I don’t think it matters, I’ve used refurbs and new/used. Only issue I’ve had was with the P800 paper tray on the refurb units recently. It’s all up to you though. 

 

I have one for sale, XP 15000- new refurb with 1 year Epson warranty. $375 shipped. Doesn’t include oem ink, but can include a set of refillable ink carts WITHOUT chips( needs to be made Chipless anyway). Still wrapped from Epson. 
 

it’s a current gen printer, so I’m sure you’ll be able to find out though, unlike me and my P400’s. Lol. 

Thanks a lot good sir, I would take the one u got for sale but I’m only using my PayPal Credit for now😄, still gotta figure out if I wanna use a ciss or refillable carts also

It’s up to you, the 15000 works, but is new to the game and has quirks. For low volume printing, it would work fine given your technically inclined. 

the L1800 is a tried and tested printer, quite a few have them. 
 

the p400 is another great option for lower volume users, even high volume users who don’t want to deal with ink settling issues ( white ink is your enemy) then the p800/p600 for people who will print a lot. 
 

there are others, older machines. The p400/p600/p800 all read full inks always, the 15000 doesn’t and needs reset. 
 

personally I roll print and use the p400, and have been testing the 15000 for a few weeks now. 15000 works great, but I also know what I’m doing. It does have random quirks that the others do not have. 
 

 

 

Thanks for your honest reply! Do you suggest a brand new printer to convert or a used one would do? I have someone selling me a xp 15000 for $300 used! But I can feel this printer is gonna be sold out everywhere in a couple months, I don’t wanna mess up the one I got currently for my other crafts 😋🤟🏼

Hi everyone I just joined this amazing forum! I currently own an epson XP 15000 but I use it only for stickers and regular inkjet transfers, I also have a sublimation printer that use for face masks and neck gaiters, WF 7510 oldie but goodie, when I started this side hustle I had no idea what I was gonna do, I got the xp 15000 and some transfer papers, loved my prints but once I pressed into my garments everything changed, the feel was awful! Wash tests are great tho, but If I wanna sell good quality products ( I’m more into t-shirts now), I need some quality prints, (sublimation is wonderful but again, limited color garments), I really like my black tees also got some sublimation vinyl (easy subli), but it takes time and again the feel to touch is a little bit heavy, I tried the DTF transfers and ohh boy, really like the full color capability, the feel, wash test is great, one of my customers suggested me to go for it since I made him some tees with the DTF transfers, sorry for my long story 😂, so my question is should I buy another xp 15000 to convert? Or should try with a different model? New? Used? Sorry if this is not the right topic to ask!
