* Yields based on ISO/IEC 24711 tests in default mode printing continuously. Actual yields will be lower with higher-density images, hot or dusty conditions, less frequent printing, or printing predominantly with one color. All ink colors are used for printing and all-in-one maintenance, and all colors have to be installed for printing. For print quality, part of the ink from the included cartridges is used for printer startup and a variable amount of ink remains in the cartridges after the “replace cartridge” signal. For details, see www.epson.com/cartridgeinfo
- Fastest in its class; printing black text in default, single-side mode, in accordance with ISO/IEC 24734. Compared to ink jet all-in-ones priced at $149 or less, as of February 2011, based on manufacturer rated ISO speeds or independent testing.

Amazon Verified Purchase
I have been looking for a decent printer to do some light duty work for my home. I didn't want something too expensive with ridiculous ink cartridge prices. I didn't want something that had extreme HD qualities. I came across this printer on Amazons lightening deal page going for $59.99. I noticed that the cartridges were a decent price and that it had everything but a fax (no big deal). It lacked any reviews but Epson has put out several good printers. I received the printer a few days later and set about setting it up via wireless connection. Fairly easy even without a USB cable. The instruction manual and CD instructions carry you right through the process. Easy, but time consuming. After installing the software, it goes about updating itself and then updates the printers firmware. Didn't run into a single glitch. Took about fifteen minutes from installing the cartridges to setting it at its final resting place. I adjusted the settings to conserve ink and have printed several things up already. Decent, inexpensive printer with effortless wireless setup. Really can't beat this thing. I can't speak for photo printing because I rarely do any. I will update the review in a couple months as to how the printer is fairing.
Update 1/1/12:
Just thought I'd add a few updates. I have found the fast economy setting too strenuous on my eyes. I bumped it to regular economy setting. Saves my eyes and still saves ink. Paper tray is a little finicky as far as squaring up the paper to be loaded properly. Used it to copy a diagram for work. Copy portion worked fine. I have not had any glitches or major problems yet. So far, great buy.
Last Update 2/11/12:
Continues to function correctly. Tried a photo for the first time and it came out excellent. I have also tried fairly heavy paper in the printer. The heavier paper didn't have an issue going through printer. IMHO, a solid printer for the money.
NOTE: Price of printer has dramatically risen since December. If it had cost $100 dollars + shipping when I bought the printer, I likely would not have purchased it. I am a firm believer that a good printer can be found and purchased for $80 dollars or less. Most home printers are rarely utilized and dishing out too much for an object that might sit for a month before use is silly.

Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
The Epson NX530 printer offers a lot of bang for the buck. It allows:
Wireless set-up and operation, eliminating the need for a cable completely, and allows operation from another room--particularly useful if you've got multiple computers feeding to a single printer;
Very fast printing for an ink jet (about one b&w page every four seconds);
Color printing and copying as well as black and white;
Good, but not exceptional, photo printing (if that's a priority, consider a printer that's specifically designed for photo printing);
A 150-page paper drawer, allowing you to do a fair amount of printing before reloading;
Easy LED-screen controls that are intuitive and simple;
Separate cartridges for each color ink (and a separate black and white cartridge), so you don't have to replace the whole set after running out of one color (I found replacing the cartridges very simple and quick, and they're reasonably priced);
Ability to print directly from a camera memory card, so you don't have to turn on your computer or hook up your camera and download the images before printing a photo;
Ability to email a photo image directly from your cellphone to the printer;
Photocopying capability, including adjusting the size of the image;
Scanning capability, together with software that makes basic scanning simple;
Automatic double-sided copying; and
Relatively small size.
Limitations:
No fax capability; and
One paper drawer means you'll have to hand-load paper of a different type or dimension if your job requires different types of copies.
(Epson also makes the NX430, which costs only a little less. For that sum, the NX530 offers the paper drawer, automatic double-sided copying, and faster printing, with a slightly larger footprint.)
I found wireless set-up easy, and was scanning and touching up photos within an hour of unpacking it. The quality of the black and white text is excellent, while that of photos is acceptable, especially for prints smaller than 8x10. The LED touch screen controls are straightforward.
This printer isn't designed for constant, high-volume printing day after day. The ink cartridges and paper would require frequent replacement, and I don't think it would last very long with that kind of use. The NX530 is recommended for personal use or a home office that requires light to moderate printing. For heavier use, look into one of the Epson WorkForce models (or other manufacturers' printers), or a laser printer, which offer more durability and flexibility.

Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
This is a very well designed and thought out product; extremely simple to set up, easy to use functionality and it does many things well. It is true it doesn't have a fax, but we got rid of our landline a long time ago. For the modern world, for most people, and certainly for me the ability to scan and then email is just as good.
The first striking thing about the NX530 is how easy it is to set up. Adding the printer to my wireless network could not have been easier. The LCD display screen when you first turn it on and prime the ink has an option set up wizard. I pressed OK and it found my named network right away. I pressed OK. It asked for the network password. I entered it and then the printer was part of the network. It took less than 2 minutes.
After that I downloaded the software for my netbook and used the supplied CD disc for my notebook. I choose printer already part of the network and both computers were good to go. You will want the software for the EpsonScan software. If you have an iPhone you will also Epson iPrint app. The NX530 was not listed but the NX430 was, probably because the NX530 is a newer model. But no problems, the iPrint app works great. It found the printer and it has options to print Photos, web page print, and even operate the scanner.
I was interested in the scanner and put it through a few items. the scanner does need to be controlled with iPrint or the EpsonScan software. It did not find either computer from the printer itself, it will only find a printer connected via USB. But with the EsponScan from either of my computers it worked fine and downloaded the scanned image exactly where I wanted it to. I used the 'professional mode'. This let me scan some old color photos to an incredibly high DPI. I choose 1200 DPI which resulted in a 4 by 6 inch photo coming out to around a 4.5 meg file. It was reproduced very accurately. It took around 2 minutes to scan and I had to tell it was a 4 by 6 photo. Using preview you can see if you have placed the photo in the correct spot on the scanner bed. Scanning a black and white page at 300 DPI took only a few seconds. And if you are scanning as a PDF you get an option to have a new page become part of the same document which is very handy.
One of the main things about buying a printer is you are really buying an Ink supplier. The cost of Ink will dwarf the cost of the printer itself. It turns out Epson gives you a lot of flexibility. You have two options, the 125 line and the 127 line. The 127 line costs more but gives you higher capacity. I will go this way when I need refills. Both the 125 and 127 have excellent reviews on Amazon. You have a black cartridge and 3 color cartridges. On my current printer I only use black. I use Photo services to print my Photos. I did borrow some photo print paper and was very pleased with the results on the NX530. However I have found in the past it is cheaper to use store print services. But for those that want to print photos you not only get good quality, and VERY fast drying ink, but you can put your photo card directly into the printer. The printer came supplied with regular 125 cartridges not half starter cartridges, a nice touch from Epson. Another neat function is that from your computer once you install the software it will check for any firmware updates. There was one and I initialized it from the computer and it installed in a few minutes.
The printer itself is a nice design. The control panel slides out for easy reading and use. The buttons are large. the top of the printer has a nice texture. The paper tray is easy to adjust and clearly marked for various sizes. In the end Epson has made an extremely easy to use wireless printer. It takes just a couple of minutes to get the computer on your network. The functions are all easy to use via smartphone, computer, or directly from the printer with the exception of scanning which you will need to control from a computer or smartphone. The print quality for documents and photos is very good. You have the ability to do double sided printing. Scanning produces excellent results. The ink gets good reviews. I personally trust Epson and Canon the most when it comes to printers. Epson put a lot of many decades of printer know how into the NX530 and user friendliness and it shows. Highly recommended.
