Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)

I rarely give 5-stars to a printer because there are usually aspects within its usage that are done only satisfactory--trying to functionally get by. The Epson Artisan 1430 is an HD photo printer and it should be reviewed under only that guise.

---Summarical Thought---

This printer gives extremely high quality print-outs on photo paper when using high resolution images. The print time is somewhat lengthy though the outcome is worth the effort. There is a minimalist approach to unboxing and use, for there are very few steps to get the Epson working. It is fairly quick to set-up wirelessly through the included software. There are no negatives that stick out, except maybe subjectively, to claim there are lacking points or better options. If what you want is a way to print high-quality photos the Epson Artisan 1430 is nothing but this.

---Printing Quality---

I used fairly inexpensive Semi-Gloss photo paper that was not a 'premium' grade nor an Epson brand.

Photo Quality on Photo Paper: 9/10

Settings used: Quality Option: 'Best Photo' Print Options: All Boxes Unchecked *Under Advanced Tab*: All Boxes Unchecked under Print Options

When printing photos out, I looked for resolutions at least 1 megapixel or more--at least 1024x786--and blew the pictures up to make a 4*8.5x11 poster. The latter was done using Picasa by Google and something I strongly suggest doing if you get this printer. That is one of the fun things that you can do with a printer that accurately replicates photos/pictures/paintings on paper--you can do a lot of interesting decorations/projects. My idea was to find some of my favorite paintings online and print them out to use around the house--which this printer did exceptionally well at. It is for this fact that I can really give you a good idea on the print quality of this printer. The lower the resolution of course the less clear and precise the photos/pictures were when enlarged.

Comparing to the original picture on my laptop screen, the pictures printed out where actually better quality with better contrast and colors. I do know my LED screen is not too good, but the pictures were extremely vibrant and saturated correctly. Printing paintings from Monet to Van Gogh as well actual pictures, the accuracy was outstanding.

Printing black and white text on plain paper, the Artisan did not have the sharp angles and abyss black that a laser printer would have though the text was fairly decent with a slightly washed out black and compact angles around the letters.

B/W Quality: 7/10

---Ink...& Usage---

**Important**
The Epson Artisan 1430 takes Epson cartridge 79 which is high-capacity. After going to the store and seeing Epson 78 next to the 79 with the label: 'Standard Capacity' and 30% less in the cost, I thought that this would be an option for someone wanting to print just a few more photos. Even the employee thought the 78 would fit in the Artisan. This is not the case. The cartridges look identical except for 1 strip of plastic that blocks the ability to slide it in the cartridge holder all the way. Well, I decided to 'snip' the extra plastic boundary and it proceeded to fit perfectly. When going to prime the ink, however, I found that the printer would not recognize the ink. Not sure why Epson did not want the 78 to be used in the printer, but it will not in anyway take anything other than Epson 79.

The cartridges are around 22$ a piece and the Epson needs 6: Black, Yellow, Light Magenta, Light Cyan, Dark Magenta, and Dark Cyan. When printing many colored photos the most used where the Light Magenta and Light Cyan. I printed around 40 or so 'highest' quality full size (8.5x11) print-outs before the L. Magenta and L. Cyan ran out. Yellow was on its way. If you plan to use this for many photos, go ahead and buy some replacement L.Magenta and L.Cyan cartridges. If you are planning on printing 5"x7" or smaller photos, this ink will last a very very long time. If I had to guess at the latter I would say you would at least get 120 printouts before running empty.

---Print Time---

The print time was fairly slow and this is due to me selecting the highest possible quality and deselecting the 'fast print' option (don't know if that helps quality or not). It took about 7-8 minutes to finish printing a full size photo.

---Operation---

Very simple to use. The wireless setup is the most complicated but this is lessened due to the software included with the Artisan. You have the choice of using the included CD to install software on your computer--and setup the wireless connection--or you can download it from Epson's website. Some printers have you follow a manual to setup the wireless connection, but the Epson, through the software, is automated. You have the option to connect via an AccessPoint (which is sometimes difficult to find), or you can input a wireless key. I did find it difficult to setup multiple connections because after you first connect to your router, I could not find how to add another connection without installing and re-installing the software.

The printer is very very quiet, equal to a loud whisper and is stable when on a table. It is wide, somewhat heavy (25 lbs or 11kg), and takes up a lot of space (25" or 63cm wide).

This printer will not be just something in your house that prints things but can really encourage a hobby in creating posters, decorating the house, and forming photo albums/collages. Be warned that with the high quality photos might also come an addiction to inundate your place of living with many pictures. The reasonable price makes this a very good value.
