I always use Epson Printers. The reason I like Epsons so much, is because many of them (although not all) come with pigment inks, that are both waterproof and fade-proof, which makes it the perfect ink for crafting! This means your ink won't run or bleed, even when you apply something wet over top of it, like various types of glues, Mod Podge, etc. You can even tea stain over it!
My current printer is an Epson Workforce 1100, like the one you see above, it's a large format printer, that can be used with extra large paper, you can even print your own 12" x 12" scrapbook paper with it! This printer uses DuraBrite ink, if you don't need a printer that prints this big, you can always purchase a smaller one, that uses the same type of ink.
I hope that clears some things up! You can find this printer particular printer on Amazon.
Please Note: I was not paid to write this review, and I did not receive any free products from Epson. This is my own opinion. There are however Amazon Affiliate links in this post.


Thank you so much for this post Karen. I have been without a printer for some time, and I certainly have wondered what I should purchase in the future. This gives me a start of what to think about, and where to purchase one.:-D
ReplyDeleteThank you for this! I hate our printer and this one looks like it has all the features I want! I really appreciate the information here today!
ReplyDeleteThanks ladies! I'm glad you found this info useful!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this info. I didn't even realize inkjet printer ink could be waterproof. Won't be needing that laser printer on my wishlist now; I'll add yours there, instead.
ReplyDeleteAs always, you're a great teacher and resource. Thank you!
The Workforce 1100 is a great home printer for anyone trying to utilise vivid colours. The great thing about Epson cartridges is that they're really easy to find.
