- How to print thick paper or card with you Epson Eco Tank (ET2750) I love this printer. Over a year and tons of photo prints and text and the ink reserve is still 2/3 full!! Does a fantastic job printing photos too!! Its finally printer LOVE.
Thank you, I just bought this printer for making greeting cards using heavy card stock. Your directions will make it so much easier.
Thank you so much! I have an ET-3760. At first I could not get the density setting to change but I found a setting that I unchecked. It was “let Windows control your printer.” After unchecking that setting I was able to change the density and printed the card stock perfectly. Thank you again!
Thank you so much! I wasn't able to print on enveloppes without having a big mess of ink at the beginning, and with this trick it worked so well!!
You're a lifesaver! After 4hrs of frustration...I was about to return this printer until I found your video 🙇
OMG! Thanks for making my day by taking time to share this info!!! LOVE my ET-4750 and it just got even better!
Yesssss a huge thank you from Downunder. I love my printer too, only new one month old but oh no couldn’t use my 350gsm cardstock... you’ve just saved so much angst! Love this video and humongous thank you from a fellow crafter .. Shaz in Oz. ❤️❤️❤️🤗👌
I can't thank you enough for your video!! My warranty ran out a couple of DAYS ago and I couldn't get technical support ~ you are truly my salvation today!! Working from home without my "techies" around is challenging some days. You did a great job with your video ~ THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for sharing this video, it has been a HUGE help!
I am just commenting to help others that may have had the same issue as me as it still didn't work for me by simply changing the settings. I have to load 4 sheets of card into my printer for it to not reject it and also (not sure why) once it has accepted the top sheet, I have to unload the rest, add another sheet and add it back in behind the sheet that is currently printing. A little bit of a pain in the backside but it's saved me a fortune in wedding invites!
For context, I am using 300gsm White Linen card from Hobby Craft (UK) and my printer is ET-2750
I can't take credit for this work around - I followed some advice from another user on here, but the comment was buried in another thread so thought I would share again.
I want to thank you for posting this. I was ready to take my ET 2750 to the dump and look for another printer. My wife needs to print on cardstock and she is calling me her hero even when I did nothing. You deserve to be the hero here. Thanks again.
I honesty can't thank you enough! You have saved me hundreds and hundreds of pounds and I am so grateful. I have an Epson ET 8550 and the rear feed paper slot prints slightly out each time so it was useless. Trying to get Epson to admit there is a design fault has been impossible. I was ready to give up and buy another printer. Then I found you and this post. You are an angel. Thank you so so much, the printer now prints on my 300gsm card from the rear paper feeder (so much easier than having to take the back apart to use the rear feed paper slot) and it prints straight everytime. I dont know how to show you how grateful I am. You're amazing. Thank you very, very, very much!!
a HUMUNGOUS big thank you for this - I bought this printer to use for my greeting card business and my main cardstock - silk 350gsm will not feed without a lot of fighting and wasted ink and smearing. now, its not as much of a struggle anymore
Thank you sooooo much for this video! I was going crazy trying to figure out how to print on cardstock and your video made it crystal clear.
THANK YOU!!!! I was about to look into a new printer bc i need to do a lot of printing on cardstock and could not get the paper to feed. Your advice is the only one that worked!! Thank you so very much for sharing this!!! xo
Thank you so much. I just bought the Epson ET 2720 and the whole purpose I bought it for was to print on 110lb Cardstock for my small business. I tried to print for 1st time and it would Not even try to pull the Cardstock through and Instant Devestation hit me. I looked everywhere to try to find a fix before sending this printer back....and your video is the ONLY information on how to fix this anywhere!!! I can't thank you enough. I followed your instructions step by step & it worked like a charm. Thank you!!!
Thank you SO MUCH for posting this simple video! I got an Epson Ecotank 3760 and love it but was so disappointed that it couldn't print on cardstock as I use cardstock A LOT. This simple trick made my life so much smoother. It worked perfectly!
Mine was working well previously, and then it wasn't. I didn't know what the density function controlled and I had changed it back to zero. I can't believe this is so simple. The fact that you took the time to explain it is very much appreciated. Thank you for saving my new greeting card business ! Update: I also put a few sheets of regular paper behind the thick piece and push down very gently when it starts to feed into the printer.
Wow - what a clever solution. Thanks for sharing!!!
You’re a goddess! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!! My ET 2720 wasn’t taking my watercolor paper and you helped me so much!
Thank you! I searched for a long time to find how to use the rear paper tray on my Epson 7840.
