Epson - Expression Photo HD XP-15000 Wide-format Printer

Epson ET-16650 (16600 and 15000 also). Can print up to 13”x19” with 11”x17” border less. I have printed both 11” x 17” and 12” x 18” that made nice 8 1/2” x 11” text blocks for books. I have also printed on 13” x 19” art canvas that I used for book covers - full color. Very nice printer but it is pricey.

FWIW, I am happy with my epson XP-15000, a 6-color printer that can go up to 13x19". Lower printer and ink cost, and a pretty good starter printer for my own photos that I'd like to run at home. I still send out larger prints to a local shop, but this does a good job for quick, flexible and smaller prints.

I saved up and bought the Epson Expression XP 15000. It was not cheap but I’ve had it for nearly 5 years and it has been flawless. It prints up to 13x19” borderless (though sometimes this can be tricky) and I have printed hundreds and hundreds of archival quality prints with it. Also, epson’s line of professional media is widely regarded as excellent. Yes—it’s outside your budget but maybe save up? It’s such an awesome and reliable machine.

If you’re doing dark, saturated work, Epson tends to win every time. The EcoTank models are great for long-term ink costs, but if you want really punchy blacks, look at the Epson Photo line (like the XP-15000). The six-color system handles gradients and shadows way nicer than the basic CMYK setups. Canon is good too, but Canon blacks usually sit more “matte” unless you go into their pro line.

>Epson ET-8550 I would go with that. I have XP-15000, but I had to convert it to use 3rd party refillable ink cartridges because the ink was super expensive. Ink tank is the way to go. Make sure you print test sheets every few days if you aren't actively printing to prevent print head clogging.

I have an Epson xp15000 that I I am looking to sell if you want to get into printing without spending too much money.It does 13 x 19.

Printing my own photos from my own printer has been very rewarding. More than I thought it would. I only have a cheap consumer printer from Epson (xp-15000), but I have been very happy with the result. I like the process of trying out different papers, using the proper ICC profiles etc. When I started I assumed that the regular premium glossy paper from Epson was the way to go. Imagine my delight when I tried papers from Moab, Ilford and Hannemuhle, to name a few and the result I got from these. I have also started thinking about my images being print worthy or not. A lot of what I export out from Lightroom is decent enough to put on a local facebook group, or even on Bluesky. But, only a handful of these is what I deem to be print worthy, and that process has also been a delightful surprise. Most of my printing is still considered test prints in A4 format, but a few of these has been promoted to "production prints" is in a larger format that I frame and put up around the house Granted I am limited to the A3+ size, mounted on a cheap 40x50cm frame from Ikea. But I am not ruling out getting larger prints from my local print shop in the future. I would prefer printing it myself, but getting a A2 or larger printer would not make sense for a regular hobbyist like myself.

I have an Epson expression and it's fucking horrible do not get one. The biggest waste of money of anything I have ever bought.
