Looking to make our own greeting cards in color. Probably want to go up to 80 lb cover cardstock. Aren’t a lot of options in a home office price range. And it’s frustrating not being able to test one out to see how the cards would turn out. Anyone have experience with this, or suggestions please? Thanks.

I feel so bad that I bought something and I cannot use it

Having trouble finding ink sets for Canon GI-26 ink. Found 1 website (lovetoner.com) but looking for others. Also, does 3rd party ink work for this printer?

I can’t get rid of these weird lines when I print photos

In March, I bought a Brother L2320D, mainly to print lines and dots for notebooks. I spent a long time researching whether to buy a laser printer or an inkjet, but after several months, I'm grateful I bought the laser one because it's been about 3 months since the last time I printed.

I bought that specific model because in my country the newer one was quite a bit more expensive, and I couldn't find toner at a reasonable price for it—that's why I went with this one.

Hi,
Is epson l8050 a good printer for a photo key chain printing business? Today we printed some pictures using L8050 but wasn’t satisfied with the outcome. I shared images via whatsapp and used it on a canvas template. The paper which it was printed on was from the Brand Akruti. Please guide us on how we have better quality prints.

How to fix this issue of the printer not being recognized as a printer only as a scanner so I can't print anything?

Hey folks I have a t3270 used for printing screen printing films. It's been great since new, had it only about 5 years.

I installed a new roll of film today and now I get an error message basically cannot detect paper. Asks me to remove and reinstall.

Wondering if people have any experience with this error and if there are sensors I should be looking for to clean or replace.

A few things I tried already before the suggestions come in:

Tried a different roll of film

Tried a roll of paper

Tried unplugging and plugging back in

Tried factory settings

Tried different paper settings

Tried compressed air

Tried paper towel through the paper pathway

I’m looking to buy a high quality laser copier for black and white images. I see many black and white copiers offer 600x600 dpi. Is that a high enough resolution for a crisp print of text and line images? Thank you!

Bought 2 sided printer in 2024. Changed the toner a couple of days ago and now getting message 'Jam 2-sided Pull out the 2-sided tray at the back of the machine and remove the jammed paper'. There is no jammed paper in tray 2 (or anywhere else) but the paper will not catch to print on reverse. Also the doobree (technical term) on the left hand side is wobbling oddly. Anyone got any ideas?

It's an off brand toner, but have used before with no trouble. Have also opened a new pack of paper in case it had got damp, but the printer is still sulking.

95% of paper gets stuck in the back of my printer, crumbled against the rollers.
I notice the four guiding rollers have a white pattern and are deformed: I guess that’s not normal.
Is there a consumable part I need to buy or should I just toss the printer after just 6000 pages?

Hallo Community, ich habe den oben genannten Drucker und nutze für Scan-To-Mail die ADF (automatischer Dokumenteneinzug). Ich habe seit einer Woche ein Problem und zwar bei einem Duplex Scan die 1;3;5... Seite einen schwarzen Streifen zeigt. Die Scannereinheit auf dem Flachbrett links (kleines Glasfenster) und die im Deckel wurde mehrfach sorgfältig gereinigt. Das was mich wundert - der Fehler taucht nach dem 2-3 Scan erst wieder auf und ist nicht immer und dauerhaft. Kann es sein das es der Vorgang Scan-To-Mail evtl. einen Fehler besitzt (KI? )? Aktuelle Firmware 1.6 wurde installiert. Danke vorab.

Hello,

We are looking for a new printer for family use (only two of us are using it, a student and a professor).
Our current printer, an Epson XP-4105 Expression Home, is giving up on us. Plus, we are very disappointed because we have had a lot of issues with it: the ink cartridges are way too expensive for how long they last (we have to change them every month), the print quality is deteriorating over time, and the printer only connects to the Wfi after a while.
We have heard about laser printers, but we don’t know if they are cost-effective in the long run. We want a printer that can also scan documents, print in color, and handle double-side printing.

