Epson L565 Inkjet printers review


When it comes to printers, I strongly recommend Epson Printers; Epson L565 is my third Epson printer after L800 and L805 and I must say there is nothing better . L565 is an all in one printer which provides scan (upto 4800 DPI), Copy, Print and Fax. It also provides WIFI connectivity besides the normal USB Cable connection mode.
Priced around Rs.17000, I must say it is one of the best printers for home or for small business (i.e- office, cafĂ©. Etc). Epson L565 uses four colour tanks, i.e- Yellow, Magenta, Cyan and Black and though it is not a photo printer but the printing quality is immaculate and can be compared to L800 or L805.  So as far as printing is concerned no other brand can beat Epson (I also have a Canon G2000, and comparatively the printing quality is so much better).

The only problem I feel is the printing speed which is a rather slow when you compare it to Epson L800 or Epson L805.

Let’s move on the scanning functionality, it provides scan resolution up to 4800 DPI so you can imagine the precision with which it can scan documents, yes it is a bit slow comparatively but it also provides lower resolution scanning which is fast an smooth. Also it has inbuilt PDF and Email scanning functionality, so you don’t need additional software’s to convert your JPG to PDF. So overall I would still rate Epson L565 a better all in one printer than other brands.

I don’t use the Fax service so I wouldn’t be able to tell about it.

Normally with Epson L800 or L805 the warranty provided was 3000 pages or 1 year which ever was earlier but with Epson l565 it is 30,000 pages or 1 year whichever is earlier. This is one reason I was impressed with the printer and so, far after using it for about a month, I must say it hasn’t let me down.

WHy XRP ( Ripple) price surging ? is it being added to Coinbase ?

Well Bitcoin is the mother of all Cryptocurrency but it still is far away from being used as a currency in real world, on the other hand, Ripple is very close to being used in the real world which is the main reason why it price rose more than 10 times in just over a months time.

American Express and U.K. Santander bank have tied up with Ripple for hastening cross border payments between U.S and U.K. Besides  Japan bank Consotium started testing the use of Ripple which brings the block chain technology a step closer to the real world, so is the reason for the surge in the price of XRP.

Of all the cryptocurrency, the Ripple technology is more bound to change the way cross border payments are to be made which makes it a very hot cryptocurrency to have in your portfolio. If you believe in the rise of Bitcoin than it would be prudent to keep at least few XRP ( Ripple ) in you holdings. Who knows it may be the next Bitcoin in making.

Another reason why Ripple price is rising recently also is because of rumors of it being listed on coinbase. Crypto listing on coinbase literally, doubles or triples in mere a month or two. SO all the right reasons to hold XRP or Ripple in your portfolio.

P.S : I am  not expecting Ripple to hit 10,000 dollars but may be 15-100 dollars is pretty realistic. XRP just hit 3 dollars when I am posting this article on my blog. Hope by next year this time XRP price will rise 10 X from here.
