This also allows you to select just part of an image or enlarge/reduce the image size.
However Epson provide a range of software with the unit and this includes the excellent Epson Easy Photo Print that works with all sizes and styles of photo papers and you simply need to select the images you want to print, state the type of paper you will print them on and finally select the layout of the page and then just press print and leave the rest to the software. There are five print modes from the preferences tab 'draft', 'text', 'text & images', ' photo' and 'best photo'. Printing the more normal 1500 word document spread over four pages came in at around 10.5PPM. As always I use two main test documents the first a 200 word document printed in 'draft' mode, this printed at 12PPM and rather than the normal grey shade it has a tinge of red/brown but certainly not nice crisp sharp black. Okay - although it seems very strange - the promised A4 text page timings. Printing A4 sheets again borderless with either a single image or four near 15x10cm images took around 180seconds still quite quick but as always my main concern with photo printing is quality and not speed and the quality here is excellent. Even an A3 sheet is 42x29.7cm IE it's twice the size of A4. If you are unsure of the size of an A3+ sheet it is 48.5x33.5cm against an A4 sheet that is around 21x29.7cm.

I was amazed at the speed of printing A3+ pages at only 320seconds for either a borderless print or any other combination you may choose to print on a single sheet of photo paper.

But this printer is designed solely to print and even if you use the 'Pict Bridge' connection all your choices will need to be made on the camera. The only other connector is a 'Pict Bridge' socket on the front.
It is hard to use, lacks integration with iPhoto or other programs, and really isn’t of the quality level that Mac users are accustomed to.The printer has standard power and USB connectors on the rear with just three buttons on the front right edge. What I would have liked, however, is a better disc-printing utility than the one that comes with the printer. Even if you use the 1400 for snapshot-size prints, however, you’ll find that it uses ink more efficiently than less-expensive photo printers. The cartridges have a higher capacity than the ones Epson uses in its less-expensive printers, but are not as large as those found on more-expensive photo printers. Ink usage was decent: I got more than 100 letter-size prints on a single set of cartridges before I had to change an ink tank. Letter-size and 8-by-10-inch prints take approximately 2 minutes in high-quality mode, and 4-by-6-inch prints about a minute a large, 13-by-19-inch print tumbles out of the printer in about twice that time, which is more than acceptable for a printer of this type. The Stylus Photo 1400 isn’t slow, but it doesn’t have the blazing print speeds found in some of the Canon and HP ink-jets. Wilhelm Research, Stylus Photo 1400 prints should last for more than 80 years when stored under ultraviolet glass and out of direct sunlight. According to the print permanence experts at Print quality is important, but the Stylus Photo 1400 also produces images that will last, something that will appeal to both photographers and scrapbookers. And, while the 1400 really is designed as a photo printer, you can print very good quality text documents too, which makes it serviceable as a general-purpose printer. Photos on both glossy- and matte-finish papers showed bright, true-to-life colors, with excellent shadow detail, and resistance to both scratches and moisture. I printed test pages in Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Lightroom, and Apple’s iPhoto and Aperture, and the prints were all top notch. Print quality is Epson’s hallmark with the Stylus Photo line, and the 1400 doesn’t disappoint.
Printing without margins is as simple as choosing the Borderless option for the appropriate paper size in the Page Setup dialog box. Borderless printing is supported on a number of paper sizes, starting at 4 inches by 6 inches. In order to accommodate 13-inch wide paper, the 1400 measures more than two feet wide, but the input and output trays fold up to keep the printer’s footprint compact when it’s not in use. Has one top-loading paper tray and a front-loading slot for printing on discs.
