EPSON Expression XP760
This EPSON Expression XP760 printer does aim at photo printing, in reality, it’s better at printing high-quality graphics pages. Photo prints do still look good but, if photos are your priority, there are better models in the Expression Premium range.
It’s an all-in-one inkjet printer with wi-fi connectivity. It produces stunning graphics prints, for example, pages containing text and images together. Photos look pretty good, too.

Unusual printers clean their print heads if you write only occasionally. That uses ink that never reaches the paper. In our test, this EPSON Expression XP760 printer used 125% more ink when occasionally printing, turning the printer off between uses, compared with printing the same number of pages in one go. That is more than many other inkjet printers we’ve tested and black text, and colour prints work out only a little pricier than average.

Photo prints look good, but this printer’s strongest suit is printing colour graphics pages. These types of pages write relatively quickly, with impressive quality graphics pages ready in just over a minute and A4 photos taking just over two minutes.

When it comes to text prints and office graphics pages such as spreadsheets and charts, the resulting prints look a little soft and ragged round the edges, but they’re acceptable. Text print speed is average, at seven pages per minute.
As a scanner and copier, it’s nothing to shout about, but the quality is good across the board, whether you’re scanning a photo or magazine page or copying in colour or black and white. Scan and copy speeds are fair. Changing the cartridges in the printer can leave you with slightly inky fingers.

The main paper plate can hold up to 100 A4 pages, and there’s also a dedicated small photo-paper tray. There’s a rear paper feed, too – handy if you want to print on thicker paper as it’s less likely to get curled up inside the printer.
You can set the printer to print on both sides of a page automatically. EPSON Expression XP – 760 prints high colour graphics and pretty good photos, but the slightly higher running costs may be off-putting.
