Q: What is the difference between this printer and the 3850?
A: - If you print a lot of double-sided documents, the ET-3950’s duplex copying is a real time-saver. - The faster print speeds and higher ink yields make the ET-3950 more efficient for high-volume use. - The Wi-Fi 5 support improves connectivity and speed, especially in modern networks.
A: Hello. The ET-3950 is designed to work with Epson 502 Ink Bottles. You can purchase genuine Epson 502 Ink Bottles directly from Best Buy. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
A: Hello Coco7. Paper can only be loaded through the paper cassette, which holds approximately 250 sheets of plain paper. Please be aware that the actual capacity may vary depending on the paper size and type. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
Q: This printer does not do auto-double scanning, but can it double-side individually?
A: Hello. The ET-3950 supports automatic two-sided printing, copying, and scanning. You can load the original into the document feeder to scan both sides automatically. If you prefer to scan one side of a double-sided document, the option is available under the scan settings. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
Q: If you set this printer up for wireless printing where does the document go after you scan it?
A: Hello. You can use the printer wirelessly with a computer, smartphone, or tablet. When scanning, you will be able to select your file destination through the Epson ScanSmart software or Epson Smart Panel App, depending on the device that you are using. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
Q: Can 8 1/2 by 11 thin card stock (like greeting cards) be used in the epson 3950
A: Yes. I do all my greeting cards on my printer.
A: Yes full black and colors are included. It apparently lasts very long too. Seems to be holding up for me after several photo prints.
Q: Is this printer Windows 10 compatible?
A: Yes. I have it hooked up to our in-home network and it works fine. I have Windows 10 on my present computer and my wife's runs Windows 11. It accepts commands from both with no problem.

Epsion 3950 EcoTank AIO Color Inkjet Printer
This home office all-in-one HP-3950 inkjet printer offers very easy setup (including wireless networking), fast 2-sided Color/BW printing, quiet and smooth operation, and print jobs that look excellent! Tray storage of 250 pages means less refill time...Nice! Filling the 4-color ink tanks with the included ink bottles couldn't be easier!! Due to "no cartridges", at a 6000 page print count this refillable ink tank cost will be 95% Less than my previous color laser jet printer cartridge consumption, AMAZING!!

so far so good
Fairly easy to set up although it took several minutes, longer than I expected. Had to use my smartphone to do it, which I did not anticipate. So far I have been able to print both via wifi from my phone and hard wire from my pc.
