Thoughts on the Epson S9170

[YL6699]

Hi everyone!

The Epson S9170 has been out for a short while now. I am wondering what everyone's experience is with this machine. We have a few S80 printers at our shop that is reaching end of life and we are debating on replacing it with the newer S9170 or the tried and true S80.

I am always reluctant to get a new generation model. We had horrible experiences with the S70 when it came out, and was happy to see that the S80 corrected many of its flaws.

I would be very appreciative if everyone can share their experience with this newer model, good or bad.

Thank you!

That chasis/print engine/printhead has been out for a while now, probably close to 2 years. Its solid, don't think there are any crazy problems that would pop up

I believe it’s end user head replacement as well

Yes same as on the R5070 , the head is only like $700 too but it's important thing to note that you have to be on a service plan to get this head pricing
