Unwrapped, made room, situated, super. When you stand the printer on the floor you'd think it was a tub, so enormous it is. No, joking aside, but you should consider the extent. He is definitely not comparable to 0815 printers, and certainly not in terms of the weight ~ 15kg. The establishment and preparation, such as the insertion of the ink cartridges worked great at first, a brief description was also in it. When I read reviews here of what that even do not get that, I can only shake his head. To open even an egg packaging from the supermarket, requires more work than the printer to get "ready". All very easy to slide off, insert, press, done. So let's tell you otherwise by incompetent users, even a monkey would make this printer set up ...
It continued with the installation, which worked ebenfgalls properly. Thanks Wizard worked well this properly and without problems. I have of course the printer connected directly via WLAN in the home network in order to later be accessed from other devices reference. Drivers and software were installed, complete the first PC with it. It continued with the Macbook, which also worked flawlessly. Smartphones and Tabletes also, all devices were connected to the printer within minutes.
Note here: Please keep in mind, in case you want to access from multiple wireless devices to the printer via Wi-Fi to think necessarily it to allow in euerem Rounter (eg Fritz box) in the settings that the wireless devices communicate with each other allowed! When ye do this - and this option is disabled by default - your printer is not found. I notice this here because I have already noticed many cases where people are despaired.
After everything was set up for me, it should directly go. A test print. Quickly adjust the print heads and the first test print came in top quality from the printer - I was thrilled. Shots of my Canon 5D Mark III (RAW) from Lightroom sent directly to the printer, the result was amazing! I was immediately impressed. Colors, and contrast Schräfe just look Brilliant. Best printing result, which I produced so far at home. TOP! Solely to B / W print me the pressure goes too far in the colors. Now Therefore, I'm going to, of course, a printer profile of "Photo Design Winkler" order to calibrate the printer. Who does not know, should definitely do at times clever. I therefore can profile all my previous printer to really getting the maximum quality out. This I can only recommend to anyone as a color profile is really useful! It is therefore always better and not cost the earth. Once I have my profile, I will share the results with it here ...
Overall, I am now convinced already by the quality and look forward to more pictures print (especially in A4, A3, A3 + format). My little Canon Selphy CP 910 prints up only a maximum of 148x100mm, therefore this is a whole new world for me. At the very least, what the "development" of photos As at home.
Otherwise, everything else in brief:
(+ = Positive, +/- = neutral, - = negative)
+ Price / Performance
+ Quality (colors, sharpness, contrast, vibrancy of photos)
+ Volume is satisfactory (I know printer because sound Föne however, as falling asleep ...)
+ Extensively of possible formats, with templates for CD / DVD printing, etc.
+/- No manual again only PDF or Online Manual
- New set of cartridges costs sometimes just a mere 100 euros, so quite expensive (Original Epson)
- Order the USB cable No here, so if necessary necessarily.
(Due to the size best long USB cable (3-5 meters) order)
I will certainly deal with the day even more with the printer. Once my ICC profile is there and I can put a comparison, I will complete my review of course immediately. Until then, I can only say great! Really, how so often achieved in Test's truly one of the photo printer for home. Strong buy recommendation! :-)
