they collapse into a neutron star of chapter 11. ____ you, Epson!!!!

If I could return this printer I would but it is past the return window.timing. I have spent the last month trying to get it to work with my iMac 10.8.2 computer. I have finally accepted that this printer is just not compatible with my upgraded iMac. Epson support has given me long lists of items to check but I would need a degree in engineering from MIT to follow their instructions. I just purchased a new USB cable cord hoping that a direct connection rather than a wireless connection would solve my problem for me and still it does not work for me. Epson knows this printer is not compatible because they have a long list of work-a-rounds including updated downloads on their site but all of these are to no avail. I am left with no printer and a lot of wasted energy trying to put a square peg in a round hole. I feel sad about this because people who have P.C's give this printer high marks. With a Mac it is just not a match made in heaven. Next time I will read all of the other comments from all of the other frustrated Mac /Epson users on line and know that it was a warning sign to me to not buy this printer.

The printer can do a great job but it has one FATAL FLAW and one annoying flaw.FATAL FLAW: Often, with PDF files, it will starting printing total gibberish. There seems to be little pattern to it, but if you just resend the print job it may or may not print it correctly. Epson says it's Adobe's fault, Adobe says it is Epson's. Either way, it is a SERIOUS PROBLEM and no one wants to take ownership of it. As important as PDFs are, it is essential that someone accept responsibility and fix this.Annoying problem: This printer is very picky about print cartridges and will often say it cannot recognize a cartridge when it has been using it for days. Open and close the lid and it starts working again.

After set it up, I tested printing with some photos. It looks fine on screen.However, from the printer, it printed some vertical lines, unfortunately, it crossed the faces.So I can't keep this test printing. So far it happened sometimes not always.We need to find out the reason and please consider your decision until you figure it out.Otherwise, you will not be able to print your picture with this.Also 2 side printing is only supported by glass window.If you scan a piece of paper thru the feeder on the top, it doesn't copy both sides.If you scan a piece of paper thru the glass window, the printer will ask you to flip it over and press a button.The details doesn't describe how 2 side printing works.However, at this price, it is a pretty good feature.If you have more questions about this product, then please reply my post.I am more than happy to answer your questions.Enjoy shopping at amazon.com.

I love this printer. I bought it to print my photos. They are crisp high quality prints. ...and very fast. Setup was a breeze. There was one glitch tho. If you are setting it up for wireless printing, be sure to choose wireless in the initial setup. There is a quick setup guide included that says something about setting it up with a usb cable first then you will be given the wireless choice later. Be sure to choose wireless first, then you choose to finish the setup with a usb cable in a later step and everything goes smoothly. I printed about 90 4x6s before my ink ran out. I bought a CIS system instead of more cartridges cause I intend to print a lot more pics. I will update if anything changes but so far this printer is everything it is advertised to be!

I have now gone through two different printers that I purchased at Office Max. The first printer installed fine, but when I tried to print a photo to the included two sampled of 6x4 premium photo paper, the result was a mess. The ink was completely smeared and even after 3 days it was not dried and continued to smear.I took the printer back and a couple days later got a replacement. Initially, it looked like everything was going to work out. My first prints came out crisp and dry almost immediately. Then, two days later, I tried printing to an 8.5 x 11 glossy paper and the result stank. The black was globbing up and smeared after 5 minutes of sitting.What the H is going on here? Is Epson loosing control of their ink quality?I'm not sure I am willing to try a 3rd time!

My fantastic HP Photosmart 3310 eventually died on me after 5 years of great service. Upset that I couldnt get another same model and tried to choose another HP but basically gave up as a) I couldnt use my stock of 3310 ink cartridges (very expensive) in any other current HP printers - so screw you HP and b) All the latest HP printers dont seem to be up to the old standards. So - spent a lot of time reading numerous reviews of this and other printers. Also spent time looking at them in various stores. Eventually ordered this model as it seemed to be the most substantial and well designed of all the 'home' printers without going to the next level of bulky printer. There are a lot of cheaper models but they all seemed to be worryingly cheap/flimsy to me.Only just set the printer up but impressed with it so far. I read a lot of bad reviews about problems with set up and paper trays. I found the setup (on three laptops and one home PC - all windows XP)to be very easy - even with just using the WIFI connectivity (no cable). I did try to download the printer drivers from the internet for my Notebook that has no CD drive but found this just would not work (constantly timed out from the Epson web site)- so in the end I just copied the setup files from the CD to a thumb drive and loaded them onto my notebook that way.All in all it is a nice looking printer and so far prints and scans very well - software is easy and quick to use.In line with many reviews I have noticed that the paper trays do seem to be quite flimsy and of minimal strength - could be a problem in the future but we arent heavy volume users and will be careful when reloading paper. one of the nice features on the printer is that you can hold two paper sizes (including photo paper) in the paper tray so you dont have to take out and replace/re-adjust when you want to quickly print photos or envelopes - simple but something that many of the other printer models dont seem to have.Will report back after a few months if anything does go wrong with paper feeds and ink/print heads etc but a very nice printer for home office use so far.

