Speed Test Instant Ink

Next I printed off a picture on photo paper. I used HP Premium Photo Paper for both printers. First I printed a photo using the HP printer. I found it quite a frustrating experience, possibly due to my inexperience of printing photographs off (I usually upload to a site and get them to do it for me). I couldn’t get the photo paper tray to work at all and eventually managed to get the photo paper to feed in through the paper tray. Along the way I managed to print off the picture on an A4 piece of paper (I took the A4 out to start with as directed, but then put a sheet back in when it seemed to object) and I also managed to print off half a picture because I think of not properly aligning things inside the paper tray. Once I’d dealt with these problems though, I quickly (53 seconds) had a very good quality photograph in my hands.

For the Epson my new-found experience was beginning to show and I only had one false start where I printed out the picture on the back of the photo paper rather than the front (this because it wasn’t clear which side needed to be facing when putting the paper into the tray). Once that issue was solved I was able to print off my photo in, but it took a lot longer, in fact over 2 minutes.

For the record I didn’t find either printer had very good instructions for loading printer paper. Both have very small instruction manuals, mostly pictures and not many words, and rely on you using the instructions on the small screen on the printer itself. This works fine for somethings, but it wasn’t so good when loading the paper.

What about result quality? No contest in my view: the HP print is lighter and brighter. Would I have been happy with the Epson quality? Yes, for the most part I was, but some of the shots look a bit too dark, so it would depend on the image I was printing. I’d rather not have that variation to be honest.
