Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a solid printer and getting it set up was a breeze. The print quality is pretty good and it can print close to the edges, which is a huge plus for me. I chose this printer for the refillable tanks -- they're easier to fill than changing a cartridge in my opinion, and I like that you can actually see how much ink is left. On the downside, the print speed is slow (5 pages per minute), but I am still rating it 5 stars because that was advertised and therefore expected.

I needed a new printer for my office and this fits the bill in every way. It’s footprint isn’t too much. It’s not small but it’s compact enough to fit comfortably on my desk. It’s lightweight and easy to move to other locations. I like the overall design of it as well. I come from the era of cartridges, small and large, so this ecotank idea is new to me. To be quite honest, I like it. I enjoy that I’m able to view the amount of ink I have available without having to wait for an app or the screen to notify me. The ink bottles were surprisingly larger than I expected, and that aided in how easy it was to fill the ink tanks. The worst part of the printer is the screen itself. It’s so small. It’s obv not necessary for the printer to run but geesh, is it TINY. There’s enough real estate for it to have been improved with a larger screen and would have been much more intuitive if it was touch screen, like others on the market. The buttons are so spaced out and it just seems to be a waste. The printing speed isn’t lighting fast but it’s just perfect for how I use the printer. I print just a couple documents/sheets every other day or so, so I’m not in need of a high speed printer. The images are surprisingly clear, sharp and color rendering is spot on for the most part. The scanner is better suited for documents only, not for colorful graphics or photos. Besides the power cord, there’s no other cords needed or used to connect the printer. I basically started using the printer straight out of the box, right after a quick setup. I found the app to be the best and quickest way to setup the printer. It takes you through each step in a few minutes. It’s was one of the easiest printer setups I’ve had experienced. Overall, it’s a great printer. I’m interested in seeing how long the ink actually last, and I’m happy with the refill price points. If you’re looking for a smaller foot print printer from the EcoTank line for general printing or your home office for light paperwork tasks, I highly recommend this one.

After having used this printer for only a short time I can honestly say that I am impressed with the technology and quality. Let me preface by saying that this is not a high end printer and if your expectations are that it can do it all then you might want to upgrade a few levels from here. With that said, this printer can handle most family and small business needs. It can print black and white, print color, scan, and copy. What it can't do is print on both sides or scan legal size documents. Also, it does not have an automated copy feeder, so you are limited to scanning just one page at a time. The best things about this printer are that it prints in good quality and it is easy to use. Out of the box there is some work to do and the best way to get started is to download the Epson Smart Panel app and go through the setup. It will take a half an hour or so to figure out how to set it up and to fill and calibrate the ink. Once you have that done and you've connected it to your internet, then you are ready to use it. Printing is easy and almost any computer or phone or tablet that is on the same wifi system can connect and print pretty easily. If you want to scan, you will need to download the software for your computer so that the printer will know where to save the scanned document. This is also relatively easy to figure out. The print quality and the scanning and copying capabilities are very good for a printer in this price range. I was impressed with the overall quality. Also, I have another eco tank printer and can say that with normal use (a few times a week), the ink does last for a couple years, so I am expecting the same from this printer. Overall, I'm very pleased with this printer given that my expectations were for a family friendly, low volume, entry level all in one printer. I would recommend it!

GREAT printer from a GREAT store! I find this particular model to a GREAT BUY for the price. Very nice "extra" features. EASY setup and use. AND, the staff at BEST BUY was extremely helpful!

Love this EcoTank! I bought it for sublimation purposes, which voids the warranty, but it works wonderfully and is inexpensive.

So nice not having to deal with orgering ink cartridges. Prints fast, easy set up.

The Epson - EcoTank ET-2800 Wireless Color All-in-One Cartridge-Free Supertank Printer with Scan and Copy is a good all-around printer suitable for home use. Thanks to its Wi-Fi network connectivity, you can easily print to it from multiple devices on your home network. Unlike another popular printer brand that decided to eliminate USB connectivity altogether, Epson made the right decision to keep USB 3.0 connectivity, so you can still have it directly connected/wired to your legacy desktop PC. USB will also come in handy for the scanning functionality. The setup is simple, using the Epson smart panel app follow step by step instructions to get the printer setup on your Wi-Fi network. Since there are no ink cartridges, all you have to do is pour the ink from the four bottles into the tanks matching their respective colors. It’s pretty cool that you can physically see the actual ink levels on the front of the printer. I’ve had issues with ink drying up on older inkjet printers, hope Epson took care of that problem with this new cartridgeless design. It would truly be great if I didn’t have to worry about ink for the next 2 years with low to moderate printing volume. Print quality is pretty sharp even on regular paper. Speed is reasonable at 10ppm for black and half that for color. It would have been nice to have automatic duplex printing at this price point, but I guess not having to buy expensive ink cartridges a couple of times per year makes up for that. Time will tell if the EcoTank ink will be “stress-free” for two years. Epson also includes a generous 2 year warranty.

