Hi guys, newbie on the forum, but been doing sublimation a few years.
Over the years i have used epson printers and have probably gone through 3 in last 30 months, started with C46, D92 and currently using D120 with ciss. the c46 & d92 were used using refillables and d120 a ciss, teh first 2 printers stopped working after about 8-9 month due to clogging and head cleaning wasnt enough, dont get me wrong they were only cheap printers and they did quite a few prints, the d120 cost me a little more and has done 2-3000 mugs (approx 1200 full colour pages) and this morning decided just not to turn on. (ive tried everything, new fuse in plug, new printer lead, but it just wont turn on) so i have to buy a new printer and not sure which to go for...
Shall i buy a Ricoh GXe3300N or another epson with ciss kit?
I have read a few reviews on the ricoh and the majority is good but there are a few negative storys, with only having knowledge of using epson printers i have found them pretty easy to set up and print etc, not having to install profiles and still getting perfect prints, but i'm fed up of the blockages every other day and the paper waste with miscoloured prints.
Is the ricoh as easy to setup and does how does the print quality compare to epson printers? i print mainly mugs but the occassional mousemat and t shirt.
Sorry the post has gone on for a while but your comments and advice are very much apprieciated.
Thanks
