I'm just so blessed that I came across your channel. I'm a first time homeschooling mom from the Philippines and love to purchase curriculum from the US that I watched other channels but shipping would definitely be costly. Your channel gave me a lot of new options to look out that offers a pdf version so I can do home printing.praying for more blessings and wisdom to your family. 🥰

Yay! I'm glad it has been a help :)

[@shannonfbc1]

Thank you very much I have a bunch of kids and using the good and the beautiful so hopefully this saves us money over buying them

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

It has helped us a bunch!

[@shannonfbc1]

Barnes and noble does beautiful work but not cost effective for the good and the beautiful with multiple kids though it adds up so fast

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

Good to know. :)

[@Belen8888]

Thank you for the recommendations! I'm about to look int o the Epson EcoTank

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

You're welcome. Canon also has some great options!

[@TheHomeschoolHelpmate]

Hey fellow homeschool mom ! Im a little of both (order and print). I got an Eco Printer for Christmas and I’m love. Planning to print TGTB curriculum for next year. What paper did you use ? It looks nice and glossy !

[@shannonfbc1]

I'm sitting here wondering if I can talk my husband into this printer the books I need printed now could pay for it though.

I've been looking for a review on the epsom printers and my other options and honestly this is the best one I've seen so far! thank you!

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

I'm so glad!

The Epson ET3750 is $750 but the ET2720 is only $290. What do you think about the cheaper ET2720 model? We're looking at buying one of the eco-tank printers for printing color pages for home school use. I wanted to add that we use a Brother toner printer that we bought cheap at a thrift store for printing black only. The powder toner is cheap and we buy the bottles and refill the big cartridge. It works great!

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

I would just check whether or not it has auto duplex printing (double-sided) or not. There are definitely cheaper models than the one I have that do auto-duplex though so even if the 2720 doesn't I'd look around and see if you can find another that is close in price but has that feature if it's something you'll use a lot.

@@ThisHomeschoolHouse Right. I'll do some more research and let you know which one we get and how it works out for us. Thanks!!

[@elenatwine7073]

Hi, have you bought your printer at the end? Which model did you choose and how it works? Can you please share your experience. I'm in prosess of buying one for myself. Thanks

[@nubnubnyc]

hello, many thanks for this informative video. Would you mind sharing what your preferred machines are for both binding as well as laminating? much appreciated!

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

I use the Trubind S20a for binding and I just have a super cheap laminating machine that I found on clearance. :)

[@mjabdus86]

Which saves money more, a laser printer or regular ink ?

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

In my experience, an epson ecotank is cheaper to run.

[@tanyazachara3292]

What do you do about the maths manipulatives? Do you recreate them DIY?

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

I did last year but I'll be purchasing all of the boxes for their new Simply Good & Beautiful Math curriculum.

[@jeniferteodoro4513]

What kind of paper do you use?

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

I tend to us 80gsm for some things and 100gsm for full colour pages. :)

[@unpa3295]

Considering this is from 4 years ago, do you still recommend the same printer?

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

Yes! It served us well. We've just upgraded to a new one (although the Epson still works, but was getting glitchy). I ended up going with a Canon Maxify. :)

[@wendymilne-emslie8329]

What binding machine and coils do you use? X

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

I have a Trubind S20A and I get my spiral coils from Lamination Depot.

[@francinesandino2579]

I have a problem. I do have an epson ecotank printer, the et 2720 to be more precise, how ever in the country i live i dont find the ink number for this printer. Is it posible to use another ecotank ink available instead? Because i am stuck with a printer without ink and a bunch of tgtb pdfs to be printed out. Which is not letting me homeschool my children. I am getting desperate for my kids falling behind in their homeschool education. Thank you in advance🙏🏻

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

Hi there, I'm afraid I'm not sure as I only know about what's available where I live.

[@kristiea3897]

You and me both, momma haha! Thank you for this video 🙏🏻♥️

[@ThisHomeschoolHouse]

You are so welcome!
