About this deal

This also beats Canon’s G650 and G7050 A4 ink-tank printers and beats the speeds achieved by Epson’s four-colour ET-2750. My advice would be to play around with all three modes, and see if you can tell any appreciable difference in your prints. There was a set of very small graphics indicating what you need to do to set up the straight path, but my poor eyesight really couldn’t discern what I was supposed to do, now that I had the paper feed unit removed.

colour touchscreen tilts up for easy access and below this you can clearly see the six ink reservoirs. People like bright colors because they attract attention and generally look how we remember things looking.

not sure where I read it, may have been the Keith Cooper review, that standard is absolutely fine with very little discernable improvement by using highest setting.

from Epson Japan, where I was able to tell how exactly to set the mechanism so that it would accept paper, which turns out to be quite simple. The bottles are keyed to their specific color and have some sort of valve in the stem to prevent spills, and the tanks are labelled clearly. Pigment printers do have a slight advantage with fine art and matte media types, and viewers were a bit more discerning, picking the pigment printers as generally better than those on the ET-8500. For Velvet Fine Art only one setting is available ("Standard") which appears to be the same resolution as "High" for matte or glossy papers but is not bidirectional.The pigment black is slightly warm whilst the dye black is not such a good black, in spectral response terms. Having two blacks means there’s no compromise in quality when you switch between printing photos and words. We will ask you to share some information about your reason for contacting Epson Support and guide you through contacting us.

It’s more competitive at a smaller scale, though, with six 6x4in photos printing in 8mins 47secs, only two seconds behind the Pixma PRO-200. The option only works when the printer is connected via a USB connection, and you have to jump through a few hoops in the driver to turn it on, although you can save the settings as a preset. There are two front input trays; the first holds 20 sheets of 5" x 7" photo paper, while the second holds 100 sheets of plain or A4 paper. Whilst every effort has been made to ensure that the above information is correct at the time of publication, Printerland will not be held responsible for the content of any third-party software suggested on this site and usage of any such software is at the users own risk. It's critical to use the correct printer driver and paper profiles, though, especially when printing colorful images or photos with expansive dynamic range.We found that while printing single-sided pages of black and white text was fast, printing on both sides of the page slowed things right down. However, if I wanted to get into the weeds, the skin tone is slightly too warm, overly saturated and a bit bright relative to the original file.
