Epson Stylus Photo 2200 Ink Jet Printer (C11C387011) Review

The Epson Photo Stylus 2200 is a truly impressive photo quality inkjet printer. We recently bought a used 2200 to use in our small business for printing product pictures and custom images for retail sales on very heavy card stock. The results have been nothing short of amazing!

The main features that made this the right choice for us were:

+ Individual ink cartridges – saves money in the long run since you only replace the ones that are empty (a good deal can be found here Epson 7 Color Ink Set with Photo Black for the Stylus Photo 2200 Inkjet Printer.)
+ Accepts Very Thick Card Stock – using the rear feed port
+ Outstanding Prints – the output is nothing short of amazing

My only complaint is that the rollers do need to be cleaned on occasion, but good instructions are found in the user manual. Hint: if you don’t have the cleaning pad that came with the printer, use a bit of a cotton material wrapped on the thin edge of a ruler.

Vista drivers (both 32 and 64 bit) can be downloaded from the Epson website.

This is a very good printer and they can now be found for a reasonable priced on the used market! Highly Recommended!

Amazon.com Product Description Designed with the serious graphics user in mind, Epson’s Stylus Photo 2200 is stylish and fast and comes packed with user-friendly features. With Epson’s new seven-color UltraChrome inks and three times as many nozzles as the popular Stylus 2000P, the 2200 is able to print 8-by-10-inch color photos in under two minutes (in fine mode). The UltraChrome inks are formulated to resist water and light damage and to ensure longevity, all while providing more colors than any other pigment ink on the market.

The versatile 2200 makes it easy to print on envelopes, roll paper, and many types and sizes of single-sheet paper.

A maximum resolution of 2,880 x 1,440 dpi (both color and black and white) results in amazingly accurate prints. The 4-picoliter droplets are the equivalent of 2-picoliter droplets in ordinary dye-base systems, resulting in ultrafine detail and clarity. Interchangeable standard and matte black ink cartridges help you get the best quality from black-and-white prints, while the included Film Factory(TM) with PRINT Image Matching Support software ensures that prints from compatible digital cameras are true to the original image.

The 2200 supports a wide variety of paper types, including glossy, semi-glossy, luster, matte, and Epson’s velvet fine art paper, as well as large-format sizes up to 13 by 44 inches. With the included roll paper holder and built-in automatic cutter, you can print borderless images easily, while a photo catcher neatly stacks multiple prints as they are cut.
