Epson Ecotank 8500 Printer Review - Print Professional Artwork DIY At Home

[@dogbreath180]

I am ready to pull the trigger on this and was wondering if one is trying just to copy an ad from an old magazine will the color be accurately reproduced and does the photo black kick in when just copying something. I hope this helps others as well. Great vid BTW.

For me it’s perfect quality. And your art is beautiful.

[@GreenlifeFin]

Lovely review and nice art.

[@paulrobilotti9294]

am I able to print different size photos or am I limited to printing on size, Thx

[@ikantdanz]

Thank you! This is exactly the information I was looking for.

How did you print the heavy paper postcard? My epson et 8500 won't pull in the paper, everything above 220g/m2 gets stuck....

[@SandraEide]

I use the back feed for any thick paper or cardstock. Flip open the back panel and feed the paper through, something I need to manually push it during print for the back feed to grab onto the paper.

[@annamollers5853]

@@SandraEide thank you so much for your answer! i didn't know it can do different formats with the back feed! I will definetely try it

[@Jana-ri7jt]

@@annamollers5853 Hi did it work with your printer? I`m thinking about buying the epson et 8500 but I need it for thick paper up tp 300 g.

[@farmerZen]

@@SandraEide can you print borderless that way?

Thanks for the video! Just got one and I've been trying to decide on paper

[@benblankenburg]

Thanks for the video. We are considering this printer for greeting cards. Could you please share how many pieces of card stock can be loaded at once? Is it only through the back feed, or can you also load A-9 pre-creased card stock in the front tray? Thank you!

[@Amylynnp777]

Besides the epson premium papers do you have any other papers your love for art prints or cards I ordered this printer , and your video has helped me decide :)

[@SandraEide]

I'm so glad you liked this video! I will be doing a video soon with my favorite art print papers. I absolutely adore Red River Paper, especially Aurora White - www.redrivercatalog.com/browse/aurorawhite.html?a_aid=66634fa8397fe

Thank you for this review! Is it possible to write with a fountain pen on top of the inked paper without smudging the printed ink? I want to create my own journaling pages and I wonder if there are problems when writing on the paper because of the dye ink epson uses. 🤔

[@SandraEide]

Thanks so much for watching, as far as these specific Epson papers they are fine so far to write on. They are matte, not gloss so no smudging issues

[@rieekeerey5902]

@@SandraEide I just bought this printer 🥰 and with the right paper the writing works well. I use HP color choice paper. Thanks again 👍🏻, your review helped with my decision for the printer. The only issue is the smell from the ink, but I guess that's the case with every inkjet printer. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Super helpful video! Thanks!

This printer often goes on sale for ~$450. Just keep an eye on it if you want to buy it.

[@paulrobilotti9294]

if you belong to costco it is an by order only for $439.

[@removebe4flight]

I have et8500 and also canon pro 100. Epson prints have more grain than pro 100 ones. A bit disappointed.

[@juliemonroe105]

I am getting ready to purchase this, this is very helpful. Thank you.