I have been a fan of the EcoTank family of printers since they first came out. The most costly part of a printer is the ink replacement due to the cartridge costs. This takes this out play by providing for large capacity ink tanks and large bottles of ink. All of this while not reducing the print quality. This model is smallest of the lineup and the most basic. It does not have a document feeder, a paper tray or automatic double sided printing capabilities. I have found that his is handy in a room where I don't have a lot of extra space. It works perfectly with a very nice scanner and fast printing. The colors are brilliant and it isn't extremely noisy. With the limited capabilities, I will use this printer for lower demand print jobs. It is always important consider the intended use when purchasing products. This is an excellent choice for a den, dorm room or a small office. I was not able to have Windows 10 automatically set up the printer, so I recommend using the drivers provided at Epson's website. I recommend this regardless because you always end up with the most recent drivers and software that will provide for all functionality. Epson also provides a phone application that works very well. I set up the printer with the phone application and it worked flawlessly. The application also provides for printer and scanner functionality. This is another great product from Epson.

Using this to replace my Canon printer, and although the DPI is lower on this printer, it does the job. Just put the print setting on HIGH before proceeding. I love the refillable part of the printer compared to buying cartridges! Somehow this printer connects better than the ET-8550, but I love them both in regards of what they can do. It is a smidge confusing to setup(wireless). Here's how to do it so that you won't get confused. Step 1: Remove all the protective tape. Step 2: Fill it up with ink accordingly. Step 3: Load AT LEAST 3 sheets of printer paper. Step 4: START at your computer to prep the wireless setup; Google Epson's ET-2800's Setup for your computer (windows vs chromebook) and download that. Step 5: Follow the steps to download the proper drivers and to connect to your wifi. It'll then ask you to navigate the rest of the steps accordingly on your printer. And you're done after that!

just perfect....some complain that the center window is too small.....wrong...I could read it even without my glasses. paper loads in the back and stands up...so you can see how much paper you need BEFORE you run out. Printing is bright and clear and color too! So easy to load ink and even windows in front to see how much ink you have left.....Just a perfect little home copier and I only paid $199.....

Works great for color powerpoints. Inkjets are no where near quality of laser jets but it does its job. Started to have lines throughout - easily found maintenance tab, selected self clean, and it worked like new again. It came with all the ink and i still have plenty left. Definitely beats the garbage cheap HP ones I had purchased in the past!! Worth the investment.

This printer really has it all! First, lets talk about the ink capacity! The ink bottles hold a lot of liquid which translates into a lot of pages! And, compared to traditional ink cartridges, the ink bottles are much cheaper! The bottles included with the printer are listed to print approximately 3,600 black/white pages approximately 6,500 color pages! That is impressive! This printer has all the features you need in a multifunction printer! It scans, copies, prints and everything in between. The only frustrating part was getting it set up. It was mildly difficult to get it to connect to wifi and it took multiple attempts. You are supposed to be able to scan a QR code with the app available for download, but it wasn't that simple. After finally getting it to connect, I followed the instructions given on the printer screen/phone app. A firmware update was available so that took several minutes to complete. Once that was finished, I loaded the ink into the tanks on the printer. This step was easy and was performed without any mess! After updating it and installing the ink, I was ready to go! I tested the printer by printing out documents and pictures from my cell phone. It worked great! The print quality was great as well! My only complaint with this printer is the small screen. There are other models above this specific one, but I believe a larger screen should have been placed on this printer. It also will not do automatic double sided printing like the higher models, but that is not a deal breaker for me. I believe I will get a lot of good usage out of this printer and it will be quite awhile before I have to purchase more ink! All in all, this is a great printer!

This printer replaces my old brother all-in-one printer. So far, I have been happy with this guy. The quality of the prints is pretty good. The speed of printing is as fast as inkjet printer can get, I guess. Here are few more details based on my experience. The initial setup is easy but it takes time as you need to fill all the ink bottles into the tank and then wait for the ink to charge. It took me approximately 20 minutes to carry out all the required steps. I used the control panel on the printer for the setup (instead of the mobile app). And the set up process was intuitive an simple. After that I installed the required software on my windows 10 desktop and the app on my android mobile. I was able to connect to the printer from both devices. I would recommend that you download latest drivers and software from the website. I have used it to scan, print and copy regular documents and have found both black & white and color prints to be pretty good. I haven't tried printing photos yet. It allows printing on both sides which saves me some pages as well as helps the environment ;) The one thing that I didn't like about this printer is the paper feeder. The paper feeder is in the back and the sheets are outside and hence visible all the time. In my old brother printer, the paper feeder tray was in the front and paper was not visible. In my opinion that was a more convenient setup. Overall, it is a good printer which should server all needs of a home office. Other than the paper feeder design, it is easy to use and prints are of good quality.

