We really love this printer. The prints are some of the best we have seen from any digital printer. Colours are rich and accurate to the original photo
And the finish is second to none. Only when using a loupe can you tell the difference between the prints from the R3000 and a traditional dark room print.With professional printers
You usually have to sacrifice usability for features
But not so

No memory card readers, Slow on plain paper, Multiple setups can be fiddly
Epson Stylus Photo R3000 - Print Speeds A4 plain paper print speeds are pretty irrelevant on this machine, but for the sake of completeness we ran our tests, producing speeds of 0.8ppm on our five-page black text print and 1.6ppm on the black text and col...
Abstract: But even though photo printing is a neglected area in this screen-based age, great things have been happening. For starters, the basic quality of digital photos is far in excess now of what was available for professionals 10 years ago. But ink, paper and ...
Larger capacity ink cartridges don't bring huge savings, Print speeds are a tad sluggish

There is very little to physically fault the R3000 with. However it is not perfect. The printer uses high capacity ink cartridges, which do allow for more cost effective printing, but don’t expect refilling this printer to be cheap. Single inks cost somewhere in the region of £25 and there are 9 of them!That said, if you are professional photographer selling prints to clients or via public showin
This printer is not cheap, pricing itself at just under £700, however if you have need for a professional quality, quick printer the Espon Stylus Photo R3000 is the best we have reviewed. If you make money selling photographic prints in any way, or jus...
Good quality colour prints up to A3 size; WiFi option is welcome,
Nine inks make running costs expensive.
The R3000's nine pigments will be welcomed by some, and detested by others. Although the shared feed between Photo Black and Matt Black does appear a bit of a botch job - particularly given the need to flush the system between uses - it's a nice option...
Excellent photo quality, WiFi, ethernet, quiet, You can print on various papers, Matte black and glossy installed automatically, Large capacity cartridges (25.9 ml)
Poor responsiveness, Waste of black ink as 2 black cartridges share the same print head, Pricey
The R3000 keeps its promise of excellence when it comes to photo prints. It brings in a new interface, bigger capacity cartridges and improved connectivity. Its purchase price and consumables mean that it's destined for pro users....
Few photographers can fail to be impressed by the prints from the Epson Stylus Photo R3000, the colours, contrast and detail are superb. This plus the convenience its new cartridge arrangement makes it an excellent choice for enthusiasts. Some may be d...
