Hi all,
Today an extremely generous person gifted me a lovely Epson 7600 printer. I've set it up, run the nosel checks and head alignment, and all is working perfectly despite it sitting unused for quite some time. It's atribute to technology, really, as I had a smaller 1410 Epson sitting idle for over four years that fired right up and didn't even need a head clean.
Anyway, I'm just interested to find out any information, tips and tricks, or pitfalls of this printer before I invest in a new set of inks. It's currently set up with Photo Black, but I'll change it to Matte Black. I have the conversion kit on hand and I've done the procedure on a 7800 before so should be straight forward. I usually print on Hahnumuhle Photorag 308gsm. Does anyone have experience with this combination?
In addition to the above, I will use my Colormunki to profile the paper and ink just in case there are any anomalies in the heads, etc.
Hopefully someone out there can share some basic info to save me some blood, sweat and tears troubleshooting!
Thanks all,
TJV
