Examination of the Epson Stylus S21
Buying a budget printer like the Epson Stylus S21 can be an expensive mistake to make if you don’t first check the price of replacement printer ink cartridges. The Epson S21 ink cartridges are expensive compared to the cost of the printer itself but they are affordable if bought as a multi-pack, the real value however is to be found in the compatible printer cartridges from third party companies. I terms of functions the Stylus S21 only has one – printing, and it does this very well and will surpass most people expectations as its not only capable of the everyday printing tasks like web and general text printing but also high quality photographs. The speed in which its prints is not so impressive however, Epson claim the S21 is capable of printing 25 pages per minute in draft quality but in standard quality mode which is the minimum quality most people use the print speed is more like 2 pages per minutes and quite a difference. Build quality of the Epson S21 is a pleasant surprise printers in this class usually feel like they’re made out of cardboard and like they could brake if you press a button too hard, but the plastics used in the S21 feel strong and solid and should stand the test of time. The look of the S21 in modern, with a dark grey case black lid so should fit in with most people’s other IT equipment.
