Hi All,
Finally purchased an Epson 3800, have been looking forward to wider printing having owned several smaller format Epson printers over the years.
Along with the regular noise of the print head moving back and forth whilst printing which is similar to any other printer I have used I also hear a kind of light clicking noise, not very loud but not something I would expect to hear. Just wondering if anyone else hears this and is it anything I need to be concerned about? No other problems printing on Epson Traditional Photo paper (UK equivalent of EEF I believe) apart from some sporadic head strikes which I can resolve by widening the platen gap.
One other thing I did notice though was poor matte printing on Archival Matte paper when using the default media settings and printing a standard ramp test chart from digital outback photo, most of dark areas of the print seem to have very visible mark which look like circles or dimples when held in a certain light. I think I have seen something similar with a previous printer when too much ink was laid down but I had not expected this using Epson profiles with default settings on Epson paper!
Thanks
Julian
