Question 1

Is this a good home printer if not using for photos?

Accepted Answer

This is a good printer. I have used the excellent Epson XP printers for a very long time. Much of my recommendation, however, is based on the quality of graphics that I print. The photos, DVDs and colorful pages for my granddaughters are great. I hope this helps.

Question 2

How much does the ink cost?

Accepted Answer

Prices vary, of course. There are two levels of ink that go with this machine, standard and XL. It uses black, cyan, magenta, yellow, and photo black and all colors are available in both sizes. The standard black is twice the size of the other colors. The XL cartridges give a bit more than twice the ink of the standard, but cost less than twice as much, so they're overall a better bargain. For example, a standard 410 cyan direct from Epson is $12.99 currently, but the 410XL is $18.99. The combo box has an XL black but standard capacity colors. The XL colors don't come in a combo box but must be ordered separately. For whatever it's worth, I only use XL after the setup cartridges in the box run out.

Question 3

is this a FAX machine too?

Accepted Answer

NO it does not  fax BUT if you are using Windows 7 -10  windows does comes with a fax and scan program., BUT you need an active  landline phone jack to plug a computer modem into so you can send the fax.  No home or office phone lines?  You can still use subscription fax services, usually $4.99 a month IF you can justify the cost. No equipment needed, just internet!  Google fax services ,for more info. 
IF you HAVE a landline phone line it’s cheaper to buy a fax modem, than pay for a monthly faxing  subscription!  BUT  make sure your computer does not already have an internal modem. Look on the side of your computer.  Does it have a plug like the one you insert a wall jack?  If it does, then your computer already has a modem installed.  If that’s the case, you can already use Windows fax and scan. ( To use the scanning option you do need to attach your printer scanner to your computer).
Most likely you won’t have an internal modem, so you will need to purchase a modem. ( Google Computer Modem - prices range $ 20-40. They use USB to attach to your computer.

Once you have a fax modem, open Windows Fax and Scan.  ( Find it using your computer search). The program is fairly self explanatory.  Just follow directions.

Note: Some businesses still fax documents so faxing is NOT 100% gone!  I am aware I can scan and email re are times I want to send something to a business and I don’t have an email. Rather than WAIT until I can contact that business ESA and GET an email, I will simply fax the document as MOST businesses and even doctors offices list their fax number on their cards.  I find this quite efficient if doing work late at night when no one is available.  Let’s me scratch another hint off the “ to do” list!  
Also, I like my family doc to have copies of tests other doctors order ( X-rays, labs, mri etc). I always get a copy for my own records and then fax a copy over to the family doc.  I cannot tell you how many times I’ve been to a doctors office and they CANNOT find a test or report from the lab that was SUPPOSED to send it over!!!!!!  I also find with  health records, it’s impossible for doctors to find OLD tests, letters, etc, so it’s easy for me to get my copy and fax it over. Also I find with physician offices, it’s much easier to use FAX, then email!  Another business that STILL makes faxing useful!
