Reducing Print Costs on the Epson 11880

There are a few ways to reduce your printing costs while using the Epson 11880 inkjet printer:

When printing nozzle check patterns, use a page of letter or legal sized paper (found in the top drawer under the viewing booth) instead of your (more costly) roll paper. Remember to create a separate usage entry in the log book with the paper type as “own” so you won’t be billed for the paper usage.

If that nozzle check pattern shows gaps in one or two colours, the 11880 now has an option to do single colour head cleanings. To access this in the printer control panel, select Menu > Maintenance > Clean Each Color. A single colour cleaning uses approximately a third of the ink of a regular cleaning, so only use this if you have gaps in one or two colours.

If you have your own tips for saving printing costs, post them in the comments below.

Reactivating Display Profiles

This past fall the lab updated our workstations to new LaCie 24″ displays. The new displays have a bug causing profiles to deactivate, giving the screen a washed out and blue look. This seems to happen particularly when switching display sources and occasionally when powering on. Our temporary fix is to reactivate the profile through the Blue Eye Pro PE software.

After opening the software, click the “Select profile” option:

Make sure the most recent profile is selected, then click activate:

The process takes about 30 seconds. Please note, after activating a profile it will take a minute or two for the display to settle into a neutral look again.