I am very satisfied and joyed at the easy setup and efficient printing of this printer. Unpackaging of the printer is probably the most arduous task with all the blue protective transporting tape. Once all the package tape is removed, it is as simple as choosing a place to set up, plug in, connect, and following the simple instructions. Using the supertank tank ink refill cartridges was a breeze and mess free. I connected wirelessly and was off and printing after loading the paper. The only thing that I did not like was the back loading tray for the paper. This normally wouldn't have been an issue but because I chose to set this up hidden away in a small cabinet, it was a little difficult to load the tray when needed. That is not all bad because the printer is so very compact that it can be placed out of sight out of mind in a computer style hutch. So unless I want to pull the printer out when reloading paper, this is all fine but a front lading tray would be perfect for where I set it up. The printer does a fine job of printing and is sufficiently fast for my needs. The quality is very nice and the printer is not overly loud when printing. Having the ink level visibly on the front is nice to let you know how really efficient the super eco tank printers are. Flat bed scanners are very nice for quick copies of documents and scan to computer works nice with the Epson printer application. Overall, a great entry level eco tank printer for any family at a decent price.

I thought it was great at first. But if you don't use this printer often, the printer quality goes way down and for me, only the black ink barely shows up. No other colors. And my inks are 3/4 full! I tried over and over to clean the heads or whatever they are called but still nothing. The cleaning is what got the black ink to finally barely show up. Before that, it wasn't showing up at all. I haven't been able to print anything of quality for over a year. I've had it for about 2 years. Also, I always have issues with getting my printer to work over wifi. I have very good internet and I even bought a wifi extender to help. I'm only in a 1600. Sq ft mobile home. The app will constantly say it can't find the printer, yet it will find 2 other printers on wifi that belongs to neighbors somewhere else in the mobile home park. I will even have my cellphone in front of the printer and it still won't find it. I have to keep fiddling with it and sometimes it will work but most times it won't. It's very frustrating. My other printers I've had never gave me any of these issues. One more thing, the little window where it shows what you need to do and where you set the settings, it's so tiny that I have to sit right in front of it, up close with a magnifyer in order to read it. Super tiny. Hard to read. I really wanted the eco tank printer to save on inks.

Great printer. Clear pictures and words. Quiet and smooth printer

The Epson Ecotank ET-2800 all in one is a great printer. I tend to bounce back and forth between Epson and HP printers, trying to find the perfect combination of connectivity, print quality and economy. This year I think I have found a printer that meets all of the above criteria. The quality of prints from this printer are as good as any home printer I have used. Speed is more than acceptable and connectivity is great using the free Epson Smart Panel App. I have been able to print from all of my devices. Setup was easy and this all in one device does not have a huge footprint. Of course the biggest selling point is the use of a refillable ink tank as opposed to replaceable cartridges. Epson claims that you can save up to 90% on the cost of ink by using this method. I have not had to buy replacement ink, and if Epsons claim of up to 4500 pages of black prints and 7500 pages of color prints on a full tank are true, it will be a while before I have to find out. Regardless, just knowing that I can use the printer over an extended period of time without having to buy small cartridges is very welcome. I also like the fact that you can see ink levels on the front of the printer. This printer seems to meet all of my needs.

This is an excellent wireless printer and scanner. This is the 2nd one that I purchased. I have one for my home in CT and the recent one for my home in Jupiter

Well, I bought the new Epson Ecotank ET-2800 for $199 (same price everywhere). So far, it works well at good speeds, black/color, and the (4) ink tanks have amazing capacity: How long does Epson 522 last? The ET-2800 printer uses Epson 522 dye-based ink bottles. The black ink bottle prints up 4,500 pages and each color ink bottle prints up to 7,000 pages. Having said that, it doesn't have a multi-feed tray (which I used only occasionally on the previous printer), nor does it do double-sided printing "automatically". However, it's easy to stick the paper back in for the 2nd side. So, a few compromises ... but it is smaller and is working well printing from all my devices including my iPhone. It's easy to refill the tanks with virtually no-spill effort, and you can see the ink remaining in 4 sight-glasses on the front. Some minor confusion during setup due to the printer and smartphone trying to do the same thing simultaneously. Be sure to pick one or the other. I also bought a 2-year warranty. It covers everything including replacement of the printer if it can't be made to work properly.

works great printing photos or documents off of my phone. having difficulties still trying to get it connected to my Mac laptop but that very well be user error. I have no complaints and was highly recommended by a family member
