Принтер струйный Epson WorkForce 1100, цветн., A3 — 101 отзывов, плюсы и минусы

Great printer, great price, we were very pleased and plan on running dye sub for art transfers for various textiles.

This is the second one of these units we have bought just for making heat press transfers (making t-shirts) and it's fast, reliable and prints very smooth. There are refill kits out there that make it even better to use. This price is crazy! We are going to order a couple more of them just to keep on hand.

One the plus side, the finished product from this printer looks fantastic. That, unfortunately, is the only thing on the plus side. It is very slow, and uses up so much ink. It is designed to use 2 black ink cartridges so that you can change less frequently. The added print time is so minimal that it isn't even worth it. As for the high-yield cartridges, they print maybe 50 pages more than the regular yield. And having 3 separate cartridges for the color hasn't been any better. On average, I am getting perhaps 20 pages extra from the less needed colors. As well, I have had a difficult time getting it to work again after the too-frequent cartridge changes.

My use is unconventional, so take comments in context. I'm an illustrator and bought this for printing black line art on watercolor paper. It's not as sharp as a laser printer, but it takes large, heavy paper and the ink is 98% waterproof, which is great.The drivers included are not up-to-date with Mac snow leopard or lion, so you have to download drivers online.

This printer consumes way too much ink. Very slow driver and slow interface overall. Annoying messages when ink is low. It won't print anything at all even when there is a little ink in the cartridge.

This is the worst printer ever, the price is cheap to suck you in but it goes through ink like crazy and Epson ink is very expensive. Tried to use recycled non OEM cartidges and they won't work. Never buy an Epson, they sell cheap printer to suck consumers into buying lots of expensive ink, they are totally junk.It doesn't even deserve one star but you have to rate it.

We have a small architecture studio and it works great for us. Low production requirements, but we need a good quality photography printer for presentations and this fits the bill. Almost as clear as our lazerjet for line work too, especially if you go to high res. It's a good replacement for our Epson 1280 that died after 6 years for some unknown reason.

I put in 5/5 stars for affordability, print quality, and print speed, but only one star for the product overall. Why?I purchased this two days ago from OfficeMax. I am a Graphic Designer and was in need of a large format inkjet printer.I used up the two black cartridges that came with it within the two days since I purchased this printer, and I had also purchased two spares of the proper brand and number.When I try to install the ink cartridges, the printer tells me they are unrecognizable, despite being EXACTLY what the printer requires.I have no idea how to fix this, and I am on a deadline for everything I need to print. What I have printed so far was just the tip of the iceberg.This printer is only as good as long as the original cartridges it came with last. I hate Epson.

Love the wide format, it is used to print editable sheets in cake decorating. Easy setup great color and does from 3x5 to 13x19, all for $99.00.

I had the older version of this printer. This one is much better and faster and has the three seperate color cartidges rather than all three colors in one cartridge. It was easy to set up and get operating.

I got this printer to print on 11x17 heat transfer paper for t-shirts decoration. Works great! Durabrite ink not fading even after t-shirt is going through the washing and drying machines.

The epson workforce 1100 is the first epson printer I have tried. Actually I have now tried two epson workforce 1100's.I returned the first one for a replacement after having print nozzle clogging problems from day one. Went through two sets of ink cartridges on the first day trying to clean the print nozzles. My second epson preformed better out of the box, but keep your box if you do purchase this printer. I have used this printer now for about six months and it also has been an ink wasting-nozzle clogger like my old 1100. Epson's support solution on this issue was to turn off the printer when not in use. They said it was the only way to stop the ink flow from the cartridges and close the print nozzles. I found this not to solve the problem, since sometimes it would print five or ten copies fine then clog during the active print.Currently all the color print nozzles are clogged and it will not clear out, no matter how many cleaning cycles I have tried. At best it is now just a black and white printer or a huge paper weight.

I was looking for a wide format printer and wasn't interested in color printing, so being a four-color printer and not being a photo printer, wasn't a concern for me. Next let me state I've returned this item to Amazon and have to say that their RMA process is outstanding! With that said I'll move on to my thoughts.As stated above I wasn't using it as a color printer and have no opinion on it's color performance. I printed approximately 10 B&W prints and it jammed on the other 20 or so attempts. I tried various paper weights and sizes, when it jammed 1/3 of the way on standard letter size paper, I through in the towel.I liked the fact that this printer used two black ink cartridges, sounded perfect for what i was doing. I was printing replacement clock faces, so it would be using minimal ink, but each time it jammed it would re-clean the itself, which uses ink. Within 1 day, both black ink cartridges showed a 33% use.I couldn't recommend this printer to anyone, the fact that it stated jamming could have just been a fluke related to just this one unit. But the way it used ink and the wait time on start up and during re-cleaning, makes this printer a dud. I have since ordered the "Canon PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II Inkjet Photo Printer" which was the original printer I was interested in before I decided to go cheap! Very satisfied with the Cannon, sometimes you just got to pay to play!

