The Printer That Changed My Mind About Cheap Printers.

byJediKermit Jul 25, 2006

Pros Good software, ink cartridges included, easy installation, low price.
Cons Bad text and photo printing quality, horrible cartridge lifespan, even paper jams!
Recommended it? No

Sometimes I think we're cursed. In the six years we've been married, we've gone through many different printers, and after being disappointed by so many, we've learned not to really commit to an emotional bond with any of them. I'm glad we didn't, because this printer would have broken our hearts... Read full review »

This will not be an in-depth review of the c86 epson inkjet printer as others have an done an excellent job on reviewing so far...

Needless to say, i will talk about the epson c8x line, and then the c86.

I previously owned the c82 epson inkjet printer, which by all means, is... Read full review »

Fool Me Once...

Pros Tech support replaced printer when they couldn't fix it.
Cons Two identical printers have "died" after light use.
Recommended it? No

We purchased the c86 about 2-3 years ago when we were in the market for a capable printer that would also be able to print pictures. Epson came highly recommended by a few different individuals (who shall remain nameless) so we thought we'd try it. 2 printers and no printing capabilities later,... Read full review »

Epson Stylus C86: Good buy or waste of money?

12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 4 Comments
Pros Sleek and stylish, great price. Nice color and text prints.
Cons Not built to last a long time.
Recommended it? No

In December 2004 I realized I needed to buy a new inkjet
printer. I had a HP DeskJet 648C which served me faithfully
for 6 years. However it began going the way of the dinosaur. Therefore I decided to buy a new printer.


I was aware of Epinions so I wanted to check this... Read full review »

Discovered durability issue

Pros Epson color printing quality is still top dog.
Cons The build quality is poor, and it just doesn't last. Ink is still very expensive.
Recommended it? No

I am writing this review, before I sit down and write a review about the C88. I will be writing a review on the C88 because after about a year or so, my Epson Stylus C86 quit.

Installation: The C86 was a breeze to set up, and comes with inputs for Parallel port. or USB port. I installed... Read full review »

Pure Epson Junk! Buy HP!

bywrambler Nov 18, 2006
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros It was free and easy to install
Cons Clogged ink nozzles Won't run unless all ink cartridges show as having ink in them!
Recommended it? No

I've had two Epson printers now and both died from LACK OF USE.
It is impossible to clean the nozzles and get the Epsons working again if you don't use them constantly.
I will never buy another Epson product, I must admit this one was a freebie with a Camera, but what good is free... Read full review »

Pros Good quality color prints
Cons They stop working after 12-18 months.
Recommended it? No

If you had asked me 2 months ago I would have given you rave reviews on the Epson C86. I had purchased one for myself and one for my parents. I figured it would make trouble shooting easier. I bought both printers in December of 2004. The print quality was good, both on color and text. Speed was... Read full review »

Pros Sleek and stylish, beautiful prints, convenient warranty service
Cons Print heads clog, other durability issues
Recommended it? No

I purchased this printer over a year ago, used it for many months without problems. Due to the cost of ink I was purchasing cheaper replacements from eBay. The print quality lasted for about 6 months or more and began to diminish slightly. Before it could become terrible my printer ended up having... Read full review »

Pros Cheap!
Cons Doesn't work, low quality pos.
Recommended it? No

Worked for about a week, then stopped printing black (not even the slightest bit). Cartridge obviously had ink left because I could hear it sloshing around and the meter on the computer still said 3/4 full. Epson service was 0 help...it was printing color just fine so it was not printer... Read full review »

Excellent... for the price.

Pros Excellent hardware. More than acceptable output for the average user.
Cons Non-Epson brand ink produces comparable results at a savings of 60% or more.
Recommended it? Yes

I have used my C84 for a year, and my C86 for 4 months. (Epson tells me the only difference MAY be in the firmware and drivers, but the two printers are virtually identical otherwise.)

I fully agree with other reviewer's opinions. Very good text, acceptable photos. Quiet operation. And... Read full review »
