Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very easy set up and to use. Still working on how to change layouts but otherwise very pleased with print quality on a variety of photo papers.

Purchased to make high quality photo prints and it does not disappoint. Ink tanks instead of expensive cartridges makes mass photo printing much less expensive.

I came to the store the service was decent but I thought I was buying a sublimation printer. That's what I was told by the store person that helped me find the Epson 8550. I realized upon getting it home after I put the ink in it that it was not a sublimation printer unless I put sublimation ink in that and I feel like they should have told me this from the get-go. This led to me being confused and setting up the printer as a regular inkjet. I was not able to use it for sublimation. I bought this for my art business and I expected that I would be able to use it for sublimation. The printer overall for other things other than the sublimation has been a great printer until recently. The ink started to blot up I've done cleaning and everything else but it's messing up when I try to print things out now

As a photographer I am very critical of a printers image quality when printing photos. When used with a quality photo paper, the ET-8550 does a great job. It is especially good with black and white photos as most other standard inkjet printers will show color casts in areas meant to be a neutral gray. Plus, the cost of ink is a third of that with cartridges and there is practically no chance a color with run out while printing and ruin the print. Additionally, the ability to print large is invaluable. Photos come alive in the larger sizes.

Everything works just like I have expected to work.

Great printer. Couldn’t be happier. Setup is easy. Connectivity over wireless network is great. I always struggle with canon, but this one is great. Awesome print quality

Love this printer! The colors are so vibrant! It’s easy to set up.

Epson is never let me down with their print quality. There is a learning curve but once you get it, it's easy to operate. This is a present to my sister, and she is on top of the world with it.

Love this multi-function printer that prints beautiful vibrant photo prints. Nice size flip up colored touchscreen with a scanner that scans up to 8.5x14 inches. The ink tanks are easy to fill. Using this type of ink technologies reduces ink cost.

I got into photography a few years ago. Last year i decided I wanted to be able to print some of my own photos. After a lot of research, I decided to invest in this Epson. I have not been disappointed. I love how large I can go with the prints! This purchase has definitely been a good decision!

I replaced my WF-7710 with this ET-8550. Other than paper capacities this is by far one of the best pronters i have owned. The picture reproduction is outstanding. From business cards to 11.5x14 envelopes i have printed alot in the short time I've owned this. The scanner is easy to set up and use. The printing speeds are very impressive too. ECOTANKS are definitely the way to go if you need a printer for more than the occasional use. If you are looking for professional looking results and wat to print larger than a 8x10 do yourself a favor and buy the ET-8550.

This printer is amazing! I've had it for a year now, and i use it frequently.I make a lot of party supplies. I haven't had to replace the ink yet. I've printed all the different size pages...mostly the larger sizes. This is hands down the best printer I've owned. You save so much money not having to replace ink cartridges so often. I

I love my Epson ET-8550 printer. It has everything I need for my small business.

Excellent printer! I am very pleased with the quality of the prints I am getting as well as the quality of the printer itself. It is fast, reliable and the onscreen controls are easy to use. A good buy for me!

Printer quality is good and prints are good, but as usual, it's Epson and the firmware updates more often than any Windows computer and most of the time, the update doesn't work the first time you attempt it. Other than that insanely inconvenient issue, the printer is designed well...unless you change media sizes often and then you have to perform minor surgery every time you change. Keep in mind that this will keep you from putting the printer on any shelf or table that doesn't have easy access to the back of the printer. Overall, I like the print quality and the printer is good quality, but the design seems like it wasn't entirely well thought out.

if I could I would give this a 3.5. I've had this printer now for a month and have only printed one thing with it and that's the test page. It took an epson tech two weeks to get my brand new laptop to even finish downloading the driver to use it. The download would go so far and stop! It is supposed to be able to print up to a 13x19 print, but the software for it only shows up to a standard size 8.5x11. I paid almost $900 for this printer so I could do large prints and it is just sitting here collecting dust! I'm sure it does make beautiful prints, but i can't get it to work. I've been told by a few others that they are having the same problems so I know its just not me.

Absolutely love my machine, it works like a charm. The bigger screen was a huge bonus for me.

This is my second purchase of this printer and I never have no problem best printer EVER!

Nice large format printer works well with photos as well as every day printing.

Pretty good. I use this for art prints and stickers and the quality is pretty sharp. Only complaint would be sometimes the colors don't always show up as vivid as the original photograph or I have had a few random ink spots on prints. Still learning how to best operate the machine but so far, I am pleased.
