Home > Consumer Reviews > Epson Stylus SX600FW All-in-One Printer with Fax and WiFi

I Bought this printer just over a week ago, and it only took about 10 minutes to set up, which included installing all the software then connecting to the Wireless router using the software supplied on the installation CD.

The only problem I found was, in order to set up the wireless connection, you first had to connect the printer to the computer using the supplied Network Cable as your computer needs to send information regarding your wireless network setup to the printer to allow it to connect.. However, once this is done and the settings have been sent, you can disconnect this lead and set up the wireless connection using your WPA or WEP code to make it secure (Just remember that WEP codes are case sensitive).

Once up and running the print quality is excellent with pure pages of text coming through at remarkable speed, the photo quality is OK but not fantastic, so if you are after it for photographic quality prints I would look at a higher model in the range which come with 6 inks rather than 4..

Personally I bought it for the WIFI which is an excellent addition to the Epson range allowing me to connect this printer to all the machines in my business... the scanning / faxing facilities are both excellent as well as the Copying facilities for both Black and white, and colour. I did tests on the colour copying which showed little or no difference from the original copy, and only took about 20 seconds for an A4 sheet of colour images and text. The on screen interface is also quite easy to use once you get used to which features are under which heading

All in all I would say it an excellent little all in one printer with the added bonus of WIFI at a very good price, I bought a DX9400F for a client less than 3 months ago which was more expensive, and this printer has the same features plus WIFI for at least £30-40 less... Excellent Value...

I bought this for £95 delivered from somewhere else but it's a great printer (so far!!). The quality is excellent, it's fast and quiet and was relatively easy to set up. Took a bit of experimentation as we have an Orange Livebox so I had to press a button on there in order for the printer to communicate with the computer but once I had figured that out it was perfect!! Great to have the printer upstairs and be able to print to it anywhere in the house. Not sure if we'll ever use the fax option but nice to have it anyway. And the sheet-feeder for the photocopier is cool.

Also, the screen on the printer is good, easy to navigate and clear. The memory card reader can be used so that all computers within the wireless network can access the contents. A good feature I think and you can select read-only if you like so that your piccys don't get deleted.

A great price and so far we're really pleased with it!!

I was looking for a cheap wireless printer for home use only (occasional letters, printing online statements, kids' project work etc)and this printer serves my needs adequately. The photo print quality is not brilliant but I do not plan to use that extensively. Copying and scanning are acceptable. Have not used the fax mode. LCD screen is quite user friendly. My main worry was seting up the wireless and I did that (Vista Home Premium, Sky Sagem Router) without any major problem from the CD and range is very good. Just take care not to connect the printer till all the drivers are installed and you are told to do so. As mentioned you'd need the Ethernet cable for the first time but not afterwards anymore. Also make sure that during the intial network setup the wireless LAN in the Printer Panel is disabled. Also I realised my cordless phone was interfering with the WiFi. I have looked in E-bay and compatible cartridges are not that expensive. Would have given 5 stars if the prints/copies were crisper but perfectly acceptable for home user.

Picked one of these up from PC world for £99, as I needed a scanner/printer which could be used by any PC on my network. Works like a charm. I have mine connected via ethernet to my home network, but the machine also supports wireless if you prefer. Scanning is excellent, supporting scanning to PDF and JPEG files, and the print output is very good. Print speed is super-quick compared to my old epson stylus.
The document feeder is very convenient for scanning, as you don`t need to lift the lid to place a document inside, which speeds up the scanning process significantly.
I have not yet printed any colour photo`s, but I would expect the quality to be only average as this printer only uses 4 inks. If high quality photo printing is essential, then you may be better off getting a 6 ink model.
At this price, its a bargain. Highly recommended.

This is my second WiFi printer now, I had a lexmark one that was super expensive to run and annoying to setup.

This one has cheap ink, loads of features and very easy to setup on the WiFi.

I would recommend this to anyone.
