    Epson L800 Experience

    Just checking in a year later. I should mention that I also print with an Epson 9800 and an HP Z3200. This is a SUPERB little printer. I've printed several hundred images with this device and the only reason my prints don't look great is ME. Easily fixed by diligent application of Photoshop...

    I started with borderless checked and an 8.5 X 11 media size selected. Then, I changed the size to 14"

    Hey, Taksmon! That worked! Thanks a bunch. It looks like I have to make the user defined size 8.5 X 14.1 The last millimeter (the trailing edge of the print) didn't print. It also looks like I can print borderless any length I want, up to 44". YAY! Thanks again.

    If I select "legal", which is 8.5 X14 inches, the "borderless" option disappears. So you suggest I create a user defined size equal to 8.5 X 14?

    Epson L800 Experience

    I must say, I love this little printer. It's a great companion to my 9800. Glossy, borderless 8 1/2 X 11 prints look superb. My only regret so far is that it won't print borderless on North American "legal" size: 8 1/2 X 14.

    Is there a service manual for the L800 series or the P50 available?

    Thanks for the exploded diagram. Looks very much like my L805. I intend on doing mostly borderless, hence my concern with a waste tank. I see a checkbox for Status Monitor 3 in the Utilities tab. I'll try it. This is my first experience with a dye printer. WOW! Superb saturation and D-Max.

    Thanks for that. I'll print a couple of test images and leave them out in the sunlight. (what little sunlight there is here in Western Canada in winter) :) Another question, if I might. I'd like to install a waste ink bottle. It looks easy on this printer because there's a little door for...

    Epson L800 Experience

    Received and installed my L805 printer yesterday, direct from Taiwan to Western Canada in about three weeks. Wow! Dye inks are super saturated. Great little unit. Very happy so far. If I don't have fading problems, I won't convert to pigments.

    Epson L800 Experience

    Why are pigment inks not a good idea for that printer? Do you have experience with this? I am aware that pigment inks have a reputation for clogging. This is not my experience with my Epson 9800. I found two videos (in Portugese) that show some interesting details, at least for me. This...

    This is a very interesting little printer. Anyone have any experience running pigment inks on it? That's probably what I'd do.

    Epson 1430 firmware versions

    New here, long time Epson user, including several CIS systems. Currently running a 9800 with pigment inks and refillable carts. Considering purchasing an Epson 1430 running the same brand pigment inks. There are advantages for me to standardize both ink and media across the two printers. I'm...
