Hello to all. Well, as soon as I get off work I'm running (yes running!) to Target ...my only concern is...can we really adapt this printer to edible ink??? is there only one place to buy the edible ink? do you also have to buy a special program to manipulate your prints??

I also have a problem with my comp because it's really old! so....I guess I have to buy a new computer to go with the printer, huh?

Ok, thank you to all for this information, it's awesome!!!

I have the canon and I popped in the edible ink. But what Iâm doing is I have two printers, regular office printer and now the edible printer. Kopykake ink, sheets and free sofware as long as you buy their sheets. So I make my picture and print on my regual office printer to see whatâs it going to look like and make sure itâs the right size then print it out on the edible printer. Yeah I have to switch printers to do this. Iâve used the Kopykake software and played around with Microsoft Paint.
  Iâve only used printed out one sheet so far but did a lot of tests so iâm not experienced in this. What I didnât like about KOPYKAKE was that you can only select the generic happy birthday.
Does anyone know how I can add to it?? Like the personâs name. I couldnât get it to do that. So What I did was add the words in MS paint and save it then open it in the KOPYKAKE software with the words already in it.

Thank you for the info Bsalto maybe some of the experts can help you with your question.

So, you said you have two printers so, is that means you have keep plugging/unplugging printers as you need them?

I plug in the printer cable into the printer I am using at that time I'm playing with the pictures so I don't use up the edible ink. But i'm guessing someone can just add regular paper to the edible printer paper to print out a test page. I guess it really doesn't matter. It's $50 for my office printer ink and $50 for the edible in without shipping.

well I guess I will be on a return run. I bought the Epson 7400 at Office Max last week for $59.99 so I will get the other from target. I have already ordered my edible ink and received it, but have yet to open it... does anyone know if they take unopened ink back for a return?

I ordered the wrong ink anyway, and spoke with Mr. Rudy at KK and he told me that the ink for the CX7400 is the same for the 7450 it was made specifically for Target. Called my local target and they are going to give me a raincheck... I can return my incorrect ink and get the right ink Nice ... saved some green!

I called Target and they are out so I'm going to go and pick up the raincheck instead. Thanks for posting this.

Does anyone know if there's a way to get a rain check for an online purchase? They're out of stock and our Target doesn't open until October!

What size frosting sheets work the best with this printer? What sheets are the most versatile in getting the most out of a sheet of frosting?
Does anyone have a reccomendation?
Also have anyone run into a "paper jam" so to speak with the frosting sheets? Does it ruin the printer having that frosting all over the machine?I just want to know what to expect and anyone who has one I would love to hear your success and failure stories to have more insight.

JUST BROUGHT MY CX7450, 29.99 @ TARGET!!! CAN'T GET NO BETTER THEN THAT! CAN'T WAIT TO TRY IT! THANKS AGAIN CAMMIE (CLEVER CONFECTIONS) FOR THE PRINTER INFO.

i am so excited to play with this new toy when it gets here.

Yes Cammie is the reason I went with the Epson last yr when I got mine. She had such great luck with hers.

Thank you to all for all you great input. I am going to Target this afternoon to look for the printer or the raincheck!

Hurry hurry! I think the sale ends today since it was in their weekly flier!

Thank you! Thank you! I got my raincheck yesterday!!!!

Im not a computer geek but Im pretty sure you can have two printers at the same time. The only thing you would have to do is click on the right printer icon in the print menu. You might have to get a special cable to do the two but when I worked in an office anyone could print to one printer or you could select on that was at your desk, etc. So I know there is a way to do it. It would be a lot easier than unplugging it every time.
Which edible ink cartridge do you buy for the C7450? When I saw it in Target at $39.99 I went to the Kopycake site and didnt see that one listed.

Check out page 1 of this thread where Cammie talks about using the CX7400 cartridges.

Thank you, just called Target have one left and I have one foot out the door

Thanks! I got the last one in our Target!! Whoohoo!

I got two rainchecks when I was there the other day. They are good til 10/06. Let me know if you want one.

Hello to all, I got my printer at Target for $29.99 and I also called Kopykat and yes!! they do sell the edible ink for that printer, wohoooo!!!
This is a toy I always wanted to have and I just got it
Thank you all for your help and input1
BTW...I'm not a professional baker nor I sell cakes...I do this as a hobby and I love it

Ok, I'm pissed. I have the canon, put it together last weekend, printed out a half sheet then as a tip I read I took out the cartridges and placed them side up. One week later I'm trying to print my husband a pic for his birthday cake of my boys and one of the colors are clogged. I've been messing with it for about an hour already. I didn't by the steamer, but I guess I'll have to do that now. One week, geeze. Anybody out ther give advice for the canon ip3500 not to clog?

Okay, forgive me if I'm missing something here, but this printer is just a regular office like printer that could use regular ink and regular paper??? You just use sugar sheets and edible ink instead???

Did I miss the sale? I will be going tomorrow to Target and see if I see one....

Hello to all, according to Rudy at Kopykat the cartridge ink you should order for this Epson CX7450 printer is: TO695SAT-4...I just placed my order and can't wait to get it
Good luck to all!

Congrats to all of the new owners!
