❣️2022.11.26 UPDATE
After trying out 4” x 6” 370gsm paper, we went ahead to try a 300gsm A4 paper. UNFORTUNATELY, the paper did not go through 😢 Our conclusion is that a 4” x 6” paper is the largest size for a 300gsm to go through. However, you may experience slight ‘teeth marks’ using it.
✏️ Summary:
- Prints well on 250gsm paper (thickest). Anything thicker you may want to proceed with caution.
- Ensure that the WIFI for your printer and your laptop/phone is the same in order to connect and print.
- Sometimes the Epson Smart Panel App gives us the ‘Unable to Find Device’ issue but its not a big concern to us as we usually use laptop to print instead.
- Ink Levels are only half way through the mark after using it for 2 shop updates.
- We have printed on sticker papers, vinyl sticker papers and normal papers (70gsm to 370gsm). Please note that the materials you have may result in different printing outcomes from us.
Hope this summary helps!😊
Hi may I know the normal paper you mean is art paper or ivory paper? And wonder if 260gsm is ok for this printer? Have you tried on both type of paper before? 🙏 sorry too many question
Hi! May I know if this supports borderless printing?
Waaah, thank you so much for sharing these important details, very helpful and appreciated ❤🤍💕.
Updating us on this is very helpful!
Hi! Are you using pigment ink? I need to know if it's worth the risk? I hope you can help
So far the best review i have ever watched! Complete and very helpful details. All the questions I have in mind were answered while reading you're post pinned in the comment section. Thank you so much for this one! Very nice and informative review! 👏👏👏
really glad it was able to give a clearer idea of what this printer can do 🤗!
THANK YOU SO MUCH BY FAR THE BEST REVIEW I'VE WATCHED FOR PRINTERS. I can't decide which model to get but your review helped me a lot
we’re so happy that this helped you!!🥹
Omg fellow SG artist!! Thanks for making this video :'D Actually useful 💕

Thank you for this very helpful video ❤
Thank you for making this review!! it is very helpfull
So glad it helped ❤️
Thanks for sharing this! 🥰😍
Thank you from Indonesia, very helpful
Good review. Still deciding which model but with WIFI of course. So useful 😊
thank you! hope you have a clearer idea on which to get after our review 😊
the best part is the 2000 years later.... loved it
‼️UPDATE: the printer is able to print on a 4x6 inch, 370gsm art card beautifully✨ please note that we have not tried bulk printing yet so we are unsure what would be the long term side effects. We have only tried twice so far 🤣
Were there no visible vertical marks on the paper after?
Nope there wasn’t for this size! We will be planning to try a bigger size (300gsm) in our upcoming shop update 🙂 you can check out our Instagram for real time updates @shinyu_co ✨
Hello! May I ask what settings did u use to be able to feed the paper through? I cant seem to get my 4x6 250gsm through the feeder
I would love to know about the settings for it too. :)
hey which would you recommed epson l3250 or hp smart tank 515?
Hello, I'm glad I came across your channel. With which printer model was the product you showed as "old version" printed in the 4:33 section of the video?
For that old version, it temporarily used a Canon Image Runner Advance c3525i laser printer. We definitely love the smooth printed finish look that it gives but the colours were not what we were looking for 🥲 hope this clarifies!
Merhaba. Eğer aldıysan hangi yazıcıyı aldın ve önerir misin?
Ty.. very nice review 🥺
Thank you! 😊
Hello! i just want to ask, have you tried the Epson Matte heavy weight photo paper in your printer? im planning to buy it but i want to make sure its compatible. thank youu
Hi, may I know if this printer can proceed with 250gsm pearl paper prints? Thanks so much!:)
Thank you for ur lovely and comprehensive review! What was the previous printer you used? Would you recommend the older one or this Epson3250 tank?
Hihi >v< The previous printer was bought back in 2013/2014 and it was a HP officejet 4630 e-all-in-one printer. The printer head was a little damaged as well. Replacement was feasible but expensive. So it’s a little difficult to compare between them as one was already faulty.
