Does it use a lot of ink? Is there a battery in the printer

This model does not have a battery. The printer is surprisingly efficient with ink useage for such all cartridges. I typically get 30 to 50 pages of mediim to high quality print from a standard cartridge. I found a source for off brand cartridges very reasonably priced. Be careful with this though, some reviewers damaged their printers with lower quality off brand ink.

No battery. The ink cartridges are quite small, so you don't need to be using it as a producrion printer. I use mine as a travel printer for business. Only about 90 pages of text per black cartridge.

As I recall (I've slept since then)....it does come with ink cartridges but you might need to buy a printer cable? Although we did purchase new cartridges fairly soon after buying the unit so thee cartridges are probably not filled all the way. What do you expect for under $40?. :)

It has a relatively big tank, I've never had a problem with running out of ink before I empty it myself to change colors

Good morning, David! I notice that if I continually use the printer, the ink is used normally but if it sits for any length of time (e.g. week, weeks, months) than the ink dries up! The ink may be inexpensive but so much of it is wasted! I also don't like that if the color ink runs out the printer shuts down. I will not purchase another printer like this, inexpensive or not! Good luck!

Not sure what your question is? This printer does not use ink, it uses toner.

They are full. I don't use my printer everyday but the ink lasts just as long as name brand ink.

Very few. I ran out of this ink while printing B/W on this printer. This printer will use this cartridge just to do BW prints.

I have had very good service with this printer, and it is easy to operate. However, it uses a lot of ink, and despite that, I would not use any of the cheap ink on the internet, and I would buy my ink over the Internet directly from Epson, or through Amazon.

I really can't say. I have only used the printer once over an afternoon at a family reunion and the battery didn't fail. Probably printed 15-20 pictures in a two hour period but it was left on the whole time. Not heavy usage of course, but I had no troubles.

I don't believe so Andrew but I've been printing casually for about two weeks and I have not run out of ink. That being said I did order extra ink when I purchased this printer and although it is aftermarket ink I have not had to use it yet. If I had to estimate how much I've printed it would be about twenty pages so I'm really not a good gauge on how much ink came with the printer. So my advice would be to purchase replacement ink when you buy this printer whether it be Cannon or generic just do it.

Yes it does. It is a starter set so it is not a full on ink cartridge but you will be able to print some pictures.

Yes it did come with ink, but they are not full cartridges and did not last very long.

No. Comes out ready to go. Also, goes beyond low ink indicator. Meaning you can still print quite a lot until you really run out.

I don't know, but don't think it uses anymore ink than other printer. I will say I am very pleased with the quality of the print. Colors are great!

According to Consumer Reports magazine, this is one of the most ink-hungry printers out there. If I had known that in advance, I would have bought a different one.It prints very nicely, though.

Yes. Loaded with black ink and ready to go out of the box. I think it also came with an empty ink pad in case you want to use another ink color. I have been using mine for about 2 years and have yet to had to re-ink it.
