Anyone?? 😕

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help? Im looking for a cheap (ish ) pigment ink printer, I’ll be using it to print decoupage sheets so im not looking for the best photo quality images just ink that doesn’t smear/run when dampened. A3 compatible would be a bonus but not essential. Also I have...

Managed to pick up a Lexmark c746 laser printer yesterday for £40 have no idea if that was a good price or not but after sorting constant “paper jam” alerts it’s doing the job :thumbsup

I’m wondering if anyone has any experience of either of these printers? HP P2055d Lexmark C746DN I think they’re old models? I’m looking at second hand ones but would like to know if they accept card like they say they do? The card I’m hoping to use will be either Strathmore Bristol smooth or...

I think I’ve tried every option now and just can’t get it to not smear, think I’m just going to have to get a laser printer. I’m looking at a couple of second hand ones so maybe I’ll ask over in the laser dept :\ Thanks for everyone’s suggestions

This is what they look like after colouring

Thanks for your reply again. Ive attached some photos, on the plain/copy paper and the rough watercolour paper it’s ok but not on the smooth? That would be really kind of you to do some tests for me, I’ve also attached the image I’ve been using.

Which printer do you have?

Thanks for the replies, all the images are black and white (as far as I’m aware) they look that way. Ive tried setting normal paper but it still smears. I don’t know anything about printers but got the ts9550 as I wanted to be able to print 12”x12” patterned card, this printer is known for being...

Hi, I own a canon pixma ts9550 and am desperately needing some help/advice. I want to print images to colour in (like a colouring book) using watercolour pens. I would like to print on either smooth watercolour paper or Bristol card. The issue I’m having is that once I start colouring the ink is...
