I'm not familiar with the options and performance of the TM255 vs. the TC-21 printer and which refill options are available. The TC-21 comes with a sheet feeder for A4 and A3 paper which might be of interest for some users. It should be possible to correct color tints via the color adjustments...

Most of the discussion of longevity of dye vs. pigment inks omits the significant role of the paper types used for all that testing. I extracted information from the linked test reports how strong the paper impact actually is - this with OEM material only...

Canon printheads wear - they are consumables, Epson published a description what is happening inside a thermal printhead

Could you post an example that the QR codes on Epson guine and 3rd party inks of the same type are actually identical - just the mfg-date may vary if at all.

all Epson bottles carry a QR-code on the backside, sometimes hidden under a folded and printed paper sheet taped over it with legal info in several languages. This may vary by market region.

I galnced through your detailed guide to use X-Rite and ArgyllCMS together which I like very much. There is just a small correction necessary about in the middle of the posting (depending on your version of the i1Pro i1Profiler will export in only M0 (UV-cut): The M0 mode uses the UV light of...

It's now about a year ago that I got a replacement for my old Epson Pro 7600 24 inch printer which I dumped due to some age related problems after about 20 years of operation. I tested both the Canon TC-20 and the Epson T3100 and T3100 which are quite similar in functionality - 24" roll...

I'm at this time assuming that there is no ink in the tubing and dampers, a new ink charge command would fix that via the WICReset utility - under Windows. I don't know if that utility would be available for Mac systems. WICReset offers you several other cleaning commands below the ink charge...

For how long was the printer idling ? It appears to me that the ink was running back through the ink tubes and pulled air into the dampers. It is possible to remove the tubes from the dampers, those cartridge like inserts in the printhead carriage, there should be some small amount of ink in...
