The editors liked
The print quality is stunning
Easily the best pigment ink prints that we have seen. Detail is very good
Virtually indistinguishable from a good dye ink printer. Glossy prints are rich with only the slightest hint of “bronzing” (the unpleasan...

The editors didn't like
The ink cartridges have very small capacities and cost $22 each. You can’t cheat with these inks
Once the ink level indicator orders a cartridge replacement it must be done. The penalty for squeezing an extra print from a depleted cartridge is band...

Excellent color photo printing; big enough for scrapbookers; roll feed capable; long-lived prints; CD- and DVD-label printing; many paper options; new ink set enhances skin tones.
Large footprint; no card reader.
Epsons Stylus Pro R1900 13-inch-wide photo printer is great for scrapbookers who want to print with pigment ink, or advanced photographers who want to print large, but cant justify the expense of a pro-level printer.
As with its more expensive sibling, the Stylus Photo R2880, plain paper print is a secondary function. Our five-page black text document took two minutes 28 seconds, a speed of 2.03ppm, and the five-page black text and colour graphics test took two minute...
Excellent photo print quality, build, design, and features
Slow set-up and installations, slow print speeds, head cleaning uses a lot of ink, print heads need frequent cleaning
Epson’s R1900 finally takes its Pocket-lint bow and what a printer it is. Impressive A3+ borderless printing meets superb quality output if, that is, you can keep the print heads clean...
Abstract: A3+ printers are probably overkill for most people, but theyre ideal if you need to print poster-sized photos or full-bleed A3 proofs. The downside is that most A3+ printers are both huge and hugely expensive. Even so, an A3+ printer can be a cost-...
You won’t be disappointed with the performance or results from the R1900. A pleasure to use and well deserving our five stars.SpecificationCartridges: 8 - Photo Black, Matte Black, Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, Red, Orange, Gloss OptimiserPrice per cartridge:...
Abstract: Epsons Stylus Photo R1900 uses seven pigment-based high gloss inks, along with a clear gloss optimiser cartridge. These extra inks add red, orange and matt black to the standard CMYK palette. Weve had difficulty with the default colour profiles o...

For the serious photographer, Epson is tossing around words such as "sellable" and "gallery-quality" when referring to the R1900 output, terms that have long been reserved for the companys Stylus Pro printers. While we might look a bit askance at tho...
Ink cartridge size, No straight paper path, Monochrome printing
Well I hope I havent been too negative about the R1900. Despite the small micro banding I have on this review unit the printer should still be one of the front runners if your thinking about a new printer. This banding was not present on a subsequent...
