Rating :  - Printer Hard drive failure after only 6 months!
I have owned the Epson Artisan 50 for about 6 months and have had problems with the CD/DVD label making tray not feeding into the printer properly. It is very touchy and requires playing around with it in order for it to work properly. Today I got an error message stating the tray was not in the correct position but I knew IT WAS! I tried the trouble shooting guide and was prompted to contact Epson Support. I could not email them on the site I was directed to because an error message kept coming up about the model information not being properly supplied, but there was no box to supply that information to begin with. I called customer support and was directed to try several steps and still no luck at getting the CD label to print. The tech concluded that the printer hard drive had failed after only 6 months! The unit was still under warranty and the tech said another (refurbished model) would be shipped to me and I could just throw out the bad unit. I no longer have much faith in Epson printers. The Epson R380 I owned before the Artisan lasted barely over a year and that printer hard drive failed as well. It seems as though a printer should be built to last longer than 6 months to a year. When the unit was working properly it did turn out some nice quality prints, however, the ink is costly and this model guzzles a large quantity of ink! When the refurbished model they are sending me dies, I am done investing in Epson.
