Epson Expression Premium XP-625 Printer Description

Outstanding glossy photos and clear text documents can be produced by the Epson Expression Premium XP-625.

The model, which is compact and able to provide flexible printing options for home users, has two front-loading paper trays in addition to a 6.8cm LCD screen with touch panel.

Seen by Epson as a “no-compromise solution for the modern home”, the machine boasts Epson Connect which consists of Epson iPrint. This feature allows for easy wireless printing from smartphones and tablets.

Printing photos from Facebook can be done with the help of Epson Creative Print whilst Epson Email print enables users to print from virtually anywhere in the world by emailing documents and photographs to the printer directly. Additional wireless support can be found with Google Cloud Print and AirPrint.

With the printer’s Automatic Wi-Fi set up, connecting to a wireless network is a simple task. Connecting a compatible device can be carried out without the need for a wireless router via Wi-Fi Direct.

For added convenience, wireless PictBridge compatible cameras can be printed from. There is also the functionality to print double sided as well as on CDs and DVDs.

Epson Expression Premium XP-625 Expert Review

When it comes to design and usability, the Epson Expression Premium XP-625 will offer home users a stylish model that is simple to navigate and can carry out a range of functions with ease.

The printer has a small footprint which means it can be kept on a desktop and the tilting touch panel adds to what is a stylish device. It’s not a case of style over substance though as the XP-625 has a 100-sheet paper capacity and is even able to provide auto duplexing.

It’s this ability to print on both sides of the page which, when combined with the connectivity options, could see this used as a home office printer.

Home office users may be encouraged by the news that this machine can print at 13ppm for mono and 10ppm for colour.

Amateur photography enthusiasts will also appreciate the vibrant and vivid colours that can be produced by a machine with a print resolution of 5760 x 1440dpi. The inclusion of Epson Easy Photo Print software will also be popular with photo printing fans.

In a competitive all-in-one market, this printer holds its own as an all-in-one machine that could be best suited to a family where photo printing takes place often as well as document printing for a child’s school work.

Pros

• Auto duplexing function
• Excellent quality photo prints
• Stylish model with small footprint

Cons

• Copy quality not as high as print quality
