EPSON CX6400

Looks like a great deal on a nice multifunction printer.

I've had 3 epsons die on me, the latest one being an mfd whereas an HP bought around the time of the first epson is still going strong. It's almost always print heads that can't be unclogged even using the cleaning command. Repair costs are so close to buying new that repair usually isn't worth it.

Anyway, all I'm saying is if you buy epson just expect it to clog eventually. ^^ I still have my clogged mfd sitting around since I use it for scanning and copying (through software since it can't print on it's own anymore). Should have just bought seperate or an mfd from a decent company.

lol...clicking on "Next: Epson Stylus CX6400 Service and support" in their review led to "You have landed on a 404 error page --...". They seem like the perfect site to recommend an Epson. ^^

AFAICT no where do they mention reliability or even cost per page, so the review is rather worthless for what I was talking about anyway. Anyhow, if anyone reading has the bad luck to get sadled with an Epson I highly recommend this utility http://www.ssclg.com/epsone.shtml to help deal with the super expensive ink and jamming heads.
