    Third Party Epson R2000/P400 ink recommendations

    Thanks for the tips. It's gonna be a rabbit hole down and have started off with a set of inks from Aliexpress. Lastly, how would you deal with ink changes, using the same carts? Is there a need for complete flushing? Saw some tutorials on ink cart flushes and either pharmacist's solution (more...

    Third Party Epson R2000/P400 ink recommendations

    Thanks for the reply! Know that there are multiple variables but wanted to find the best inkset keeping paper options constant. To keep things simple, inclined to stick to pigment inks unless there is a compelling option. I see that PC offers icc profiles using RedRiverPaper. Comparing the...

I used to run this printer on cheap OEM carts but that's no longer available. With my OEM supplies dwindling I would need to shift to third party...

    R2000 - airlock issues with OEM carts

    Hi all, First and foremost, many thanks to the gurus here for their knowledge and wisdom. Have a R2000 (running OEM carts) with clogged Y and R channels. Cleared them with Piezoflush. Nozzle check looks all clear except for 1-2 heads, so I removed and reinserted the carts. This seems to have...

    Quick tutorial guide with Argyll CMS and Colormunki

    Now I am thinking of whether to upgrade to an i1 Pro 2 (just for the OBA functionality) - do you think that makes sense?

    Quick tutorial guide with Argyll CMS and Colormunki

    Spurred by the cheap OEM cartridges on eBay, I recently jumped onto the home printing bandwagon by purchasing an Epson R2000. One of the main criteria for me was to get accurate prints out of the box, and had spent the past week trying to figure out Argyll CMS profiling using a Colormunki...
