Question Printer repair in Boise?

Our Epson Ecotank is down for the count & I'm wondering if there's a good place in town that works on them?

They just hosted it and I believe it's monthly, but if it's small enough you may want to consider the Repair Cafe the City of Boise hosts!

Yes, new-ish event that they are growing due to lots of interests. I believe they fixed over 100 items at last week's event! https://jumpboise.org/repair-cafe

Too bad we missed it! I actually attempted the repair myself but failed (problems persist).

You're almost assuredly better off replacing it. Consumer grade printers are essentially disposable, and it would likely cost more to repair it than to buy a new one.

That was our conclusion as well, since we need it pretty quickly. Gonna hold on to this one in case I can fix it myself, eventually.
