Time to buy a new photo/art printer - what do you print? What's my current 'best' printer?

[@Neil-Aspinall]

Thanks Keith you are a indispensable font of printer/printing knowledge. Earlier this year after much agonizing about chioce I bought a Canon Pro 4100 large format printer. After much advice (confusing at best) it seemed like the professional way to go with it's pigment archival ink Whilst I am very happy with B&W printing I must say the colour side of things leaves a lot to be desired. So I would say that if a person was after a printer with 'popping' colour, pigment is not the way to go. Dye based inks although not 'archival' have better vibrancy. You live and learn.

[@KeithCooper]

The 4100 will do very well with the right media/profiling, but it's always going to show against dyes and ultra glossy paper. My review is of the almost identical PRO-2000 [before started videos]

[@mickdean2256]

As a Mac user this has been very instructive as I'm considering the ET8550, so the colour management information has persuaded me that's the way to go. I do need good quality prints but dye based inks are sufficient and cost effective for me. I sometimes think printer reviews are much like camera reviews insofar as they are far more significant to the user as opposed to the comment feedback from the customer/end user. Most lay people just want good quality and aren't pixel peeping or whatever the printed version of that is. Thanks.

[@KeithCooper]

Yes - I may be a working architectural photographer, but I do appreciate many just want some nice looking prints ;-)

[@davidbertrand895]

Keith, thank you for the warning about overspray on borderless prints. I have a MacBook Pro, ET-8550 and a Wi-Fi account. I downloaded driver software from Epson and am printing wireless with great results.

[@KeithCooper]

Excellent - take care with paper dust as well, it does not mix well with ink over spray

[@luismurag]

Hello Keith, I got my L8180 (ET-8550) 3 months ago and very pleased with it. It actually exceeded my expectations. Surprised what this little printer can do.

[@KeithCooper]

Yes - of all printers I've tested in the last few years, it was the one which most exceeded my expectations

[@jameswalker7874]

Sorry to hear of your loss. I bought an ET-8550 after watching your videos and reading the written review more than a few times! I'm rather pleased with it and slowly extending my paper choices. I bought it for the running costs and to continue learning. I was very tempted by a P700/900 but knew I'd get fed up of "wasting" money on prints that weren't what I hoped for. I'll upgrade it at some point I'm sure, but it's actually proven to be better than I'd hoped. The only slight concern I have is how long the dye will take to fade, but can always reprint in the future. The P5370 could be something for me in the distant future, the larger cartridges making the cost per print somewhat less scary :-) Re ink subscriptions - I had one with HP. Still do actually, and I'll probably keep my Envy for borderless 6x4 prints as it's already filthy inside (though no negative consequence to the printed side of any photo/document). I found it really good, and saved me a fortune. It's gone up to £2.99 now for 50 prints per month - as long as you're aware of the con, you can make sure you win. Printing just a full stop on a page counts as 1, as does a full colour borderless a4 print. You can roll forward unused prints within reason to use later too.

[@KeithCooper]

Thanks very much... I do know of people making good use of subscriptions, but it's something to go into after reading the fine print.

[@jameswalker7874]

@@KeithCooper Definitely is, I can see people getting their fingers burnt quite easily. It's one of those cases where the devil is in the detail. I must say though when I had a faulty cartridge (first one in about 40 cartridges), they gave me a new cartridge delivered next day and 2 months free printing on the highest plan, so the customer care is pretty good.

[@johnsmith1474]

A tip you might find useful: Rather than pure BW, which a lot of average printers do not do so well, give a shot at some quadtone type interpretations that are nearly BW. My experience is that they really sing.

[@KeithCooper]

Excellent - but do read the B&W supplement in the main [written] review - far more info than I can include in the videos

[@KeithCooper]

QT style inks are not easily available in some markets apart from direct import. There isn't a multi-black option for the 300 that I know of? QTR for example, does not support Canon printers.

[@ArneHalvorsen63]

Interesting answers. Not heard about this quadtone type interpretations. Well I am a beginner in printing. I am not married to the Canon 300 but is / was kind of drifting towards it, liked the reviews and price. But one who mainly make bw photos (daily carry is a Leica Q2 monochrome) maybe should look at Epsons for this reason?

Kieth I've noticed when I click on links in your videos it takes me to the 8550 printer. I suspected this was a hint at your top choice for most people.

[@KeithCooper]

Not deliberate AFAIK - but it's the most viewed one

[@JsR-7and9]

Keith. Thank you as always. One thing that attracted me to ink-tank printers was that I could see how much ink was in the tanks before doing a large print, and top-up if necessary. With cartridges on smaller printers, apart from being expensive in themselves, I would be tempted to change one or more before printing, or run out of a colour during a print. I’d be interested to know how you manage cartridges on your printers.

