Customer Reviews

I have been using HP printers almost exclusively for over 20 years but my last three HP Printers have been getting progressively worse - my last one the HP 6500A was an absolute piece of junk and I am pretty sure it will be my LAST HP product. After a few weeks of research on what printer to move to and considering several Canon, Brother and Epson products I decided that the Epson 845 was probably the printer for me - and boy was I RIGHT! I've had this printer for a little over 6 weeks and this printer is AMAZING. I paid $199 and see it for $159 now...after using it I'd gladly pay $299.
Highpoints:
Speedy - this printer is much faster than the HP 6500 and the L7500 that I had before.
Print Quality - I never print photos so I can't comment on that but for business (I work from home) it is great for Powerpoint presentations and contracts. The 2 sided printing is remarkably easy to use and actually works, something that never happened on the HP 6500.
Wireless - I have a home office. I and my family all use this printer. I use it for work, my kids for school and college work. This printer joined my wifi nework effortlessly and has given me 0 trouble. Amazingly simpler than my previous HPs and it "warms up" in a fraction of the time my previous HP printers needed.
Mac Compatible - I have 5 Macs that use this printer. Using HP products I had just accepted that getting printer drivers working on a Mac required carrying the printer around the house and plugging the printer into the Mac that needed to access it was just part of the "setup process". The Epson 845 was UNBELIEVABLY SIMPLE. All of my Macs (2 iMacs, Macbook Pro, 2 Macbook Airs) all saw the printer on my Wifi network and immediately started working with the printer. I have NEVER had a printer work so well with my Apple Products. It is both Snow Leopard AND Lion compatible.
Screen - The instrument panel is amazing. It's HUGE, easy to see, very intuitive and actually folds away when not in use.
Copier - Awesome! My HPs always made "dark" copies - this one is almost perfect reproduction. Huge upgrade.
Low Points:
I only have a few items I'd improve on - not really complaints but nothing is "perfect"
It's Big - This is not a petite printer. I'm not sure how much they could shrink it and keep all the features but it is full figured.
The paper trays and paper guides feel flimsy. The printer is very light despite it's size but I am worried that I might break one of these trays or the paper guide that catches the paper as it comes out of the printer if I'm not careful. Hasn't happened but it does worry me. Not sure what you do if this happens.
Bottom line - for a home / office printer, especially one shared wirelessly between multiple users this printer is an absolute DREAM! HP - I'm never coming back.

After my HP OfficeJet died after 6 1/2 years, I began doing an in-depth analysis of all mid-range All-In-Ones multi-function printers that met my wish list. There was a tie between the Epson Workforce 875, the Canon Pixma line of AIO's, and the HP AIO's. I decided to go with the Epson because of the features, the reviews, and the price. It's only been 4 hours but I've decided to return it.
The first thing I noticed when I played with the print settings is that the Fast Economy and Economy print quality is so poor that you have to print in Normal mode just to have text you can actually read. On those 1st two modes, the print came out jagged and letters weren't filled in all the way. I even changed out the paper to see if it printed any better - it didn't.
I then downloaded the Epson i-Print app for my iPhone and printed a picture taken with my new iPhone. I put premium glossy photo paper in the printer and printed five different ways and the pictures came out muddy and with horizontal and vertical lines. There's no way it could compare to the prints I order from an online digital print company like Shutterfly.
Epson online support advises that users running Mac OS X 10.6 or 10.7 that wish to use the SCAN BUTTON on the front of the printer MUST connect to the printer with a USB cable. The whole entire Epson Scan software does NOT work with Mac OS X 10.6 or 10.7. (I guess it defeats the whole idea of wireless scanning). Furthermore, the ABBEY FineReader software that is included that converts scanned documents to Editable Text (OCR) is not supported on Mac OS X 10.7 either, contrary to the manufacturer's representations.