In terms of maintenance, this Epson provides more affordable ink refills. However, I don’t think the printer head is replaceable 🙂
Hope this helps!
Can i set it up on a mobile device as well as the Windows computer and can print from both wirelessly?
Hi. Do you have a problem with your silhoutte cameo didnt cut correctly? If possible i would like to know how to fix it. Cause it always didnt cut properly at the same place. I hope you could do a tutorial for that. Tq 😊
How long does it take to print photo on A4 with high quality? my old brother J 105 takes like 5 min lol
The video is sooo helpful! Thank you so much!
May I know if the prints are waterproof or not?
glad it helped! ⋆˚✿˖° unfortunately, the prints we did aren't waterproof
@@shinyu_co is it because of the papers or the ink itself?
@@kaitheseashellits a variety of factors such as the ink, printer specs, papers used! sometimes small businesses would add a layer of laminate to allow the product to be more water resistant or they would outsource and leave it to the professional prints to do the waterproof coating ⋆。𖦹°‧★ you might want to give this a read (: www.cartridgesdirect.com.au/blog/which-printer-ink-is-waterproof
How fast does it print normal black white text? I got an HP printer but had to return it bc it would take forever to print simple text
Which paper need to use? For me with normal A4 paper pictures became dark
I know this is late but can you use vellum paper in this unit?
Hey , is there any way I can the printer to print borderless on letter size paper ?
Thank you for the video. I want to ask: does it print heavy cardstock paper like 280 or 300 gsm?
🥰 hello! Based on the specifications provided by Epson, it supports Epson premium glossy paper, which is 256gsm, to be printed. We have not tried printing papers above 160gsm yet, but will be attempting to do so in our next shop update >///< if you’re not in a rush to purchase a printer, you may look out for our instastory update regarding this matter near end May!
Hope this clarifies \(╹◡╹)/
@@shinyu_co Thanks a lot for the answer, looking forward to it❤️
@@shinyu_co hello what maximum gsm for l3250
ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ Based on the specifications provided by Epson, it supports Epson premium glossy paper, which is 256gsm, to be printed. We have not tried printing papers above 160gsm yet, but will be attempting to do so in our next shop update ☺️
@@shinyu_co thanks for the answer
Cute review video!! Can I know, can this printer print 3R 230gsm matte photo paper?
thank you! ˗ˋˏ ♡ ˎˊ˗ as 3R is smaller than 4R, i dont think there will be any issues (: thickness seems fine too
Hi, can you tell me what "''plain paper : high quality" did you use in the video? thanks 😊
Hello, in the video, the paper we used include sticker papers (80gsm) as well as thicker paper (160gsm). Each settings have different saturation levels and their print out quality, depending on the final product look you want to achieve. Hope this clarifies \( ^ω^ )/
Hi! Ty for your review. Can I ask where you edit pictures?
Hello! If you’re referring to the thumbnail photo, we edit our photos through this Chinese app called Butter Cam (黄油相机) ^^
Hi,,can i ask if its possible to use sticker paper directly to print or there is a setting for that before using a sticker paper?
Hello! Yes, as long as your sticker paper is inkjet compatible, it should be fine ・₊✧ when printing, the paper type selected might result in different saturation level too. Do trial and error especially if your material is not like typical white paper.
Thanks a lot very cute and informative video. i just got mine and, honestly, i'm quite disappointed. it seems slow and quality of colour printing is not what i expected. i'll test it a bit more to see if it's a keeper or not. regards!!
