Epson P-800 display screen

[Canonshooternb]

I have purchased the Epson p-800 printer and love it with the exception of one annoyance.    The lcd display on the printer is very slow to respond and slightly difficult to work with IMHO.   When I change paper sizes or format seeps to be when I have the issues
Is anyone else experiencing similar issues ?   And how did you resolve it.


Thanks Paul

It doesn't take long to get frustrated that Epson didn't spend a couple $ more on the touch screen.  It was next to impossible for me to use my finger to adjust the paper size.  My solution was to use the eraser end of a pencil.  It sounds weird but it works much better than my finger.

Could Epson have put less 'energy' in to this machine update?

Not sure what you're implying.  Overall, I'm very happy with the printer.  The touch screen is a very minor annoyance.

Thanks I will try using the eraser next time.  I have tried using a stylus with sporadic results

Well, I've not experienced this at all. The key is to use a light touch instead of a heavy punch. The harder you punch the LCD the less likely you will get what you want in terms of selections. I have no problems as long as I touch lightly...YMM !
