Hello lovely people.

I'm very new to Etsy and haven't managed to list any products yet. I'm hoping to start selling my greeting cards very soon but I'm having issues with my printer. I currently use a HP B9180 and am thinking of getting a newer model rather than throwing more money at it. Does anyone have any advice/thoughts on the Epson R3000? or any other recommendations?

I really would appreciate any comments.

Many thanks. Jo xxxxxx

Hi Jo,
Depends on how what sizes you want to print. I have been very happy with the Canon printers, however I don't print anything larger than 8.5x11. Currently I am using the ip7220. Color is great. I recommend this printer.

Wishing you success with your cards!

Hi Joanne,
I bought the Epson R3000 a few months ago and I really like it, I don't have any complaints with it so far. I like that the cartridges are a bit bigger than other printers so potentially you don't have to buy ink as often. If you have any questions about it I'mm happy to try and help :)

I just revived my etsy shop to sell cards made using photos of my paintings. We have a Cannon Pixma M66120 that is a couple of years old. So far it has done a great job of printing digital photographs of my work. I agree that the color is great. I am trying to keep track of how many photographs it can print on a full set of ink because ink is so expensive. I have heard good things about the Epson, but I do love my Cannon! Good luck with your shop!
