Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased the 2800 one first, but a few months later got this one too. The color print is sooo much better than the 2800,. I must admit that a few times when I printed from my iPad, it kept saying it was out of paper, or it would only print the top portion and the rest would come out blank. This sucked because I was using sticker paper. Once I switched backed to printing from the laptop, no more problems.

very good printer, i only printed 8 x 11.5. print is very nice. ecotank ink should keep cost of ink down. people like to get bigger prints. great picture quality paper tray is flimsy, just be gentle. easy to set up.

Exactly what I was looking for and the gentleman that helped me was out of this world. Item was price matched and I received a great deal

I got this printer because it CAN print on thick cardstock, however doing the rear feed slot in the back is a bit of a nuisance. You have to partially disassemble the printer and keep trying to print from the back until it actually prints. I bought the printer to print up mock-up packaging for new products before spending money on "real" packaging. The printer prints nicely on Canon brand glossy photo paper, but leaves pizza wheel track marks on all other brands glossy photo paper that I have tried, including Epson brand photo paper. Matte photo paper doesn't have a gloss for the spikes to leave holes in so any non-glossy paper should be fine. I have tried 3 different brands of compatible inks and all worked good enough for me so you can save money on cheap ink. Some of the prints on photo paper will have extra marks on the paper where some of the excess ink rubs onto something and then onto the paper in the wrong spots, but those stray marks don't happen all the time. The stray marks just mean a good 13x19 photo paper is ruined and you need to print again. I also recommend waiting between poster prints to let the excess ink dry so it doesn't rub off onto the next paper and create stray marks. I haven't tried printing on any disks yet. To make sure the ink doesn't dry in the nozzles, you will need to find a 5 color Cyan Magenta Yellow K(black) Grey color print purge picture and print that as "regular" and a 1 color K(black) and print as photo paper glossy, to make sure all the nozzles are blasted clean, recommended about 1 time per week.

This printer is awesome!!! Fast printing easy to set and use. Print with. Bright colors. I recommend anyone to buy this printer. I want another you cant go wrong with this printer

I love this printer the photo comes out great. Also I’m glad I purchased the warranty the output tray got stuck went to bestbuy they replaced it with a new one.

So far, after a few short weeks printing many numbers of images 81/2x11, 11x17 (paper sizes) this printer has given me beautiful results with no major issues. A couple of times it deposited/smudged a few corners of prints with black ink. Not enough to get into the image area but still a little odd. The image quality is really, really good. The images are all photography. The printer responds well to using ICC profiles and making adjustments - your monitor has to be set to lower brightness levels - how much lower depends on several things (too much to say here). If you're using this for photography, you won't be disappointed. I've now printed, at last count the other day, over 200 images, some having to print several times after adjustments. The ink is still well above 1/2 full in all the tanks. Lot's of positives. It's true what all those who have reviewed this say = no disappointments, especially if you're not hyper-critical. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

Really love the printer! Excellent quality for my large format printed photographs. Eco tank ink consumption is great as compared to the typical cartridges. I bought it at Best Buy as I felt the extended warranty was the best value as compared to other retailers.

I’ve been using this printer for a while now, and I can confidently say it has exceeded my expectations. One of the biggest advantages of this printer is its EcoTank system, which replaces traditional ink cartridges with refillable ink tanks. The ink bottles included in the box last for hundreds of prints, so you don’t have to worry about constantly replacing cartridges. The photo print quality is exceptional. Connectivity options are also very flexible. With Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and SD card support, it's easy to print from virtually anywhere. In short, the ET-8550 is an excellent choice for anyone serious about photo printing. I'm extremely satisfied and would definitely recommend it to others.

Loved the printer works great! Liking being able to print bigger images rather than sending to print at a store.

I've been pleased with this printer so far. It's not the fastest when it comes to printing documents, but photos come out looking amazing. I'm replacing an old HP, so the bottles of ink will take a little getting used to. I just hope I don't get the bottles of ink mixed up and end up putting one in the wrong port! I had no problem setting the printer up and it was easy to connect to my home network.

This is one of the best printers I have ever had. The ink last very long. I have been printing lots of prints daily and it looks like I barely used any. The print quality is great! I highly recommend this printer.

Excellent print and easy to use! Great image and color!

Very impressed with this Printer and Epson. The printer came securely packaged and was easy to set up with Epson's companion App. This is my first Epson and I am excited by the new Technology for Ink . I printed photos from my Iphone 12 Pro Max and they were spectacular. Although the initial cost is high it is very inexpensive when you factor standard inkjet cartridges year after year , and the operation of the hardware and software are first rate. Highly recommend it . Great job Epson!

My one concern about this was the potential mess with filling it with ink from bottles but the ink doesn't come out of the bottles unless they're latched onto the ink tank. Extremely easy to use. I did have one paper jam since using it but it walked me through how to get the paper unstuck which was nice

Was a relatively easy set up and prints well. Inially it connected smoothly with my laptop, in addition to my husband's but after a couple of weeks it wouldn't connect from mine. Hoping the ink won't dry up like so many more older printers and that it IS more cost efficient but only time will tell.

Easy to set up and prints beautiful colors. Prints borderless and can choose a variety of papers and card stocks.

The major advantage of the ET-8550 for photo printing is the cost of ink. The software takes time to figure out. In fact, I am still trying to master it. The quality of photo prints is very good. Now the question is now long will the print last before fading. Only time will tell.

It's been wonderful so far, with great print quality. Definitely pricey but a good investment. It does print almost imperceptible lines on some types of paper (printable vinyl most notably), but I haven't compared different brands yet. VERY IMPORTANT: You need to print frequently! I didn't use it for a week and the print heads already started to clog. I'm loving it so far, but definitely have to do some troubleshooting.

I love my 8550 has the best quality and easy to use!
