I found a cartridge-less Epson 1400 printer out for the trash a month ago.
It powers up and talks to my Mac. Naturally with no cartridges, I can't do more testing.
I don't want to throw money after a loser, but this used to be a capable machine.
Is it wise to get cleaning fluid and equipment and where do I do this and how is it done?
I would like to print a huge backlog of color snapshots (thousands possibly, hundreds for sure).
The least expensive way to test after cleaning would be remanufactured cartridges. But, If I knew it worked, refill-able cartridges would be the way to go.
Eventually, I could see using it for B/W printing and digital negative making.
Thoughts? Opinions?
