One of the first generation printers with the possibility of stand alone printing. A small preview screen was bought as an expensive extra.

Hi Lucas28, what is the vintage of this Epson printer? I remember that years ago the "breadbox" design was popular. Canon i865/965, HP DJ 930, Lexmark Z51, and others also used this design. The successor to the Canon i865 was the iP4000 with a regular box design. The iP4000 might have started a new design trend.

My favourite printer is the Canon iP5200, but I think a picture of this printer would be boring, a picture of my i965 might be better, so I will try to see if I can get a good picture of that printer.

Who is/are the judge(s)?

What currency do we use for bribes?

Do they accept Paypal?

Three questions is enough for now, more to come - film at eleven!

Hi Peter, The white printer is the Epson Photo 895. It was introduced in2001 and one year later replaced by the less popular Photo 915. The cover of the original printer was damaged and I replaced it with the cover of a 915.

The Canon i865 was a nice design indeed, from 2003? Canon also had the i250, in a funny 'toaster' design. My father owned one.
This is a photo of my father and my wife. It was taken on the day I showed him how to print photos. On the table is a A4 sheet with 4 photos.

Interesting! Your father bears an uncanny resemblance to the Canadian actor Christopher Plumber.

Christopher Plumber? Not really, but thanks for the compliment.

BTW, is no one else uploading photos? In this way I win the contest.
Come on, guys, only 38 days left. Show us your printer, your CIS, your ink collection or your daughter :pop

Come on guys, I know there are a ton of great pics out there waiting to be uploaded and submitted!

Some suggestions:

  1. Beauty pics of your favorite printer
  2. Shots of your refill setup
  3. Images of your printer tear-down
  4. Action pics of you refilling a cartridge
  5. Photos of the ink mess you made (right before your spouse yelled at you) ;)
