s technology gallops onwards, the world
is focusing more and more on the
internet. That’s true of artists these days
who are more likely to pick up a stylus
than a paintbrush, but also of the modern-day
photographer who is more likely to spend their time
in Photoshop than in the darkroom.
Photoshop users are more likely to share their
work online than they are to print it out, but that
doesn’t mean that there aren’t some fantastic
printers on the market at the moment. They have to
be good too: printers will get left behind if they don’t
keep up with the evolution of technology, so these
days, you’re likely to see smaller printers, moreadvanced scanning resolutions, Wi-Fi connections,
and in the case of the Epson Expression Photo
XP-860, the ability to scan and print straight to and
from Facebook.
The XP-860 also looks and feels extremely
modern and very stylish. The sleek, black casing
hides the paper tray, which can be opened by
flipping up the lid of the machine, and the scanner
is easily hidden on a separate layer.
Adding to its modern features and look, the
Epson weighs less than ten kilograms. It’s a
space-saver, but as with so many small printers,
does the size compromise the more ambitious
capabilities of the XP-860?EPSON’S LATEST COMPACT PRINTER PACKS AN INCREDIBLE ARRAY OF FEATURES
AND A BEAUTIFUL DESIGN. BUT IS IT REALLY AS HIGHQUALITY AS IT LOOKS?
