Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Very fast and excellent quality prints.
Weaknesses:The price of ink as always.
Overall Evaluation: I've owned the R280 for a few months now and it's worked very well. So far I'm satisfied with all the Epson printers I have bought. The speed and quality have definitely improved since I bought the last one in 1999! However the price of ink has gone up too. I think I'll go with the Continuous Ink System (CIS) to combat that weakness.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Good print quality, nice resolution for photos, prints directly to CD/DVD's
Weaknesses:Ink is stupid expensive
Overall Evaluation: I love using this printer. Print quality is very good and its prints directly to CD/DVD's. I got my printer free when I purchased a digital camera with it. I now know why Epson gives away the printer. Because they will make it up in ink. Ink prices are ridiculous. Unfortunately, I have not found any generics that perform as well as OEM. The search continues for a good ink alternative.

Duration of ownership: 14 Days
Strengths: Quality prints, works well on CD / DVD, fast printing, individual ink tank, cheap after the rebate.
Weaknesses:Paper jam, uses ink fast and expensive to replace all ink tanks.
Overall Evaluation: This is a good entry level printer for photos and printing CDs / DVDs. Got it free after rebate with digital camera purchase. But it uses ink very fast. So long term ownership cost is higher than Canon one.

Duration of ownership: 30 Days
Strengths: Unique CD/DVD printing, Excellent Photo Inks
Weaknesses:none
Overall Evaluation: This is a unique photo printer from Epson that is capable of printing onto CD/DVDs directly (assuming the CD/DVD has a printable top). Photo printouts are excellent from this printer. it has individual ink tanks so you only need to change whichever tank is empty. unfortunately ink tanks dont last that long and are slightly expensive, but the photo prints are excellent.