This printer is an ink hog. Cost way too much to operate. Check out the price of the ink before you buy.

The Workforce 1100 should of been named the Work "Horse" 1100. This printer is a beast and reliable. It measures over 2 Feet in length and 12.75 inches high. Very easy to install, just plug it in, insert the ink cartridges and follow the software instructions on connecting the USB cable. THIS UNIT DOES NOT COME WITH A PRINTER USB CABLE. I recommend the Belkin F3U133-10 Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Cable (10 Feet) or the Belkin F3U133-06 Pro Series Hi-Speed USB Cable (Six-Feet), both are very affordability priced.The printout quality is unbelievable great. I have attached a photo on in the image gallery to show you how a photo printed on heavy cardstock comes out clean and with no streaking, color bleeding or horizontal lines like most inkjets printers do. The print speed is quite a bit faster than the average inkjet printer and the quality of the print exceeds any other inkjet printer I have ever used. It is extremely quiet even though it is so large. Since it has some weight to it, it sits sturdy with no vibrations.Energy Star qualified which means it help help with energy costs, states it uses up to 70% less energy than a laser printer. The ink is affordable and does last for some time. I currently own the Epson Stylus Color CX5000 All In One Printer and the ink lasts for several months with continuous use.This printer will print on the smallest index cards up to wide format projects with 13" wide paper. This may sound foolish but one thing I really found convenient is how easy it is to slide the paper guide to the edge of the paper inserted in the tray. It slides smoothly without any hesitation.If you are looking for a color printer that will be able to print any project you wish to tackle - from spreadsheets, pie and bar graphs to posters and signs - this is the perfect printer!UPDATE: Thanks to the research from another Amazon user (see comment section), you are able to use both the 68 and 69 series ink cartridges. According to the Epson website you will be able to get 50% more prints if you are using the 69 series. This works out great for me since I have an all-in-one Epson printer that uses the 69 series and now I can just use one ink series instead of purchasing two different types.Ink cartridges:Epson 68 Series DURABrite High Capacity Color Multipack (T068520)Epson 68 Black Ink Cart Hi capacity Dual PackEpson 69 Series DURABrite Ultra Color Ink Cartridges - Multipack (T069520)Durabrite Ultra 69 Series Ink Black (T069120)

I really like this printer which I bought to use on wider paper. I like the quality, the colors, and the speed. HOWEVER, it forces me to change ink cartidges BEFORE quality is degraded. I usually do a lot of draft printing, to save ink, and when the ink light remains lit, I have no option other than to put in a new cartridge. According to Epson, this cannot be overridden. What a waste..

I bought this primarily to print my black and white sketches on watercolor paper and paint over! The ink dries waterproof and sharp! It's an awesome printer for the price and I love that it can print larger format paper!

Please do yourself a favor and stay away from this printer. I'm not going to get into how bad this printer is, you can read the reviews yourself. Bottom line if you want a printer to last for more than a year don't buy this printer.

I'm a high school journalism teacher. I bought this printer so we could print 11x17 copies of our newspaper pages for editing before sending to our commercial printer. This Epson Workforce 1100 is one of the worst printers I have ever purchased, and I've used a number of printers, including Brother, HP, Canon, and other Epsons.An earlier reviewer said it best: this thing consistently clogs, and as a result drains ink at an alarming rate. Even worse, though, are the paper jams. Either the paper won't feed, or when it does it pulls to the side, or pulls multiple pages at the same time through the feeder.I think I'll be opting for the Canon PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II based on its reviews and my previous positive experience with Canon printers.

This has been the best printer I've ever owned! I can't wait to try printing a very long spreadsheet that I normally have to print out in 3 sections. Wish the paper wasn't so expensive for it.

I bought the Epson Workforce 1100 Color Inkjet Wide Formant printer from Amazon and the delivery time was exceptional. I got the product as was advertised and it works perfect, output quality is very good and the speed is above average. Met all my printing needs.