Oh nooo I’m so sorry to hear that :( hopefully the quality improves once u adjusted the settings e.g paper source and printing quality to high, it might change! 😊
thank you
Hello,Shinyu. Whats the highedt dpi resolution when scanning colored images? Also can it print sticker papers? if you are familiat with the L1118, csn you compare? Thanks very much
Hello Lex 🌷accordingly to the specs sheet, highest dpi when scanning is 1200DPI x 2400DPI. So far we hvnt use much of the scanning feature, hence it’s difficult to advise you on its results ☹️ we’re not familiar with L1118 too
Thank you, Shinyu. I'm looking for scanner so I can send precise and hi-res images to my work abroad. But I need a versatile one since I want to start crafting with my Cameo 4 as well. Nice contents btw.
@@lexa5051 Ahh I see! Ive seen a few other creators using scanner but so far no in-depth discussion on the ones they used. Hope you'll be able to find the right scanner soon! and Thank you ヾ(@^∇^@)ノ
What's the difference between this and L3251 one
Do 4 ink printers print as good as 6 ink?
Hello, are the inks you used a pigmented one or a dye ink ? Thank you!❤
According to the data sheet provided by Epson, the ink technology for this model is Dye Ink 🌷
L3250 / L3251
Max paper thickness -256 GSM
thank youu.. Lv from Sri lanka
Glad that it was useful!😊
Hi, have you tried sticker paper on your printer? Thank you.
Hello! Yes our main use of the printer is to print on matte sticker paper 😌 works well!
If you wanna print double-sided, you gotta manually insert the paper again, right?
Yes! it would be a hassle if you are looking to print large amount of double sided items ~ *0*~ Nonetheless, there’s clear instruction to how you can turn the paper 👍🏻 and feeding through the rear tray makes easier compared to front tray. Hope this clarifies ☺️
I have issues with printing double side ,I don’t how to change the settings I try so May way , any can experience how to change that please
Can use transparent papers on this printer? Thank you for your great video 🌱
we just purchased some and will be testing them soon☺️ let you know again!
Hi, did you remove the shark teeth from the printer to avoid marks on thicker papers?
Hiii we believe that we have answered you on our Instagram ☺️ the answer is no. There has not been any mark on our thickest paper printed (250gsm). We have not tried thicker papers yet.
@@shinyu_co yes thank you!! this comment was 10 days ago and again thank u for replying!
Hello, thanks for the video 🥰🥺 so cute. Does it print on 300 gsm?
Hi there 👋🏻 we have yet got to test on 300gsm 🥹 definitely will update once we have tested! So far the thickness we printed is 250gsm and it works well!
Hello pwede po ba sa size ng bondpaper dito is long 8.5 * 13. Ang size ng paper
Would you recommend this over brother printers? Thanks!
Unfortunately we don’t have any experience with Brother printers to make a comparison :(
hi! I would just like to ask where did you get your laptop stand? thank you! ^^
hello! I’ve got my laptop stand in shopee 😆shp.ee/pm98e9k ; looks like this 💛
also, I just wanna ask if the epson L3250 is still worth buying or should I purchase the L3550? tysm ^^
Please can you tell what is the program that you used to print ??
We are currently using Silhouette Studio as it is linked to our Silhouette Portrait 3 machine for sticker cutting purpose. It provides precise dimensions when printed, unlike PowerPoint which resizes our artwork once printed 😅 You can download the silhouette studio software even if you don’t own a machine! 💯
Ini bagus ga ya buat print sticker?
May i know what paper do you use for your sticker ?
Hello! We are currently using white matte sticker paper (brand: Online Label) 🌷♡₊˚
where did you buy it?and how much?thanks! new subs here
We bought it from our local departmental store Harvey Norman, and it was about 269 SGD during a promotion 🥰 thanks for the sub!
Hi! It's me again 😁 Do you have any recommended photo paper for this printer?
Hellooo unfortunately we have not explored much photo paper on our end, so there’s no recommendation :( hope you’ll understand!
Have you tried using photo paper yet? Just bought this printer recently
Did your printer leave pizza wheel marks on the paper? I just bought it yesterday. I tried to print on 230gsm photo paper and 150gsm sticker paper, both have pizza wheel marks all over the paper😭
Hello there! Yes those wheel marks.. initially we didn’t notice them on our 250gsm paper but it’s starting to be more visible now 🥲 not very sure how to remove them when printing on thicker paper 😭
Hallo.. Can it print on sticker papers? If yes on what setting?
