#Epson stylus photo rx595 software

I don’t really pay attention to anything that involves interpolation with images – this means that the hardware or software tries to intelligently upscale an image, and it never looks as good as the original. The scanner is pretty standard – it’s capable of up to 1200dpi native, and 9600dpi interpolated. I’ve already found generic cartridges online for a fraction of this price, which is good news for those of you who print photos frequently. A pack of standard-capacity cartridges will set you back $65, while a pack of the high-capacity cartridges brings that price up to $90. It does, however, mean that ink is expensive. I don’t know enough about printing and imaging to know why exactly this is so great, so I’ll just have to take Epson’s word for it. Rather than stop with your typical black, cyan, magenta, and yellow inks, the RX595 adds light magenta and light cyan into the mix. It uses a “high-definition” ink cartridge system with six cartridges. The printer feature itself is quite high-tech. She’s now claimed the RX595 as her resting place while watching me work on my home computer.

I’ve already found a few hairline scratches on the lid of the scanner bed, and now keep a dish towel over the thing when I’m not using it. The bookshelf on which the RX595 now resides is directly beneath a window in my apartment, so my cat uses the printer as a launchpad to get up into that window. While this looks nice and all, it’s a magnet for three things – fingerprints, dust, and scratches. The scanner lid is highly-polished piano black. Everything closes up nice and tidy when the printer isn’t in use – the paper entry point has a lid that flips shut, and the space under the scanner bed where your photos and documents appear closes up as well.

The buttons are well laid out and require no manual to get the gist of the interface. It’s definitely bigger than your run-of-the-mill inkjet printer,īut it’s not overbearing in its size. The physical printer isn’t as big as I expected it to be. It’s an all-in-one inkjet system, which means that on top of printing photos, it can also scan and copy documents, as well as print and copy photos directly from memory cards (with MMC/SD, MemoryStick, xD, and CompactFlash support) and PictBridge-compatible digital cameras. Without even opening the box, the specs show that this thing really packs a punch. The inclusion of some photo paper and the CD-R is nice – this way, I can at least try printing some photos before heading out to buy more paper. This is unfortunate – I’d be far more apt to buy expensive Epson paper for my new Epson printer if I could use all the coupons, rather than being forced to choose one. Submitting a coupon requires the original box UPC, a copy of the purchase receipt, and the coupon form. Reading the fine print, however, reveals that the user is entitled to use one coupon. This seems great at first – lots of $4.00 rebates on Epson photo paper, document paper, and printable CD-Rs and DVD-Rs. I also mentioned that this printer comes with some coupons.

Would it have killed Epson to include a USB cable in the box? Not only that, but USB cables at retail stores are unbelievably expensive – a coworker was lamenting to me the other day about discovering that Circuit City’s USB cables started at thirty dollars for a 3′ cable. Why in the world has it become the de facto standard to not include basic connectivity in the box? I mean, at least a DVD player comes with cheap a cheap composite A/V cable. It costs pennies to manufacture a standard A-B USB cable. This printer, like every other printer on the market today, does not include a USB cable. It’s nice to be immediately ready to go, right out of the box, with no Internet connection necessary.

First off, Epson actually included a drivers CD! This is rare these days – peripheral manufacturers tend to just require users to download updated drivers off the Internet. There are a few things worth noting here about the box contents.

One of the coolest things about this printer is its ability to print directly on compatible CDs and DVDs. Epson sent us a retail box containing the RX595 and all its accoutrements, as well as an extra set of high-capacity ink cartridges (a whopping $90 value) and some various Epson-branded photo and document paper types for sampling.