So, do you have any recommandations?

Thanks in advance

I made a thread about inheriting this printer and and initially thought the ink or head was fubar but a deep ink flush seemed to have brought the printer back to life; however it sat for another 3 weeks or so since I resurrected it and now it's doing the same thing. Thankfully, another ink flush was the answer but as the printer's own caution states, it uses a lot of ink to accomplish this. Should I be printing a colour print once a week to avoid this from happening?

Hello,

I'm planning to buy a Brother DCP-L3560CDW 3-in-1 Colour Wireless LED Printer soon.

Can anyone recommend any good quality dust covers I could use with it?

Are there any dust covers that are made to fit this printer?

Thanks.

I have a small business selling stickers. Currently have an Epson et1810 which prints nice quality but is painfully slow! I have played around with settings but “high quality” and “glossy paper” is the best but takes 4-5min to print one a4 page.
Any printers that would print this faster at same or better quality? Thanks!

Hello Everyone,

I have a perfume oil manufacturing business and I have been using TSC TTP 244 Pro.

Now, I have run into some issues into it and need to buy a new one.

I have 3 possible options:

1. TTP 244 Pro
   
2. TL 240
   
3. XA 220

Both 2nd and 3rd are fairly new but I’m getting mixed reviews for these including the maintenance and ribbon alignment post replacement along with some firmware issues.

So, I’m looking for an option on which one to go for and also, I’m based out of India to give you guys clear picture about the region for any repairs or anything else per say.

Looking forward to hear your opinions / suggestions

Hi all, I am thinking of buying a printer and have done some research and people have either recommended the canon pixma ix6820 and Canon G6020 mega tank but can’t decide since they are the same price, any suggestions or advice on which one?

Printer is 18 months old, 1,258 pages printed (95% of which was b/w text). I'm getting a faint white line about 2" from left margin, vertical. Images here are scans of my prints on plain white paper.

I tried: (0) the corona wire swipe-cleaning recommended by Brother; (1) replacing magenta toner; (2) replacing yellow toner; (3) carefully cleaning the drum/rollers; (4) carefully cleaning the LED light glass/windows. I even did the "drum dot print" and it shows that my drums are all clean.

No change, faint light band is still there.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate it. I can't afford to bring it in for repair, especially since the repair will likely cost close to the price of the printer. Thanks...

I have a brother MFC-J497DW printer. it prints great with my off brand cartridge but it thinks the cartridge is empty even though it is half full. Any ideas on how to make it recognise there is still ink in there? I have tried covering parts of the cartridge with tape but I don't even know what part is the sensor? Any ideas?

I recently made a post (https://www.reddit.com/r/printers/s/zEifpdr7Vs).

Quick summary to what I am at now:

Issue with the Brother MFC J4620DW ("paper jam front" even if there is no paper; error stays even without the paper thing being in the printer and only shows up after the printer checks it's status- so if I lift the lid and then connect it to electricity, the code won't show up until I close the lid and it can check everything. Yes there is really no paper and it can print - it did it when the paper jam error was gone for a while).

Well after many tries and errors it worked and printed well. Then it was disconnected from the electricity for two days and the issue was back again. I also don't know what exactly was the point that made it work again.

So I tried and tried and after maaaany tries (I even was in the maintenance menu) I tried another thing an AI suggested: disconnecting the printer from the electricity and then connecting it again while pressing down the left side of the printer. And suprise: it worked. The error "paper jam front" was gone. And then it came back.

So I think this could be a loose contact because why would it suddenly work if I press down the left side of the lid while starting it??

But I still don't know how to fix the issue permanently. Tried restarting it while pressing down and it did not work.

I am open to any suggestions! Thanks! This is so frustrating!

I just bought an Epson L3251 printer. I ran some test prints on plain paper with no problems, but when I use photo paper, these dotted lines appear in various places on the page. Is there a solution for this, or should I try to get a refund?
