Epson Stylus Photo R320 Review
|
Review Summary
Reader Score: 6.50 (out of 10)
With the massive popularity of digital cameras, printing your digital images often involved downloading the images to a computer, opening the images up with the software that came with the digital camera , editing them, and then printing them out, hoping that they would print straight and even on the print paper that you chose. In the last year, inkjet printer manufacturers have become attuned to customer requests for printers that are capable of printing images without the use of a computer. Several models were released. Several have since been updated. Epson was one of the first printer manufacturers to include memory card support built onto the printer, obviating the need for a host PC. The company's latest offering, the Epson Stylus Photo R320 is one such printer that Epson has outfitted for those who wish to bypass the computer. The Stylus Photo R320, at $199 has all the features one would expect from a printer that does not need a computer to print images.

| The Epson Stylus Photo R320 ($200 street) fills a gap in the Epson line between the R200 and the R800. Like both of those models, the R320 is a photo printer that can print on printable CDs and DVDs. Its performance is on a par with the R200's for both business applications and photos, but on output quality it comes close to matching the R800, even beating it for text quality. |

| The Stylus Photo R320, at $199 has all the features one would expect from a printer that does not need a computer to print images. But it includes a few other features that would benefit from being attached to a computer. The printer is both Macintosh and Windows compatible and offer USB 2.0 Hi-Speed connectivity when using a computer with the printer and a separate USB 1.1 host connection for use with CD-R drives, Zip drives and PictBridge-enabled digital cameras . I've had an R320 in for review for the last few weeks, and have been vigorously printing all manner of images and documents with it. In the scope of this review, let's take a look at some of the core features to this printer, and how well it outputs images.

| Great photo output (including borderless printing) combined with a nice range of features including stand alone and CD/DVD printing and at a great price, which all makes the Epson Stylus Photo R320 a printer that must be on your 'to buy' list if you're in the game for new inkjet photo printer.
