 good print quality but poor design August 7, 2007

I had a CX4600 before I was sent a CX4800, which was fortunately covered and replaced under warranty due to the clogging issue many people have covered. I like the print quality of Epson printers, but unfortunately that's overshadowed by poor printer design.
That said, the trick with these printers is twofold:
1. TURN THE PRINTER OFF when you're not using it. Don't leave it on for extended periods of time. This causes the ink to dry out.
2. YOU MUST PRINT and/or run a cleaning cycle at AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH, if not more, to keep the ink from drying up in the waste ink hoses, which is the source of the worst clogs. It's even in the Epson manual, p30: "If you do not use your Epson Stylus CX often, it is a good idea to print a few pages at least once a month to maintain good print quality".
It's a bit involved to repair yourself, but it can be done. Do a Google search for "inkjetprinterhelp" and you'll find a web site that has some comprehensive instruction on how to fix.
Shame on Epson for producing such a poor quality printer design.
 This printer is a great buy August 6, 2007

I have really liked this printer. I don't understand the complaints about photo printing because I think it prints good quality photos. It IS slow, but that isn't important to me. It's frugal on ink, and I like the ability to replace individual color cartridges as they run out.