Thank you so much! I am not tech savvy and spent about an hour today trying to figure this out!
Thank you Thank you Thank you! I have been trying to find info on how to do this and you are the only one who has posted the steps. I love my Epson eco tank! Mine are the ET 2720. One is for sublimation and the other for regular printing. I have had one for almost 3 years and have only had to refill the black. I topped up the other colours while I was at it. Thanks again!
Hello! I’ve got the same printer as you but can’t figure it out! The steps that is on this video is different to my laptop - did it work for you?
GODSEND!!! You’re a genius. For the ones that don’t see the 3 tabs, you’ll need to download the most current drivers from the sites. It took me a while but I was able to get it to work on my ET 2760.
How did you do it I have same printer I can’t print on card stock ?
i can not figure out on my 2760
Oh my bacon!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
The amount of projects I've scraped because I couldn't get my ET-3760 to print 110 cardstock, now I can.
Thank you so much for this. Your prints look amazing!
Thank you so much!!! This is the only helpful video I saw that actually worked.
Thank you, that's Fantastic I have also been scratching my head trying to print on card with my ET 2850.
Like one of the other respondents I also have to put multiple sheets in but now it works great. Have a great Christmas 👍
Thank you so much for this video! We were able to print on a thick sticker paper after changing the settings as you've mentioned! This was the only solution that worked. :)
Thank you for this. I just got the new printer and I had a problem with cardstock. Awesome!
Wow! You are a genius! I was thinking I needed a new printer! 💖💖💖😃
Brilliant. Didn't think it would work on my little XP 540....but it does!! Just put through some really thick watercolor card which i haven't been able to use before. Thanks!!
I would back up your happiness with the ET-2750 as well.
For years, I've been using several of the PhotoStylus R2800 and the Artisan 50s. I Frankensteined them to use CISS systems, external waste ink tanks, bought end-of-life system re-setter codes, the works. Once I found the ET-2750, I couldn't believe Epson finally did the right thing: Affordable, large volume ink reservoirs, vs. those insanely expensive individual cartridges. Now I can buy ink for far less, replace (or clean) the waste ink holders, and clean the paper roller by removing a user-friendly back-panel. So many useful software settings for all kinds of paper as well. What's not to like?
And don't worry Epson, I'll still by more printers from you (instead of throwing the old ones out.) I see a 2nd or 3rd ET-2750 in my shop soon enough.
Perfect! Works for my ET 3760 was well. Been fighting with card stock for 2 years.
This helped SOOOOOO MUCH! Thank you! I have an Epson ET-2550 - older model, so the option locations were a little different. IT WORKED!!!!! Thanks again!
I have the Epson et 2550 where did you find the correct settings on the et 2550
I also have the ET-2550 and CANNOT FIND a paper thickness setting. Can you help???
Thank you so much for sharing these tips. It helped us so much and we were about to give up on printing cards at home. Wish you very happy holidays!
Thank you for making this video! I said out loud - I love this Girl!
More people should like this video. It is the best thing ever! Probably saved me from ruining my printer and now I can finally print all the things on cardstock and thick sticker paper that I want! Magic! Thank you!!!
absolute life saver thanks so much for uploading this
Thankyou so much what a difference really appreciate you putting this video up thankyou once again.
I could hug the stuffing out of you right now!!! Thank you, thank you! I have an Epson et-3710 and could not for the life of me figure out how to get the stinker to print 110 cardstock. The learning curve on this printer has been insane. You are amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this!
so did you get it to work with 110lb cardstock? i'm in the market to buy an inkjet printer and would love an epson ecotank if it can handle 110lb cardstock!
@@lc4095 HI Lily! I did. I ended up having to boost the density as high as it could go. I tried it on the settings that were suggested, but it would spit the first page out and THEN print on the second. It's a pretty good printer, the biggest frustration has been finding just the right settings for color. I found that going into preferences and into advanced settings, press custom, and then select ICM. That's given me great colors so far. But it took a while to figure that out. I do love the eco-tank as I've printed out tons of stickers and still haven't even gone through half the ink. It's saved me a bunch of money right there!
Lol, sorry for replying with a novel, but I hope that helps you a bit!
@@jbluna6381 OMG your comment saved me!!!! this video should be edited to include that on the 5-10 setting it still wont work but on the highest setting it did!!!!!! thank you so much!!!!!
@@julieely4602 So glad it helped!! I completely understand your frustration. What happened to the days when you just put something in the printer and it worked? Lol! Good luck on all you do!
