  • what are peoples views on the epson stylus pro 7800?

    Hello Guys,
    does anyone have this printer? It is the 610 version, a local shop is closing and have offered it to us, they have used it predominantly for printing photos. I have googled it but just wondering if anyone has one, and if they are happy with it?

    thanks

    Dan

    I have a 9600 and it is a great bit of kit, much better quality print than my solvent printer, I used to do canvas on the solvent but now only do them on the epson as colours are so much richer.

    I use mine to support a local photo studio, if you need photographic quality then in my opinion the epson is the way to go.

    Do not know what the smaller ones are worth but 9800 around £2500 mark maybe less if you look around.

    Regards

    Russell.

    I’ve got the Epson 7000 and I am very happy with it. I bought it second hand from a chap that was doing canvas prints on it, he demonstrated it working on a canvas and the quality was very good.

    I use mine for dye sublimation, bought in some refillable larger carts from China and had no problems at all with it.

    I have an Epson 4000, which is the 17" wide version. It makes incredibly good prints, and fast too (1" wide head). Highly recommended.
