I have purchased many of these printers over the years and my current C88+ is getting to it's end.

I was happy to discover that the Epson C88 printer was still being made. It doesn't take up a lot of space and performs well. It replaces a previous C88 that I had had for several years. My Mac "guru" was pleased to learn that it was still available, as he has a number of clients to whom he will recommend this printer.

The instructions are inadequate--after tech support, the Epson printer worked well so far--- time, is the great tell all

I had this same model for 11 years before it finally gave up the ghost. Since all I need is a basic printer, I decided to replace it with the same model that had served me so well

I've had this printer for many years. It is one of the best I have ever owned. Because the paper. feeds from the rear there are no paper jams. It is especially good for envelopes.

We have used this printer for years. Due to our large volume of prints, it lasts us one year and then we buy a new one

In 2006 I bought a C88 that lasted until one month ago. Contacting Epson, I was able to get the next model up with a 15% discount that uses the same cartridges. I plugged it in and PERFECTION!

I ended up returning this printer because the colors were not good. Very dull and didn’t print the colors correctly. I tried making all kinds of adjustments to the printer preferences but nothing worked.

Only had this for 2 weeks. Easy to set up, had no problems yet. It does print VERY SLOWLY.

I can't even remember when I bought my first Epson C88+ but can it be eight years ago? All I know is I used it weekly for my home business, sometimes printing several dozen pages in a day, and it NEVER let me down. Then it finally died . . . but I found out I could order another one! Great! If this C88+ is anything like it's older brother, we're going to have a long and happy relationship.

The C88 is quiet and prints everything with crisp detail. Unlike my previous Epson Work Force 30, the C88 handles photo paper with ease. It is very good for making smaller preview color prints so I know what to expect on my larger R3000 printer. Adorama's C88 printers come with the Epson cartridges and the shipping is free. Many Epson sellers do not include the cartridges and charge for shipping.

I make greeting cards and needed a printer that would print true to colors and graphics in them. This printer does all that and more. It is also easy on the ink with the new technology for printing. I love this printer and recommend it for anyone needing photos and graphics that stand up on the page in bright clear true colors.

Amazingly quiet but still fast. The sharpness of the letters and numbers is the best I have ever seen. I am used to viewing the printed pages from my Epson Workforce 30 and sometimes my Epson R3000. This C88+ beats them both in crispness.

I owned an Epson C88 printer for about 10 + years. It finally went to the happy hunting grounds. I replaced the printer with a C88+ so far it is a very good investment. I have had this printer for about 2Mo; a very good investment. Ellis

I have used this printer for my small hand made card business for a few years now. I order a new one as soon as the previous one wears out due to the heavy usage I put them through. It is a tough little printer! I love the durabrite inks and the quality of printing is superb. This model interfaces with my older Mac operating system. I would be lost without this amazing printer!

I've purchased this very same printer for many years. We really put them through their paces. Being a sign company, you need to do a lot of drawings and a lot of times it requires professional gloss printouts. The level of the 1440 dpi printing is of beautiful photographic images you just can't believe. DON'T EVER STOP MAKING THESE!!!!!!!!

After printing photos for many years on an HP 7300, I switched to one of the Epsons you offer, a stylus C88+. The prints have come out great so far. It seems to be a lot simpler than the old HP and the ink is definitely less expensive per cartridge. I have printed several 8 x 10's and love the colors. The quality is just as good as the HP and if it lasts as long, I will be more than happy. I'm glad I bought it and glad you had one in stock. Good machine and simple to operate. The only thing I miss is being able to slip in my CF card but the iogear card reader you sold me took care of that problem. Thanks Adorama. p.s. love your tutorials.

This is the second C88+ I have purched and is a very good alround printer. Have to replace the old printer as colors not correct even after going though ink jet tests ect. Even new ink cartridges from Epson direct. New printer is 100%

This is my second C88+. The first one just wore out; I had it for about eight years. I use it mainly for black and white printing and I picked it over all other printers. It's a great little printer and I recommend it to anyone.

Compact efficient office printer. Text quality excellent and color printing on plain paper is very good. Print speed is acceptable. Have not printed enough copies to determine longevity of the inexpensive ink cartridges but so far fills my needs for an every day printer in addition to my Epson 3880 photo printer.

Replaced an older Epson printer with this one.like how this one prints, it's quieter, and easy to set up.

I have used an Epson Stylus printer for years, and currently using the C88+. It is perfect for my needs: reasonably fast, great colors, easy to operate. It will handle 60 lb paper that I can turn and print on the back. The feeder is precise enough that pages are evenly matched. I use one of these printers until it exceeds its life, and then I throw it away and purchase another one. Great little printer!!

This is a really nice little printer. The price is kind of high for all that it does considering all in ones are less than this, but it does a great job. The only problem I am continuously having is the paper jamming when it goes under the exit bar on the way out. at least 1 in every 10 sheets gets jammed on the way out. If the paper is not perfectly flat and there is the slightest curl in the corners then the paper will jam on the way out. Other than that the quality and color is excellent.

T-Shirt Transfers Done Right
By JayF
I cannot emphasize enough how this workhorse of a printed has put more profits in my T-Shirt businesses. While I have tried the CISS bulk ink system, I still prefer the refillable cartridges on two machines, and the standard Epson ink cartridges on the third machine. Each performs well for all my T-Shirt transfers without complicated profiles I use to have to deal with for my dye sub Sawgrass Virtuoso SG400, and its very pricey inks $79.00+ each, that was limited to 100% polyester shirt appli...
