Epson C11CD31201 Expression Premium XP-610 Wireless Color Photo Printer with Scanner and Copier


You have to temper your amazement over all the features in a reasonably priced printer with the fact that the printer manufacturers continue to operate on the razor/razor blade premise of sales.   Give away the razor, soak them on the blades or in this case, price the printer (for it's features) reasonably and soak them for the supposedly less expensive ink cartridges. 

The printer set up easily with the pictograph easy start guide.  Wireless connection worked well.   Setting up scan and remote print was less stellar.  I got the Windows 8 message of "Program Compatibility Assistant"  popping up a couple of times so I am not sure that it all installed ok.  The email/remote print tested out ok.  

The instructions are rudimentary at best.  The QR code for Epson Connect worked on my smart phone but not on my tablet.   I was able to print from my tablet using email print.  I got the printer to print a good quality photo and to do duplexing. (two sided printing)  The photo was not the best photo quality that I have seen in inkjets.  It is good but not superior than other printers I have. 

The paper cassettes are flimsy and easily push too far into the printer.  It seems like the printer has a lot of features but it remains to be seen if it will hold up.   Price:$99.99

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
