Thank you! It was really really helpful. I was undecided between the EpsonET3850 and the 4850 and for a few pounds difference (in the UK) I am going for the latter, with the touchscreen, you made me think about that. Thanks again.

Great!

Whats your thoughts on the epson ecotank 4810? I can't find alot of reviews on it. Also, why is the 3850 more than the 4810? I will be printing reciepes, photos and letters basically.

I was looking for a review which talked about the proprietary nature of the ink cartridges...HP currently is requiring only HP print cartridges (which are more expensive ) and will disable the print function if you try to use it. The software has an option to turn it off but that no longer appears to work....as in my current HP printer which won't recognize anything but HP cartridges.

Very helpful, please would you talk about ink refilling on different printer models and the

I just want to write a book...and will need to print it out....plus some very low-level use around tax time. :) Thanks for this video! All I'm looking for is a chromebook-compatible black and white laser printer. Any suggestions?

HP has an excellent lineup of LaserJet printers, you can use the links in my description that I'll take it to Amazon and you can find some really good HP LaserJet printers. And your case I wouldn't spend more than $300 since you're rarely using the printer.

Planning on printing heavy cardstock (oversize postcards) to send via regular mail. I know I want some sort of tank printer but there is almost NO information on how well the different printers handle cardstock. My top features are that it can handle cardstock (not photo paper) then duplexing and I don't care after that - I don't need fax or scanner or anything else. Any advice?

I have an old HP 4700 Color LaserJet Printer that does everything I need. It prints letter and legal size paper from 20# to heavy card stock. It prints double sided and I use it for printing books with color photos. I am now having problems with it, as it has around 500k copies on it and I need to get another printer. What do you suggest that I can use to print books with quality color photos, as well as heavy card stock?

The M283 is a great option. It should hold up like your older HP LaserJet pretty much all of the LaserJet printers you can use aftermarket toner on. You'll save so much by going that route.

Question about the ecotanks: what about the waste tank? I heard that was the new "scam" because you can't just change it, you need to reset a thing in the printer and there is no software to do that?

@BestPrinters

Ай бұрын

It depends on what model the higher models do have a waist tank that you can change out.

OEM vs Remanufactured...what I read was that companies that make the remanufacured ink don't have access to the "same" materials that OEM does. Do you have insight to this?

Remanufactured ink is essentially the same as oem, similar quality similar results. What OEM sells you is the brand name. I have found there is almost no difference especially with tank printers.

​@@BestPrintersIf your using a Brother brand, I've noticed a big difference. Since I use it mostly for documents, I can live with it.

If you print quite a bit but may have lapses of weeks in between printing, stay away from the tank printers. You will constantly be buying his cleaning kit because the ink dries up way too often. I’m going to a laser printer. With decent color laser jets now down under $500, it’s a no brainer for my situation. I regret buying the Eco Tank and figured I’d share my experience in case others have similar printing habits.

Hi Philip, unfortunately Epson does not support Linux at this time. If you would like to find a printer that is compatible with linux I will try another search engine that will tell you which printers are compatible.

U skipped two major points while considering to buy a printer. 1. Quality of Ink (dye based, pigment based) some model of epson printer support Pigment BK , and rest color are dye CYAN, MAGENTA, YELLOW - Epson Ecotank L14150 model. Hybrid Ink system 2. Number of nozzles in Print head. Canon printer support maximum no of nozzle i.e. 4352 in Maxify printer compared to Epson Ecotank L15160 with only 3200 nozzles . I expect you to explain more while buying Printer, that nobody talks even company too in their model Brochure. Also I would like you to explain Emulation features that support PDL (Printer Description language), how is it effective in printing speed process. PCL, Postscript , ESC/P-R Raster

I very much appreciate your comment, however for the average consumer adding this info can be a bit overwhelming.

The lower the price, the higher chance it will break or the liquid inks are expensive and rather small. I do have personal beef with HP, a company that makes both commercial and residential products will often put some kind of its residential technology aspect into its commercial machine which is never a good thing.

Hey, I wouldnt spend over $250, you can get by with an Hp Envy model such as this one, geni.us/JMRGQLk

Hi. I'm from the Uk and create cards as sell as other things. I have had my canon pixma 5050 for a few years now. But now its saying the ink absorbers are nearly full. So i know its prob on its last legs. I print from light to heavy card stock so this printer served me well. But now I don't know what to buy. I don't want to spend a fortune on inks as I use non compatible on mine so no great expense. I can't afford to not have a working printer.

I can't even print normal sized photos bc they made the photo tray 10cm x 15cm, which is NOT 4" x 6" (it's 3.93" x 5.91"). So I either have to cut slivers off of both top and side of every photo I want to print, or jam it in there and try it a bunch of times to get it to finally be able to grab and pull it out. But even then, the print quality sucks. It's absolutely ridiculous that they actually built and still sold a product when they don't know how to convert cm to inches. It also refuses to listen if I try to change the size of something and tell it to print the photo tray. Every setting will say photo tray, but it'll print from the letter tray anyway. And this isn't even taking into account how proprietary their systems are, and how they will essentially brick your printer if you don't use their brand of ink. Also for OP, you could make your videos a lot more concise if you didn't have multiple intros, including telling us what's coming up in multiple sections. Just a short intro at the beginning briefly saying what you're going to cover, and then just tell the info. I had to keep skipping forward (plus all the damn ads)