Printer used to work fine but then it started to act up. We went through the Epson online support and then to telephone support. The problem turned out to be that this printer has only been tested for a 6' USB cable. We need a 15' cable because of the large size of this printer makes it difficult to place and Epson had nothing to say about this. Almost a good printer.

First this printer is huge, (and heavy!) keep that in mind and pay close attention to the dimensions.Second the print quality is outstanding, one page on maximum quality, one page on high speed, they both came out excellent.Thirdly, its a little loud. Even for a work printer it seems a tad on the loud size compared to both the laser and ink printers we use at work. [-To be fair, my unit was broken, so maybe thats an unfair assesment.]Fourthly... no usb cable included. Give me a break. I know certain A/V companies can get away with it, and have found selling 'premium' cables a huge revenue area, but this is a printer. It should have absolutely come with everything needed to set it up.[Lastly, my printer stopped working after its 2nd page. This is clearly marketed as a work grade printer. And it worked twice for me... now nothing but incredibly loud grinding noises when it tries to print a page. It should be commercial grade. Being in sales, I could lose deals not having materials when needed. After spending an hour on the phone with various customer service reps (apparently no one could find the proper support dept), I was told since they closed in 45 minutes, they'd most likely get to me on Monday. I explained I had a deadline and really needed to get the problem sorted out today, he said he'd note that... but no call back.]-See Update.UPDATE:A very helpful person from Epson contacted me yesterday and overnighted a replacement out to me.After talking to several of my employees who saw the printer delivered, they said the delivery guy threw it onto the ground. (See comment 1, it's HEAVY). I can't fault Epson for that. And any company that will overnight you a replacement is pretty ok in my book! And the initial pages printed well, so I will update if I have any new problems...Someone commented that the USB situation is pretty common these days in the industry. Thats a bummer, but as my parrents used to say, just because everyones doing it, doesn't mean its ok!All in all, I'm going 4 out 5.

I use this large format printer for all my garden design projects. I've owned this printer for about 10 months. The 11x17 sheet size accommodates most of my plans and work sketches. The print quality, speed and device price were factors in selecting this printer. I haven't been disappointed. Additionally, I discovered that this printer accepts a heavy paper (Strathmore Bristol smooth 100 lb, avail. in retail art supply stores) which gives my presentations a more professional touch. I don't print large high-quality photos, but draft-quality work reference photos print without streaks. My only complaint, as with all inkjet printers, is I feel that the ink cartridges (even high-capacity) have to be replaced too often and are too expensive.

For the money, you are getting an awesome machine. Setup was a snap. If you can follow directions, you'll be printing in a few minutes. If you cant...maybe printing isnt for you. Includes full size print cartridges, not the 2 page wonders you normally get. I like the multi-cartridge idea. Print quality is excellent. NOTE- This is not a photo printer. It doesnt claim to be a photo printer. If thats what your after, you need to spend 3 or 4 times more.I cant figure out why so many people are surprised at the size. It's a no brainer that something that prints WIDE FORMAT 13" x 19" paper is going to be much larger. And then there is the fact that the dimensions are clearly stated. You wouldnt buy a long bed pickup and then be surprised because it's long, would you? And the fact that there is no cable should be obvious as well. A- They are trying to cut costs to get the price down as far as possible, and B- Everyones cable length needs are different, so why not save the cost of a cable the customer may not be able to use and let them get what they need with the savings. A great plan in my mind. We had a longer cable we bought for our other printer that worked perfectly and it was free!So you dont think I'm an Epson employee waving the banner, there are a couple things I dont care for. The warm up time is a little longer than my other printers. As the unit is geared for business I would expect networking capabilities, but no such luck.Seriously, for the money you are getting a great wide format printer. Excellent value. Oh, and I found a place online that has 24lb 13x19 paper in 500pk for about $32 which is half what I was expectiong. I love it when something actually does what it claims it will do.

We have only great things to say about theworkforce 1100 printer. It has vastly improvedour speed with the clarity it produces. Great product.

The Epson Workforce 1100 is great. It's a handsome piece of equipment, too - it may take up a good amount of space, but it looks great doing it! Both color and black & white prints come out quickly and quietly.The only downside to this printer is the size of the ink cartridges. I only use the printer for specific projects, so my use is more as a secondary printer and the small ink cartridges are no big problem for me.Setup was a breeze and it performs spectacularly within my installation of Windows 7 Professional. I really enjoy my wide format printer much more than I had originally anticipated...flowcharts are much nicer blown up on a 13" x 19" sheet than on the typical 8.5" x 11" - I absolutely love it!

