Epson XP-510 Printer Review

The Epson Expression Premium XP-510 is quite the versatile all-in-one inkjet printer, especially considering its compact size and affordable price tag. It has built-in Wi-Fi support and can print at ISO speeds of 9.5 pages per minute for black and 9 pages per minute for color. The Claria system of Epson XP-510 ink is also designed to last for decades under the right conditions.

Although it lacks faxing capabilities, the XP-510 can handle printing, scanning, and copying quite efficiently. It includes duplex printing as a standard feature, and the maximum output resolution is 5760x1440 dpi, resulting in very sharp and detailed prints. Not only do photos look great, but text quality is praised as well, making it a very well-rounded device for a home office.

The control panel features a small LCD screen that won't do much more than display menu options and tiny images previews. Of course, users can also keep tabs on the supply of paper and Expression Premium XP-510 printer ink remaining, as well as the status of current jobs. The input paper capacity is a bit limited, with only a single 100-sheet paper tray available, and it lacks a multipurpose feed, so users will have to empty the tray to use any alternative media types.

The system uses five Epson XP-510 ink cartridges including a "photo black" supply. The cost of Epson XP-510 ink is relatively affordable, and capacities are solid. Each color Expression Premium XP-510 ink cartridge can last for around 300 pages, while the black supplies are rated for 250 pages.

While no all-in-one inkjet model can truly do it all, the Epson XP-510 strikes a good balance of features with a compact design that make it a great choice for home users. While the cost of supplies could be a little more affordable, its output quality and solid speeds make it a good value.
