Not what you're thinking, I bet. It was delivered on Thursday and I still haven't been able to get Hercules and Samson to come over and move it into the house! I am anxious to try it, and will have to wait until tomorrow. Arrh!

...and just wait until you try lifting the printer with finesse, and placing it neatly on the stand delicately and squarely, so two miniscule bolts can be threaded through.
Wait! It gets better---try doing it with a 9900. ;D
Who in the hell designed that printer stand?

Luckily, once you are over the heavy lifting (pun intended), the 7900 prints magnificently.
Better check out whether any local surgeons are offering half-price specials for hernia repairs though.

Things have improved - no bolts, just 2 sturdy pegs on the stand that fit into holes on the printer.

LOL! That's exactly why I am hiring guys to do it.

Can top you with trying to set up my 11880!!!
I went to the local homeless shelter and managed to get 3 guys and had them wait for the truck to arrive. Of course, the truck was running late and one guy had to head off to his afternoon job so that left one young skinny guy, one older guy and my broken down old friend and broken down old me.
At over 400 lbs for the printer, I was sure I could HEAR the hernias popping!!
We put an 80 lb bag of sand on the stand to keep it from moving while we got the printer on it, then had to nudge it so the 4 screws would seat into place.
Prints nicely, tho it seems to be laying down too much ink. Haven't found where to adjust it yet. Any ideas??

In the driver, changing the media settings should change the amount of ink laid down. You can also try adjusting color density under paper configuration....
And of course, some media types/brands can simply handle higher ink loads...
