Benr98 40 Posted January 4, 2009 I have no idea about this one...but I have the HP Officejet All in one... I think alot depends on what you need it for most....cause that HP WOW goes through the ink! But it's great for scanning which is what I use it for the most. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cutme 5 Posted January 4, 2009 i have two epson stylus photo 2200 printers i picked up on craigslist for $30 each. they both work perfectly. josh; can you control the ink quantity (saturation, brightness, tone) with your hp? bb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

firemalt 10 Posted January 4, 2009 http://reviews.cnet.com/multifunction-devices/kodak-esp-7/4505-3181_7-33342058.html?tag=mncol;lst According to Consumer Reports... the ESP 5 got a score of 57 out of 100. I'm gonna say Kodak is more of a beginner's brand. Simple features, simple functions, simple results... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msmith08 2 Posted January 5, 2009 I have a Kodak ESP-9 absolutely love it. Everything Ive done so far looks great and the ink prices were a relief, not the prices we are normally used to. Id recommend this machine for sure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joshlindt 2 Posted January 7, 2009 well i got the esp7 today and so far im liking it printing on picture paper gives a way better quility print then regular paper that is for sure. this thing feeds paper so fast you have to have the catch out or it will shoot the paper right out of the front Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks. Sandy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kearn 0 Posted January 8, 2009 the vinyl I ended up buying was SIHL aqua base 24" x 65ft $102.00 throughsign warehouse. I know other supply houses offer it. But you also have to laminate it after printing before you contour cut it I struggled for a month with different vinyl, until I spoke with Stephanie from sign warehouse.

Cre8tiveCutter 7 Posted January 8, 2009 Hi all! I would definetly recommend this printer as long as you are NOT doing iron on transfers! An epson is the way to go for that. I love my kodak for printing pictures, brochures, biz cards etc as the ink is way cheap! I recently switched from the kodak to the epson work force 500 for business and gave my daughter who is 11 the kodak printer because she likes to print EVERYTHING and i just cant support her habit using the cannon we have at home...lol. Seems to me that whichever kodak printer you purchase, it all uses the same ink so no worry about having to remember what the # is for whatever printer model you have. I purchased the epson so i can print decent quality iron on's but I do also have an HP Laser printer for my brochures, biz card and anything I have to print in quanity. I'm currently working on new menu's for a local pizza restaurant. Renee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cre8tiveCutter 7 Posted January 8, 2009 Hi Sandy, I have tried many diff ones but I really like and use the most Jet Pro Softstretch. Really nice paper...

SandyM114 0 Posted January 8, 2009 Do the jet pro transfers limit you to only using white shirts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
