    Fabulous Printer

    It works great. I like the ink tanks. Up to 2 years of ink. I don't print a lot, so should get something over 1 year of printing. The auto 2 side printing easy to use. Photos look fabulous also. Epson ink is smear proof. I held a photo under sink water, took it out and it would not smear. I plan on staying with Epson ink. I miss the two paper holders, one for letter paper and one for photo paper my Canon had. It's really no big deal to switch it out. Highly recommend this printer

    Pretty easy to start. Like the smaller size to my last one. Anticipating less ongoing maintenance cost to my last printer (high priced cartridge/s) Was easy to prepare for start up, and printing seems so far, very good quality. Would purchase again at this point.

    Excellent printer that pays for itself with its efficiency. Ink lasts an incredibly long time and costs a fraction of what cartridge based printers do.

    Good Investment in a Versatile All-In-One Printer

    The Epson ET 3850 printer is a solid performer. It is an investment in the future. The casing material is a bit too "plasticy" in my opinion and not as solid as other printers we have had, such as the comparable Canon and HP models. That is the biggest negative. Having said that, the functionality is as good as it gets? And the long term printer ink savings will become more important as time goes by. I wish Epson had enclosed better instructions on operating the printer and in using the various tools. When the firmware update does appear in the display screen, I am not sure whether to accept the firmware update or ignore it as the online suggestions are mostly negative on accepting Epson's firmware updates. I am looking forward to years of sold performance as an all-in-one printer.

    We Purchased the Epson ego tank 3830 from Best Buy to replace a much older Epson printer that I had use for many years. I thought this would be a great machine due to the fact that I didn’t have to buy those blasted cartridges. The set up was easy, putting in the ink was a breeze and I had great hopes for this printer. Simple printing is not a problem, but that is not the only reason why I purchased the printer. Only paid 299 for it plus tax, which I thought was a steel and I guess I was hoping for a really good printer… you see I am a professional photographer and the last Epson had done quite well not being an expensive printer. I guess I was wrong in my decision to purchase this one. The prints come out with a heavier, cyan tone and look as though there is a haze over each of the photographs. Not good. I installed all the latest updates for this machine. When the set up was complete I tried out printing a photograph and instantly was disappointed. I am not sure what to do at this time, just sorry I bought it.

    I bought this out of the irritation of always needing one or more cartridges to print something. I've had this printer for over a year and I haven't even had to add ink yet. The bottles they give you do last and I am extremely pleased with the printing. For my family, this printer is working out very well. I've used the scanner but next time I'll get one with a document feeder. I am so much happier with the separate ink reservoirs and not needing to get cartridges all the time. Setup was easy for the network, computer and phone.
