    Do we need to replace the chip each time the ink runs out? or is the trick to just refill the ink in the refillable cartridges to keep using the same chip? I'm asking for a 7820.

    Is it necessary to switch to those cartridges? What if I were to use the ones that came with the printer would I still be able to print on t shirts ?

    • @LeeLeesCraft
      @LeeLeesCraft  Місяць тому

      No, you can't use the ink that comes with the printer to print on T-shirts. The ink that comes with the printer is regular ink and won't work for printing on T-shirts. To successfully print on fabric, you'll need to switch to sublimation ink or another type of fabric-compatible ink. Using the standard cartridges won't give you the results you're looking for on T-shirts.

    When you use sublimation ink does it save you money like that? With the refillable cartridge probably save you money right?

    • @LeeLeesCraft
      @LeeLeesCraft  Місяць тому

      Great question! Using refillable cartridges typically does save money in the long run, especially when using sublimation ink. However, with the Epson WF7820, it's not always as straightforward. Each time you need to refill the cartridge, you'll also have to purchase new toner to get the chip, which can add to the cost. So while refillable cartridges generally save you money, with this particular printer, the savings might not be as significant due to the extra expense of replacing the chip.

    @bekx07 3 роки тому +1

    I have converted. My first time doing this. I guess I chose the wrong printer since there isn’t a lot of videos out there and most say you cannot use this model. But the initialization was complete and I’m using asub paper but it won’t print anything. Help! I’m wasting print outs and “ink” since these chips only work until the printer estimates the ink should be gone. Also, any idea on when they 3rd party cartridges might be available to get around this work around?

    • @LeeLeesCraft

      If you still have the original Epson cartridges, take the chips off the refillable cartridges and place them back on the original ink. See if the printer will print with the original ink.

  • @valariemulvihill5980
    @valariemulvihill5980 3 роки тому +1

    Seeing as this is not an auto reset chip....how cost effective is it? I read in one of your comments that you estimated the cost at 78 cents. How did you come to that price? Approximately how many pages can you print per cartridge before having to buy new epson cartridge (for the chip)? Looks like new cartridges are $60 - $70.

    • @LeeLeesCraft
      @LeeLeesCraft  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Valarie, i got about 90 prints out of my first fill. So i calculated the price of the new set $70 divided by the 90 prints = $0.78. However, that definitely varies depending on the size prints that you are printing out. I mainly print mugs and tumblers. if you are printing t shirts and large hd panels then the amount of prints will be a lot less. The printer at this point without the auto reset chip is not very cost effective. That is why its very important to keep track of the number of prints and add the cost to your items.

  • @peajayjones8636

    I'm thinking of getting a Epson 7820 do you think I should get the warranty with it? I think I read somewhere that if printer is converted to sub and messes up they warranty will not be honored. Also, should I use the Epson ink until empty before pulling the chips out? Just seems wasteful to not use them.

    • @talnyshernandez4884
      @talnyshernandez4884 3 роки тому +1

      Hi Peajay, no you can’t use the Epson ink. If you use the Epson ink the chip will register as empty and you won’t be able to use it. This is what consumer law says about using aftermarket ink, “Consumer law states that a manufacturer's warranty cannot be voided due to using aftermarket consumables (ink cartridges or toner). It is the responsibility of the printer manufacturer to prove that an the compatible printer cartridge or toner caused the damage before refusing warranty repair”. So if you normally get warranties then I would get it. Of course this isn’t legal advise. Just what I would do.

      @@LeeLeesCraft No. I saw someone's video who has it and said it prints very slow. She said it takes forever. I got the Epson Eco 2760 and I have not converted it to sublimate. It's ok. I do like how easy it is to add the ink. That was the other reason for getting the eco. I don't have time for buying extra to convert the 7820, swapping out chips and extra cartridges. That adds up. I am using the original ink up first in 2760 if I keep it for sublimation. I may buy the Epson Eco 15000 for Sublimation and large printing and keep the 2760 for regular printing. Right now the 15000 is not in my budget.

      how do you prime them? and what do they mean by "chips from original cartages will not reset. You will have to buy original epson ink every time it reads low and replace the chips again" ?? Is that referring to if I choose to turn it back to a regular printer?

    • @LeeLeesCraft
      @LeeLeesCraft  3 роки тому +3

      Hi Alejandra, to prime the inks once you fill them with the sublimation ink you place the syringe to the ink cartridge and press up to pull out any air that might be inside the cartridge. You repeat that process a couple of times on each ink. You are correct, you will need to buy original epson inks every time it reads low and replace the chips again. Hopefully kits will soon be release that that won't continue to be the case.

    • @LeeLeesCraft
      @LeeLeesCraft  3 роки тому +2

      You can switch the cartridges to the sublimation ink. However, you will need to do several print head cleanings to flush out the old ink. That will use up your first set of sublimation ink reasonably quickly and the chip. The bad thing about this printer, for now, is the need to purchase new Epson ink cartridges every time the printer says empty.

    • @LeeLeesCraft
      @LeeLeesCraft  3 роки тому +2

      Vanessa, yes, you can use the 802xl cartridge with pigment ink. Just keep in mind until a converter kit or chipless drivers comes out for that printer you will need a new set of Epson Ink to remove the chips from every time the cartridge is empty.

      I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with your printer. It can be frustrating when things don't work as expected, especially after following all the steps. Sometimes, even small details can make a big difference. Double-check that your printer recognizes the sublimation ink cartridges and that the ink is properly primed. Also, ensure you've selected the correct print settings for sublimation in your printer software. If everything seems right and it’s still not working, feel free to share more details, and I'll do my best to help you troubleshoot! 😊