@jbluna6381 wow you’ve helped a whole lot! Thank you SO much!!
❤💨
THANK YOU!! I contemplated just never trying to use cardstock again but you saved my life!
So glad it helped! I love this printer. This knowledge saved it from flying across the room .;)
@@makingamerrymess6532 Lol. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you SO much! I was looking for a fix to this problem to and I am so glad to have found you! Your Christmas cards look amazing! Great job!
I had to put my paper settings to ENVELOPE and push one piece through at a time. It prints much slower but does a good job all the same. Hope this helps!
🪄🖤✨💨
OhOHOh great to know! Thanks SO very very much. Haven’t yet tried it but wowwy wowwza most d e f i n a t e l y would come in handy! Hate to have to invest in a 3rd printer. [[[Already dried up the brand new laser printer (from lack of use) - did not c o n f o u n d i n g l y realize. Need to tackle in future, 🤞🏻it’ll print again {intended for Foiling techniques dang’it!}.]]] I’ve the Epson ET-2760 model. And truly have zero idea of anything much about it. I do believe that when first installing the ‘drivers’ must’ve selected the w r o n g one for downloading, out of sheer frustration! I’m just an Artist how do I know what I’ve yet to well learn! Uuuuuh … 😂 good grief won’t it be an absolute d r e a m m i e s t dream having such l u x u r y for running deliciously T H I C K i t t y - THICK cardstock AND any ole time we like??! Eeeeeeeee ❕DanceDANCEDance
I've been trying to find a printer that will do cardstock and I love everything about this printer including the cost but this is the first time I've seen that you can print cardstock on it. Thank you thank you thank you I'm going to go out and buy this printer today and give that a try.
Did you ever get it to print on cardstock? Mine refuses to print on 300gsm card
@@adwbriscoe no I did not so I ended up buying the Epson ecotank 8550. This is the best printer I have ever work with it is amazing. I bought the 8550 because it will print 13 x 17. The Epson 8500 does everything the same except just up to 8.5 x 11.
Thank you so much for this video. I can finally use my thick..The printer was driving me nuts.
Thank you! I am getting 3760 soon and can’t wait to use it!!
Thanks a million!!! Worked for me. However, I'm using pretty thick cardstock so, I had to assist paper to feeder and it accepted and printed it with no issues.
I just got an Epson ET2803 for Christmas and was really getting discouraged I was unable to print borderless and then I couldn't even get the cardstock to print. Ran across your video and BAM you had the answer for the cardstock issue.....I thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
I'm having the same problem with my 2803. Are you able to print on heavy cardstock now?
Thank you SO Much i was tearing my hair out trying to do this and it works!!! I have ET-2850 and found 5 didnt work but 7 did!!! You are a legend!
How can you adjust the number? I have the 2850 and I can’t find where I can change this anywhere in my settings. 😤
I have MacBook
I have the 2850 and it didn't work for me. What type of paper did you choose?
Did you find any fix for Mac ?
I just ordered a 2750…thank you sooo much. I couldn’t get my other Epson ecotank to print out 110 # paper!
Thank you for posting this! Really helped!
Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed to know before purchasing. I'm a watercolor artist so it's very important to me to print on thick paper.
I'm trying to print on watercolor right now. It keeps spitting the paper through.
@Dada Poopoo I found that only about 90-100 lb paper is easily compatable & I can only load I sheet at a time. I haven't been comfortable taking a chance with loading anything thicker. I haven't had a chance to do any water proofing tests with the ink.
@@nilawarriorprincessI’ve heard the 3850 model is the one that can handle thick cardstock paper
@Way2go926 Thanks! I think that's the one I ended up purchasing & it does take thin (100g) watercolor paper well. Plus, the ink is indeed waterproof. I printed a coloring page on watercolor paper & had no issues with the printer's ink bleeding.
You are a life saver!!!! Thank you so much for the video!
Thank you SO MUCH!!! You just saved me long hours of hunting this down. I'm new to Epson printers and was in a bit of a panic. No now!!! As a side note, mine is a 2760 so this info isn't exclusive to a 2750. Thanks again!
Your Epson 2760 print cardstock?
This has been really useful, thank you so much.
Which printer do you use and higher grammage ?
You are the BEST!!! Thank you! exactly what I needed!
What wonderful advice - thank you X
worked on my ET - 2850 thanks.
omg thank you! I love mine too ut hated it didn't take cardstock, I tried your trick - I had to do 10% for it to work, thank you!
