Fort Kochi - 2016. How I wish I was here right now!

I'll try and post a pic of what I'm talking about. It's almost like it's not making enough passes. Not sure if that makes sense. I'm still figuring out all the print terms. So far it's only yes it prints, no it doesn't print hehe I'm beginning to realise that! Digital kinda made a lot of...

Thanks Glasseye. Hardware was my worry initially, but the prints are brilliant when I'm using the Epson Photo+ or Print Layout Software. This is especially true for photographs. So last night, I refreshed the drivers and added a photoshop plugin after the Epson Photo+ software decided it...

Thank you Glasseye! I've been printing nonstop since I got the L805 and loving every bit of it! Everything's great except that it seems to print perfectly only via the Epson software. This is strange. Printing via photoshop or any other software shows multiple issues like lines etc. on the...

Hehehe. I ended up ordering A4 in 280GSM, 270GSM Resin Coated and 4R in 280 GSM, all ultra glossy. Let's see how it goes. I've been printing like a mad man. But on regular paper for now. Thank you. I could not find anything higher than 280 though. Is PE the same as Resin Coated? Hehe :D I...

Hey guys, Do you have a favorite paper thickness for printing photographs? I have access to 180, 200 and 280gsm easily and was wondering if there are reason to choose one over the other. All the pictures I print will go on an album or framed. The printer is an Epson L805, if that makes a...

Haha looks like it! I placed an order this morning. Hopefully it'll be here in a couple of days. Amazon deliveries have slowed down cause of the pandemic. haha! As it stands, I have a lot of hobbies that raise a lot of eyebrows. This will just add to that :D

Oh ok. Thanks, it's the L805 then!! BTW, the L130 uses ink type T6641 for black, while the L805 uses T6731. They've mentioned that the T6641 is dye based. Not sure if dye-based is the same as dye or some marketing speak. Is it normal to be this excited to buy a printer? :D

Hey thanks a lot for your reply. I had a stupid question - If the L130 uses a mix of C & M for black, what is the black ink used for? Only text printing or something? I'm asking cause it has 4 ink tanks, one being black. Having said that I'm leaning towards the L805 too.

Thank you Stratman!

Hello guys! I'm a recent joinee here and was looking to buy a printer. I'm a hobby photographer and my primary use for this printer will be to make images that I can frame for my personal use. For all my commercial needs, I use a professional neighbourhood print shop. Being locked down at home...

Hello All! My name is Tassem. I've been a hobby photographer for over a decade and recently realised that I should now look at printing my photos at home. Came across this beautiful forum while researching on the printers that interest me. Happy to be part of this forum and hope I can...
