Hi Everyone,
New to these forums. Looking for some advice on a new inkjet printer to replace an aging Epson Stylus Photo R220. I need something with fairly specific abilities, namely I need it to print on very heavy paper of all different varieties, and I need it to print on envelopes.
I currently use the R220 to print greeting cards and invitations, and it does a pretty good job but I really have to force paper in there sometimes. It also jams up quite often on envelopes, and a lot of times it mangles the envelopes as well.
I'm also considering using a CIS so I would like to find a printer that is receptive to that type of thing.
Currently I'm leaning towards either the Epson R280 or R380. I don't want to spend too much because in my experience over the last few years of doing this, inkjet printers only last maybe 12-18 months before the decline in print quality is too much to use professionally.
Thanks for any advice!
