Epson XP-247 Printer Review

Expert review of the Epson XP-247 printer

Our Verdict:

The Epson XP-247 is a home-suitable scanner, printer and copier combined into a single stylish unit that will grace any modern home office environment and provide adequate functionality for the small- to medium-scale user. The use of individual ink cartridges avoids having to replace all inks when only one of them runs out, thereby cutting costs. Epson Connect is used from any smart device to enable printing while out and about, and the results are clear and crisp, with lab-quality photo handling.

Design

The Epson XP247 weighs in at a mere 3.9kg and has dimensions of 15.3x11.8x5.7 inches, making it easy to move around the home or office. Along with the unit are bundled ink cartridges, a power cable and Epson Easy Print software. The 5760x1440 dpi print resolution creates crisp, clear copies and the print speed of 27 pages monochrome, or 15 pages of colour prints, is suitable for most home and small office needs. The flatbed scanner operates through a contact image sensor, and the single paper tray takes the duplex pages. Paper feeding is manual, and envelopes may be fed in, as well as a range of paper types and sizes, including the standard A4 to B5.

Advantages

The Epson XP-247 offers all the print, scan and copy capabilities needed by the average home or small office user, combined into a flexible and stylish shell. It offers very good value for money, and the use of individual ink cartridges is a definite plus point, along with the ability to print on the go via the app. The printer can also be connected directly to any smart device.

Disadvantages

Some users may find that the limited paper feeding is not suitable for their needs, and the LCD panel can be a little simplistic and limited. The traditional, square shape of the printer lacks a little on the aesthetic side.