I use this for printing, copying and scanning, and I appreciate the convenience of the ADF and Duplexer.I mostly print on plain paper, and sometimes cardstock or labels.Now and then, two sheets will feed together, but no paper jams.The OCR program (AABBY) is very versatile.Color and mixed text/photos works fine on plain paper.I've only done a little printing on photo paper, some very good, and some horrible.But maybe I am using the wrong paper or settings, or printing with some cartridges low on ink.I like the separate cartridges for each ink color, and lower prices than others.BTW, for monochrome printing, I have bought the Epson K300 for pastors in Kenya and the Philippines for low-cost printing, and they are happy with the results.

While I like the high-end Epson printers, I've usually gone with HP when it comes to all-in-one systems. After using this Epson, my opinion has changed. This is a very well made device.I was impressed right out of the box - Epson made a great effort to package the system so it can withstand the bruises inflicted by transit. That may seem like a minor issue, but it's important to me as I can't remember the last time I purchased electronics from a brick and mortar store. It's nice to see that some manufacturers understand that their products are going to be shipped (usually without any other protection) and take steps to ensure that it gets to the customer in working order.Build quality seems generally good, although the paper tray seems flimsy. That's a tough call to make, however, since some plastics are engineered to be both light but also sturdy. Thus, no stars were deducted on that account. It does look quite nice - much better than the bland, drab putty-colored office machines.Setup was straightforward. I was worried about wireless setup since my last wireless printer (an HP) took a couple of hours of the `try this/swear/try that/swear/try something else' approach to installation. The Epson was quick and painless.Photo print quality is excellent - much better than I expected at this price point. No, it won't give a high end photo printers that cost five times as much a run for their money (especially in monochrome), but for general purpose snapshot printing, this is fantastic. Sharp, clear and fast. Really fast!Faxing was also easy to set up and use. The paper feeder works very well for multi page feeding even with rumpled pages. The touch panel greatly aids in helping you figure out what to do without guessing or (perish the thought!) looking it up in the manual.My only complaint is the ink. It's not a great printer when it comes to black ink use - the cartridge is small and priced higher than other black inks when you compute the cost per ml. The printer will not function when one of the cartridges is empty.This is not the best choice if you plan on using your all in one for a lot of B/W tasks (e.g., mainly for faxing and B/W copies). There are more economical choices out there. This is, however, an outstanding choice if you want to do a fair amount of color photo printing plus have the ability to make a copy or send/receive a fax all from the same machine, and have a painless time setting it up for either direct connect or wireless use. Highly recommend.

I purchased an HP wide format 9800 that was not working well. The paper was jamming, the printing quality was poor so I returned it a week later. At the suggestion of the customer rep.,I purchased the Epson 837 instead of replacing the HP. I was told that ink, even for the standard cartridges, would yield a high quantity. Based on other inkjets that I have owned, the cartridges do yield a higher amount; however, not as high as I expected. The printer quality depends on the paper used. This printer prints beautiful pictures on good quality photo paper; however, I find that text is not a crisp on any kind of paper. Also, because the ink saturation is so high, it is important to get the "no smudge" labels because they will smear. I called Epson for support, and they said that this printer was not made to print labels, so use at your own risk.

We purchased the Artisan 837 to replace our Artisan 810 printer. The automatic feed on the Artisan 810 stopped working; we suspect that our cat jumped and landed on it, so likely not the printer's fault.I was never able to get the Artisan 837 printer to work reliably. From the outset, it would get paper feed errors. I was careful to adjust the tabs such that the paper was placed properly but not binding. I am not sure whether this was an issue with the rollers or motor etc...I diligently checked the duplex unit and the entire paper path. Nothing corrected the problem.I decided that the best route was to just replace the 837, so I went out and bought a Workforce 4530 and that appears to have a much higher build quality.I would not recommend the Artisan 837 based upon my experience.

I purchased the Artisan 837 to replace my 835 model which was a year and a half old when it failed. Being familiar with the 835, setup was easy for the 837. I've only had the new printer 2 days and so far it works as it's supposed to do. My main concern is if this new model is going to last longer than the last one. One and a half years is in my opinion not a reasonable amount of time for any printer to last. That being said I do like the way this machine works, it prints great on cds & dvds, copys and scans very nicely and though I've not faxed on this one My wife has a workforce 630 that we use for that purpose and it works great.

