“Epson Stylus Photo RX420 ”

Epson Stylus Photo RX420



Make no doubt about it, this is the worst piece of hardware that I have ever bought. But just to clear up a few issues for those poor souls who bought this horrid thing...



1. Printer only prints half the page and paper fed in at an angle:



rx420 tries to detect page size automatically, if the paper is flush to the left it assumes its half its actual width. Paper needs to be flush to the right and the "PAPER EDGE GUIDE" on the left moved towards the paper on the right for a snug fit.

2. Ink consumption and black ink only



Epson does it damndest to make you use as much ink as possible, there no doubt about this, but there are options. In printer preferences you can click advanced options and check the black ink only option, its worth playin around here because you can set up your own quality options. Buy jettec ink 100% more pages for half the price and a better product. (no good rewarding epson for a shoddy printer - hit em where it hurts)
