[QUOTE="VA1DER, post: 220640, member: 15186"] Keep in mind that if you intend to use dye sublimation ink that it won't look great for normal printouts. Printers converted to dye sub are intended to make printouts that are heat-pressed onto a substrate. The ink isn't really intended to be viewed just printed onto paper. The Epson WF-7710 does not have tanks. It uses quite small cartridges mounted on the print head. I have a WF-7720 (same printer as 7710 with an extra paper tray) and I like it for doing 13x19 posters on. Other than that it is not my favourite printer. It has several weaknesses: - It's document-feeder scanner is only only one sided. If you want to copy or scan double-sided pages, it first scans one side, then flips the page and scans the other side. This is pretty slow and prone to jams. - The printer itself is a bit slow - The cartridges are small and the printer goes through ink rapidly (it uses a lot on routine "cleaning"), which means you have to fill the ink often - The cartridges sit on the print head and the ink is drawn out of them into the head by gravity feed, which makes using a CISS with it fussy and can be unreliable ([URL='https://www.printerforums.net/threads/front-loading-ink-cartridges-vs-print-head-ink-cartridges-and-eco-tank.71589/'][U]see this thread[/U][/URL]). I would highly recommend a Brother. If you are looking for the print-size versatility of an WF-7710, then you might consider a Brother MFC-J6945DW. It will print on anything from 3x5 to 11x17. Does good photos. Has a double-sides scanner. And it uses large front-loading ink cartridges. You can get refillable cartridges for it too. [/QUOTE]
