I owned a Epson Photo printer back in 98 and then in 2005 got the Photo Stylus 340 and I used it till it finally dies and then got another 340 and then this year had to get a replacement since it wasn't doing too well. I will not get another PHOTO printer as long as I live since no one can tell my photos I print on photo paper that that you get from a professional photo shop. No one cam tell the difference between their or mine....

I fault the Epson for three reasons. One, print heads clog very quickly, Two unless you have your ink surplus hooked up to an outside container the pads will fill quite quickly and cause maintenance problems that require service techs and that is expensive. Three, I purchased this printer especially for the direct printing to CD's and DVD's capability. Worked great for a while, now I have to nudge the tray to get it to forward. I have purchased four of the 340 model, one is still working. I have since purchased the canon MK922 and it is so much better in all respects.

I got this printer about a month ago. I'm about half way through my second set of ink cartridges, and I've been happy with the quality of the prints. This is a good printer, and it has some nice features. It is a six color photo printer, so the prints are far more detailed than a cheap 4 color inkjet. It also uses seperate ink cartridges, so you can replace only the empty color and not waste ink. Inkjet photo paper gives a far better print than standard copy paper, but it is much more expensive. Using the memory card slots and the small display lets you print without even turning on your computer. The computer can access a card in the printer, but for some reason if the card's contents are changed by the computer the printer won't realize it unless you remove the card and put it back in. You can print on CDs and DVDs with the included tray, and there is also an insert for the tray to print on mini CDs and DVDs. The included software works, but it isn't that user friendly. It WILL keep you from overspraying outside of the disc's surface, but that's about the best thing about it. Overall, this is a good printer, but there is nothing new or revolutionary about it. Nice features, good print quality and speed, and fairly quiet while printing.Read full review
This is the second R340 I've purchased. I bought my first one years ago to replace an R300, and the R340 has been a real champ. Because I go through a lot of ink printing CDs, I did put a continuous ink system on the printer, as well as an ink recovery bottle on the back. These two options/modifications to the printer not only make it cheap to operate, but extend the life (as I think I got two or three ink pad resets out of my previous R340, before the black on the print head degraded to the point where the unit was no longer usable -- and thus I purchased this used unit, which works just fine).
I, bought this to do small runs of cds. I have a small recording company and i wanted to be able to put out specific small numbers of several types of cd prints at one time with out having to order a large number from a professional print place. So far the machine does a great job of this. It does NOT kick out the cd as i had heard before it prints.....its not really easy to do takes constant changing of cd etc.....one thing i think should be improved on is the little peice of clear plastic on the cd tray....it is not only vital to the printing but it is fragile also. So they should either sell trays seperately or make that piece more sturdy. It is that piece of plastic being removed or bent that i think makes the machine kick out the cd tray .....so those that did that previously its probably why theirs didnt work they removed that thinking it was part of the packaging. I have to keep making sure that its not bent and thats the one big thing i dont like about this. HEY EPSON FIX THE DARN PIECE OF PLASTIC......however having said that for the price i guess i couldnt ask for much more it does what i needed it to do always seems to print well. Oh yah and buy my cd look for LARRY ROE on ebayRead full review
