As a Self Representing Artist, I create my own Giclee prints for sale on Ebay and my website. Without the Epson Stylus Photo 2200 Inkjet Printer, I would be lost. This printer puts out the finest quality Giclees I've ever seen. Epson offers different types of paper for this printer so you can print on Watercolor paper, Glossy and even Canvas! The colors are true and do not run. There just isn't anything out there that can even compare to this little beauty and definitely not at the normal going price. It's a worthwhile investment for any Artist wanting to make their own prints. The ink in this printer is archival for 80+ years as long as you keep replacing it with the Epson ink. It has seven ink cartridges: Black, Light Black, Cyan, Light Cyan, Magenta, Light Magenta and Yellow. When you run out of ink in one, you only need to replace that one, not all the rest. I consider that to be very economical! This printer also comes with an automatic paper cutter that works with the rolled paper you can use with this amazing printer. This saves so much time when you are printing a dozen new prints that need to go out in the mail TODAY! Though this printer is larger than most desktop printers, it was very easily incorporated into my office setup in my home. If I can do it, you can to! If you are an Artist and are looking for THE printer that will make you comfortable with the prints you offer to the public, then this is the one to choose. I've had mine for almost two years now without any maintenance problems whatsoever. I hope this review has helped you in some small way. Thanks for reading!Read full review
It does a great job of printing my photos, wonderful color. I wish there was more instruction on using the ICC printer profiles as well as information in the manual on printing black and white photos. There is a lot of tweaking to get rid of color casts but I understand that happens with most ink jet printers. Overall it is an excellent printer, gets good reviews and has proven itself over time. The printer has been around since about 2002 so if you can come across a new or slightly used 2200 and you need a good printer at a good price, get it!
I have used plenty of Cannon and HP printers and have found Epson to be the best in terms of being true to color. If there is a purplish cast when you print, chances are it is not the printer. To print with Adobe you need to first print with preview, and let photoshop determine color. When the next screen comes up there is a drop down menu, on that there is a color settings option, click that and then select No Color Management, and print. If you do not click the no color management option YOU WILL GET THE PURPLE/ MAGENTA HUE! Learned this the hard way. Also if you change the color management and then the print settings and then print, you will also get the purple hue because the color management changes back to the wrong setting. Other than the pain in the but you have to go through to make sure it prints the right color, this printer is great, if you change the color management like I described above the prints are exactly like what you seen on the screen and is also pretty fast. Love the way you can check the ink levels and make it do head and nozzle cleaning. I will also repeat everyone's enthusiasm with the multiple ink cartridges, it saves a lot of money!Read full review
Don't put her out to pasture just yet, because the Epson 2200 is worth a look if you are considering a printer for digital photographs of medium size. Like the entire line of Epson not-quite-really-large format printers like the 1280 series, the 2200 will print up to 13 x 44. What is nice about an older model anything, is that the bugs have been identified and work arounds created for such issues as being able to confidently use after market bulk inks and papers. There are plenty of helpful posting on the internet to look at before buying, to see the weak points and available products. I do a lot of 13 x 19 full bleed printing and my old Epson 1280's were tired, but also the bulk dye inks were showing signs of fading. I wanted to offer a better product, so I tried a Canon PRO9000. They should have named it the Edsel. It won't print larger than 24 inches, unless it is in sections, so panoramas are out for starters. The Canon engineers should be congratulated for creating a chip issue with the cartridges that not even the Chinese after market wizards can outsmart. The price for an expensive headache that still uses dye inks, is twice that of a used Epson 2200. Don't forget that the Canon bubble jet system uses the ink to cool the print head, so run dry of a color, and you may have ruined the head rather than created a clog. The 2200 is a bit of a brute, but it is built to last much longer than the 1280 series and the prices are about the same for a used one. You can get parts for the 2200, including the print head, which is not available for the new Epson 1400 at this time. Did I mention that 2200's were originally sold with an electric paper cutter for doing production printing on lighter weight roll papers? For a great value and after market products, the Epson 2200 is worth a look for the photographer who wants to move up a step into pigment inks and archival prints.Read full review
This printer is an obsolete model but a favorite of graphic designers from seasons past. It is often referred to as "The Old Grey Mare". Dependable and sturdy, you can still find inks through Epson for it. It used to feature a roll of photo paper with a cutter attachment but it is hard to find the rolls to fit it anymore. If you order this item, you need to know that its age may present printhead problems and cleaning issues. Often the ink pads for this model are saturated and need cleaning. If the model you are looking at has print head issues listed then save your cash and wait for a newer item. Epson inks and quality are always recommendable and durable. Try the newer models instead.
