nope but you say the WF-7430 is can be made chipless ? Go for it and use refillable 802/812 carts or CISS and use chipless firmware. I suggest to use Inktec or InkOwl or go for precisioncolors.com pigment ink.

Concerning stiffer and thicker medium: my Epson WF-7840 can do this so thicker paper does not need to make a sharp U-turn and can be fed from the back rear:

You might be surprised how good aftermarket ink is. Have a look at my Epson WF-7840 printer (which uses the 405/405XL cartridges, the EU-version of the 802/802XL cartridges in the US). I am using aftermarket pigment ink from Inktec formulated for HP pigment printer (I bought this type of ink...

Today I installed a set of refillable Epson 405/405XL cartridges in my Epson WF-7540 printer to see how they perform and also if my Inktec HP H5088 pigment ink (Formulated for HP printers, using bubbjet technologie and therefore can be used in both Canon, HP, Brother and Epson pigment ink...

Many years ago during the days of the Epson 1400 I speculated that Epson could actually skip the LM and LC inks in favour of a gray and matte black ink, because the variable droplet technology of Epson (up to 1.5 pl small) made it visually possible to omit the light colours without any visual...

Epson WF-7310 DTWF is relatively cheap (about €180) and can handle A3+. User replaceable waste ink tank and can use refillable cartridges or use the original chip on refillable cartridges + resetter. At the end of the day I would suggest to take out the carts with sublimation ink and put in...

Clear ink base formula: propylene glycol 5 gram alcohol 96% (denaturated) 30 gram isopropanol 15 gram distillled water up to 100 gram For making LM/LC/LG: 30 parts of M/C/G mixed with 70 parts of CIB (Clear Ink Base) Actually all the colours of the CLI-42 are reformulated (probably using...

Suggestion for you: for the CLI-42 gray and photo gray I would suggest to use GI-53 gray ink in bottles (same fade resistance as the CLI-42 Chromalife 100+ inks). You can dilute the GI-53 ink with 2 parts of clear ink base to make the photo gray ink version (about 30-33% GI-53 gray with 70-67%...

CLI-42 OEM ink is newer generation ink compared to the CLI-8 OEM, with supposedly an even better fade resistance compared to the older CLI-8 inks.

I had to replace my duplex A3+ desktop office printer (Epson WF-7525) and was looking at the ecotank printers.....but for the price difference between the Epson ET-16600 and the similar WF-7840 wa a huge price difference of 3.5x times. Exactly the same specification but the difference is the...

I found my Epson XP-15000 produces excellent monochrome output (even using my own brewed ink mix using 15% PK with clear ink base to produce the grey ink). But is the print on the ET-8550 done using the ABW-mode ?

I cannot compare it to an ET-8550, because I do not have it, but did you choose the highest printing quality ? Because it does not have light inks, the lighter colours have to be printed using smaller droplets and when the printing quality is mediocre it could be you can seem some coarser dot...

Congrats it is a wonderful printer and very cheap to print with 👍

Did you define your subnetmask and standard gateway address in the printer ? If not you cannot access internet. Use the standard gateway address of your internet modem/router.

The Epson ET-8550 prints beatifully and even darker blacks than the Epson P700 and printing costs are just a fraction of the Epson P700 due to the built-in CISS system using ink cheap ink bottles instead of expensive cartridges. Epson Claria HD dye ink is very fade resistant and durable. I had 2...

I discovered the scanner is perfectly calibrated, unlike my previous Epson WF-7525, which produces scan with a colour cast. It matches visually exactly like I can see under normal viewing condition in bright light. Here a scan of a printed page from my Epson SC-P800 (upper part) and Epson...

So finally installed the Epson WF-7840 DTWF printer. Refillables are under way now and hopefully I can see how these carts are functioning and can be reset with my XP-15000 resetter.

The paper surface of old photographic paper is totally unfit to absorb printer ink of any kind. It will drop off like oil droplets on a teflon coated frying pan. I tried it with some old Ilford paper and it was terrible.

I suspect the firmware has some nifty algorithm for you to choose: you print alot, ok I am going to limit intermittent cleaning cycles. You print only sporadically, let's have some heavy and time consuming cleaning cycles to drain the cartridges and fill up the waste ink sponges. In the end the...

I sent an email to his email address and see if I get some response from him.
