      does it use coloured inks to print in monochrome ?
      I've heard some computers use the coloured inks to print a composite black when printing double sided. So wasteful ! Can anyone tell me if this computer does that ?
      • This printer has one cartridge per colour, black, cyan, magenta and yellow and will use all cartridges for the best results for printing photographs.
        Some printers have an additional setting to change to mono only for simple letters and emails etc.

    Printer for mac

    After reading all the reviews I finally decided on this Epson printer instead of my usual big brand name who no longer supply software or drivers for Mac. This came with all the software and drivers for my m1 Mac mini and prints great photos and text. I’m still getting to grips with it but so far I am very happy.

    Relatively easy to set up as long as you have access to QR code on iPhone. Step by step guides were helpful and just taking small steps gets there.

    XP-8700 - Excellent Printer

    Our old Epson Expression XP 720 died after 8 years of excellent service even continuing to function after I replaced the ink pads following an end of service life error. So when it finally died another Epson Printer was top of the list. Settled on an equivalent printer the XP-8700. It arrived promptly and was very easy to set up using the Epson App. The quality of the prints is excellent, not the quietest printer but neither was the old one. Very easy to use and the initial ink cartridges are holding up well. Very pleased with the purchase.

    Exemplary Printer

    There are so many printers to choose from, and such a wide range of prices. However, based on my limited experience, I find it hard to imagine how I could have bought better than this Epson printer. It was delivered within 24 hours of ordering; fantastic! It was simplicity itself to install and set up. It is designed to work wirelessly, but my concern was that (as with my previous wireless printer) it would struggle to handle the data transfer for large colour photos. I needn’t have worried. It produced very good quality prints on A4 photo paper loaded into the main tray. I should think that, for the price, this one is hard to beat.
