I suppose you've gone through the whole "check the cables, make sure
nothing's stuck, check for grilled cheese in the ink-wells" thing? (The one
I used, at least, was a thermal transfer printer. Very nice.)
I've done some of that, I'm planning on doing more in the next day or so.
This one, too, is a thermal-transfer printer...it's one that uses the wax ink
blocks. it produces beautiful, high-gloss prints when it's actually
working...
Otherwise, it's unfortunate that most
people/institutions don't have the
good taste to purchase such printers ;) I'd have liked to have more
exposure to them.
I agree...it's a great print process. I think it has much nicer looking
output then color laser, personally...more photo-like with the glossiness and
all :)
