 Controls/Buttons/Dials (7.00)As with most pro photo printers, the Epson R2400 has only the very simplest of controls, as most of the printing controls are conducted through the software. The printer features just four buttons. The power button’s function is obvious, and it sits at the bottom of the stack of four buttons. Above sits the roll paper button, which allows for feeding and positioning of the paper. It also prints a cutting guideline. The inks button, represented by a droplet icon, positions the ink carriage in line with the opening to allow for removal and installation of cartridges. Holding this button for three seconds sets the print head-cleaning cycle in motion. The top button is the regular paper feed button, represented by a paper sheet and a trash can icon. This can load or eject paper, clear paper errors, and cancel print jobs.

The R2400 has no on-unit menus. All access is through printer software.
Size / Footprint (3.04)
The R2400 is a nicely sized pro photo printer, considering it can output 13" x 19" prints. It can comfortably sit on a large desk, but it still takes up a good chunk of real estate. We measure a printer with all of its trays attached and opened to their maximum extension (24.2" wide x 29" deep x 18" high), which gives a better representation of the desk space needed than the out-of-the-box size (24.2" wide x 12.6" deep x 9.1" high). This printer is slightly smaller than the Canon Pro9000, but it weighs 6 pounds more, thus its slightly lower score.