After the failure I had with Tigerdirect and a HP printer, I decided to go back to what I've used for years and get this Epson. In comparison, the box came shipped inside a box for protection and showed up two days after ordering it with super saving shipping, unlike the HP I purchased a few weeks before, which came looking like it was through a hurricane 2 weeks later. It took 20 minutes to unwrap it, set it up via wireless and finally, print a test photo. The printer is crisp and snappy, with image quality I was not expecting from a all-in-one device. The touchpanel is much smoother than the HP but the menu isn't as friendly.We leave the printer on and it goes into a sleep mode. When my girlfriend or I select to print from either of our laptops, it turns on quickly and prints within a minute.I haven't scanned anything yet or used some of the other features like sd card but I'm very satisfied with this product and would recommend it for anyone looking for a good family printer. The only real down to this printer would be the cost of the cartridges.4 stars because nothing is perfect and can be improved on.

I bought this printed based on my previous 2 Epson products. This by far is worse than any other printer I've ever been exposed to. This simply does not live up to Epson Standards.Pulls many pages. Most recently it pulled more than 10 sheets of paper.Print is uneven. Dark on one line lighter on another.Graphics are pathetic. Don't buy this if you are doing desktop publishing projects - you'll be embarrassed.Odd Sizes. Nope. Don't try it. Won't work. Not like my prior Epsons were I could print anything. This thing makes a Brother or Lexmark seem top of the line.Ink - goes through ink like blood sucker.My experience with this product has been less than stellar and I'm looking to see if I'm within my 90 days so I can take it back and get something that works.

I've left strict instructions for my employees to throw me off the highest cliff they can find if I ever so much as even think about buying another Epson printer. You would think that, after all these years of producing printers, Epson could make a printer that feeds one sheet of paper every time. Nope. Everybody else can but not Epson. Print quality is good, speed is good but it's a constant battle with paper feed. If I print 25 copies, I might get 23 good and 2 blank. Or 25 good with 2 or 3 blanks mixed in. Printing labels is near impossible. The most frustrating, aggravating, time wasting POS I've had in a long time. The best part? I have 2 of them!! Each as useless as the other.

I ordered my new Epson Artisan 837 printer on Tuesday, paid an extra $3.50 for overnight shipping, and the printer arrived the next day...I didn't even have to dress up and go out into the cold.Initial installation went well (This isn't my first wireless printer). I'm replacing a Dell/Lexmart printer. Installation on this printer was easier than my previous printer.WARNING - If you are installing into Windows 8 you need to go the Epson Website, specify your operating system and download the software for your computer. I tried to use the supplied DVD, and it crashed my system...I ended up having to reload everything....uggh....Other than that, the printer works well, and is a lot faster than my old one.

I thought I was getting a great deal on this printer when I picked it up for $120 at Best Buy six months ago. It was quite bulky and heavy and difficult to find a place for, but it had all the features I wanted, including an auto-document feeder and a fax line. It prints text and color as well as any inkjet printer I've ever used. Photos are excellent -- well above what a drugstore could produce.And then it broke. It had a series of paper jams and then suddenly it started making a horrible grinding noise whenever it started to load the paper. Epson support, once I reached them, agreed to send me a new printer -- after they placed a $200 hold on my credit card as collateral to ensure that I returned their broken printer to them within seven days. Ten days later I received my new printer -- and it didn't work. It simply was incapable of printing. Another hour on the phone and they agreed to send me a second refurbished printer, but this time they promised to check to make sure it was working -- gee, thanks. They also agreed to ship the printer 'overnight' but I didn't receive it for 4 days. Also, the packing they sent to return the second printer was so inadequate that FedEx made me sign a waiver taking responsibility for any damage during shipment.This is a good, if poorly made, printer. Don't expect it to stand up to high-volume use or last long, and heaven help you if you have to return it. Before these problems I would have rated it four stars, but I took off one for reliability and one for customer service.

After reading all the great reviews of this printer I had to buy one, and what can I say, this printer has been one of the worst printers I have ever bought!Non stop paper jams, heck, even with no paper in the printer it will still report paper jams!When it does seem to print, it manages to suck in 20 pieces at once and manages to print a tiny bit on each one! So this basically becomes a manual feed 1 at a time printer which just destroys the whole wi-fi aspect of it.It just boggles my mind how in 2013 I can't manage to buy a decent printer that can take a piece of paper and print it correctly.

This is my fourth artisan printer, I love the quality and speed of print, however, their longevity is very questionable. The first printer did not make it through the warranty period before it had to be replaced( it was replaced without any problems). The next two units quit after the warranty period was over. I buy this unit because it prints directly on a cd/dvd with a built in tray. I would not recommend this product or any other artisan printer. The problem is always the same, one or more of the colors stop printing and I have gone through all the maintenance steps over and over.
