As you may know, the Epson Stylus Pro 9900 that I use to print maps for the Transit Maps store has broken down. And not in a little way: the belt that drives the print head has snapped, and the print head itself finally needs to be replaced. After getting some estimates on repairs, I’ve decided that it actually makes more sense to get an entirely new unit, rather than refurbishing a printer that’s already more than a decade old – there’s no guarantee that something else won’t break immediately after these repairs!
Financially, it’s an unexpected but necessary expense if I want to continue making and printing maps like I do now, but it’s definitely something I love doing. While I can cover the cost with a little juggling of finances and payment plans, any assistance that you could offer – even just a few dollars – would be a massive help. If you’ve ever purchased a print, or read and enjoyed the blog, please consider making a small donation to my printer fund by using the form below – enter any amount that you’d like to give. All money received this way will go directly towards purchasing a new printer, an Epson SureColor P9000, the direct descendant of my 9900.
Thank you for your consideration!
