GOOD DOT MATRIX PRINTER, EASY TO USE.

By SCAMP

from CHIDESTER, AR.

Comments about EPSON� Dot Matrix Printers; FX-890:

THE FX-890 IS A GOOD PRICE, EASY TO SET UP, AND PRINTS VERY QUICKLY. I USE IT FOR INSURANCE FORMS 1500'S AND HAVE NO PROBLEM. MY ONLY CONCERN IS I CANNOT GET IT TO PRINT DARK ENOUGH. I HAVE PUT IN A NEW RIBBON AND SAME PROBLEM.

FX-890 Impact Printer

By Anonymous

from Boulder, CO

Comments about EPSON� Dot Matrix Printers; FX-890:

These printers are worthless. My company bought the first one in July 2010, the Tear Off/Bin button stopped working after 13 months of use. We purchased 2 brand new printer of the same model recently, on both new printers the same button did not work. This is substandard quality on all three printers. I will not purchase another Epson dot matrix printer.

Excellent replacement printer

By nordkyn

from Eatonville, WA

Comments about EPSON� Dot Matrix Printers; FX-890:

This printer was bought to replace an older model impact printer that would not run under Windows 7. Printer works great, Windows7 had the drivers. Print quality good. Will save a lot of money over the life of the printer.
