PCWorld: Review – Epson B-510DN Inkjet Printer
According to this review, the B-510DN, reviewed working with a Mac, delivers high speed and uses cheap ink.
“Epson’s B-510DN color inkjet printer could be the first crossover success, besting its own cohort (as well as many lower-end color lasers) in speed and cost per page. All this talent comes at a high initial price, but if you need speed, volume, and economy, plus good photo printing, this printer is well worth considering.
The B-510DN’s design is efficient rather than aesthetic. The front ink-cartridge bay makes replacing consumables a snap, but it protrudes awkwardly from the unit’s face. The control panel is simple, with a two-line monochrome LCD and a few buttons whose purposes are clear even without word labels. The front input tray holds 500 letter/legal sheets and has a 170-sheet output tray on top. A rear input takes envelopes and the like (or another 150 sheets of paper). The B-510DN can connect via USB or ethernet. Automatic duplexing is standard. On the Mac platform, driver glitch means that Mac OS X 10.6 users must select the paper size and type manually in their application–just for the first time duplexing is used. Epson says a fix is due by September.”
