The inclusion of some photo paper and the CD-R is nice – this way, I can at least try printing some photos before heading out to buy more paper. This is unfortunate – I’d be far more apt to buy expensive Epson paper for my new Epson printer if I could use all the coupons, rather than being forced to choose one. Submitting a coupon requires the original box UPC, a copy of the purchase receipt, and the coupon form. Reading the fine print, however, reveals that the user is entitled to use one coupon. This seems great at first – lots of $4.00 rebates on Epson photo paper, document paper, and printable CD-Rs and DVD-Rs. I also mentioned that this printer comes with some coupons. Would it have killed Epson to include a USB cable in the box? Not only that, but USB cables at retail stores are unbelievably expensive – a coworker was lamenting to me the other day about discovering that Circuit City’s USB cables started at thirty dollars for a 3′ cable. Why in the world has it become the de facto standard to not include basic connectivity in the box? I mean, at least a DVD player comes with cheap a cheap composite A/V cable.
It costs pennies to manufacture a standard A-B USB cable. This printer, like every other printer on the market today, does not include a USB cable. It’s nice to be immediately ready to go, right out of the box, with no Internet connection necessary.
First off, Epson actually included a drivers CD! This is rare these days – peripheral manufacturers tend to just require users to download updated drivers off the Internet. There are a few things worth noting here about the box contents.
