    Thank you! I also invested on a ecotank because I got tired of buying ink cartridges every month! I am now interested in making my own stickers for my students but was afraid that my ecotank would not work as well as an inkjet printer.

      I know I had the same experience spending so much on ink cartridges😅😅
      There is nothing to worry about! Get the right kind of sticker paper(get the sticker papers for inkjet printer). I would recommend glossy if you want stickers to be vibrant. Also if you want longer lasting sticker, try vinyl sticker paper. Have fun!😄

      Hi Jen, did you try printing vinyl sticker sheets on your Epson ET-2750? What settings have you worked on? Please let me know. I have the same printer but it won’t work with vinyl sheets! I am sad, because I was very excited to print my own stickers at home. The sheet got smudged first, and got stuck in my other attempt. When I selected normal paper, the colours were completely different.

Also do you have a video on the settings you use for stickers or basic necessities for a sticker business? I have a small art business & wanted to start adding stickers! Sorry, one last question. What all are you using in the video? I use procreate.

      Hi Ali, thanks for dropping by 😊💖 As for the ink, I'm so happy with the printer.

I don't have that specific video for print setting, but I'll make sure to make one in near future.
      I really love procreate, I heard a lot of really good review. The tablet I use an android tablet (Galaxy tab 7), so I had to use something else, which is medibang paint.

    Such a nice aesthetic video! I recently bought the same printer and was wondering if you knew how to get bright vibrant colors when printing on sticker paper. I use glossy vinyl paper and when I print my stickers out the black ink smudges and refuses to dry. I saw you recommend prem glossy so I gave it a try and the black didn't smear that time but the colors were nowhere near as bright or nice looking.

    • @illustbymj
      @illustbymj  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh yay so glad you got the same printer!😊
      I think the quality of prints really depends the sticker paper. Try to test print on other kinds of sticker papers if you can. Also I saw other artists put another layer of clear film on top of the sticker to make it waterproof, I think this will make the sticker look more vibrant. I haven't tried it myself, but hope this will work for you.

    Hi! I have the same printer and I've been trying to print stickers out. At first, the paper went in but smudged a little at the top. It's not a big deal for me as it's just for my own personal use. However, recently the paper starts to get jammed in there and makes my printer do a terrible sound. I checked to make sure it wasn't my printer causing this, but my printer works fine with plain paper. Do you think it has to do with the paper itself? I use some viny paper from amazon that is popular. Has that happened to you with vinyl paper, and do you recommend certain paper or brands? I've been trying to do my own research online, but unfortunately, there isn't that much information about this printer online when it comes to stickers.

    • @illustbymj
      @illustbymj  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi there, thanks so much for asking. Recently I had a same issue with the printer (smudged cover, making a loud noise). I think the issue is with borderless printing. After not using this setting mine is working fine.
      Also I did some google search, and found it could be ink that were on inside/near printing area, and after cleaning the issue was solved. Someone also said that paper is bending slightly inside the printer and that is why there are smudges on the corner.

      Hi there, I haven't counted how many stickers I can print in one refill. But to think of it, it really depends on how much ink you need to use on your print. If the design needs more ink it will use more ink.
      Hope this helps.

    Hi there! Just wondering if you were able to print a nice pastel yellow. I've been trying and it just looks golden rod or brown/greenish. Tried rgb and cmyk and all kinds of settings. Best was plain/ bright paper on high quality, but it looked pixelated. My file was at 400 dpi...should I try redrawing on higher res? Idk...Oh and was trying to print on matte vinyl paper. When I tried premium and semi gloss setting the yellow looked golden or brown/greenish....I even printed a test print of as many shades of yellow I could draw on procreate...

    • @illustbymj
      @illustbymj  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi! Thanks for asking. I had a similar problem when printing yellow. It tends to print more golden/ darker shade of yellow. Did you try to resize image when printing?
      Try to keep your image in your original size when printing. Sometimes when size of original image is small(even if your setting is 400 dpi)but when you try to print the image print app fills up the whole page with the image.
      Also I find it better to print on matt vinyl rather than glossy vinyl. Maybe it's just my personal preference😊
      Hope this was helpful. I'll try to print pastel yellow, and if I succeed will let you know!💛

    • @nopocky4kitty
      @nopocky4kitty 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was printing on matte paper and actually the yellow illustration was the smallest...like half an inch in size. The setting that printed truest to the illustration was plain/bright paper on the highest adjusted setting. Although the color came out great, but there I can clearly see the pixel dots...Then I tried to redraw it at 1200 dpi, but I can still see the grainy pixels... what type of vinyl paper do you use? Maybe I'll try using a different matte sticker paper...?

    • @nopocky4kitty
      @nopocky4kitty 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also, to add. For me, I noticed printing on glossy paper got rid of the pixels. But I couldn't for the life of me print a pastel or even a lemon yellow... tried Epson Vibrant? And RGB setting as well...RGB worked the best...if you do find a way, please let me know. That would be a life saver 🙏🙏

Sometimes it makes really loud noise and I can't find a fix for it. 2. Sometimes edge of prints smudges. I think its caused by ink left on the inside of the printer. The only solution I found was not to use full bleed printing.

    Hello I have an epson and I was wondering if you could give me advice. I'm trying to print out my stickers but it keeps printing super dull and dark compared to how it's on my screen. I did convert it to CMYK so I'm not sure if it's because it's too complex for it to handle or if something is wrong with my settings.

    • @illustbymj
      @illustbymj  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for asking! What you see on the screen is almost always so different from when it's printed. You did a great job converting your img to cmyk. Now what you need to do is to keep adjusting your image to make your print perfect.
      Also your paper really makes a difference. Try to test print on better quality paper(photo quality inkjet paper, semingliss or matt). Usually high quality paper makes the print more vibrant and bright.
      Good luck, and let me know if you have more questions!😊💖

      Good question! I never thought about figuring out how much each page cost me😅 but if you are serious about your business, I guess you have to find it out at some point.
      I sell my stickers $1-5 depending on size/quality of paper.
      This doesn't really answer your question but just letting you know how much I charge for my stickers.

    • @illustbymj
      @illustbymj  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello, thanks for the questions😊
      I think the speed issue might be because the internet connection isn't good or your image is too big. If it's printing is slow all the time, try connecting the printer with your computer(if you have one) and print from there.
      Are you printing your own image(photo or drawing?) Make sure you make the image in high image resolution(300dpi or more). Also change the settings (paper options + high quality).
      With dark images I'd say you can change the image brightness, you can do this on any image editing app, or even in your phone.(go to gallery> select a picture > edit > brightness)
      Hope you find this helpful, let me know if you have more questions😄💖

      Hi July. A common issue why the pictures on the screen look different than printed is that they are most likely in the RGB colour mode while the printer works on CMYK mode. When the RGB picture is converted to CMYK, many colours looses brightness and look dull, darker. If you have access to Photoshop I would advise to convert pictures to CMYK profile and correct the brightness, saturation etc before printing. Hope it helps.
