    Epson ET-8550 Firmware Update

    I just received a firmware update for my ET-8550 (USA). I couldn't find a changelog so I don't know what was done.

    Private Brand paper made in Germany

    No, this is Berkley-Jensen photo paper from BJ's warehouse club. The package just says Made in Germany.

    Private Brand paper made in Germany

    If a generic brand glossy photo paper says "Made in Germany" on the package, who is the most likely manufacturer?

    Epson ET8550 - What compatible inks and the quality of them ?

    The 8550 OEM inks are pretty cheap considering the amount that you get and how long it lasts, and their expiration dates are 3-4 years out.

    First time using ArgyllCMS

    Hi, I'm a first time user of Argyll trying to create an ICC profile. Charts created fine, but when I go to scan, Argyll doesn't recognize my i1Pro2. What am I doing wrong? Driver missing? UPDATE: I just noticed that The i1Pro is installed as an "X-Rite Device" in Device Manager instead of an...

    ET-8550 incoming

    After using this printer now for a little more than a week, I don't know if I could go back to a cartridge-based printer. Ink management is pretty much a thing of the past, and the print quality is beyond what I expected.

    LD Products ink?

    I just got an Epson ET-8550 and will be using OEM with it. I was inquiring about LD for my former Canon printer.

    ET-8550 incoming

    I got the 8550 set up and all I can say is WOW. I was using a Canon TS9020 (also a 6-ink printer) and I had the hardest time color matching what I saw on my monitor. That and the pain of constantly filling carts. This Epson matched my monitor right off the bat. Photos are stunning compared to...
