What's wrong with the p700?

I was asking about the wetcap but I figured it. I'm only using the CISS for two of my colors.

Not sure how to so I haven't. I think i might be having that issue with the inks mixing right now using the ciss. Can you explain? I have a wet cap solution Yeah I think most of mine probably could of been avoided haha.

Yeah. Im testing out a CISS on right now. Still working out the kinks. Et8550 CISS preview I've had no issues with White, Cyan and Black were starting to have a couple missing spots in the Nozzle Check so I put cleaning solution into the ink tanks, shook it a little bit and that cleared them out pretty good. Had trouble getting the solution out the Black cart so I took out the carts. Then I was able to pour the solution out of Black. No issues removing the cleaning solution from the other colors. This printer is a tank, Its lasted way longer than any of Xp-15000s. I'm sure the quality of the wiper blade and wetcap. My first and second Xp-15000 the CISS flooded the wetcap station both had fatal codes. The 3rd Xp-15000 broke during the maintenance process. I didn't use a CISS with this one. The 4th had clog in the Magenta that I could not fix. I ended up with an error code trying to clear it. Most of those problems were probably caused my human error. They can probably be avoided if you know what you're doing. Silicone around the wetcap station is a fantastic idea. Someone else mentioned they did the same thing. I also had issues with the Xp-15000 reading certain films and especially if I was using Acrorip. I fixed this by putting a white piece of paper in front of the film sheet. The Xp-15000 is probably better for DTF but personally I would still choose the Et-8550. Low maintenance ( I did pretty much zero maintenance in the first month and no issues with white separating. ) Refilling ink is fast. The printer has two auto clean functions, regular and powerful printhead cleans. It has a setting for manually setting your ink levels. Also its chipless so no having install or buy extra software. It has the option to install a roller feeder. There's a setting in the printer preferences. Speed is okay, like 10 mins to print a 13x19 sheet. My issue with this printer was the sensor not reading certain film sheets. I did the paper trick with this works everytime. The other was Photoblack channel was printing a yellowish color ( I haven't figured out how to fix this yet.)

So far it's been great. XP-15000 I think is faster. Here's a video of a full print. Its like 12 mins to print. DTF Et-8550 A3+ Film  Full Printout

I haven't had to do anything specific, I do have the printer on a foldable table and I just rock the printer back and forth on it.

I print off and on, so far no issues with white, I did start shaking the inks in printer. And yeah someone else mentioned air too, next time I'll skip that and just clear the tanks. The printer has been fantastic compared to the Xp15000s I use.

Its been over a month since using the Epson Eco tank ET-8550 for DTF (direct to film) printing and so far everything has been great. This is the first cleaning I have done since buying the printer. Usually I just do the printhead clean function. Today I did the full on maintenance. Epson Ecotank ET-8550 Maintenance Video

ET-8550 DTF Printing and Curing Its been about a month everything is still running smooth on my DTF (direct to film) converted Epson ET-8550. I've had to do very little maintenance, just refilling and a couple cleanings.

@johnson4 I did and it prints correctly for the most part on regular paper and for nozzle checks. It might be the film, I got it printing though. As the printer begins printing and then pulls the film into the printer. I put a plain piece of white paper in front of the film sheet, then the printer pulls the sheet and paper in further and thats when I pull the white paper back out. This has been the only way to get it to print. Here's a video of me doing the trick. Epson Et8550 Paper Trick

I am using Acrorip version 10.4 with the Epson Ecotank Et-8550 and my prints are coming out cut off. Its only printing a portion of the image down the middle of the sheet. I'm also using 13x19 Paper. I included images of the Acrorip settings, printer and the printout sheets. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hey i converted it and it works great. i put the video on my youtube.
