EPSON Stylus Pro 7800 - Large Format Photo Inkjet Printer #336
Comments
Mein letzter Stand war, dass noch fünf Patronen bestellt werden müssen. Hier sind jedoch nur vier aufgelistet. Benötigen wir jetzt nur noch vier neue Patronen? |
I have created a wiki page at: https://wiki.comakingspace.de/EPSON_Stylus_Pro_7800 The commissioning template indicates the steps, which are needed to bring the new machine into a released state :) What can be done by everybody is mainly the documentation. Regarding Wifi Printing, etc.: If you like, we can offer a Raspberry Pi for setting up CUPS. Compatibility would need to be checked (Stylus Pro 7000 & 7500 seem to be compatible - so we could try the 7800 as well). Setting up CUPS might be a good option, since we could then use the same raspberry pi also for our second large format printer (HP DesignJet 500)), which as far as I know is CUPS compatible. |
Ja. Eine neue Magenta-Patrone habe ich noch vorrätig, dachte es wäre eine "hell Magenta". (Die Tintenbezeichnungen bei dem Drucker sind etwas verwirrend. Die Tinten-Nummer, die im Druckertreiber angezeigt wird, ist nicht identisch mit der Nummer auf der Tintenverpackung). |
Does CUPS support custom colour profiles (printer profile, paper profiles etc?) |
I am not sure, whether CUPS supports custom color profiles. I know that CUPS has support for selecting standard color profiles (I think I read something about Adobe RGB & sRGB), but I don´t know whether you can define your own ones. Since I have no clue about color profiles at all, that would be something the person setting it up would need to research on. The ink has been ordered and should arrive soon™️ Since you have mentioned writing an introduction as a ToDo: What we cannot judge yet is how close this printer is to a household printer and how significant the actual danger (either for the operator or the machine) is. However, it is quite obvious that there is content which needs to be documented in the wiki. The only question is whether we require formal tutoring or not. Thus, let´s document it in the wiki. Once it is done, we can decide, whether we will require formal tutoring or not 😊 |
Im Common Room steht schon seit ein paar Monaten ein zweiter Großformat-Tintenstrahldrucker. Die ursprüngliche Fehlermeldung (Code 0001002D "The pump counter reached the prescribed upper limit") konnte ich dauerhaft beseitigen.
Um höchste Foto-Qualität liefern zu können, verwendet der Drucker insgesamt 8 Tinten:
Schwarz – Grau ("light black") – Hellgrau ("light light black") – Cyan – Cyan hell – Magenta – Magenta hell - Gelb
Zum Inbetriebnehmen des Druckers benötigen wir noch die folgenden Tintenpatronen.
Original-Epson Tinten sind sehr teuer (€120 / 220ml Patrone).
Easy-inks.de stellt kompatible Tinten her (€28 / 220ml). Laut Telefonat mit Easy-Inks sind die Tinten farblich identisch mit Epson-Tinten:
