Epson Stylus Photo R285 makes when no secret of its specialist role. Theinkjet printer is trimmed to photographs. But he brings a six-color printing with the colors blue, red, black, light red, light blue with yellow. The separate ink tanks sit on a permanent piezo print head, the minimum 1.5-picoliter droplets produced in the small.

As an interface to the computer is USB 2.0 Hi-Speed and other connections such as Pictbridge for direct printing from digital cameras are not provided. Dominated for the device to print on CDs and DVDs.

Compared to the previous Epson Stylus Photo R265, the speed has improved photo printing. With 33 seconds in our borderless 10 x 15 cm was done fast.Even with everyday tasks made the R285 a decent figure. So our ten-page Acrobat was done after 3:04 minutes, the ten-page letter-Grauert lasted 1:53 minutes. However, the printer developed in the work, a clearly audible noise, which was not only on the printer, but also on the noisy pickup. Which is harmonious in color were consistently dark a bit. But we could not detect any unwanted color cast. We activated the function Photo Enhance the driver, were the colors brighter, but also brightly colored. This was from the natural. As so often with six-color printing text printing is not just a major talent of the device. The letters were rough edges from right. Also had the black cover can be more calm.
