Epson CX5400 Ink Stylus CX5400 Ink Cartridges

Who says a single device can't handle the printing, scanning, and copying daily tasks in an office and also produce top-quality photographs? The Epson Stylus CX5400 can do all of the above and is still affordable and compact. Either for a small office or home, this inkjet device impresses with efficient speeds and exceptional quality. A fax function is not included on the CX5400, but documents can be scanned and sent directly to email, which is generally a sufficient alternative option that also saves paper.

Color prints can be produced at a rate of 11 pages per minute, while standard black-and-white documents can be printed at 22 pages per minute. It will take up to 72 seconds to print a color 4x6-inch photo, but the impressive 5760x1440 dpi resolution certainly makes it worth the wait. The DURABrite Epson CX5400 ink is designed to be resistant to water damage, smudging, and light, allowing photographs to remain sharp and vivid for many years.

The Micro Piezo drop-on-demand technology is unique to Epson. The black Stylus CX5400 ink is ejected through 180 nozzles while each of the other colors of printer ink (cyan, magenta, and yellow) is dispersed through 59 nozzles. The dots of Epson Stylus CX5400 ink are only 3 picoliters each, which creates fine detail and true-to-life color.

The maximum capacities this inkjet all-in-one device has to offer are a bit low for a busy office, but perfect for a small office or home. The maximum print capacity for a month is 5,000 pages, though the max paper capacity is only 150 sheets of plain paper. The cyan, magenta, and yellow Epson CX5400 ink cartridges can each yield up to 420 pages, while the black printer ink will last for up to 870 pages. If the device is used to its maximum capacity, replacements might be needed quite often. Fortunately, third-party vendors offer remanufactured Stylus CX5400 ink cartridges, which cost considerably less than the OEM versions.

The main downside of the CX5400 is its lack of networking, with only a USB port for connection to a single PC. For personal or small business use, though, there are few machines on the market that will offer as many features and functions for such an affordable price.
