QuestionIf I leave the printer turned of for six months, will it still work when I turn it back on? Is there a self-care maintenance mode that will run itself when I am not home during this time away?. I cannot service the heads on my 2760 when left off.
Asked 1 year ago by Downtime.
- Answer Yes the printer will still work. There is no self care mode, but there is a maintenence section in the printer menu. You are also able to clean the printer nozzles in the menu.

Questionwhat do I do when the printer won't print Yellow?
Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Run the nozzle clean cycle, then do a test print sheet. You may need to do that several times. Make sure to use only Epson ink, it really makes a difference and this unit ink tanks last so long it is not a big cost.

QuestionI'm finding when I print 8.5 x.11 multiple page documents (say 15 pages), the output tray because it has tabs that stick up in the front--the pages don't lay flat and instead it pushes them out onto the floor. Any solution for this?

QuestionDoes the Epson ET 3850 handle card stock?
Asked 2 years ago by marilyn.
- Answer Hello marilyn. The thickest paper the ET-3850/4850 can print on is Epson Premium Photo Paper Glossy which weighs 79 lb. Cardstock is supported, and we have tested similar Epson paper that weighs around 44 lb. These recommendations are for Epson paper only, you can try a cardstock that falls between that range, but your results can vary when using other brands and heavier paper. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

Asked 2 years ago by Jim.
- Answer Hello Jim. It should be very straightforward. You can follow the on-screen instructions on the control panel to set up your printer. After that, download the Epson Smart Panel app from the Apple App Store. Make sure that your printer and phone are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Once the app is open, add your printer, and the setup should be complete. Please visit our official Epson Support page, where you can find the setup guide if you need additional assistance.

QuestionIs this printer compatible with the Eero router for wireless printing?
Asked 2 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Hello. The ET-4850 is designed to work on a home Wi-Fi router using a 2.4 GHz band. If the Eero Wi-Fi router you use is a 5 GHz router there could be a conflict. You want to ensure that it is a dual-band router and the printer connects to the 2.4 GHz band if available. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

Asked 3 years ago by Carolyn.
- Answer Hi Carolyn, There are settings in your ET-4850's printer driver that are not compatible with two-sided printing. Try setting the paper size to Letter and the paper type to plain.

QuestionI recently purchased this printer to use for sticker paper. But on my matte paper, the colors are completely off, mainly when using skin tone type colors? I have tried every setting and have not been able to match the color? Is there a way to fix this?
Asked 3 years ago by Dancer.
- Answer Hello Dancer. When using 3rd party paper, you might have to use a specific color profile for color matching. We also recommend printing out a nozzle check from the maintenance menu to ensure all colors are working correctly. If you need additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our Technical Support team by phone. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

QuestionI'm looking at both the Eco Tank photo ET-8500 and ET-4850 : noticed one has 3 colors instead of 6. I print up to 8" x 10" and smaller prints. like a high quality photo, will I be unhappy with the 3 color printer. Also want blk & Wht text on normal paper
Asked 3 years ago by Leslie.
- Answer Hello Leslie. The ET-4850 and ET-8500 can deliver impressive print quality. The ET-8500 will be a better option if you're looking to print photos because, as you said, it has more colors. This means you will have more of a color range, smoother gradients, and richer dark colors. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
