    Swapping ET/L series inks to another inks - any special technique?

    Thank you for your reply, you are really helpful on all the questions I have and I am grateful for that. The air in the dampers is something I knew (for like 2-3 years, preivously I filled them lik 80% and wondered why I got issues :D), but to be honest I never knew the reason why they should be...

    Swapping ET/L series inks to another inks - any special technique?

    Hello guys, It is me again. I just received the 106 CMYK and LC LM T54C inks and I plan to put them in my Epson L1800 which is currently using the 673 inks. I was wondering what will be the most "professional" way to do it? I was thinking just to suck out the inks from the tanks and the inks...

    Somebody who can help me to print something in 3D ?

    Hey, Out of curiosity I was even more puzzled when I saw you are actually using it for the colormunki. Because I also have one, what is the purpose of the rail (maybe using it with Agryll). Sadly so far I've only used it with the standard ccstudio / colormunki software, because when I first...

    Bizarre ink 673 ink performance on L850 and L1800

    Thank you, your reply had a soothing effect, I was getting overwhelmed but comparing fade tests and wondering what will be the best. I will just go 106CMYK and T54C LM LC like I intended to :) By the way - I see you still have your L805 - in the forum I think I saw that you use/used pigment...

    Bizarre ink 673 ink performance on L850 and L1800

    Thank you, I will probably go full Printfab for B&W image on the L1800. Thank you again for your so detailed response. L1800 does not provide this ABW but for this I will go Printfab because I already own the software anyway. Yes, I remember making profiles like for like a month for the...

    Bizarre ink 673 ink performance on L850 and L1800

    Hello, Thank you - I keep close track on your ink tests, they are of much help, especially on the 106 114 t54c inks, maybe I will just change for the 106 t54c because of the longevity, since you said there will be not much improvement visually or on the L values. As for the papers I usually...

    Bizarre ink 673 ink performance on L850 and L1800

    Thank you for your response. Actually for each patch I measured it 5 times and wrote the middle values for each L*a*b. Actually after the ink settled for more than a day I can barely see differences in the black patches - maybe it is more obvious when freshly printed, which leads me to believe...

    Bizarre ink 673 ink performance on L850 and L1800

    Hello and thank you for posting this. This is a really interesting article, thank you - that explains the LM LC mixing I wonder if they also did some trick for the K and this is why it appears a different shade and performs differently (because in the article I did not see any comment about K...

    Bizarre ink 673 ink performance on L850 and L1800

    Hello again, Just measured the test patches for black after 11 hours, on matte paper the difference is not so big but on the glossy it is visible: Matte paper L*a*b* for L1800/L850 15,6 1,3 -3,6/16,2 1,3 -3,8 Premium glossy paper L*a*b* for L1800/L850 2,9 2,2 -4,2/3 2,9 -3,7 Do you...

    Bizarre ink 673 ink performance on L850 and L1800

    Thank you, I will print both matte and glossy icc profile charts and tomorrow morning measure the lab values but visibly the black is much leaker on the L1800. I do not now if the inks are mixed, I am just puzzled and trying to wrap my head around this - first thing that came to mind is either...

    Bizarre ink 673 ink performance on L850 and L1800

    Hello again, Been around for quite some time wondering if to change the L1800 original 673 inks to the T54C inks. Because I nearly depleted the T673 inks in the printer I now decided to go for it and order the T54C inks but just before that I noticed something bizarre. Although the L1800 and...

    My second Epson SC-P900 is kaputt...

    This is sad to hear, I was / and still am following your journey with the resetter/chips. There is no way this was due to them , right?

    Already owned L1800 (change inks in it) or sell it and buy L8180 (8550)

    Hello again, Thank you for your time and your detailed responses and please excuse me if I was not clear with my posts - I was just curious if you maybe still had the L1800 and compared it directly to the L8180. For now I decided to keep the L1800 and put the SL-D500 inks in it and invest the...

    Already owned L1800 (change inks in it) or sell it and buy L8180 (8550)

    This is a valid point indeed, if I did not have already the L1800 I would have bought the 8180/8550 right away but since I am no stranger to 3rd party or changing inks in printers (I use Inktec sublinova inks in the L1300 I have) I do not mind experimenting with different inks as well as they...

    epson wf3520 print head issue

    Hey, Not really familiar with the issue but checked google and most of the time the 0xf1 is said to be a paper jam so maybe check for jammed paper (I assumed you already did but still) and probably might be related to the paper jam senssor/s? I saw also youtube videos on how to fix such errors...

    Hello, Thank you for participating in the topic, did you do any tests with different inks in the L1800 or similar model or you are just happy with the printing results from the 8180? :) Hello, I can't express my gratitude for taking part in the discussion - I appreciate the time you spent...

    Epson wf3520 127xl ink cartridges refill

    Hello, The circle with the dot in the middle is rubber and removable and you can pour the ink there. Then remove it and when you peel the yellow tape it will let the air inside the cartridge escape through the hole where the yellow sticker was and prime the chambers inside the cartridge. If...

    Hello, I've read a lot of topics regarding ink changing and the current most durable inks but wanted to make sure I got everything right before I do something. Thanks to Ink stained Fingers and his really useful posts I was left with the impression that currently there are 3 best types of ink I...
