Epson 1400 versus Epson 1800: Does anyone know how the 1400 and 1800 compare?
469983
Well, the main advantage for me is that the 1800 can print on roll paper so one can do panoramics or smaller prints on roll paper, whereas, the 1400 will not. The price of the ink for the 1400 is more expensive (e.g., $6,534 per gallon) compared to the 1800 (only $4,053 per gallon). You thought gasoline was expensive. I suspect the 1400 will make better prints on glossy paper and the 1800 will make better prints on matte paper. There are a few other differences that are not important to me. Cheers.

Biltz, I was so disapointed with Epson, that I will never buy a epson product again. they do not stand behind their product!.. I replace it with a Vivitek H1180HD bougth at Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Vivitek-H1180HD-Blu-Ray-Theater-Projector/dp/B00FJ1Q5SQ/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid;=1421444429&sr;=8-12&k;eywords=vivitek+projector&pebp;=1421444439818&peasin;=B00FJ1Q5SQ). Same or better specs as far screen size , throw, distance, etc.. with much more vivid colors and 3D capabilities.. Price about the same... I am very happy with the Vivtek.

I have a 2530 and they work just fine. It tells me it is a non Epson product and I have to confirm that I want to use it.

I have the user guide but am unable to find the information you are asking about. I would recommend emailing Epson with your question.

Thanks, Michele. I'm surprised, too by your comments about the colours. After being advised that the cartridges for the MX860 were very expensive and that the MX850 had problems connecting wirelessly, I ended up buying an Epson TX800FW. The few photos I've printed look ok to me. (I'm not a pro). It's been great to have a fax. One if its drawbacks is only one full-sized paper tray. I've yet to fully test out the machine.

According to Epson, 200XL can print approx. 500 pages while 200 can print approx. 175 pages.

I have an Epson WF-2540, so it's close. I'm OK with them so far. I've noticed a slight difference in color intensity, but very slight. I got this bunch for less than half of what it would cost to get the Epson make, and pictures come out fine. What's annoying is the error messages the printer sends out after the cartridges are installed telling you they're not authentic Epson, but but then things go quiet. The printer was reasonably priced, but it would cost about two sets of Epson refills and you paid for it again. That's not worth it to me. I will shop around again if I need to, but I will buy these again if the price is right. Hope that helps. I have an Epson WF-2540, so it's close. I'm OK with them so far.

I've had mine over a year, I think. Never had a problem. I use it almost daily in my business for documents and color signage; even use "not recommended" refillable ink cartridges. The Epson 30 was purchased to use with an older Mac. I've had 4 Epson printers in 18 years and only one quit working (it was under a water leak that happened during a roof repair). I bought, and use, the others (wide format) for more precise and accurate color printing with a newer Mac. I've never been unhappy with Epson printers but hate the ink prices.

No. You must buy an aftermarket CISS kit for the 1400 and get the proper inks as well. Mine is finicky, but once you get things working together (monitor, software, paper, and printer) it really is the cheapest way to get high quality stuff up to 13x19.

I have an Epson...not sure which model..but it normally takes #98 or 99...And this one works great...much much cheaper than buying at store

I owned a 3800 until it died, and then I bought a 3880. Difference is the 3880 uses different inks claiming to be better. I can tell no difference in the prints, however. If you use paper/printer profiles in Photoshop, though, note they are different.

Be very careful in picking a replacement ink. The cheap stuff on Ebay will work, but the color gamut is wildly different so color management will be a nightmare. I have been using the Lyson CavePaint in my 2200 for years with excellent results, it actually has a slightly wider gamut than the epson ink. I am waiting for their 2400 compatable ink and bulk feed system before purchasing my 2400, but I will trust their inks.

CanoScan has been a great tool. I know nothing about the Epson. I wouldn't get too fired up about high resolutions that either machine is capable of because it's likely you'll not have the time to use the capability if you have a lot of scanning to do.

I have the Artisan 810 and it is a major ink hog. Probably will return to HP and accept some of their flaws. At least the HP ink is a lot less expensive that the Epson. Too bad since in most other aspects, the 810 is a decent all in one unit.

I have never had any need to do so. Check directly with Epson for capabilities.

No experience with the Epson. But I really like my Brother. Sorry, not much help.
