Dry Smudge Test Instant Ink

Dry Smudge Test Instant Ink

For this one I printed off a picture on HP All-in-One Printing Paper on both printers using normal print quality. I ran my figures across each one as they came out of the printer to see if the ink smudged at all. Now I had a bit of a game with the HP printer getting the picture to print off in A4 size and I did find the dialogue boxes a bit less instinctive than the Epson, but I managed to get the print I wanted for both in the end. The HP picture came out feeling dry and quality is much sharper than the Epson one. Neither smudged to the touch, but the Epson paper felt damp as it came out and took a few moments to dry. I think it had the potential for smudging and certainly I felt I had to be a bit more careful handling that print because of the dampness.

Water Test

I printed off two pictures using the same paper, one from each picture. Then I deliberately split water on them and rubbed them dry with a paper towel. The ink ran a bit in both cases, but you can see from the picture (and the paper towels) that there was significantly more ink running and smudging on the Epson rather than the HP.
