I have 2 printers: - Epson Pro 3880, which is causing all kinds of problems, like the Pro 3800 which I had before. Photo printing was excellent, but using this type of printer was a constant "pain"! Due to all kinds of small and sometimes serious problems. Relability was totally insufficient...

The maintenance tank T5820 on Epson Pro 3880 was full. I removed this tank and introduced a new tank. But this tank is refused! I purchased a second new tank but this is refused too! I did put some layers of tape on the right side of tank to ensure that a contact with the chip on the tank is...

On my Epson Pro 3880 I purchased a new T5820 Maintenance cartridge to replace an old one that is full and needs to being replaced. I removed the old cart and did put in the new one. But the new maintenance cartridge is refused. So I purchased another new maintenance cartridge, but the same...

I am intensively involved in trying for a whole series of days in a row, to get my 3880 on the Ethernet. Not withstanding a lot of help offered I am still totally unsuccessful! But for the first time in some years of using the 3880, the printer now starts to ring a bell in a series of bell...

I am trying to install my 3880 in the Ethernet. As far as I understand the 3880 can not be used through AirPrint. My problem is that when I go to >Applications >EpsonNet>EpsonNet config V4, my 3880 doesn't show up at all. What is the reason for this problem? Thanks for your help! Harry

I use my Epson Pro 3880 mainly for photo printing. From time to time it happens that the 3880 isn't used for weeks. Because for all other printing work I use a Canon MX 925. Can I avoid or reduce chances of possible ink problems on my 3880, by using the 3880 for all my printing needs? Even if...

I am trying to locate a complete set of original OEM chips for the cartridges in my Epson Pro 3880. It should be possible to reset these chips to full. As I understand that this is not possible in case the ink content in the cartrdge did reach less than 15% Who can help me? Thanks for reply Harry

There seems to be special software to execute an "Init Fill" on the 3880 Pro for cleaning the lines. Special software is needed to execute this procedure, but as far as I know this is only available for Windows, not for Mac? Does anybody know about a company that makes software available for an...

Further to my earlier thread regarding the "Error 150c" massage on the LCD on my 3880 Pro. This thread had been closed due to Spammer problems. This error message showed up almost every time I started the 3880 thus blocking the printer. Just by many many times restarting the 3880 I could still...

My 3880 is from 2016 and has only printed 644 pages (mostly photos). Driver version is 9.33 I have some problems that I can not solve: 1) when I start the printer I regularly get the message: "Service Call Error - Please contact to the repair center". Such service is extremely expensive over...

My present Epson Pro 3880 I purchased in May 2015. I have a "User manual" for the Epson Pro 3880 dated 2009, numbered: "NPD4043-00 EN" I would like to download the most recent manual and also the" Service Manual" for this printer. Who can advise me where to locate these manuals? Thanks for...

How can I remove ICC profiles listed twice, in the "Choose Profile Dialog" in Lightroom? I made a mistake and installed some ICC profiles twice and these now show up twice with "2" attached to the ICC profile name. Thanks for help! Harry

I am preparing the test of some sample packs of Canson and Hahnemühle papers on my Epson 3880. For the Canson Papers the valid "Media Types" are presented clearly in a document by Canson: "ICC profiles & Printer color calibration settings". So far I have not yet found the same information for...

I used for more than 4 years a Pro 3800 and now for 2 years a Pro 3880. I use Lyson inks to refill the original OEM Epson carts, (after removal of the contra valve that made refilling not possible - method jtoolman). I use my Pro 3880 rather infrequent with long periods of no printing. The way...

The papers that are being offered for photo printing have become very extensive and it has become complicated to understand "what to use when?". I like to understand the kind/types of papers are being offered, and what to use in specific printing situations. I looked this subject up in Internet...

What would be the best method for an intensive cleaning of the Mylar bag in an empty Epson 3880 cart in which Lyson ink has been used? I seems to be difficult (?) to remove all of the prior chemistry because of the internal valve area in the Epson Pro 3880. On the other hand after having...

When I plan to print borderless on my Pro 3880, I make (I think) a correct selection in menu "Print" and in "Page Set up" (borderless) and even check this setting in "Printer settings" where I get confirmation that the setting is okay. In "Image Settings" I check "Zoom to fill" and in "Layout"...

I am using for quite some time Lyson inks on my Epson Pro 3880. I am quite happy with these inks which I can buy in Germany. This avoids the hassle and charges of customs and often high international transportation costs when purchased in the USA. I just read that Cone has a sales office in...

I am trying to find a supplier of chips to replace the OEM Epson chips on the cartridges of the Pro 3880. (Not ARC chips!) I did run in to Chip Decoder boards for cartridges for Epson Pro 3880. What is the difference between Chips to replace original OEM Chips on carts, and these Chip Decoder...

I have been using the "QE 589 Chip Resetter", suitable for (a.o.) the Epson Pro 3880 printer. For a while I could reset all 9 cartridges of the 3880, but now suddenly this resetter doesn't reset anymore the (fully filled) LLK cartridge! I have no explanation for this. The strange thing is that I...
