EpsonExpression Home XP-4200 3-in-1 Ink Multifunction Printer, Scanner, Copier, WiFi, 1440dpi, Duplex, 2.4 Inch Display, DIN A4, incl. 3 Months Readyprint Flex Trial

Greater printer replaced the Epson I had for some years. Installation was not as easy as I had hoped and took a couple of hours to figure out, but working well and a good improvement on the earlier model and prints extremely well.. Also can now print from my mobile or tablet by a simple switch on the LCD printer screen so pleased with that. In all good value

Pretty good mostly. The front facing control panel is ideal for shelf location. OK to set up and connect to computer. Print quality good. Behaves it's self OK. Build quality above its price range. I'd buy again.

Be aware this is a WiFi only printer. Works great. Doesn't print through an app so easy to use. Great value for money. Takes compatible ink cartridges with ease

I could not be more disappointed with this Printer. I bought it to replace an ageing Epson Printer that was always reliable & reasonable to run, but this thing eats print cartridges. The ones supplied ran out in 10 days. I bought a genuine set of refills and have a low ink message after one month of occasional use. It did connect seamlessly to my computer but printing is a chore with lots of whirring and chugging before it prints anything. The screen display is so small and such low resolution its impossible to decipher which button its instructing you to press. It has been a total waste of money and ignore this review at your peril. I would suggest thinking about whether you really need a colour printer. If not buy a mono laserjet. Scan or copy function on this is redundant anyway now smart phones can quickly and easily scan documents into PDF files. So with hindsight I dont need the majority of this printers basic functions and very much regret buying it.

Great printer easy to use and set up . Got it connected to my WiFi . Ink was easy to setup too and it prints with agility and ease.Thank you epson and Amazon.

After reading mixed reviews, I was a little hesitant to purchase this printer. However, it does the job!It’s not too noisy, easy to set up to my laptop, wireless connectivity is seamless!The quality is lovely, very compact, you can open it up when in use and also fold down the screen and paper trays for when it’s out of use.Can’t comment on how long the inks last as yet as I haven’t used it enough.I think this is a really good budget printer!

I ordered this xp4200 printer to replace an existing Epson and was having problems after a few years.I chose this brand as I don't print a lot and didn't want one that I was tied into a subscription gor ink that I may never use, I wanted to be in control.I was aware that I may have to download the Epson app for the first time to set up the printer but was not a deal breaker as most stuff you buy/use has an app these days.I set up the initial printer components manually from the box instructions and then used the app thereafter to connect to my phone. However, if I'd wanted to I could have used the small printer screen to do this so the app is a nice to have for ease of use. Felt the app setup was a little long winded, not made clear in the app that passcode they wanted was the pass code under the lid of the printer itself not your WiFi code. Good idea to write the printer pass code down before you start. After the printer was set up it was easy to connect to WiFi.My main problems were that though I had input the cartridges correctly the print quality was awful. It appeared to be not recognising the genuine epson blue cartridge at a all. Followed all the nozzle checks, head cleaning, etc in help/faqs. By the time I'd done that multiple times I'd emptied the cartridges that came with the printer which are only part full. I had purchased a full set of genuine cartridges and replaced all them. Frustrating to find the printer had the same problem in recognising the same. At this point I gave up, had to be a printer issue not an ink one. Couldn't even get a decent test printArranged a return to amazon for full order and a refund was given. Collection was areanged by amazon CS. Worried if I ordered another printer from amazon, same model it, it may be from same batch and may have same problem. Or I could have just been unlucky?Ordered same printer from another big store website along with extra Epson cartridges. Replacement printer set up no issues. No need for nozzle/head cleaning. All setup inks still in printer and not needed to use ones I purchased. Perfect print first time used.The printer itself is compact. Like that is does double sided printing. Would have liked a flat bed paper feed but probably in more expensive models. You can use the control panel on printer to do most things, however, I find it a lot easier using the app to do what I need. I also followed the prompts in the setup to also connect my laptop so I can print direct from there as well as my phone. Like how you can see your ink levels in the app and laptop. My old printer did not show these which I put down to being blocked by Epson as not using genuine cartridges. A bit naughty really as without the ink level indicator working you can end up replacing more cartridges than needed. Some reviews here say that Epson blocks 3rd party cartridges, but will give them a go at some point as the replacement Epson inks are ridiculously expensive for what they are, especially if you do a lot of colour printing or photos.At this time I'm happy with the printer, watching the ink levels and monitoring how long the setup cartridges last before I need to use my own. To me, the control panel on the printer is of less use to me as I personaly prefer to use my phone. If you purchase this printer and the setup cartridges don't work, it may be the printer fault not the ink.What I did like was that though Epson do a replacement ink service, but this isn't mandatory to sign up to for low ink users where in that case you are paying for something you aren't using and don't need.Time will tell how long this printer will last. As a low and occasional user hopefully a few years.3 stars for the experience of this purchase as had to return printer as faulty and wasted my own cartridges in the process. Based on using a second one purchased elsewhere and seems to be working well, I'd give that 4 stars. Longer term use and experiences of my replacement printer would have to factored to store a 5 star rating.

Initial impressions as per other reviews were that the build quality was not so good, the paper feed is a bit cheap and plasticky but works ok. The panel appears cheap but is usable and works fine.Setup easily enough using a usb cable and laptop, app wouldn't work initially. After setup on the PC printing and scanning was easy to achieve via the desktop application. I was also able to use the app to print and scan, it seems the initial setup via the pc connected the printer to the WiFi network to allow WiFi printing via the app. The mobile app works fine though doesn't look very clean and professional.Print quality is decent and acceptable though photo quality is not amazing. Scan quality is much better and very easy to use.- Note Alexa integration doesn't seem to be available for the UK, but not a big issue. -Overall a decent basic printer/scanner for home/office use.
