If you need an all-in-one printer, but have a limited budget, there’s still quite a wide choice of machines at the entry-level. When you consider that the Epson SX200 can be bought for as little as £50, its amazing that it has such as long list of features. As well as offering printing, scanning and photo copying the SX200 also has a built-in memory card reader and PictBridge slot for printing photos directly from memory card or digital camera. Another surprise is its built quality, the unit is compact and lightweight in construction, but the plastics are of a high quality and fell solid so it should stand up to some punishment. Mechanically, the SX200 is a touch unrefined and it operation noise is a little higher than some of it competitors. Epson SX200 ink cartridges consist of four individual DURABrite printer cartridges which helps protect prints from damage and they cost around £30 a set. There are compatible Epson ink cartridges available for the SX200 and they represent amazing value for money because they cost half the price of the originals and yield the same number of pages. In performance terms the SX200 only has one fault and that’s it slow printing speed, it not that bad but it made worst because had the bare faced cheek to say it capable of printing 34ppm (pages per minute) when at very best it only capable of 13ppm. Everything else about the SX200 can’t really be faulted the copier works well, as does the scanner and the print quality is one of the best of any budget inkjet printer on the market.
