Epson Discproducer Autoprinter Ink Issue with New Ink Epson released in late 2025
Hello, I recently purchased an Epson Discproducer Autoprinter PP-100AP and far as I know all Epson Discproducer Autoprinters regardless if they burn or not take the same ink. Well I was about 90-95% happy with the printer when I compared the printed to my Epson ET-8500 I was using. But something seemed a bit off, but I accepted it was just because of the different print head or maybe a setting (yes I did try every setting I could adjust and didn't resolve my initial impression). Anyway I was using the original (older ink part numbers) ink it came with and then purchased more and the new ink was the new part numbers that Epson has recently changed and once I put all those ink cartridges in the discs it printed were useless as the color went completely out of whack! So I printed solid test colors and Pink came out looking more purple, red came or orange, blue, yellow, green and black all came out OK.
So I have contacted the place I purchased it from and Epson and they are all clueless. So I am wondering is anyone out there that has one of these printers has used the new ink with the part number with a "7" in them? Example Black is now PJIC7(K), Magenta is PJIC7(M) and so one and has had the same issue? Or any insight on if Epson changed the ink as well or what's going on. Thanks!
