HELLO,
I'm reaching out for some advice on my trusty old Epson L210 printer, which has been serving me well for over 8+ years. However, I've recently encountered an issue with the magenta ink not working properly, despite buying original ink and performing multiple cleaning cycles.
The problem started when I tried to print in color after years of only using black ink. The other colors seem to be working fine, but the magenta ink just won't cooperate. I've tried flushing the ink multiple times, but it's not making a difference. In fact, the ink pad has become over-saturated and ink has started spilling out, wasting a significant amount of ink.
At this point, I'm torn between repairing the printer and buying a new one. I've heard that repairing the printer can be a cost-effective option, but I'm not sure if it's worth the hassle.
If I do decide to buy a new printer, I'm looking for something that can handle my printing needs, I've set a budget of around 8-12k.
So, I'd love to hear from you guys - have you encountered similar issues with your printers? Do you have any suggestions for repairing the magenta ink issue? Or, if I do decide to buy a new printer, what are some good options in my budget?
Here are some requirements I'm looking for in a new printer:
