Comment: Would love to post on how this printer works but alas it does not. We are currently waiting on the delivery of our second replacement printer. YES I SAID 2ND REPLACEMENT! Neither one worked out of the box. We have over two hours invested sitting on the phone speaking with customer service (they have treated us very well but that doesn't get our pictures printed.)They asked numerous questions to determine if it was our fault or a device problem and both times said it is the device. Same error both times, I think there is a manufacturing problem.

Summary: Another AMAZING Epson Printer
Comment: Except for my first Okidata dot matrix printers back in the 80's (yes I'm that old), I've only ever owned Epson printers because they are the BEST in terms of print quality, non-smearability, features, speed, and overall quality. I pre-ordered this one back in Aug 2008. Got it as soon as it was out and am equally amazed at this one. Should be called an "Almost All-in-One" since it doesn't have a built-in fax machine. But if you don't need that feature, this printer is perfect. First it's a GORGEOUS shiny black printer out of the box, if you care about that stuff. Makes me sad that we hide ours in a wall unit. I had the printer totally unpacked, setup and ready to use in 15 minutes (including installing the software for wireless). It's laid out perfectly and I love the "Tilt" front panel so you can see it/use it easier (just don't forget to "unlock" it to push it back down. I LOVE the separate paper compartments in one tray for both 8x11 plus 4x6 or 5x7 photo paper. And the built-in print wizard makes printing unusual photos a snap. Since we've only had it a couple of weeks, can't comment on reliability yet. But we've owned 4 Epson printers in the last 18 years or so, and only had a problem with one (screen on our Photo RX600 went black after about 4 months), which Epson immediately shipped us a new, upgraded model (Photo RX620) for free. They didn't wait to receive our old one first. That's great service. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

Summary: Exceptional all in one!
Comment: I ordered this for what seemed to be the perfect mix of features that would be convenient for my family (occasional copying and scanning, printing color output for the kids, and printing photos). The wireless connection feature made it possible to not clutter the family room (already home to a laser printer and desktop).

OK, it's beautiful just sitting there - but it also works like a dream. Setting it up to add it to my secured pre-N network was a breeze. Printing over the wireless network worked fine (even with my printer being 2 rooms away from my router). The output is quick, and the prints on ultra- or premium photo paper are beautiful. The included tray lets you load regular and photo paper (and just select the one you want) for printing.

The unit has a card reader, that lets you print directly from a card. A cool feature is that you can also scan directly to a card as well. For some reason, I thought it could scan across the network, but a call to (very polite) tech support confirmed that this cannot be done. The scanner seems to be a bit slower (in auto mode) than my Epson Perfection 3170, but I haven't compared it systematically.

This is perfect for a home office, and for a family with kids.

Summary: Awesome Printer
Comment: I just got the Epson Artisan 700 delivered to me last night. [...] Even with the free ship I had it in 2 days. So far I love this printer. I have had other Epson printers but this one is by far the bestest. With the help of my hubby via cell phone I was able to install a wireless USB adapter and get the printer running wireless. It has so many great features and comes with very nice software too. I was up till midnight playing around printing photos and testing out the scanning and copying and all. I can't wait to make some very cool projects with it. I highly recommend this printer. I chose the 700 because I don't need a fax and I don't think I would need the auto scan either.