[@KeithCooper]

The only printer I regularly use is the P5000, where I know that I can let the printer yell at me several times about a cart being very low before changing - they are also bigger [220ml carts]When testing printers I do try and run them to empty to get a feel for this - it's often something I'll mention in the main [written] reviews.

Keith I appreciate your work and ability to communicate. You mentioned that you weren't a fan of Lightroom. I would be interested in learning more about you recommend for editing photos. TY

[@KeithCooper]

Thanks - A personal dislike, not one I make strongly as a recommendation ;-) I do perhaps need to revisit this since the latest version does not require a catalog [one of my gripes] I've used Photoshop for nearly 25 years though, so I think in terms of layers and masked/blended adjustments.

Another very happy ET8550 user. Had issues with thicker paper but using the rear slot sorted that out. Had a problem recently when the printer stopped half way through A3 prints. Turned out to be the Wi-Fi link and a simple 'old fashioned' USB cable solved the issue. Epson help chat were very helpful in getting to the cause of the problem, by the way.

Hello, this is a great video. I am a Mac Pro and Adobe Photoshop/Illustrator user needing a new printer for my home office. I currently use an old HP OfficeJet x585 Color MFP which has been great. But, it has now started to have many issues after several years of use (back and top feeder problems). I typically print around 25-50 pages per month for standard work documents (B&W) and some flyers (color) for my small business. I prefer a printer with a bottom tray ready to go when needed. I often use the top auto feeder for scanning, copying, and printing. I sometimes use the printer to make cards and invitations for holidays and birthdays on card stock. I also print glossy photos in sizes 4 x 6, 5 x 7, or 8.5 x 11 for my family. I say the photos must look at least decent to good.

[@KeithCooper]

Thanks - I don't tend to look at office style printers like that I'm afraid. There are so many of them - I tend to just concentrate on photo performance

[@Mike0193Azul]

Just got the Epson 8550. Have been using an HP Office Pro but the inks run out so quick and while my mother had a relatively inexpensive subscription for ink ($50 a year), I find it criminal that HP makes it so you cannot use your ink if you cancel the subscription. Plus, I wanted to finally print out some professional photos whilst having a ton of ink to work with. Now to do research on what papers to buy. I assume the stock ink should suffice for any photo type needs. Definitely going to avoid border less prints for a while though

[@KeithCooper]

The initial ink should give a good run of prints - there is no good reason not to use the OEM inks. See all the linked info/videos at www.northlight-images.co.uk/epson-et-8550-printer-review/

Hi Keith, nice and helpful video. Bought Epson L8180 (ET-8550)this year with help from your videos. and I can say that for now I'm very satisfied. Colors are beautiful and same as they are on my calibrated monitor, and the best part is that it's dirty cheap to print. I'm using Solution Daily Luster paper, sharp and accurate colors and no special profile, just Epson's Luster working great. My only concern is, how long will prints last? If they are displayed in frame with glass in room, not in direct sunlight...

[@KeithCooper]

I don't have any specific info on this - I'd expect decades, but this is an aspect of testing I cannot do.

Thanks Keith. Your reviews are great! I'm in the process of taking my photography into the next stage: home printing. I'm based in Singapore, and all I can find is the Epson EcoTank L8050 and L18050. I wonder if they are the same/similar in quality at least to the ET8550/8500 you mentioned?

Unlikely any of the aqueous inkjet printers I test will work with that media [unless it's specifically produced for such ink] You need to go to a commercial printer dealer and ask what works with it - expect considerable expense... Ask the suppliers of the media what works with it?

[@Waltuo]

I received my factory new Epson ET-8550 last week and upon opening the box instantly noticed a heavy mold/mildew smell coming from inside the package. I didn't unpack the printer further but instead contacted the retailer to ask for a new replacement unit. The employee handling the issue said this is totally normal, as apparently a lot of new electronics are processed with a fungicide or similar product that can smell a lot like actual mold. She said this is common occurence with for example new Apple products, and that the smell should disappear within a few days. I've kept the unit for now, I tried to investigate this further but was unable to find much information on this topic, especially concerning Epson products. I haven't had this happen with my previous electronics purchases so I was wondering have you experienced odd smell with any of your Epson printers or packaging? Thinking whether I should just return the unit or give it a go. Thank you for the awesome channel and content, keep up the good work!

