Re: First printer: Does Epson 1400 still make sense?

2009-03-29 by grangermacy

I recently bought my second 1400 for UT14 inkset.  I'm very pleased with this printer on all counts and especially like the way 300+ weight papers have loaded without a problem.

I haven't seen any tire marks on glossy either.  But I would also think that this is very variable with inkset, paper type etc.  With the claria inset, for example, you can use swellable papers. But overall I find these papers problematic.
