Re: Printers

["paul a. teolis" <fxrogue@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't suppose there are any Epson 750 printers around, but this is what I
have been using since they replaced the 700's I believe, someone can correct
me if I am wrong....I have had nothing but great praise for it, no fading or
anything, but then again I am mostly using it for infrared printing, very
little colour. This is on the regular Glossy Paper not the premium batch too.

The only problem that there was with the 750 and I think this also happened
with the 1200 is the pizza wheel effect. This is the tracking wheels that
feed the paper out, sometimes leaves these tiny notches in the print. Mine
only happened a couple of times then stopped. The only way to solve this
problem was to remove the wheels and that is an ordeal.

great thread everyone....