My wife makes 3D cards on some heavy cardstock and she really wanted to know about the Ecotank's ability to handle that type of paper. Your video helped convince us to purchase it for that very reason. Thank you for making this informative video!
I hope she loves it!!
Hi, how did it go with the printer, please?
@@lidia1407 The printer turned out to be an ideal purchase. I would highly recommend it!
Epson should learn from this. Thanks for the vid
Oh tyvm I have been searching for how to use thick paper (cardstock) on my et 4750 when I was just about to give up after searching all over the net.
Thank you so much for sharing. I'll try it and see if it works 🙏
Oh my thank you thank you thank you, I was sooo disappointed in my new printer that I couldn’t print cards ii am going try this today🙏
Thank you so much for posting this. I was going out of my mind when the Epson EcoTank 2760 wouldn't even print it's own Presentation MATTE paper...
Little tip for you...if you save these settings and create a preset for them, you won't have to keep moving them back an forth. You can just select the preset option for your christmas cards whenever you want to use it. It will save the density if you change it.
LoveLOVELovely!
🙏🏻💨
This was awesome! Thank you so much!
So very helpful. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for sharing this. God bless!
thank you so much it works for a 2720 also
Your video was so helpful
Super helpful, thank you!
Oh my goodness you are a life saver 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much! You are awesome!
I've had this printer for over two years and LOVE it too! Thanks so much for your help, I'm trying to print on 120 lb cardstock to make tags and journaling cards for Christmas junk journals and found your video! Great info! Thanks again !!!
Did you try it and it worked? I am trying to see if its worth buying because my paper is 110lbs
Yes me too! im looking for a printer that prints 110lbs!
I can't find a density option on Macbook 😭
I used both 100 abd 110 lb paper.
We’re you ever able to find it? I have a MacBook and can’t. 🥺
Thank you so much for this video! Could you please do a video on how to print on envelopes with the ET-2750?
yes, worked a dream! thank you
thank you so much, it helps a lot
Awesome! You're the Beast (Best)!
It does help me!!! Thanks
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was about to throw my printer out the nearest window. You've saved my sanity.
thank you for this ... I was actually looking for the maximum thickness that Epson ET 2760 can have .... this works too. I will try a 120lb weight in a couple of days
Hi Mark!! Just wondering if you had any luck printing on 120lb paperweight! I'm about to order some but I'm not sure if that is too think or not!
@@itsLunaloo Theres a way that you can force it ... but you have to crease the paper and push the paper a bit to help feed (cant remember but i think i saw a video on it). That turns out to be too much work for me and I opted to buy a ET16500 which does the job flawlessly.
Thanks for the info!!
Agggggghhhhhh!👀👀👀👀👀❤❤❤❤❤🌼🌼🌼🥳 IT WORKED! IT WORKED!. THANK YOU SOOOO MICH
Omg I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so so so so much
I have the et - 2750 and print on cardstock up to 235gsm (at the moment). My printer just wouldn't accept it! Thanks for your video. I tried it but it didn't work for me 😭. I intensively Googled and tried lots of different ways. Changing my setting to matte (not plain paper) worked for me and i didnt have to change any other settings!
I have 100lb and mine is still not working. I change to matte like you and nothing. It's so frustrating!
@@maceykinard9646 have you tried matt brochure paper (if you have that setting)
@@maceykinard9646 I was having the same problem (only I was trying a thick cardstock) and it kept making that awful banging noise and then would just spit the card straight back out again but I asked a friend for help and she said to try different amounts of card in the paper tray at a time until the printer recognised it as I was only using 1 sheet of card at a time, so I did that this morning and it worked, it feeds it through ok when I have 4 or 5 but no more and no less. Try that and see if that works for you. Hope it helps :)
Thank you and I’m happy to find your video… I started junk journal and I have the same printer you have and wanted to know if I can print card stock for my journals.
I LOVE YOUUUUUU💗💗💗💗💗
Awesome!!! Thank you so much!!!!
Thank you, now I can buy the epson 3830
Great video, problem solved thanks
Thank you! You’re a lifesaver!! Lol
Thank you so much!!!!
Thank you so very much!
Omg thank u so much 😁 u save me♥️
THANK YOU 💎
Wonderin to get ET-2712 but need to print cards too and now where could not find the info how heavy can the printable be.
Thank you, I thought that I'd just wasted my $ on card stock! It works, yay
Hi, thank you for this video! I have a similar Epson model. I was wondering where did you load the paper?
Thank you it helped.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much.
Thank you
what pound paper are you using, I have 110lb but im not sure how it will do if I buy one.