Yes you can! so far we used the settings ‘plain paper, high quality’ because that’s the colour saturation level we wanted on our material. Do note that different papers result in different results, so do have trial and error to figure out what’s best for you 😊
Awesome thankyou 💓
instead of printing what ı send to ıt by mac it prints out encoding. How can I change that?
Hello! So sorry, we don’t think we are able to help you with this >
Amazing video! Do you think it could print on A4 sticky papers (125gsm)?
Thankyou so much!🧡 yes it should be able to ☺️
I used to use an Epson ET-2550 ruclips.net/user/postUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 , an early model of the ink tank style. It worked well, but had one nuisance that drove me up the wall; if you didn't put it in high quality print mode you'd get a streak across the page. I'm happy to say I have yet to see this with this printer. The print quality has been fantastic so far, the set up was super easy. All in all I'm very happy with this printer.
Hello how about now..is the printer still ok..have you had any problem with it so far? Thank you
yes it is still working fine ☺️
@@shinyu_co Thank you
Which type of papers used in this printer for printing?
Hello there! I believe there’s a variety of papers that can be used for this printer. So far we have tried plain copier paper, matte sticker paper, vinyl paper and thick artcard ✨
Hello, is this okay for waterproof stickers?
Hii definitely printed well on our waterproof ones 🙂 however if water is running on the same spot for more than 1min, water mark stain can be observed when dried ☀️ we still prefer getting waterproof stickers via outsource.
Can we print sticker papers.. photo papers.. cards.. by using this printer?
yes it’s possible but please take note of the paper thickness 😀 printer doesn’t go through feeder well for A4 250gsm and above.
Can this print in glossy photo paper
Hello! Yes I’ve tried printing on some glossy photo paper and they came out just fine!😌
This printer can print for transparent stickers?
Hello! Unfortunately we have not tried.. sorry!
Hello :) Does this support holographic sticker printing?
hello! :) we never tried before, so we’re not too sure 😅 sorry!
May long po ba yan
Suggest good printer USB vs wireless
We don’t have enough experience to suggest, so sorry!🙏🏻
What is the ink?
Dye Ink? Pigment? Sublimation?
According to the data sheet provided by Epson, the ink technology for this model is Dye Ink 🌷
Hello ask ko lng yung photo copying nya is ok sa legal size may mga legal size kasi na mas medyo malaki sa legal ang size ng paper
Hello! If the translator is correct, the specification sheet mentioned that the maximum copy size is only A4 or Letter (8.5inch x 14inch). Hope this helps (:
Possible to print using waterproof sticker?
as long as it’s inkjet sticker paper, it should be able to print 😀 however please take note that the waterproof-ness depends on the paper material too. Some small businesses would stick another layer of laminate to ensure it’s printed image is sealed up properly 😊 hope this explains!
hello, do you use pigment ink?
According to the data sheet provided by Epson, the ink technology for this model is Dye Ink 🌷We have not tried pigment ink before, sorry!
Hello! What is the maximum grammage paper?
Hello! Check out our latest pinned comment for our explanation ❤
Is it ok to print in legal paper? Thank you!
hi! these are the sizes that are provided in its specifications:
Legal (8.5 x 14"), Indian-Legal (215 x 345 mm), 8.5 x 13", Letter, A4,
16K (195 x 270 mm), B5, A5, B6, A6, Hagaki (100 x 148 mm), 5 x 7", 5 x 8",
4 x 6", Envelopes: #10, DL, C6
hope this helps!⋆˚✿˖°
Hi is it able to print borderless?
yes, up to 4R only (:
Can I ask if it can connect to iphone?
