Epson Expression Home XP-3200 3-in-1 Ink Multifunction Printer, Scanner, Copier, WiFi, 1440dpi, Duplex, 1.45 Inch Display, DIN A4, incl. 3 Months Readyprint Flex Trial

I am not a computer whiz Kid, and I am not knowledgable on Apps etc, just wanted a basic printer/scanner to run off my computer after my very old printer gave in. I took a chance on this printer concerned that most reviews were about linking to mobiles etc. In fact I just plugged the mains lead in and connected the printer to a USB port on my computer, turned on and the printer did the rest. It installed without any reference to downloading off the net etc and even the small screen for 5 minutes showed what was happening, then it just atomatically ran, the only thing I had to do was put the 4 inks (supplied in the package) into the machine, but even the small screen covered this. I have only had it 3 days, prints are excellent and are produced reasonable quickly, scanner works perfectly. Not tried double sided print outs yet nor connected to apps on phones (don't want to). I will keep count of copies to comment at a later date on the life of the ink cartridges supplied. If you want a reasonably priced printe/scanner, very very easy to set up, looks strong and not plasticky then I can recommend the xp3200. Lastly pleased I went for this with the small screen for just £15 more, well worth being able to see what is happening and receiving instructions, there is no manuel but one is not needed. (I suppose I could download one, but no need) .

Since my trusty XP322 decided to cease to work I needed a similar replacement and having always used Epson printers decided on the XP3200 as a close match. The printer has virtually the same capabilities as my old XP322 but annoyingly they don't seem to come with full ink cartridges these days. The supplied cartridges are just for Setup and Configuration as shown on the cartridge. I managed to get a few pages of print out of them. After that I used some third party inks which work just as well. Installation wasn't too hard. Since this has Wifi and can work with a smartphone and can also take part in Epson's Readyprint ink subscription service, it initially wants to connect to the your network and internet. Since I didn't want this I ignored that option and just continued to set it up using a USB cable. Windows 10 immediately found the printer and installed a defaut print driver but this has limited capability so its better to download the setup utility fron Epson's web site - once again I declined any attempt to connect to the internet and also disabled automatic updates. The printer itself feels a little more plasticy than my old one and the paper movement mechanism is a lot noisier. One feature the SP3200 has that my old XP322 didn't have is automatic double sided printing. To be honest it might seem like a nice convenient feature but its a lot slower than turning over the paper manually. It prints, scans and copies just like my old printer and the driver options look just the same, so it was an easy switch over. Good quality print and scan but genuine inks are expensive and you'll need something to get going as those supplied are only for setup.

After reading mixed reviews, I was a little hesitant to purchase this printer. However, it does the job! It’s not too noisy, easy to set up to my laptop, wireless connectivity is seamless! The quality is lovely, very compact, you can open it up when in use and also fold down the screen and paper trays for when it’s out of use. Can’t comment on how long the inks last as yet as I haven’t used it enough. I think this is a really good budget printer!

A quality printer with prestige colour quality, with plenty information on its lcd display. Almost a quiet printer with an average speed which is useful for home users. Not sure yet how long ink cartridges last long, but it does print a photo, brilliantly.

Excellent printer, very easy to set up and great value. Happy customer

I've owned this printer for a year now and I'm finally giving up with it. Every time I come to use it, the print quality is poor with horizontal lines running through. So of course I go through the process of cleaning the print heads and realignment, which seems to use almost all the ink, because then I get warnings that ink is low. So I replace the cartridges, get the pages printed at print quality I could only describe as average. Then a week or so later, next time I want to print, the quality is again dreadful with lines running through it, and the whole cycle repeats. I honestly think I must have printed less than 150 colour pages in a year, but I've replaced the cartridges 4 times (at nearly £40 a set) so this printer is too expensive to run, costing me literally more than £1 per page. In summary: Colour quality, very poor. Print quality very poor overall. Time to print first page is really slow. Expensive to run. Uses a LOT of ink. See photo to see just how dreadful the print quality is. On the plus side (ha ha) it was easy to set up and it supports Apple Airprint. Good scanner.

I like the Epson brand and have used them for years - you seem to use a printer far less these days so just wanted a low cost one for when required - just as well we got it as a relative wanted photos printing - now that’s it’s down side - we printed eight 5x7 colour for them and the it soon ran out of magenta firstly then cyan then yellow so think on if you need to use it for this - otherwise it prints to A4 efficiently - Scans well and works well using your phone via its Epson print app to do different types of printing such as pdf,s etc - reasonably happy with it - already had to buy inks - didn’t buy Epson due to the price but it takes others - it grumbles about using them but just say your ok with it.

As above!

Nice little unit, copies and prints very good

Eventually worked out how to install . Not very tech savy

The smartphone app was very helpful for the installation. What surprised & disappointed me was the printer has no hidden paper tray.

Grand for black and white prints. It's busting my chops trying to get head aligned. Nearly out of ink before I've started. Hopefully because it's new it might print itself out of this
