I have an Epson 1540SU scanner that seems to be on it's last legs and using it with silverfast to calibrate my 1280 w MediaStreet G6 ink is resulting in bizzare results all over the map. I'd like to use my mp830 but this is not a scanner supported in silverfast. What software exists to...

How often to you buy OEM cartridges? I crunched the numbers on my mp830, taking into account a replacement head after the 15th refill, and a set of 3 OEM cartridges for refilling. Even taking into account I bought a spare printer @ $150, and the inital printer was like $220, the end result was...

Yes. There are no shortage of people to buy products from Shenzhen, China. I can hit froogle. The problem buying from your company is you advertise random things in the wrong place, and don't have a website with prices. Since there is no website, I can not see what sort of support you offer.

I don't have an epson in the r200 class anymore so I can't pull that out for comparison. One of the reasons I upgraded to the ip5200/mp830 was rendering furigana, as in little characters on top of Japanese kanji. Before that it was a comparison between the ip4000 and r200, and for that...

The ip4000 arrangement was 320 30pl text, (2) 512 C & M, 256 Y BK. I believe it's 256 2pl and 256 5pl on Cyan and magenta. Same sort of deal, HP archival papers, the swellable polymer type you really notice how the black and yellow is layed out. This doesn't happen as much on the Epson, at...

I'll have to check into this issue of nozzle density. The fact is I don't know the distance the nozzles are a part from each other. I can see that the 1390 has 90 nozzles per tank, so a total of 540 if this info is correct. The ip4300 for example has 512 nozzles for text, and prints at...

Firstly these models are not in the US so I've not met any of them. The mp630 has a higher resolution scanner over the mp620, the same as the mp610. How it works is the ultimate measure, which I haven't seen. It should be noted the mp610 is rated as being faster at least on their website...

A couple of corrections 1) The Epson 1390 AFAIK doesn't support rolls. It has a banner length limitation that can be overcome with the right software, but it's not roughly 600mm. I have no personal experience with rolls. 2) Objectively an Epson given ideal circumstances, an external...

I've not met the ix4000. I don't think they offer this model in the states. The main complaints I've heard about it is a paper length limitation. It's the same as the desktop printers just under 60cm (594mm IIRC). This likely wouldn't actually be an issue with me as the largest I tend to...

Wow, I got a little wordy. I'll use fewer words. AUS $51 for a resetter? Shipped, to Malaysia? Be happy. If you're not happy, learn Chinese or deal with bad English from Shezhen, China. Want fancy ink (pigments)? Want a CISS? Don't do Canon. You want a general purpose printer...

Yes, this is where I think you were misunderstanding. If I run the printer without a profile, on MediaStreet g6 ink, geared for the 2200, I don't get a picture, well, not something that resembles a picture. If this was a case of minor differences, I could measure the relative difference...

I forget exactly how much I spent now. Somewhere in the $30-$32 range USD. $51AUD=$34USD prime rate. I'm told they are cheaper in the UK. meritline.com does international shipping from the US,but they do it via FedEx. That's the problem with US companies, they often are locked into one...

What part of Asia? Well if you're looking for CLI-8s rather than BCI-7e, odds are good it won't be an issue. This company also sells just the chips http://macroenter.trustpass.alibaba.com/product/103477057/Auto_Reset_Chips_Compatible_For_Canon_Ip4200_Ip4300_Ix4000.html I've not used them...

I'm sort of seeing your point. In the past I just used my Microtek 600Z, which was replaced by an Epson 1240. I made an adjustment curve based on a borrowed Q60 Kodak target. Then from there is was a simple matter of print, scan, evaluate, adjust the nobs a few points. Straight output...

This is a first series of prints, without the proper profile, to serve a base point for adjustments. It was an out of the box type test. Given I'm running essentially 2200 inks in the 1280, a base point is required. The scanner isn't calibrated, but does provide consistent results.

I'm currently playing with different profiles color adjustments in order to match OEM more closely, but this should give someone a reasonable idea what this pigment ink looks like in an Epson 1270/80/90/890. [source image]...

http://www.trymyphoto.com/ Canon just added free samples from their mp620/mp980 printers. The big negative on the mp620 is the fact that they shunk the size of their cartridges pumping up the cost per page for text to 3.5-4c/page from 3-3.5c from their older models. Same with the color...

$300 for an a3 printer and scanner is actually pretty reasonable. The starting price on a3+ (13x19) is pretty much $300 in it self. That's the Epson 1400 which isn't really a document printer. If you really need to print on 12 inch wide envelopes, and don't want to use labels, expect the...

4 printers? I "would" say this is overkill but given the price you could easily make up the difference selling the cartridges they came with. Minus 15 Celsius? I can't say I know the freezing point of ink, nor how well packed they are in styrofoam. I'm not sure how the PG/CL series...

I believe you can get a unit with an ADF feeder and scan legal via the sheet feeder. This should include the Canon mp530, mp830, mx700, mx850. Keep in mind there is a loss of quality when printing in duplex mode on the Canons. I prefer to manually duplex. I'll have to see if the Canons...