Yes it can! 😊 it’s available for download on the App Store. You got to make sure that your device is connected to the same wifi as your printer haha otherwise you will not be able to detect the device via app. Hope this clarifies (:
how about borderless printing a4?
borderless printing is only supported up to 4R (:
Can i ask can i use photo sticker paper,
we’ve tried printing on photo paper (non sticker type) as well as sticker paper (normal paper finish), and both are fine! So I believe photo sticker paper should be fine! 🥰
Do you use pigment ink?
According to the data sheet provided by Epson, the ink technology for this model is Dye Ink 🌷 we have not used pigment ink before, sorry!
In july I bought Epson Ecotank L3250. Yesterday I tried to print two paper sheets. I pressed print, but paper sheets coming without any text. Ink is full. What can be the problem. Also I tried to scan magazine first page. Printer scan but with pink horizontal lines. What is the problem? How could I solve this problem?
Clean the head of the printer
@@IMRAN_KHAN_804.0 some videos? How could I do that?
@@kursaikursai2968 will guide you through a video
@@kursaikursai2968 or go to search on RUclips "How to clean Epson L3250 printer head through mobile/without mobile or PC"
may i ask if its still working until now? i need to to know :c
Yes it is! No far no technical issues faced and performing great 😊
How to print in Epson L3250 when the wifi is out?
Use the USB cable provided and it should work just fine 👍🏻
Can this model print multiple pages around 100pages at once? :)
Yeah but printer will take some short break in between 😃
Printer gets tired after printing many papers at once :D
We’ve never tried before, so sorry! Based on the specs, i do think it’s possible (:
Is this printer still working fine? 😊
Yep!☺️
What Price you bought this, and I am confused with Hp516 what is your opinion. Will it connect my 5GHz band for wifi and how is the quality of colour when u print on A4?? Pls answer
Hello! We bought us around 269 SGD during a promotion sales at our retail store (^ν^). It does connect to wifi and the quality of colour printed in A4 is satisfactory to our standard. You may be see it look like towards the end of the video as we did a test print too 🥰
what would happen to this printer if you have no wifi connection?
device supports USB connection too (:
Have you tried printing borderless?
yup, i did some 4R borderless print on photo papers. Works well!
How's the printer right now?
Printer is still doing a good job! Love how there’s still quite plenty of ink left despite the amount we have printed (huge improvement from our faulty HP printer previously) \^^/
The only issue is the connectivity ~ can be a little frustrating when our laptop/phone app just could not connect with the printer .. 😀 important to make sure that both devices are connected to the same wifi👍🏻
@@shinyu_co hello, I use wifi direct and it's easy for me because we don't have internet wifi connection in our home.
I'm gonna buy this one insha'Allah 😇😇😇
Im from brazil
Hellooo!! ☺️
How about card stocks?
Check out our latest pinned message for details ✨
after 10 month it's worth a buy ? this printer ?
With the budget we had, this printer definitely met our expectations (: it’s sufficient to deliver decent printing quality for our small sticker/artprint business. The ink levels doesn’t run out quick and the refills are also affordable.
@@shinyu_co Thank you for this reply god bless you
Hi! Update on the printer pls 🫶
Hi can this Print Borderless on Lettersize?
Hii 👋🏻 borderless printing is only up to 4R size
@@shinyu_co Thank you
Kaya po bang mag Borderless Printing nyan sa Short Bond Paper?
sorry we don’t speak Tagalog but we translated what you meant via google translate 😅 borderless printing is only supported up to 4R size~
@@shinyu_co sorry for that hahaha thank you! ❤️
May I ask if it's still working good until now? 😅
yes it is! (:
Do you recommend this printer for a small business?
if you’re just starting out, I think it’s a good choice! We chose this mainly because of our budget and it was able to deliver our requirements too 🙂 the only down side is that it’s not ideal for printing on thick card stock 🥲
update about this printer??
Surviving well and still only half way through our ink levels despite 3 shop updates ☺️ compared to our old HP printer, this printer is definitely cost-efficient!
@@shinyu_co thank you!
