[QUOTE="cebolitos, post: 233682, member: 29680"] I have an old HP DeskJet 2700 series printer, and it was doing a reasonably good job, but not great. So I decided to go ahead and buy a new printer. I ended up getting an Epson ET-2811, but the print quality of the new printer is worse than my older one. It’s mostly the small details that bother me. When printing small text (which is not actual text, but embedded inside a PNG image, so it’s not editable text), the older printer (HP) would print it fine. I could read it clearly, and it had good contrast and definition. However, with the Epson ET-2811, the details are much worse. The text is not printed correctly, some parts of the letters are missing, and it also looks like there is a lack of contrast. I'm printing using exactly the same file and resolutions, directly from InDesign, using the same workflow I used with the older printer. I select the highest quality options available in the printer settings, but I still can’t achieve the print quality I was expecting. I’m now considering returning the printer, as I’ve only had it for four days and I’m definitely not happy with the results. The page contains a lot of colors and is fully filled, so every time I try to print it, it uses a lot of ink, but the results are still not good. What makes it worse. I'm spending ink every time I try to print something. Could anyone help me with this? To be honest, it’s quite frustrating. I bought a brand-new printer, spent a lot of time adjusting the settings, and still can’t get an acceptable result, or at least something comparable to my previous printer. [/QUOTE]
