My last Epson I put my fist through. Seriously.
For years I had Epson printers and for years nothing would piss me off more than for someone in my family to want
anything at all printed off, because I knew it was going to result in an hour or two of unrestrained rage and frustration trying to get the s.o.b. to do anything at all, nevermind do anything at all
right.
A year ago I needed to print some stuff, spent the standard hour or two cussing the Epson, put my fist through it, and then together with my son headed off to the electronics store to get a new printer. "What are you going to get?" he asked. "Anything but an Epson."
I bought a Canon MP600 combination scanner/copier/printer and from the very first it has been bliss. You have no idea what tranquility it has brought me by way of comparison. I can actually hit "PRINT" and know the damned thing is actually going to
print, do it right, and not be all damned day about it. And the huge leap in ease of use, reliability, and print quality compared to the piece of crap that came before it led me to seek out a quality digital camera to make the most of it. That's where the Pentax K100D came in and I got the opportunity to meet all you nice folks.
I'm sure Epson must make some wonderful products. I have just never had the good fortune to own one of them.
