5.0 out of 5 stars This printer is amazing!!
Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2024
Although its not the best quality printer, I would rate it a mid range in quality printer. I still bought it because of all of the positive reviews and the fact that the ink lasts a long time. I was so tired of buying the ink cartridges. I will have to say so far I love the print quality. This printer prints very nicely. The color is great and it does exactly what I need it to do. It's also soooo easy to add the ink. It is a clean process, and it is cleverly designed so that the ink doesn't spill. Pretty cool actually. I use this copier to print, scan, and copy. It has served its purpose. The only thing I don't like about it is that the paper is fed in to the back and you have to look at the paper sticking up in the back on its tray. In addition, the tray that the paper comes out on is a little weirdly shaped to catch the papers as well. I would recommend this printer to others for sure. I just can't figure out how to use the print option from my phone, but that's something I'll keep trying to figure out.

The printer arrived in a renewed box, with all the proper tape on all of the pieces. Ink tanks were clean. I got this one because it has a one-year return, and it was 60 bucks cheaper. This is everything I have needed in a printer. I needed automatic 2 sided printing. Check. I needed good connectivity across multiple platforms ( windows 7, 11, xp, and linux, and Iphone, android.) Check. I wanted a permanent print head, but most of all, I wanted to be able to use refillable ink. Check. The bottles that come with it seem large, but so are the individual 4 tanks. I've had some printers that were 4 or 5 colors. Three has been easier, and the picture quality is just fine. When it comes time to refill the ink tanks, I'll simply pour my ink into these bottles, and refill. Screw the "genuine" epson ink. Do you really think that there is a difference? I don't . I have been drilling and refilling ink cartridges for 30 years, and have used the same ink in 3 different brands with no problem. I love that you can do that with this printer...even easier than buying special cartridges to fool the system, or bypassing it in hidden settings on the printer (by law they have to have a setting to shut off the proprietary ink cartridges. Set-up was pretty easy. I discarded the instructions. I had great first time luck filling the tanks, letting it charge the ink, and using the keypad on the front of the printer to connect it to my network first. Then, when I downloaded the software for my computer(s), The software found it easily. This way, was better than the way the software tells you to do it. Same with the phone app. Put the printer on your network first...then let everything find it. The epson app for my android is the first one that actually works with one click to print. Other reviewers have said that this thing paper jams a lot. So far, so good for me. I did have one jam so far. I use heavier weight paper, and I think one corner was bent as I was putting paper in it. This printer will hold a lot (150?) of paper. That's good, but if this thing starts jamming, it'll go back. I'll update if that happens

I bought this Epson ET-2850 to replace a self-bricked HP. Setup was straightforward, using my cell phone. I just followed the instructions and the printer set itself up, step by step. I like the ink tanks rather than overpriced cartridges. The ink bottles have clever keyed openings to ensure the right colors go into the right tanks, and valves to prevent spills. The tanks are translucent, providing a full time view of the ink levels without any stupid electronic confusion. Printing is straightforward and of adequate quality, with the caveat that glossy photo prints are of average sharpness and color. My only disappointment so far is the dark control panel. The panel is not backlit, so the ON switch isn't easy to find. Once you find it and press it, a bright blue circle lights up. The other buttons are unlit I'd prefer to have the switches all light up after the on switch is pressed, perhaps with a time delay turn-off. The teensie-weenie LCD display is cute but difficult to see without a magnifying glass. Other than the hard-to-see controls, my ET-2850 is doing what it's supposed to do: print. I haven't had a need to contact support, so I can't speak for their customer assistance. So far I'm pleased with the straightforward functionality. The printer is a reasonable size, reasonable price, with reasonable features, reasonable setup, hardwires straight to my router, and has a no BS ink supply. I can use a pen light to help find the controls.

The setup was easy. just follow the prompts and don't skip around. I didn't prefer setting it up with a phone but it worked. I have not had any connection issues with it other than a couple of times it has failed to "wake up" after long periods of non-use and it does not immediately print when I send a file, but simply pushing the "OK" button in the middle of the controls wakes it up and it proceeds to print right away. Regular documents print very quickly and the photos on glossy paper look amazing. The selectable automatic 2 sided printing works great and has saved me a lot of paper. I've had it for a few months now and printed quite a few papers and photos and the ink level has still not dropped at all. My old printer would have been halfway through a set of cartridges by now. I love this printer.
