So around 8-9 weeks ago i bought a printer new off a lady on ebay and over past 3 weeks i havent been able to use it i suspect a print head is blocked
Its an epson workforce A3.
Now i'm going to get another one but lost faith in epson, so i may look at a Ricoh or sawgrass.
Does any supplier do payment options interest free etc
Thanks
Unless you are experienced with sublimation -which I am not- I would suggest getting your printer, inks, paper, heatpress and substrates from a single supplier. That way they will be able to offer help when things go wrong.

The best way maybe is to get a small personal loan, the cost of the machines isnt really high enough to warrant machine finance ie a 3-5 year repayment term.Originally Posted by jose24
If you have a financial adviser, talk to them.
Are you sure you'll be able to make enough to cover the payments? This type of work isn't the gold mine that a lot of people were hoping for.
No worries ive went and bought a new sawgrass one. no sure it will pay for itself but might aswell give it a try. Cheers guys
You buy a dodgy printer off eBay and then blame Epson !
Do you have an interest free option on a credit card by any chance? Spread the cost, zero interest :-)

No just went for it but it would be nice to spread cost on these items, this is more a hobby/sideline for me. Running another business i know its important to have cashflow.
To be fair printer was new and prob not Epson fault but after 8 weeks it should still run ok dont think they like the sublimation ink
