Q: QuestionHow far away can the printer be located for it to work wirelessly. I have Spectrum 5G internet
Asked by eddieoh.
- A:Answer With my ET-2980 it appears to be about 10 feet with no obstructions between the printer and the SPECTRUM modem. Our home office is directly next to the living room where the modem is located which puts the printer about 10 feet away with a wall in between. Everything else in the office connects just fine, but this printer cannot maintain a connection which makes it kind of worthless.

Q: QuestionIs it photo quality?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Hello. The ET‑2980 uses a mix of dye and pigment‑based inks to produce sharp, vibrant photos. Keep in mind that print quality can vary based on the source image, your print settings, and the paper you choose. If high photo quality is your main priority, we recommend exploring models from our Expression Premium line. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

Q: QuestionWhat color format does this print in? (cmyk, rbg, etcetc) does it print well with sticker paper?
Asked by renee.
- A:Answer Hello renee. Most image editing apps use an RGB color workspace, and while the ET‑2980 receives RGB data from your computer, it prints using CMYK inks. The printer works well with standard inkjet‑compatible label sheets, like Epson Photo Quality Self‑adhesive Sheets. Inkjet sticker paper can also be used, though results may vary when using third‑party paper. For best performance, we recommend checking with the paper manufacturer to confirm compatibility with our printers. Regards, Kevin—The Epson Team.
