New Gadgets

Having had issues with my old printer I have given in and purchased a new shiny toy. I really liked my old printer when I first got it but after I got the Mac it just did not work as well. The fact that I seemed incapable of getting non bordered pictures was a pain in the behind.

Anyway after a mooch about the local PC world we managed to find an Epson that fitted the bill and I have to say I am pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to set up.

The PX800-FW (catchy 'aint it - I shall from here on in refer to it as Wilbur) is one of these specialty printers designed for doing 1001 things, almost non of which I will use in the long run, but it does print great photo's quickly. Now purchasing something that does more than I need it to may well seem like a waste but it does have a number of features that I really like

(1) It provides really detailed prints
(2) You can replace individual ink cartridges as and when needed as there are 6 individual ones
(3) You can duplex print
(4) You don’t take the skin off of your knuckles every time you need to replace one of the inks like I did with the old one

After a day of use I can say that I am happy with my purchase so if you are looking for a new printer it is worth your consideration
