I think there may be a special setting or adjustment you have to do, but it works. With my Epson, i have to make sure the paper's edge is straight, or the rollers won't pull it into the machine, but that's it. My guess is that the Epson is a better made machine, but as I said, I have no experience with the Brother. I've had the Epson for a couple of years, and use the epson inks too, not refilled ones, and had no problems so far.OkayComicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12417897805768811698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216471737489850841.post-69036204586668915912011-09-06T21:48:41.223-04:002011-09-06T21:48:41.223-04:00Thanks so much, Mr. Ordway.

For printing, I have an Epson Stylus Photo 1400, a wide format printer, to handle 2 ply strathmore paper. The scanner was purchased many years ago, as a refurbished machine, under 500 dollars. To replace it, it would cost a thousand at minimum, though. A smaller scanner is fine, you just need to patch two scans of a page together. As to the printer, it was maybe 230 dollars. Epson has some good deals in their factory refurbished section on their website. I know a few artists who use a Brother A3 large format printer/scanner combo, but I personally have no experience with that machine. It apparently can print on heavier stock, though.

I can't seem to find an affordable one that will print on two ply bristol.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13503669096903247249noreply@blogger.com
