Epson Stylus Color 777 Ink Cartridges

The Epson Stylus Color 777 and 777i are designated as personal inkjet printers because their basic and easy-to-use bundle of features equip them to handle the low volumes of a single user. Even for a simple personal unit, the 777's maximum speeds of 8 pages per minute for monochrome documents and 6 pages per minute for color are slow. A number of other lackluster features place it firmly in the category of entry-level devices, offering users low-capacity Stylus Color 777 printer ink, minimal paper handling and basic control tools for an inexpensive price.

The 777 isn't technically a mobile or portable printer, but its small size of 17x10x6 inches and light weight of less than 10 pounds make it compact enough to be taken to the office or on a business trip. It lacks the convenience of wireless connectivity, instead providing parallel and USB ports for wired printing from a computer. The unit's drivers and utilities are compatible with computers that use both Windows and Mac operating systems.

The 777 has a few built-in tools, incorporating a button to turn the device on an off, and LED lights that will flash to indicate when a job is printing and when Epson 777 ink has expired. Paper handling is limited to a single input tray that can only hold 100 pages at once. Supported media ranges from premium glossy photo paper and matte paper to film and self-adhesive paper.

The machine operates with Micro Piezo technology that can print documents with clarity and a sharp resolution of 1440x720 dpi using black Stylus Color 777 ink. Part of what allows projects to have such a detailed and sharp output is its ability to print a minimum printer ink droplet size of 4 picoliters.

The device uses one tricolor Epson 777 ink cartridge that can yield up to 300 pages and another black supply with a capacity of 400 pages. To keep running costs low, users have the option to purchase remanufactured Epson 777 ink cartridges that are more affordable than OEM supplies.

For inkjet models in its price range, the 777 has a surprisingly decent output quality that can handle text, graphic and document projects. Cost-efficiency and quality are two of its only perks, considering the device has an extremely simple design, slow print speeds and minimal connectivity options.
