The printer is BRAND NEW! It prints really awesome photos and I really appreciate the rapid shipping and the extra ink cartridges.

Device fails to print anything using brand new cartridges on both Windows 7 and Mac OS X 10.12. Apparently, the print nozzles are clogged so badly that ink can not be deposited on paper. Tried cleaning the heads using the Epson Print Utility and sending test prints and the only thing that happens is that the print head moves back and forth and ejects a blank sheet of paper from the tray.

I am an artist and graphic dessigner. My Epson C84 provided me with top notch prints. It was a work horse for me for about two years printing almost every day (and I pruchased it new for only $75). I made the proper setting "best Photo" in the proper window before printing and the colors were vibrant and objects were clear. The Dura Ink resists fading and when it finally died, I had a hard time replacing it with another C84. Epson no longer makes this model and the newer models don't run with my older operating system (Mac). Many professional artists have their artwork reproduced with Epson professional purpose printers because they can duplicate the colors so well. I like the fact the there are four (4) iink cartridges so I only replace the ones that go dry. I f I don't run it for a week or more, I remover the cartridges and place them in a a resealable zip lock plastic bag. The inks will dry out if they are not usedbecause they are liquid. I would highly recommentd Epsons printers to anyone. I tried an HP but the colors just couldn't match the output of the Epson. The HP was a waste of my time and money. I would highly recomment Epson printers to anyone. I can't understand the negative reviews. If the printer is used often, the inks will always work til they run out. If you make the proper settings in the window for the type of paper or photo paper used and the quality you want, it is unmatched (you have many options with the settings). I think many lay people don't do either and therefore think this is a mediocre printer. It is not!Read full review
...the C84 is no exception. I'm reading through the bad reveiws that other people have left and can't believe it. I have only ever had minimial problems with any Epson printer I've owned. Not only that, but Epson has some of the best customer service around. They are so helpful if you have any trouble installing, etc. If you take care of a printer, it will take care of you. Regular maintence on the print-heads is always a good idea. I would also suggest the re-manufactured ink cartridges if you are looking to save a few bucks. The C84 is also a bargain for people looking to do sublimation. Many companies sell bulk ink flow systems for this printer. I give the C84 a 4/5 rating. Look for people on eBay selling ones that are new and still in the box. If you buy used, you never know how the printer was treated before it got to you!Read full review
Like most inkjet printers, the jets clog after some period of use. I purchased this printer to replace one which suffered that infirmity, and for which the cost of repairing the unit exceeded the cost of replacing it,...particularly since I'd stocked up on ink cartridges. This printer is certainly not perfect, or the clogging would not have occurred in the first place, but, as inkjets go, it's the best I have owned, and I recommend it for dependability. Finest features are 1) it works flawlessly on USB from Linux, 2) I can print a stack of 9 business size envelopes at a time by making some adjustments in "page setup." It's reasonably fast with envelopes, and I'd buy another one at this price, if I needed to do so. I used it for several years before the problem with clogged jets occurred.Read full review
