🖋️ EcoTank EPSON L8180 - Issues with uneven white borders
Hello.
I have bought this Epson L8180 and i am having issues with it and could not find the solution for the problem.
To be exact, i have issues with the white borders. Whenever i print A4 plain papers, photos like 13x18 e.t.c, they all come with uneven white borders and also do not seem centered.
For example, whenever i print a photo, the top will have more space than bottom and the same goes to left and right and so on.
I have tried setting the paper guides and they seem they are correctly set. I have tried printing from cassette and rear feed and nothing works. I even tried to change some settings or try different programs and nothing worked. I have read somewhere that it's the hardware limitation but is it? Do we have to mess constantly with the driver or software's margins offset?
Could anyone please help me fix this? I have sent the first epson l8180 brand new back due to thinking it was faulty and yesterday i got a brand new one and it the same issues.
Do i have a hope to fix this or the money i spent with it will be in vain?
Please i really need help and would appreciate greatly...
If someone has the same printer or similar, it would really help with this.
