Epson Expression Home XP-245

Wireless doesn't work after spending half an hour trying everything. If you need wireless, don't get this printer. Also, you need to but the USB connection separately as it doesn't come with this printer.

Printer is crap, wast of plastic!! I don't know how Epson can deliver such a printer and get away with it bloody daylight robbery with out the violance. Nothing good about it stay away from the heap of crap!!!!!

The wireless connectivity is okay. But the print heads are constantly clogged, it goes through ink very quickly, changing the cartridge is tricky and counterintuitive. The scanning software is clunky and tedious.

Terrible printer. Barely ever responds, been tempted to through it off my balcony many times. OSX user with updated drivers and still doesn't work. Always hit and miss whether the printer will be found and if it will start at all. Sometimes it even stops printing half way.

This printer will ask you to change ink before the cartridges even run out of ink. This is another scam by EPSON, selling the printers at a loss and making billions on cartridges. This is not sustainable at all to the "environment"!
The printer gets updates regularly and every update isn't to help the consumer but to gather data and increase Epson's SALES! Updates will also learn third party cartridges and prevent you from using them! Latest updates doesn't allow refill or manual resetting or even third party cartridges. Overall this printer is rubbish scanning is very SLOW and printing quality is very BAD.

Slow to connect. Its connection keeps dropping! (Not my home wifi problem!) Took me to restart 5 to 8 times then only works normal. When i changed the ink for the first time, took me an hour to turn on off again and again to get ink and printer "connected". When both connected the wifi signal drops! you can imagine how frust i was about to chuck the whole thing into the bin!. Never buy this printer please. Now i dont even bother to use it anymore.

I was only able to print about a dozen jobs before its completely stopped printing. The few i did print took 10-15 minutes of restarting the jobs to get them to connect. Stay clear from epson. I thought the issues was with the ink so i purchased an additional 'value set' costing more than the printer. The issue was not with the ink however, it was not possible form me to tell as there are no details with error messages, it simply says there is an error.

This is cheap tinny junk. Runs out of ink rapidly & cartridges cost more than the unit. Scanning stopped after a while.
Steer clear!!! I would recommend waiting & saving for something decent or looking in gumtree for a bargin would never reccomend this product most disappointed threw it in bin.

I have been selling printer cartridges online for the last 12 years and Epson are by far the worst printers on the market. They have a major issue with the firmware they use. Epson were voted worst printer on our poll that we conducted. I wrote this review after working on a XP-245 today and giving up in anger. They are cheap, low grade rubbish. DO NOT buy any Epson printer, be warned.

Doesn't do anything but the lights do light up. Absolute piece of useless back plastic. Been trying to connect to devices but won't connect to any. Pretty sure I would ever purchase another Epson product again. And continuously get bombarded with emails on a daily basis about other products that probably don't work either.

Never could get the wifi connected however works fine with a usb cord which I had to buy separate. The printing is fine however if you are going to do scanning I would highly recommend you look for another brand, it is painfully slow and cumbersome to scan with. I am writing this extra few words as product review requires fifty words, which also annoys me and the reason I will now stop writing reviews for them.

I purchased this inexpensive printer. Big mistake as it has been sitting next to my desktop because I have been unable to get it to setup with my Wi Fi. The printer is poor quality and and it rattles along endlessly the times that I have tried to use it. To add insult to injury in desperation I got hold of Epson through a chat line that Epson has. Here I was put through to a technician who required a $44.00 fee to fix the problem. Probably close to what I paid for the printer. My trusty old Brother ran out of steam after seven years of good service. Back to Brother for me. AVOID this printer.

It jams. Worse than the jams are the mystery errors for no reason. It also runs out of ink very rapidly. The refills are cheaper than other cartridges, but they're still presumably filled with unicorn tears at that price.

When it does work, it takes ages to figure out what it's doing, which is frustrating given that it only had one job.

I truly despise this machine.

This printer has rarely worked properly since we bought it. The print quality is abysmal - either very faint or with parts missing - and it frequently jams. It is noisy, and the control panel is poorly designed. On top of this, the ink cartridges are eye-wateringly expensive, and it gets through them at an astonishing rate. To think that our old Lexmark printer gave us 11 years of excellent service, and on cheap recycled cartridges too.
AVOID!

I have owned a number of printers over the years, and the 'Epson XP245' would be the poorest quality printer I have had the misfortune of owning. It never connects to the wi-fi, print 5 pages, then there is always an issue with the ink. And let's NOT talk about the scanner.

Really good budget printer, very light and portable print from app. Easy to use and set up, the print quality is very good and it's quite fast to print. For the price you can't go wrong. I recommend this printer to the budget buyer. So fast and easy to print straight from from your phone.
