Epson PictureMate Dash PM260 Compact Photo Inkjet Printer (C11C694201) Reviews
I bought a Dash and loved the quality of the pictures, HOWEVER, since I only use it once a month or so, the print heads dry up on a regular basis. I have to run 6-8 cleaning cycles every time to clean the machine and now, it will no longer work. I appealed to Epson for a replacement but because I didn't let them know within the context of my one year warranty. I'm out of luck and the $150 I paid for it. It's a shame Epson can't stand behind their product or find a way to make a product like this without the ink heads drying up continually. I have a large group of friends who also bought this machine and they all have the same problem, only mine is the only which will no longer work.
I went through numerous cartridges just for cleaning cycles. Wish I had all that $$$ back.
I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THE PICTURE MATE THAT I PURCHASED. IT IS VERY LIGHT AND TAKES UP LESS SPACE THAN THE ONE I HAD BEFORE.
THE PICTURE QUALITY IS EXCELLENT
My wife was constantly going to Walgreens to cut and crop pictures so I decided that since she told me she didn't need anything for Christmas I would purchase this one thing that obviously she did need. She is a photobug so why not. This little machine is big on quality of the prints and features. Very easy to set up and use. I had the first pictures in less then 10 minutes. She is not particularly tech savvy but has no problem getting it done with this printer. Only drawback I see is that the intial ink cartridge didn' last through the 25 picture papers that came with the unit. But the refill cartridge and paper for 150 pictures was less then $40. That's alot of pictures for the money if the ink holds out for 150 pictures!
I really love this printer. The variety of sizes that it lets you print are fantastic. I wish you could edit the photos on it, though. Maybe you can and I just haven't figured it out yet. But, overall, I love it. SUCH A GREAT BUY!!!
After ordering this photo printer and receiving an email that it was being shipped, I was notified that the vendor actually did not have it in stock so it was not being shipped. At least I wasn't charged!
(My ratings are based on another Epson PictureMate Dash PM260 Compact Photo Inkjet Printer that I purchased about a year ago. I liked the way the first one works, which is why I tried to order a second.)
