Quality beyond compare

The Artisan 710 delivers vibrant color photos and crisp, clear text. In fact, it’s #1 in photo quality.⁴ Working with six–color Claria^® Hi–Definition Ink, the "smart nozzles" in Epson’s exclusive DX5^™ MicroPiezo^® print head deliver up to five ink droplet sizes, some as small as 1.5 picoliters. This technology makes it possible to achieve exceptionally smooth gradations, amazingly accurate skin tones and sharp, grain–free photos.

Perfect photos, every time

Built–in Auto Photo Correction automatically evaluates and corrects digital images — better than the competition.

Prints that outlast photo lab prints

Prints made with Claria ink last up to four times longer than those from a traditional photo lab.⁵ Photos last up to 98 years in display under glass and over 200 years in an album. Photos from the leading competitor last only 65 years on display under glass. With Epson, you can feel confident in sharing your prints for generations to come. Six–color Claria Hi–Definition Ink, together with Epson premium photo papers, offers the ultimate combination of photo quality and longevity.

Be more informed

The new international ISO print speed standard

Print speed is critically important when buying a printer or all-in-one. But how do you compare print speeds when different manufacturers measure in different ways? Now you can. Much like the "MPG" ratings on new cars, there's now a new industry standard for measuring print speed, which allows for an "apples-to-apples" comparison between different printer models and brands. The International Organization for Standardization (widely known as ISO) developed this industry approved and internationally accepted standard, specifically for ink jet printers and all-in-ones. It measures "out of the box" (default) print speeds using "real world" printing scenarios, so you can be sure you're getting a product that performs at the speed you need.

5.0 out of 5 stars Side by side with Canon October 14, 2009

By MinasOriginals

I read review after review debating which printer I should buy for mostly photo reproduction. While not wanting to go to the large size, photo dedicated pro version....I wanted to stay under $200. It came down to the Canon Mp640 and the Epson Artisan 710. Reviewers were pretty much split between the two as positive and negative...What to do? Both have very similar features...wirless, scan, etc..neither of which had much to do with my decision. I finally just decided to take my SD card and have each printer print two or three of the same pic. I started with the Canon, and the print menu was easy and the print speed was great. The pics were very good, but at side angle, had a bit of a hazy quality. Uploaded the same images to the Epson....there was no comparison, photo lab quality through and through. There were areas of one image that were dark and undifined in the Canon print, but were detailed and exposed well in the Epson.
When you also look at Epson having a 2 year warranty vs. 1 for Canon, it says something. The real kicker is from my research, I had every intention of buying the Canon....but the proof was in the photos.

2.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful prints, when it's not clogged October 11, 2009

By Overzeetop

This machine is just a hairs breadth from spectacular. The prints are beautiful, they come out fast, and the built in cd printer is a huge improvement over the old removable trays. Now, I've owned epsons for many years, of all different types going back to the MX-80.

If you buy this, you'd better have a deep wallet. At first, the 6 cartridges seems like a good idea. What isn't clear from the beginning is that the charging cycle is ink-wide - all 6 carts are initialized when you replace a cartridge, draining what appears to be about 7-10% of each cartridge in the process. If you replace one cart that is dead, with others that are less than 10-15%, you'll find that all the "low" cartridges are "out" after the charging cycle!

But it gets better. To try and keep the heads clear and clean, the machine runs a fairly extensive cleaning/purging cycle when it turns on or comes out of sleep. I've had as few as 6-7 printing sessions of just 2-3 sheets per session on a full size cartridge set (all 6 - about $80 of ink). I don't print very often at home - maybe once every ten days. That means it's always running a (2-3 minute long) start up purge for each print session. After I got my first actual banding (which requires an ink-sucking cleaning cycle or three), I switched to a continuous inking system. The ink-drain has been confirmed, but at least now I'm paying a dime per cleaning cycle instead of a couple dollars and there's no new-cartridge-cycle losses.

I think these machines just aren't meant to sit unused. If you don't print multiple times a day, most of your ink will be spent in cleaning. If you do print multiple times a day, you'll get beautiful prints - but you'll go through a lot of ink. Either way, plan on buying a full set of carts every month.

5.0 out of 5 stars Artisan 710, a step up November 28, 2009

By NV Rick

The Artisan 710 I have is a replacement for an Artisan 700 I originally purchased.
I will first address the customer service of Epson in regard to this replacement.
The 700 that I originally purchased developed an ink clog that would not clear after numerous attempts to clean it. I had registered the 700 so I was eligible for overnight replacement. I received a refurbished 700, but that printer was defective. (I also received a set of high capacity cartridges with it.) I called Epson, and asked to speak to a second tier tech. After relating my experiences with the two defective 700's, the tech said that instead of sending another refurbished 700, I would be sent a new Artisan 710. She also agreed to send another set of high capacity ink jet cartridges since I had used up most of the ones I had in the original 700 while attempting to clear the nozzles.

My impression of Epson customer service is that they went beyond what is required in their warranty. Getting an upgraded printer was worth about $50 more than the original 700. The two sets of high capacity cartridges was worth almost $200. (I did get the regular capacity sets as well.) Overnight shipping with pre-paid return for the defective printers was also included.

Installation is much improved over the Artisan 700. Connection to a wireless network is simple. The 710 found my network immediately and it was just a matter of entering the encryption key.

Now as to the features of the Artisan 710. I have used Epson printers for almost twenty years. Each new model has provided the highest quality prints available possible with the technology available when it was introduced. The 710 continues that trend. The printer is quieter and faster than the previous models I have owned. The Claria ink produces beautiful images and is instantly dry when leaving the printer. Claria ink is purported to have a lifetime similar to commercial printing. CD and DVD printing is great if using quality media. I use TDK White Matte DVD+R and Verbatim silver CD-R printable media.
Scanning is simple, although I did have to run the installation disk a second time in order to make the scanner connect wirelessly. Scanning works with any program that supports Twain.

I have found that the 710 seems to use much less ink during normal printing than the 700. I got the 710 a little over a month ago and all of the (standard capacity) ink cartridges still show as almost full.

Some have complained that there are only a few sheets of 4x6 Ultra Premium photo paper included with the printer, along with one printable cd. This is enough to allow new owners to see what is possible with this printer. Previous owners of Epson printers, such as myself, already know which media they need. To include a full package of paper would undoubtedly increase the cost of the printer. It would also possibly be a waste for people like me who only print 8x10 photos. Like any product which relies on disposables, such as razors, Epson makes their real money on ink and paper. It is up to the individual customers to determine which of these disposables they need.
