My first printer also only had a black and one colour cartridges, but the one I have now has 6: black, yellow, dark and light magenta and dark and light cyan. The dark colours run out much faster, so it's great that I only need to replace one of them at a time. It's still expensive, though...!Ninjatoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16391169818197340373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4105238565614435013.post-57451312867252955802016-03-10T02:33:11.282+01:002016-03-10T02:33:11.282+01:00me too!

My thickest was about 250 and it went through without a hitch.<br /><br />I wish I would've sprung for a printer with four cartridges instead of only two, though. It sucks when all of the red is used up but the other coulours are fine.

Not so much for papercraft perhaps, but for me it would be useful to be able to print A3 sheets at home too. ;o) Thank you for your input!

I can feed 180gsm through it without complains. <br />Right now I can't afford a laser color, and Inkjet is a bit expensive/unreliable. Because of this, I usually print my models at local print shops, some let you bring your own paper; most don't don't have anything above 150gsm.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18392524154685497063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4105238565614435013.post-54031342428261543432016-03-07T14:47:43.545+01:002016-03-07T14:47:43.545+01:00I have Brother DCP-135C, I tend to use 170-180 g/m...I have Brother DCP-135C, I tend to use 170-180 g/m² whenever possible and don't recall any problems while printing on these.

It's been what I've been using for all my models for the last 3 or so years. I find that the ink cartridges last quite a while as well.Michaelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07259064704472461698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4105238565614435013.post-52894000188840448092016-03-06T10:51:11.174+01:002016-03-06T10:51:11.174+01:00Thank you for your input! ;o)Thank <em>you</em> for your input! ;o)Ninjatoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16391169818197340373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4105238565614435013.post-36348558911851853392016-03-06T10:46:29.914+01:002016-03-06T10:46:29.914+01:00Thank you for your input!
