Epson 1270 Summary:
What a beautiful printer---WHEN it's working well. I need to take it in for professional servicing frequently because it will start depositing black ink across the print, rendering it useless until it comes back from the shop again. This isn't a cleaning I can do at home, nor one the tech bench can do at the store, but has to be sent off, meaning 2-4 weeks of having it gone. SO, I just can't depend on it, and am going to have to buy a Canon or another brand. Strengths:
WHEN it's working well, it does produce beautiful color prints. I love the Premium Luster Photo Paper. Weaknesses:
Works well for a brief time before needing professional servicing again to eliminate the extraneous black ink lines, smears, blobs, etc. Also, even on a 'clean' print, you can see the lines produced by the tracter wheels, a row of little indentations. This shows up particularly on large sections of a solid color. I would have appreciated refillable Epson ink being made available, as I go through cartridges quickly and they're expensive.
