Legal Disclaimers
- 1. Actual savings and costs will vary considerably based on print tasks, print volumes and usage conditions. Savings and cost per ISO page are based on the cost of replacement ink bottles and the cost of enough standard cartridges to achieve the total page yields of the bottles using the MSRP (USD) and yields for Epson standard-capacity ink cartridges for similarly featured Epson consumer inkjet printers as of March 2024.
- 2. Individual cartridges estimate based on print yields of an included or replacement set of black and color ink bottles as compared to Epson standard-capacity ink cartridges for similarly featured printers as of March 2024.
- 3. Part of the ink from the included bottles is used for initial setup; yields are lower than those of replacement ink bottles. Replacement and included ink bottle yields based on the ISO/IEC 24712 pattern with Epson’s methodology. Actual ink yields will vary considerably for reasons including images printed, print settings, temperature and humidity. Yields may be lower when printing infrequently or predominantly with one ink color. All ink colors are used for printing and printer maintenance

Q: QuestionCan I use sublimation ink with this printer? If not what's a good suggestion.(1 answer)
A: AnswerHi CRob. The Epson ET-3830 was not designed for dye-sublimation printing nor the use of non-genuine Epson ink cartridges. Using sublimation ink in this printer could damage the print head and impact warranty coverage. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.Answered by Epson
- A: AnswerHi CKLakeForest, The EcoTank ET-3830 can print on Epson Photo Quality Self Adhesive paper, so it is possible. We do not test every third-party sticker paper so we cannot guarantee print quality. Please make sure any sticker paper you try is ink jet compatible. Regards, Mark - The Epson Team.

A: AnswerYes there is a paper trayAnswered by Steve
- A: AnswerHi Elitemember, Use the front panel display on your EcoTank ET-3830 to change the Paper Setup Auto Display to off. That setting is under General Settings > Printer Settings > Paper Source Settings. Regards, Mark - The Epson Team.

Q: QuestionDoes the Epson ET-3830 handle printing on card stock well?(2 answers)
A: AnswerHi Cheryl, We do not test card stock with the EcoTank ET-3830, so cannot guarantee print quality. The heaviest Epson paper for the printer is 44 lb. Premium Presentation Paper Matte. That is probably the upper range of paper weight for the ET-3830. Regards, Mark - The Epson Team.Answered by Epson

Happy with this printer
I was tired of constantly running out of ink, and having to find places that still carried the cartridges for my epson 5100, which were getting harder to find and more expensive. Plus the old printer just seemed to be going through an insane amount of ink where id run out a few weeks after putting a new one in... without even printing much. SO i made the choice to upgrade to this super capacity model and at the same time bought ink refills since if i could, i would print more. Its been a YEAR and i've printed A FEW THOUSAND sheets in color, yet my ink is still over half full!!!! I haven't had a single issue with it, no clogged print heads, no sloppy ink, no smudging, no paper jams. Its pretty easy to setup on my phone and pc, holds its network connection (wifi) without issue, and scanning docs fully functional and can be emailed to you, or printed w the copy function. Refilling the ink could get messy only if you're clumsy and really the only thing i could complain about if i HAD to come up with a complaint, is that i didn't opt for the touch screen version so sometimes, ill click the display line a dork and then go duh and use the actual buttons lol. Super cheap cost to own, as the whole printer + ink costs less at purchase than i would've spent over the year for ink catridges with my other one. Does not have an autofeed option for dual sided scanned documents so you need to scan one side and flip the page to scan the other yourself, but i hardly need to use that feature. Id definately but this one again :) So simple, even a parrot can use it LOL

Amazing Printer
Amazing product. easy to set up and calibrate and easy to see toner levels. Comes with the Black, Cyan, Magenta, and yellow toner bottles. Love that’s it’s earth friendly too! Scanner works great, printing is crisp and clean. Love that it has an app that I can print stuff via my phone if I do not have my PC or laptop with me. I am very happy with this purchase!
