Epson® SureColor® SC-T3170SR Wireless Color Inkjet Large-Format Printer

I host art festivals and got tired of printing my banners through a third party spending thousands of dollars this year for every show I needed to promote! The setup for this printer seemed daunting and I was really worried about the print settings and if the quality would be consistent. I bought a 290 gsm 24" x 100' roll, and unfortunately it didn't fit, so I had to unroll half of it to use for later. Luckily that was not an issue, and I was able to re-roll the second half of the paper onto the roll after it ran out. Loading the new roll was a bit of a challenge, as it fed through crumpled and got jammed, but once that was cleared, it worked great again. I'm unable to use wireless printing due to our internet not having 2.4 ghz (fiber internet has its downsides), but other than that I'm extremely impressed with this printer and I hope it lasts a long time and continues to print my 24x36 banners with ease. I also really appreciate that I can use this printer for smaller print sizes and different paper settings as well! Really excited about this purchase, and relieved that it came with a full warranty just in case, because I do print a LOT. Also, it's super quiet, and Energy Star rated. 10/10!

I bought this 1 year ago to replace an HP Designjet 110, big mistake. An advertised feature of the T3170 is printing posters. This is the worst poster and photo printer I have ever used. It does not print true colors, is almost impossible to get to work with any Adobe suites products, poster layout is a hair pulling exercise. I have wasted nearly a full roll Epson Premium (Luster) Photo Paper (24 inx 90 Ft roll) and a full set of ink cartridges and not yet printed a single useable poster. I do not expect museum or exhibition quality photo prints, but I do expect Epson quality color and resolution on Epson paper. This printer is only used a paper weight and sometimes bookshelf for months now.
