A:AnswerYes, you can have 2 printers on the same network. They would each receive their own IP address. You can change the printer name in printer settings to better differentiate between the printers. By default i would assume the second printer install would add a number at the end of the printer name. You may be able to change the printer name during setup.
A:AnswerIf you have issues and have to do a lot cleanings the pads will fill quicker and forbid you have to run a powerwash it does not last a lifetime. Everyones experience is difference, speaking from experience troubleshoot and troubleshoot some more before doing even thinking about doing powerwash these inkpads cant handle it, they do warn you. Did not buy mine from BestBuy but tons of videos out there for all models.
A:AnswerHello sacses. The ET-2800 does not include a scan-to-USB drive feature. However, you can set up the printer to be used with a computer, smartphone, or tablet and save your scans there. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
A:AnswerHello Marie. Yes, the ET-2800 is good for occasional printing. Since it is an ink-jet printer, we do recommend printing out a print-head test page every few days to ensure everything is working properly. This uses minimal ink and will let you know if the printer requires a cleaning. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
A:AnswerHi, If you mean a nozzle clog, the EcoTank ET-2800 has self-cleaning capabilities that can be started from the front panel controls or the printer driver. Regards, Mark - The Epson Team.
A:AnswerHello Dan. The ET-2800 can only do 2-sided printing manually. You can select the "Double-sided" option under the main tab of your print settings. When one side is complete, you must manually flip it over to print on the other side. Unfortunately, automatic 2-sided printing is not available. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

A:AnswerHi ken, If you print infrequently, the ink in an EcoTank ET-2800 will last for a very long time. We measure ink yield by pages, not time. T522 Refill bottles for the ET-2800 can be expected to yield around 4,500 black pages and 7,500 color pages. If you want to see details on our ISO test methods, visit the Epson support site.
