Epson Stylus SX525WD

Wireless Printing, Scanning, and Copying with the Epson Stylus SX525WD

The Epson Stylus SX525WD can be found for around 150 GBP or less. It can be used as a standalone copier or photo printer. It’s also got wireless technology built in, so it’s easy to add to a home network.

This model offers automated double sided printing, which is not found in Epson’s lower-priced printers. Software for photo editing and optical character recognition (OCR) are included. The 6.3 LCD colour screen and memory card slot allow the user to view and print directly, with no computer connection required.

The print speed for a monochrome document is 15 pages per minute, which is faster than many other printers in the same price range. Colour prints at 4 pages per minute, and photos at less than one minute for a 4 x 6 inch image. The colour reproduction and crispness of photos is excellent, and text is sharp.

The paper feeder can hold up to 150 sheets of A4. Many sizes and types of paper, including envelopes, can be accommodated. The scanner resolution is 2400 x 2400 dpi, and printing can be done up to 5760 x 1440 dpi. If direct connection to a computer is desired, a USB cable will have to be purchased separately. The unit is not as noisy as some other Epson printers, but could not be described as quiet.

The SX525WD holds higher capacity cartridges than many other Epson printers, so they don’t need to be changed as often. However, if they aren’t used often, the ink may dry out, clogging the print heads. The cartridges are fairly expensive, at about 40 GBP for a set of four colours. At eezytrade, we also stock printer ink for the Epson bx305fw printer.

Compatible ink cartridges produce prints with the same quality as original Epson ink at a lower cost, about 75 percent less. One difference between genuine Epson ink and compatibles is that the Epson ink contains resins, which make it water resistant and fadeproof. This is preferable for photos and other prints that need to last for a long time, while compatible cartridges can be used for day to day printing.
