    New Monitor - Any experience with Dell UP2720Q 4K for editing?

    When I did my research I went with the much cheaper U2720Q (notice it's missing a Q) which has %95 DCI vs the %98 DCI of the UP2720Q. It doesn't have %99 adobergb like the UP version (it's %89) but it still has more color than the typical srgb only monitor. FWIW I don't notice a color shift...

    Inkjet colors fade because of drying?

    I did the same inkjet internet art print on the same 20lbs multiuse paper about 2 days apart, and noticed that the 2 day old print's colors look a little less vibrant than the new print. I also put the 2 day old print on the wall in a somewhat dim room. Is the reason why the old print's colors...

    Supertank printers with replaceable ink absorbers?

    In the end, I got an Epson ET-7750 from the clearance center ~$450 and so far so good. It even came with an extra maintenance tank. Thanks for the advice! I ended up figuring out that same trick you mentioned websnail. I find it kind of weird they don't sell the L1800 in the USA. I wonder...

    Supertank printers with replaceable ink absorbers?

    Does anyone know of a supertank style printer that has a replaceable ink absorber pad? The pad seems so cheap and basic, but most printers just stop working in their software once it fills up and make it hard to replace and near impossible to reset their internal counters. Like this epson...
