      I felt this same way with my prior printer an Epson Artisan 725, in the United States this model was sold in both the color "black" and in the color "white". Selected the "white" version because, at the time, I was pairing it with a glossy white 24-inch iMac (smile...smile).

      I haven't experienced this myself nor have I printed on card stock for trading cards. All my prints are indoors. If left outside for some time I would imagine you would get a bleaching or fading effect as I had this happen with sublimation ink.

      Look at the manual and remove the duplex module on the back, as if you wanted to print using the rear feeder. Then you have access to the module and can remove paper jams if it happens. It's pretty easy really.

  • @fightingmink
    @fightingmink 4 місяці тому

    I purchased one on 12/22. After one year of very light use, the paper started jamming. First the photo paper from every cassette, then regular 8.5x11 plain paper jams. After a back and forth with Epson, they sent me a refurbished replacement. I just received it today and it doesn't print. I'm getting very impatient with Epson. Just remember to register your printer. If you don't, you only get one year of warranty. Registering it gives you 2 years. I also bought an additional 1-year replacement warranty. It looks like I will need it.

      Epson is absolutely HORRIBLE with customer service. It seems they don’t stand behind their products. I’ve now had two replacements for my ET 15,000 and both didn’t work right. They refused to refund me or send a different product if I paid the difference. Thankfully the store I bought from is still taking the 15,000 back regardless of it not being the original and being past the return date (bought 60 days ago).

    I received this as a Christmas present. I finally had time to watch a set up video and you are quite thorough. I feel more comfortable setting this up now, instead of waiting for my “Techie Grandson”. I would not destroy the box in case there’s something wrong with the printer, I ordered mine from B & H in NY. I never had an issue with them and the printer came very well packed. BTW, I get no money from B& H for stating this, I just believe in good value for the money and they had the better price. Thank you for your time.

      If you take good care of theses printers, they will last a long time before failing! My previous ET-2600 still works flawlessly after 5000 prints so far, and 5 years. Besides, you *can* find printheads for Epson printers, but they are almost as expensive as a new printer, even when bought directly in China so...

      No this is a one time ordeal, unless you travel with the machine to a different location, then I would recommend doing a print head alignment. I would recommend doing this after unboxing the printer then not worrying about it unless you have printing issues.

    • @Alanrpw
      @Alanrpw Місяць тому

      Ink lasts for *ages* in these printers. Printing the alignment patterns uses a very small amount of ink, you could do this hundreds and hundreds of times and be sick of it before you could see the ink go down because of it!
