Amazon has the Epson Stylus Photo 1280 on sale with both a coupon code and a mail-in rebate. You can save 5% off the starting price of $379.99 by using the coupon code SAVEPSNEVENT and then you can use the $100 rebate which is mentioned on the page. After both discounts the price comes down to $261, which is not bad considering it would probably normally cost you around $400 in an office superstore.

We won’t lie to you though - this is an old printer. At one time the 1280 was one of the best photo machines you could get and was very unique because it featured a color cartridge with five colors back before really anyone was doing that. But these days every new printer that comes out features tons of colors, so this one no longer has as much of an edge over the competition as it once did. So, don’t expect any technology that is going to blow you away. At the same time, though, this is a large format printer which can print photos at up to 13×19, something that is not easy to find. Based on this sale, it seems like they might be phasing this printer out, so anyone who is interested in more than just 8×10s should consider this deal.

The 5% off coupon is good until 3/13.
