Epson WF-C8690 - using an all-in-one office printer to print pictures, cards and artwork

Is the Epson WF-C8690 A3+ All-in-one capable of far more than office printing and copying?
Can a larger office style printer produce satisfactory artwork and greeting card prints? Will a larger printer save you time and make it easier to increase your print volumes.
Keith looks at what the printer can do and how it performs with a variety of media types and sizes.

Thanks for this review, I'm watching it now. My Epson Artisan 1430 has been broken for a while, and my large bed scanner stopped working right, so this may be my next endeavor to save up for.

I was surprised at how good it could be, but it really needs good profiles to get the best out of it.
There is more detail and a list of papers I profiled in the main [written] review

@@KeithCooper thanks so much dude for all the info gathering, I'm gonna bookmark that! I'll still have to save up for a while, but I'm very much long-game focus when it comes to worthwhile equipment ^_^ take care
