i was reading through JSR post i think....liked the brother MFC-5890CN A3 printer...all in one printer(scanner ect) and you can use ciss refillable cartridges with it...lot easier to get into and fill than the epsons...

and this printer seems to have a better track record than the epsons for some reason !

thats that then..FINALLY..no more looking - this is it ....buying it this week coming so i cant change my bloody mind...again !

luv this forum but sometimes...lol...just when you think you are ready to buy something then....you find more info on something else

great forum with invaluable info
johnny...

Right then, we are looking at the brother printer that you have mentioned to print t-shirts. How are you getting on? Much the same, too much info, too much choice and hairpulling is occurring on a regular basis!!! Are you printing with pigment inks?
We have looked at laser, inkjet, chromoblast....... All too much but a decision has to be made..... Await your comments. Thanks

sorry m8 for not replying sooner....been really busy working on my store back end.

your gonna laugh here.....
the next day - i went and bought a printer....oh yes....

the epson b1100 ...changed my mind at the last minute lol....

more people have this printer and easier to get help if needed.......

also got a new epson stylus sx535wd wireless printer for other stuff..great little printer - all in one job...scanner / duplex copier/printer ect....recommended

Courage, bigj, courage! :biggrin:

Seriously, though, you've probably made the right choice. I wouldn't use anything other than Brother right now but unless you're ready to handle your own support matters, you should stick with Epson or Ricoh.

will be setting it up in next week or so just for my ordinary printing ( no sub ), and see how it performs....
If i like it, i might, just might, get another for sub printing and sell my epson b1100 to my m8....or keep it as a back up just in case...you never know !


THE WARRANTY - for £22 for 3yrs......anything buggers up, accidental, mishaps, blockage, you drop it...anything...take it back to store, with warranty paper, and they will replace it for a new one there and then at store - ...unlimited amount of times you can do this in 3 yrs !!!!.....not that your gonna rip the hole outta it..no reason to !

Is the warranty invalidated if you don't use genuine ink?

Sweet!!! I wish to put my paws on printer like this!!
If you have enough ink i would go for larger ones.

hi martin.....doesnt say anything about invalidated warranty if non genuine inks used.....ANY accidental / mishap(dropped) / malfuntion(blockage) ..anything !...the guy i know at store has this himself...and yes, its true..
i just couldnt refuse....and at the price well.....sold lol
i was gonna buy it instead of the epson b1100 anyway....
now i got i choice and some back up - either way !..SWEET ....
and anyway....its easy enough to slip in the set i have here with it BEFORE i had it in to shop if needed.
i wont be using the ink that came with it anyways