I was a bit sceptical when purchasing this printer as it has no reviews, but in the end the only comparable model was an HP with bad reviews so I went for it. I ordered off Epson's site and was shocked that the printer got here the next day. I don't like the size, going from a normal printer to this...well it took me a hours worth of cleaning to find room for this 24*15 inch printer. After I got it all set up(it was a breeze) I printed one of my scrapbook layouts out. It printed much faster than I imagined and I didn't even have to wait for it to dry before I could get my hands all over it. The quality is so much better than my old Canon i850, and I loved that printer. I love the ease of use and ability to go to online support(or to order ink) straight from the software.The ink is very affordable even from Epson's site. When choosing a printer I now always look for the separate color ink tanks and love the fact that this printer came with not only 4 cartridges but 5. I also like that even from Epson you can order high capacity or standard cartridges.Now to the part I don't like. I have tried a few different brands of printer paper. And all of them gave me a reflective black which I personally can't stand in my photos. The only two brands which didn't do this(of my tests) were Print Works High Gloss and Epson. I mainly use Matte finish which looked great with all the brands I tested.The final scoop. I recommend this printer to anyone. I paid 125 dollars for this printer(used a coupon) and I know that I will get my monies worth out of it. I find it great for scrap booking(beats sending spreads out for 1.99 a piece) The problems with non-epson paper gripes me but all in all I find the purchase and up-keep on this printer very affordable.

If you just need an occasional print (that is, if you're not using it every day) this is a poor choice. The ink heads WILL clog, and no amount of clean cycles will clear them. Also, after just 6 months of light use, the feeder mechanism would not work more often than not. I've just replaced this printer (with a non-epson product) after less than a year and what a relief to finally be rid of it. (Sad to see Epson turn out garbage like this -- about 10 years ago I bought a large-format Epson that produced thousands of beautiful color pages over 5 or so years...)

The color prints from this unit are the best of any printer I've ever used. I also have a canon mp, and comparing prints side by side the canon prints are sad. The epson is kind of loud and clunky, but that doesn't really matter to me. I paid $129 delivered, and for that price it's a steal.

I am a very happy owner of an Epson Workforce 600, so I was excited to receive this wide format printer for review. Like other Epson Workforce series printers, the 1100 has a fast printing mechanism and quality that rivals laser output (depending on the paper stock).Is this printer for everyone? Definitely not. First it's big (although not as large as a wide format laser), so those with tight space may want to think about whether they really need to print on paper wider than 8.5 inches. It also lacks a network interface, so it must be tethered to a computer or a compatible third party print server.Epson is not marketing this product as a photo printer. While the image quality of the 1100 is excellent, those looking for wide format photos should consider a photo printer designed for that purpose. Photos will print on the 1100, but there are better printers on the market that will produce more vibrant photo prints.The Workforce 1100 is great, however, for businesses looking for a little more flexibility in the size of prints they can make without having to invest in expensive hardware and consumables.PROs----1. As fast as an entry level to mid-range laser printer.2. Excellent print quality.3. Uses standard epson ink cartridges.4. Very reasonably priced.CONs----1. It is disappointing that a printer marketed to business lacks network connectivity.2. Not designed for photo printing.3. USB cable is not included.4. Mac Snow Leopard users will need to download device driver software before installing.

'Draft' mode, which is all I need for most things, only worked for a short time. 'Draft' is 'streaked.' Printer whines and moans for a long time when starting up.

I use this printer for my business and it meets my needs very well. It is a great value for a large format printer.

The main reason I ordered this printer was to print off film positives for screen printing.This printer is awesome. The blacks are truly opaque and I use it for all my printing applications and we still have no run out of ink. Films come out dark and burn on the screens much better than the Lexmark POS we were using before.The print speed is a little slow but not too bad for the price and for big graphics. Very user friendly.One con, the thing is flipping huge and heavy. Built like tank.Kudos to Amazon: At first we never received the printer. Checked the FEDEX website and the status was delivered. The signature was not mine and I never received the item. E-mailed Amazon and 2 days later the printer was on my door step.THANKS AMAZON!

If you use Windows 7 the Workforce 1100 printer will install just fine with Epson's Window 7 compatible driver. Then after a week or two it will cease to function. You will then contact Epson Support, they tell you your printer doesn't print anymore because of Microsoft issues. They will then hang up in your face, then you will go buy a Canon printer with valuable lesson about Epson products learned.

