Sorry I'll stop now... I sound like a fanboy or a salesman :)
lol, I'll have to run one off and take a photo....it could be me that's just being fussy.....it's very minimal of the fuzzyness, but i'd really like to see a crisp image!!

How crisp is the image on the actual paper before pressed?

Ok just had a look, if I'm honest it does look a little tiny bit fuzzy....so maybe that's my problem. I'm just doing two photos, they're very high res images, and are crystal clear on photo paper, so maybe this issue is within the limitations of the sub paper.......had a look on one bought a few years ago, and that seems to be the same. Like I say, maybe I'm being a little bit too fussy here.

sorry, but of a delay here!!

Here's the image, it doesn't show up much in the photo, but the photo was a very hi res image. I'm leaning towards the fact that I reduced the size so much being the reason for the fuzzyness!

Obviously it's not the big blobs on their faces!! but even though I own the photo, i don't think it's right to show them....but you should be able to see the fuzzy bits I hope!!

You may just be experiencing a bit of overspray. Seen that a lot on desktop Epson printers.
