Selling due to moving abroad - this is a very high quality image printer made specifically for photographs etc (though does also handle "everyday printing") - Can even be fully used without a computer by connecting directly to a camera / usb (flash) drive / memory card and can be fully controlled via the LCD screen. Can be seen working.

Comes with original instructions / cleaning sheet / leads also being sold complete with a FULL set of replacement inks (at a value of £50/£60 - these have 6 inks, not four for better colour control), PLUS approx. 500 sheets of 6x2 glossy photo paper, PLUS approx. 130 sheets A4 glossy photo paper - In all, roughly £80 worth of accessories!

The Stylus Photo R300 sits near the top of a new range of machines designed with photography enthusiasts in mind. It’s a full six-colour printer, with light cyan and light magenta inks supplementing the core cyan, magenta, yellow and black. The aim is to improve rendition of light tones in areas like skies and skin.

This is a big printer, almost up to all-in-one dimensions, with a conventional paper path flowing from a 120 sheet, near-vertical tray at the rear, through to a telescopic output tray, which folds down from the front of the machine. At bottom right behind a hinged and sprung acrylic door is a set of memory card slots and a USB port, for connecting either a digital camera supporting PictBridge or an external Zip or CD drive.

This second use of a USB port is unusual and gives you the option to download pictures from a camera or its memory card, directly to more permanent media, without the intervention of a PC. A similar USB socket at the back of the printer, this time to the USB 2.0 standard, connects the printer to a PC so you can use the R300 for conventional hardcopy duties.

A second design feature which distinguishes this printer from the majority of its competitors is its LCD screen. It's mono and it can't show thumbnails of the pictures you're intending to print. Epson has gone for an alternative scheme, where the mono LCD is just used for control menus, error messages and a status.
