Customer Ratings & Reviews

After leaving a school where I have worked for almost 30 years I left without a printer. I have always wanted a color printer and the Epson 2850 was a great choice. It was easy to set up and the ink was super easy to fill and very affordable.

Set up was easy, both with the ink and the software. Was also simple to set up online for wireless capability. I can print from my computer, my phone, or my tablet. The quality overall is good, including photo prints.

Printer works great. Very easy to fill ink tanks. Comes with full size bottles to fill the ink tanks so you don't need to purchase ink right away. Only feature it is missing that I would like is having the ability to copy multiple pages at one time. Can only do one page at a time for copies or scans. Does print double sided. Good deal for the price.

Works great, prints guickly, easy to setup and use

Setup is very easy - either wired or via Wi-Fi. Print quality is excellent for both text and photos. Large ink tanks and (relatively) inexpensive replacement ink makes use and cost more efficient (less frequent refills). The scanner is surprisingly good for straight copying and image or text scanning to digital.

I am extremely satisfied with the Ecotank Epson printer because it offers significant savings on ink compared to my previous HP printer. The ink for the Epson is reasonably priced, which is a great improvement from the expensive frequent ink replacements required for the HP printer. However, I do have a minor preference for different scanner functionality. If I had invested in a higher-priced model, I might have had a better scanning experience. It would have been beneficial if the back paper feed could be used for scanning as a document feeder, allowing for double-sided and batch scanning. Nonetheless, the Ecotank Epson printer is an excellent choice, especially for home use.

It does the job a printer should do… print! It’s been reliable without any jamming or disconnection issues. Quality is solid. Sometimes it can be slow to start the job, but I don’t think a job has failed yet.

Good printer, fast, easy to install, ink not so expensive

I got this to replace a different, well-known printer brand whose ink is pretty pricey, and does not last very long at all. At the time my wife was homeschooling and we were going through probably a full black and colored ink cartridge every month and a half with all the printing we were doing. This Epson Eco-Tank was a game changer, and we're still on the original ink that it shipped with. One thing that was new about this that wasn't really an issue with the previous printer, is the need to use this printer every so often to prevent the print heads from drying out, so if we haven't printed anything in a while we'll just print a couple of random pages every now and then to keep up with that.

I replaced a HP Envy All-in-One Printer/Scanner that was almost brand new with this EPSON ET-2850 /All-in One Supertank Inkjet Printer. Both Printers were setup to operate in the wireless mode. I was extremely unhappy with the HP Envy Model as it was constantly losing it's operational settings and had to reprogram the darn thing about every other time I tried to print anything with it. I have had nothing but HP Printers which were very easy to initially set up and then never had to go through the set up procedures like I did with the HP Envy Printer. Then, too, I didn't like the extra steps I had to go to to get a document printed. The EPSON is a joy to use compared to that HP Envy printer. I doubt i will ever go back to HP Printers again if the future models are as difficult to setup as the Envy Model and then have it lose it's settings and have to go through the number of steps to reprogram it again.

Printer is sufficient for our needs at home. The ink tank is way bigger than all the printer cartridges we ever used before and has lasted longer than what we are used to with our previous HP inkjet printers.

Got it to replace a on-its-last-legs HP inkjet for work colleague. Really good ink coverage; took over a year to use HALF the black ink. Very economical. Downsides are typical inkjet tradeoffs; print durability is suspect if you print in humid conditions and/or paper gets wet. Still great for everyday print jobs. Would buy again (in fact, we did - twice) and recommend.

I have always used Epson printers, never had any problems. I was excited to buy the EcoTank ET-2850. The ink lasts so long, has a great many features. After some time it has slowed down and takes a long time to print even just one page. I love to print photos and I have to say this printer is not very user friendly for them. You have to physically change for every size on the computer. Has no slot for 4x6 like my old small Epson. Keeps saying error and waisting paper. It is a pain to keep changing. Although it has great ink that lasts a long time. Im looking for something that works easier for me.

Love this printer. I like the fact the ink is liquid . So I don’t have to buy all the colors at once if o don’t need to. Fast reliable printer . Easy set up great customer support when I needed to use it .

Love it it’s fast and amazing. I love the new ink toner. Looking forward to not having to fill or switch out ink cartridges. It was easy to fill an easy to maintain. Would recommend this to anyone.

I love this printer, it is well worth the money. I haven't had an issue with it, and I print with no regularity. Maybe on average 1-2 times per week but up to 30 / 40 pages/print job. The EcoTank ink system is fantastic and seems to make use of the tech found in many industrial printers just scaled down. It prints beautiful pictures for a low-end consumer printer, and I haven't had to fill my tanks yet. I purchased this printer on Dec 17, 2023, and am still running on the ink that came with the printer with about 5/8 of my tanks remaining. My $65-$70 worth of starter ink is still fresh and prints like a dream. I love this and it doesn't feel like a rip-off, unlike printers that require cartridges.

Best printer I’ve used in the current era of printers. No goofy subscriptions or ink cartridges to replace. It’s so much cheaper and easier just to fill up a reservoir. I don’t print things very often and I still have a lot of ink left. It’s also nice to just buy individual inks so it doesn’t do that annoying thing other printers do where even if all you need is black, they make you buy the colors. I hope printers like this become the norm.

Great starter printer, I use it for side jobs and it gets the job done. The display could have been a little bigger but it’s cool.

Works fine for my needs. The print quality is not excellent, can be a little blurred or off. But it suits my needs just fine. I like how well the wifi function works. I do most of my work on the main floor, yet the printer is in the basement and it prints every time. I like that I can visibly see the ink level. Sometimes the paper feed can be a bit picky.

I recently tried out the Epson EcoTank ET-2850 and I'm impressed. The refillable ink tank feature is great – no more cartridges. The print quality is decent for basic documents and photos. It's compact with wireless connectivity, which is convenient. Printing speed could be better, but the long-term savings make up for it. Yes, the initial cost is a bit higher, but it's worth it for the low cost per page. A good choice if you're looking for something cost-effective and don't mind sacrificing speed!
