I own 2 of the Epson C-84 printers and have had no problems at all with them. I restore photographs and do graphic design professionaly. I use Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator to regulate my colors before I print. You have to know your machine and what it will put out and then adjust your colors accordingly to compensate for any shortcomings it might have. With the proper experience and a trained eye, I do about 10 color prints a day and get them right every time. SOL ZELLER