Hi Keith, Like all your reviews. I need a replacement for my Epson Pro 3880 and most reviews are more focused on glossy paper but I am using only various matte papers (including Kozo) and about half is B&W. I was reading many review of the Pro-1000 and P900 (could also wait for the P5370 for better paper handling) but is there a preference for matte paper and B&W?

Both pretty good with the right media choices [i.e. pick the paper after the printer] See the B&W sections of each review www.northlight-images.co.uk/epson-sc-p900-printer-review/ www.northlight-images.co.uk/canon-pro-1000-printer-review/ I reviewed the PRO-1000 when it first came out [so no video!] long enough ago for each one that I'd have to re-read my own reviews to remember what they were like [that's the written reviews, I don't watch my own videos!]

After being generally unimpressed by the send-out print services, I am now considering purchasing a professional grade printer.

I cant afford a large printer and also I have a large volume of print quality photos so I decided to buy the canon selphie 1500 because the colours produced are exceptional on such a tiny compact printer. If the print comes out really well on the selphie, then I know im good to blow it up larger using a lab without worry of losing quality. I print what I think looks good on screen with the selphie, walk away for a couple of weeks and come back and only the very odd really good photo gets sent away to a lab, but I still have my little photo album regardless with minimal cost

[@KeithCooper]

An interesting choice - media costs could be off-putting for some. That and colour management issues. But as ever, if it works for you...

[@Kuviavalosta]

Hello Keith and thank you for your informative videos! I've been using my Canon Pro 300 for couple of years and printed borderless photos as well. In pro 300 there is no maintenance cartridge so all those spilled ink droplets find their placeses somewhere inside the printer. But do you know what kind of impact the cumulated spilled ink would show in my future prints if any? Ps. I've purchased and read your book of tilt-shift lenses. It was very well written and informative as well!

[@KeithCooper]

Thanks - the strip under the print head is supposed to be where hte ink goes, but fins droplets will spread around the printer. A good clean of the plastic under where the print head goes can be useful, but test first with some slightly damp kitchen paper to see if there is much there. Watch not to clean the head support bars, since this usually needs keeping slightly greased. Paper dust with ink is the bigger issue, but that depends on the paper types

[@Kuviavalosta]

​@@KeithCooperThanks for the tips! Indeed I found wet ink absorbed into the long narrow strip of foam under the print head as you said. Interesting how the ink was still wet even though it has been few weeks since I printed last time. That wetness after a long period of idle time may be a good indicator when it's time to absorb excess ink to a kitchen paper. I use mainly textured art paper so paper dust is an evident outcome. Although it didn't look bad after two years of usage. Seems that brushing the papers before printing really helps.

[@KeithCooper]

Yes - dust from paper can be quite an issue over time

thanks so much! i'm thinking of getting a starter inkjet printer for graphics, drawings, text art, and photos. i want to print on cardstock and the thickest papers i can print on to then add paint and mixed media art work on top. i use a mac. i'm torn between an ink tank printer from Canon (G620 which i believe is the same as the G550 you were discussing but including a scanner) or an Epson ET-2800 (could also jump up to the 2850). The epson has only 4 inks, and the canon has 6. epson doesn't make a very affordable option with 6 inks, it's only once you get to the ET-8500 which is out of my budget. do you think it matters to get the Canon vs. the Epson? Does the extra ink colors matter much, or could I save a little and go with the epson? thanks!

[@KeithCooper]

If you'r using a Mac, remember that colour management can be problematic on the Gxx0 printers See my written reviews of the 550 and 2850 for much more nuanced analysis of this www.northlight-images.co.uk/epson-et-2850-printer-review/ www.northlight-images.co.uk/canon-g550-printer-review/ The inks do matter, but less than many think The real key is colour management and media selection. Get the wrong media, something not meant for inkjet [card stock] and no mater what printer you have, the results will likely look awful...

[@KeithCooper]

If you want to print with the inkjet printer, then the paper needs to be inkjet compatible. Pick some other paper and results are unpredictable - typically poor.

Price are not really far, they are two printers for production. twice are big/huge ;) But what about print quality ? cost by page ? 5300 is more recent, but 7500 has 2 extra colours (greys for blak and white). You reviewed twice, what can be your advice about this choice ? Thanks a lot for your feedback, from France.

[@KeithCooper]

I'd take a P7500, but purely because it's 24" not 17" Of course that depends on what you're printing and what size? [and for who...] Quality wise - not many could detect any difference with good papers and profiles The P5300 does have that paper cassette, so can just be loaded up with sheets - all depend on the size However... you mention a business.

This is broadly the same style you'll get if I do a talk for a camera club, speak at a conference or teach :-)
