A new 'best printer' to recommend? Epson P20500 [P20570] and other Epson/Canon printers expected 

Lovely thank you Keith … I’m still good with my Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-300, maybe I will think about it only if size is smaller.

What's the best camera? What's the best car? What's the best printer? What's the best lens? The one you already have, that you have with you.

I look forward to your review and experiments with the Epson P20500. It is fun to see what possibilities one could have with an unlimited budget.

It certainly is a big beast of a thing, perhaps a nice Phase One XT to go with it. Early Christmas present Keith ?

hi,this is yogesh from Imperio Images, I am already having this one. We are the first one to get this in India.

Always fun to dream. Thanks

i suddenly feel like hooking an IV line from all those 1.2 litre inks to my P900... unfortunately i'd need to sell my neighbors house to afford a set... the P20000 at 700ml/cartidge is $321 canadian, so that'd place the 1.2 litres somewhere around $500 .. "not bad" .. but i do appreciate you answering what is "the best" :)

Interesting if this new ink pack system will prevent the occasional ink cartridge errors on the P9000/P7000/p5000... assuming itll be passed on to the smaller units in some way.

Good job, Keith. I follow your channel. Very instructive. I see you are announcing some new printers and I'm not sure which one I should buy or wait for a new one. Please advise. My intention is to often print (and rarely sell) calendars (large and small format), posters, postcards, greeting cards. Everything should be printed on paper that can be written by hand with a ballpoint pen. Some works will need photos taken with a 24MP and some with a 45MP camera - do you suggest a 17'' or 24'' printer. My budget starts from P900 - Pro1000 upwards... Any advice is welcome. Thank you in advance. P.S. Keep it up.

If you have the opportunity to test this Epson P20500 printer, try loading the paper in particular. I have a P20000 and it's very difficult to use the roll ends, especially on the 60 inch canvas rolls. When there are about 24 inches left and you don't want to throw them away, the P20000 starts loading, then detects the end of the paper and refuses to load it. In this case, I turn the canvas 90° and try to feed it in like a 24-inch roll, but it's very difficult to align it correctly and you often have to try several times to get it right. I'd like to know if the paper loading has been improved. I'd also be interested to know how the paper leaving the printer is handled. Nowadays, I either use the rewinder or I collect it by hand, as the cloth receptacle is not practical in my opinion. In addition, the P20000 has one flaw that I don't think will be improved: the fragility of the prints and of the matt black in particular. I understand that the inks are the same... When you print in matt black with the P20000, you absolutely must not let the substrate come into contact with anything, otherwise it leaves a mark. It would be interesting to confirm this. One final point that interests me: ink collecting blocks, those big boxes containing sponges into which the ink you've paid a fortune for is poured each time you clean your head. Are we still using the same system? I get annoyed every time I have to throw away one of these boxes full of ink...

Thank you! Honestly there is no need for a new version of the Canon ipf-1000 Pro.

Good video Keith

Thanks.

Well I think we should buy two of those Epson P20500, one for matte paper, the other for gloss. Save faffing about changing those dang large and heavy rolls! :^D

Think that printer is really beautifull!

Hi, not to be rude but why from what I looked at on your channel you seem to cater for people who can afford to buy fancy (for want of a better word) printers, I have an Canon IX6850 (approx £180 lowest price) and as an amature when it comes to printing this I hope will suffice, however trying to find expert advice on printers in this price range is like trying to find the pot of gold, please can you look at printers in this price range and make a video for amateurs like myself? Thank you.

Hi Mr Cooper, was wondering between the Epson L6170 and the Canon Maxify GX2070, which do you think is better for photo printing? Both these printers are in the $400 range. There is almost zero reviews on the canon gx2070.

Hmmm, I followed an advice like that about "the best car", ended with a bus...

Hi, Whats the key difference between 20500, 20530 and 20570?

Same printhead as the P9500. 11.500€ in Germany

What would you recommend for me starting a printing company focusing on lenticular style size 12x16 and A4 or A5. Thank you Keith
