As much as Epson is using the same printhead across a wide range of printers they'll use as well the same scanning hardware across a similar range of printers. It would be just a matter of some tests - printing the patch file on several different printers by different users and comparing the...

You may check the storage conditions - temperature and humidity - you are keeping your papers in. Photo papers with a carton type backside are more prone to curling than papers with a plastic back side like the HP one.

Please post a nozzle check print. Did you do any cleaning action already - eg.g. a piece of kitchen paper underneath the nozzle plate ? Since when are you using the printer ? Do you still have some warranty - extended warranty ?

Another problem can be air bubbles in ink tubes of printers with an ink supply system with tubes .

I'm not familiar with the ink supply of the P3880 in detail, but most cartridges, as well Dampers, have a spring loaded valve at the ink outlet, and the filter is located pretty close above the valve. With cartridges with an opaque body it is not really possible to look inside. A blocked filter...

I remember seeing a similar problem on a P400 printer -frequent and pretty persistent clogs. It turned out that the filter in the cartridge - a small mesh wire filter - was clogged - almost - and causing effects like nozzle clogs. Changing the cartridge directly fixed the problem and the ink...

Epson is doing something very similar - printheads of lots of printers are coded - with a kind of serial number which carries individual technical parameters which are coded with a barcode, and such barcode label is attached to the printhead. When replacing such printhead you need to enter this...

I'm not clear why you are trying to print with the absolute colorimetric rendering intent; you are not doing any proof/soft proof type action under a specific environmental light condition to emulate a target paper on a proof paper. Since I'mnot using ArgyllCMS I cannot comment any further on...

Epson does something like a 'nozzle verification technology' https://blog.flextg.com/what-is-nozzle-verification-technology/ The user manual of my ET-3100X is referring to it, but I don't know if I can even see whether it's working. Detecting individual nozzles not working is the easy part, but...

It's just impossible to make general statements ; you have to consider a particular ink type on a particular paper in a particular environment which let the inks fade faster or slower than other inks. I did various tests which always was a kind of comparison with an Epson 106 ink type, and this...

The service/maintenance manual may give more insight, if and how the overspray pad could be replaced and a reset of a counter for that pad could be done.

Yes - since the ET-7750 comes with a user replaceable waste ink bin, and a new waste ink box comes with a new chip. That's the same with the ET-8550 not giving access to the waste ink status via WICReset. You should have access to the waste ink status via the printer screen menu - the...

There is already a new version 1.11 available, the software does not appear to be stable yet.

I wish everybody on this forum a Happy New Year - and perfect prints with all your profiles............

I'll let you know as soon as I'll decide between an Epson or Canon 24 inch printer; but that will take a while

I'm now running the Epson T3100X since a year, prints are very good and I didn't encounter any problems so far; I used about 2 - 3 130 ml refills varying by color. I did not encounter problems or functional issues beyond those which got discussed in this thread before. And I have an answer to...

Please print a nozzle check, scan it and post the image here

@beebill I'm glad you found that difference with the prints , that's one of several hidden traps when doing profiling - but isn't that part of the fun with profiling ?

It is the job of a profile to compensate ink variations and to get the print output closer together as much as different gamuts would allow. It was a promise by precisioncolors that the inks are as close as possible to the OEM inks so that a different profile would not be needed. If this is the...
