QuestionCan you use heat transfer paper on this printer? If not which epson printer is better for heat transfer printing?
Asked 3 years ago by Denise.
- Answer Hello Denise. The ET-5850 works with Epson Iron-on Cool Peel Transfer paper, which can be used with t-shirts. Please note we have not tested other brands of transfer paper with the machine. If you plan to use 3rd party paper, we recommend trying a small batch first to ensure it works properly and has satisfactory image quality. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

QuestionWhat is the monthly copy rating
Asked 1 week ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Hello. The ET-5850 has a monthly duty cycle up to 66,000 pages max. It is not recommended that the printer be run at this duty. However, based on near-constant operation, it is the highest duty a user could expect in a month. For best device performance, we recommend running the printer at the recommended duty of 200 to 3,300 pages per month. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

- Answer Hello wade. The EcoTank ET-5850 is primarily designed for home and light-office document printing, but if you use Epson photo or photo matte paper and set it to high quality, the ET-5850 prints good photos. If you want excellent-quality photos, consider a printer from the Epson Expression line. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
