Epson All- in-One Printer Scanner —
Epson Stylus CX 7400
note: The CX 7400 supports Windows 2000, XP, XP Professional x64 Edition, Vista,and Mac OS X 10.2.8, 10.3.9 and above. It does not have a parallel port, USB cable not included.
Like all Epson printers setup of the CX 7400 was simple. The instructions were well written and easy to understand, the ink slots are color coded so there is no guess work what goes where. My only problem was the USB port is recessed and I needed a flashlight, so be sure and have a flashlight or a well-lit room.You'll want to get the serial number from the back before you began as you will need it during the registration process. Follow the instructions for connecting the printer, insert the CD when instructed and follow the prompts. Even registration is made as painless as possible. After filling in the form (easy) you are given the option of registering online, by mail or by fax. The directions for printing, copying and scanning could be understood by a two year old (maybe not quite that young but you get the idea) much less a computer illiterate. The test copy the printer prompted me to make as well as the printouts I made came out beautifully. The printer is somewhat noisy when it starts but I didn't find it any louder than my old printer. It also includes a link to Epson Creative. Not being creative myself I can't speak from experience but this appears to be something that woul be useful in scrapbooking, invitations, etc.
When you need to replace the ink Epson has included a handy utility to make the task easier, something I appreciate. Cartridges are available at the Epson store but you can buy them for less (both Epson and generics) at sites such as www.123inkjets.com and www.4inkjets.com.
