New Printer



I am so excited to say that I finally got a new printer, a good one, too. I've had my on the Epson Stylus 1400 for a while now. I really wanted to save up money from my Etsy sales so I wouldn't have to dip into our savings account. So I knew I would have to save at least $300.00. Last weekend my family and I we're actually out shopping for some clothes for the boys when I we came across an Office Max. I thought maybe I'd just see how much it was at this store. To my surprise it was way less that I'd seen it anywhere else. It was on sale for $179.00! I knew I couldn't pass this one up. So, it came home with us.

Some of the things that I love about the Epson Stylus 1400:

1. Awesome print/color quality.

2. It prints thicker sheets of paper. Which means I can print business/calling cards from home now. Which means I can make them more affordable for my customers.

3. It's a wide format printer, which means I can print huge prints of my boys.

4. It's fast.

5. It's quiet.

I can't seem to stop finding things to print!

  2. I might just have to stop by Office Max this afternoon.

    I have the Epson Stylus 1380 which I've loved but to my dismay, shot out a random spring and has started making some ODD noises and misfeeding paper. Getting the 1400 at such a great price might be a wise thing to do (then I can always keep my old one as back-up) Ooo Ooo Ooo, and I have an Office Max gift card too!!!!

  3. So, needless to say, I'm utterly jealous! NO SALES anywhere to be found here on the East Coast! I just keep visiting Office Supply stores with my fingers crossed. Waaahhhh!

  4. Jen, I just ordered this printer the other day and it finally came in last night. So far, I love it!!! The creative juices are already flowing!!!

    For those that are interested in this printer, I found it at www.newegg.com for $179, and it only cost me $3.99 for shipping! I have purchased from this site before and have been completely happy. Happy Printing, everyone!

  5. YAHOOOO...I'm off to check it out RIGHT NOW!!!!
    You should've heard the Gosh Awful noises my printer was making last night. My hubby thinks I'm sabotaging it just so I have an excuse to get the new one!

  6. How exciting that you got a new printer! I know the feeling of "less than great" office supplies - nothing worse! Glad to see someone gets as stoked about new gadgets as me :)

  7. I've been looking for a good deal on the Epson 1400 myself. Do you know if it'll print on 110lb card stock? My email is jummy79 @gmail.com if you have a moment to email me back.

    Many thanks!

  8. We use that printer and we love it! We also have a epson stylus 2100 and i think it´s even better because the quality it's superior and it's water proof however it's not as resistent as the 1400 (for the second time we have to fix it) anyway, great choice! oh by the way, LOVE the blog!
