Customer Ratings & Reviews

Epson 8550 is the perfect printer for and kinds of print. The color is 100% true to life and the ink last forever. I love this printer.

Works great for Tshirts, especially larger graphics.

Excellent quality and bright colors. Would recommend to everyone.

Love this printer for printing photos & anything you need to print off on paper also. My fiance has printed a lot of pictures & we still have a lot of ink left. It surely does the job & will last us a long time.

Does a awesome job printing photos and documents. I like the fact you don't need to buy ink cartridges. I have printed over 600 pages and my ink has only went down a small amount.

I love the fact that it print up to 13 x 19 and that it can be changed into a sublimation printer. The price was great since I caught it on sale. I haven't got to use it yet waiting on the ink, but I heard nothing but great things about this printer.

I was between two epson printers an very happy with my decision to purchase this printer because of the larger printer options! Vivid print quality, and absolutely love the automatic output tray!

So far I am Enjoying this EPSON. It’s being put to good work every day and having the ECO Tank helps out tremendously. I recommend this product to all my friends and family. A solid 5 stars!

Not only does the printer stink, but so does their customer service/support. I purchased this printer to produce a batch of 200 invitations for a wedding. I purchased 272 GSM cardstock for the invitations, and all of them came through with roller indents (through the rear paper feeder). This is after all the troubleshooting I could do with online videos, including enabling the thick paper settings, choosing the right paper, setting every setting as correctly as possible, etc... It would always leave those indents regardless of settings. And it's supposed to handle up to 300 GSM before needing to use the very back rear paper slot, so I'm not sure what's going on here! I also attempted to print onto Red River's glossy photo paper. Absolutely destroyed it with roller indents. And I don't mean it left little dots or pizza wheel marks in the paper, I mean it stamped the paper, like it was debossing it, and it was bad. Because it was gloss the issue was obvious and impossible to cover up or conceal in any way. By the way, I tested the same paper in my cheap Canon Pixma printer we've been using forever at home until purchasing this printer, and it left none of the issues I'm mentioning now. The quality of it was worse, obviously, but it could actually handle the paper. All of that, and it doesn't even begin to describe the huge number of issues I've had with alignment. These invites are double sided. I'm printing them out on letter-sized paper to be more economical and am slicing them afterwards. Even before I've taken a blade to it, the print is not lined up with the backside. But not because it's offset one way or the other, but because it's ROTATED/SKEWED ever so slightly one way or the other. That shouldn't happen! Not on an $800 printer! Since I couldn't guarantee alignment that way, I went ahead and precut the paper, and attempted to print the cards in the regular 5x7 size, using the borderless print option. Most of these are turning out fine, no roller indents on this new paper I've picked out (a much more lightweight paper), but still alignment issues! I've double and triple checked that the paper and cuts I've made are square, and they're square enough that I shouldn't be having as drastic of an issue as this. I had to use the borderless scaling option NOT because of a potential margin on ALL sides (or even an issue with the designed document), but because it wanted to leave a margin on the LEFT side only (a good thick one too)! And that's with the paper feeder being set correctly to the width of the card! So I HAD to use the scale option despite having extra offset and correctly set margins, etc... And still, of the 200-ish invites I've printed out, 10 of them came out with a miniscule white line on the left side. (all the same settings, same alignment in feeder tray, etc...). But here's the kicker, it's not consistently thick! In fact, it disappears and goes off the edge of the paper at about the halfway point! THIS MEANS IT'S BEING FED IN SKEWED AT AN ANGLE!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?! Sure enough, checking it with a clear ruler, calipers, etc... it's not printing straight, it's slightly skewed. Just enough that you almost can't notice, but I do, and it's frustrating me that I spent $800 on a printer for my client to receive something that I would throw a fit over. I know the cuts are as square as it gets, and even if they aren't, they are not nearly as far off as the printer is skewing the print. I genuinely don't know what to do here! I've done the alignments several times to no effect. I know that you can't solve every problem, and skewing, misalignment, etc... are all going to happen, but this is an EXPENSIVE printer. This is something you purchase as an investment into yourself. And THIS is the result? By the way, when I brought up the misalignment to their customer support, the best they could do was respond with a list of supported papers :) No attempt at trouble-shooting or actual support. The only saving grace about this thing is it's an eco-tank, and it really does NOT use ink at all. I've printed the 200 invites, and I'm only barely getting low on Gray, and nothing else. That and when the quality settings are set correctly, the quality of the print is gorgeous. But all the other technical issues make this a STEER CLEAR AND STAY AWAY review. Find something that doesn't have issues like this if you're shopping at this price point. I severely regret the purchase.

Excellent printer and the ink lasts for a long time.

This thing has the speed and printing capabilities of a Comercial printer with top quality prints

I am using several prints. We found the most suitable and high-quality print. This print can display color and clarity that cannot be expressed in other prints. It's a great print that elevates what I'm doing.

This printer is excellent for quality and cost of printing. The eco tank ink from the factory is priced good enough you don’t need to use 3rd party inks. Highly recommended if you are printing smaller than 13x19!

I love the printer. It has printed some absolutely amazing photos. I have yet to try out the edge to edge printing, but I look forward to attempting it. I highly recommend this printer to anyone.

Incredible printer, tons of features, prints photo lab quality prints, can print 13x19 prints, uses small amount of ink, ink is reasonably priced.

Great printer. It's a little fiddly to get going, requires more tending than your average home office unit, but it outputs fantastic qiality.

FALSE Marketing. Epson says compatible with Windows 7 & XP. FALSE. After 7 hours with their Tech teams 1-3 nothing could get the digital screen to scan. Finally I was told that they are aware that Scanner will NOT work with Windows 7. I was able to get the scanner to work by right clicking on the Windows icon found in "Devices and Printers" in the control panel. Click "start scan" and scanning becomes possible - but not ideal as this expensive printer should work. Disappointing

Great printer. Saves us on ink cost. Great prints on family photos.

Great printer and scanner! Tanks are great. Photos print amazing!

My kids and I love this printer so much!! We we initially hesitant because of the cost but after doing a lot of research, we're so glad we ended up going with this printer. It's truly awesome!