I purchased this as a favor to my mother and she loves the printer and the fact that she's now able to print all the pictures that she takes with her digital camera, but the ink is ridiculous after a couple of pictures the color quality wanes meaning that if your like my mother and looking to pursue your photos as a business or print a lot of pictures your going to eat through a lot of ink and Epson's color cartridges are not cheap. My mother has taken to buying cheaper color refill kits to avoid having to buy so much of the expensive ink

I ordered this, it came on the day it was supposed, only without a warranty, instruction book or driver. It was for Christmas, When it was opened and we realized what was missing an email was sent to Amazon. You were no help.I called Epson, and was told that they were on vacation till january 4th. I called January 4th and was told it would be shipped overnight fed ex. I did not receive it and called again on January 9th. I was hung up on. I called again and asked for the woman's supervisor, told her the whole story, who said the operator said that I cursed her out..ABSOLUTELY NOT True. She also told me that they were not closed for Christmas, that they were opened the whole time. Amazon also told me they were closed. Will not purchase from Amazon again. I have bought music and downloaded it, but will not purchase any other product that has to be shipped.

I love this printer! The print quality is very high and it's easy to use. A big bonus was that I got it with 48hrs. of placing the order.

Though I only had it so far for one week, I find the Epson WorkForce 1100 Printer to be working excellent. Setting up was like pouring drink into a glass.....quite easy! I've been searching diligently for months for a (laser) printer to print on 300gsm card, and found very few, which obviously would cost just as much as the foundation of a new home. The Workforce 1100 does this with ease, and also prints 11x17 and 13x19 size documents, not to mention the inks that are fade, smudge & water resistant, which is paramount with my type of business. The inks are cheaper than if I took my wife to lunch, which makes this printer very cost effective. The print quality is good for what i'm doing, but yet I have to print photos to comment any further on print quality. I recommend this printer, as a matter of fact, I have 2 other Epson models in my Amazon shopping cart to purchase.

I like the printer overall for the quality of the print.However, there are 2 major cons.The size of the unit, and the setup.Based on the setup instructions, the unit needs to be connected in, loaded with toner, and powered up, and software installed in a specific order. (i.e. it's not just plug and play) It took about 20 to 30 minutes to set up the unit.The overall speed is "ok", but not wonderful, and the unit is huge.It would not be practical for the average persons home office space.I'm assuming the size is for it's ability to print in larger formats, but again, that's not practical for a home user.Overall the quality of print is very good, but at about 20 cents per page at a copy shop for color copies/prints, it's better to just keep your files portable, and print that way.

If you want a reasonable wide formate (up to 13 inches wide) then this is the printer for you. Separate inks are also a plus. Double black cartridges, and single color cartridges are a nice feature. However, if you want exceptional print quality then this may not be the printer for you. I have a Photosmart HP printer and the print quality surpasses this printer. With that being said, if you want a reasonably priced wide formate printer that will not break the bank then by all means this is the printer for you.

Epson has installed this nasty software that detects non generic Epson ink and will give you an error message that asks you to buy their expensive Epson Ink. The four ink cartridges color cost $50.99 and black costs 37.99, total cost 88.98. I estimate that you can print about 10 8.5"by11" if you are lucky because they have designed very small cartridges that hardly keep any ink. This is a very large printer so they could have designed cartridges that are 5 times as large. In other words, it is a real ripp off. Stay away.

We use this printer only for printing pdf building plans at 13x19". It makes great prints and has not presented any problems as of yet. For the money you probably can't go wrong.Update: Printer suddenly failed after one year and seven days. Seven days out of warranty. Probably printed 150 13x19 plans in that period. Spent an afternoon reinking, rebooting, unplugging, trying another computer, and emailing epson etc. Printer feeds paper, cartridges move back and forth as if printing but no ink is distributed. But at $109 (now) and free shipping, I'm getting another one.

We got this to make printing architectural drawings faster than our supersized printer that prints 24" x 42". We paid over 1500 for that printer and I've hated it since the day it was installed. This epson printer, doesnt print that size, but it has not once backed up or eaten the paper or smudged ink everywhere. For less than 200 dollars, this was one of our best investments. I've also tried using it for photos, but it wasnt designed for that purpose so I cant judge its performance on that. It does print a little slow for high quality prints but that can be expected on all printers. I would recommend this to anyone needing 11x17 prints.

Very happy with this printer. Upgraded from the Epson Photo Stylus 1270. This printer is fast and prints quality photos and documents.Large, heavy and a little noisy "when winding up" but no big problem. Great value.
