I am interested in printing my own edible images. I have an older HP ink jet printer (Desk Jet 970 CXI) that is sitting on a shelf in my basement collecting dust. Is this something I can clean up and use for edible images or would I need to go out and purchase something new? Thanks!
as far as I know only canon and epson printers can be used for edible image printing.
The other option is buying a printer package from a place like www.kopykake.com
you can also check out their web site to see a list of canon and epson models that are usable for edible image printing.
just a note also, the printer must be new or never used. you should not use a printer that has been used already with regular ink.
I have the canon IP6000D and it works great..
Hope this helps
I went to the epson web site and bought a refurbished (with a warranty)printer for $69.00 with free shipping. You can go to kopykake website and there is a list of printers that their ink cartridges will use. I then purchased a set of ink cartridges and paper and downloaded free software on kopykake website and was in business. I think it is the most affordable way to go.
I heard that the Epson stylus C88 is getting discontinued, I had a friend find one for $45. I am on the lookout for one myself. Then at kopycake.com you can purchase the cartriges for about $70 and the frosting sheets are about $30. I am waiting to find a good deal on a printer that can accomodate the ediable ink.
