There is a scanner on this printer.
This is how I leave it, with the tray out. If the tray is in, then it beeps and won't print until you pull the tray out.
This is with the tray in and the screen pushed down so the printer is flat in the front.
A sample of the color it prints. It's very bright and the colors really pop off the paper.
My Thoughts
I can not tell you the last time I bought a printer. Especially one like the Epson XP-630. Prior to this printer, I have been using a very old black and white laser printer. This printer has opened up a whole new world to me. Just being able to print in color has been awesome. I'm a crafty person and I have all kinds of tings on Pinterest pinned for crafts to do, that I needed to be able to print in color. As well, I've wanted to be able to print our own photos of the kids to put up around the house. This printer has made a big difference for us already.
As far as setting up, it wasn't too complicated. My husband plugged the printer in, put in the ink that came with the box. Please note, it came with extra cartridges as well, so when these ones run out, there is an extra set ready. He then followed the instructions on the screen and connected it to our wi-fi. I then downloaded the software on my computer, and withing about fifteen minutes, we were up and running. Some of that time was that the machine needed roughly ten minutes to warm up for the first use.
I've used the printer quite a few times, and only one time has it taken it awhile to print and it had been about a week since I'd used it, so I think it needed to do as it did the day we first turned it on. I have been wirelessly printing from my laptop to the printer without any issues. I also connected my iPhone up to be able to print with it. That was a little harder, but once I had it set-up, I was good.
The printer comes with it's own e-mail address. So you can email a document to that email address and it will print. I can not verify if it works if you are not at home. I have not tested that out.
The print quality is really good. So far I have printed out documents, photos, and sticker sheets. Each one was bright and vibrant. The color didn't smear and was crisp. I was very impressed with this printer and would recommend it to someone else.
