    Ink cartridge Scam by Epson

    Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This printer was working great until I had to do a “firmware” update” - now after months of smooth operation it will no longer recognize any of the ink cartridges that worked fine prior to the update. I contacted Epson support and they are saying it now only works with genuine Epson cartridges.

      Hello RobertR, Epson periodically provides firmware updates to address issues of security, performance, minor bug fixes, and to ensure your printer functions as designed. Your Epson WorkForce Pro WF-3820was designed to work only with genuine Epson ink cartridges, therefore some updates may affect the functionality of third-party ink. Non-Epson branded or altered Epson cartridges that functioned prior to a firmware update may not continue to function. If we can help with anything else, please reach out to our Epson Support Team at (562) 276-4382; Hours: Monday – Friday, 7am – 4pm PT. Sincerely, Tony – The Epson Team. Epson

    Ink Cartridges are an issue!

    Worst printer ever! It uses up ink like crazy. Then I did a firmware update only to find out you can only use Epson brand ink cartridges. I just brought new 3rd party ink cartridges a couple months ago. Ugh! It costs the same at this point for me just to go back to an HP printer vs buying Epson brand ink cartridges.

    Horrible! I’ve only been able to use this a handful of times and I’ve had this a year and a half. I’ve called so many times to Epson to no avail. I’ve had my next-door neighbor come work on it and every time he gets it working it stops. This is for work and home and would not recommend to anyone.

    Duplex printed even though that feature was turned off. Epson said hardware failure so had to return it. Print was really light. Liked the look and features of this printer but decided not to buy another one because of the light print. Epson wasn't sure if this was just how this printer printed.

    Purchased the printer on Dec 10th, 2020. It stopped working after 127 printed pages. When attempting to replace the cartridges they will not move to the replacement location. I also purchased genuine ink cartridges and they aren't being recognized. Overall poor experience and was offered a slight discount on a new printer. I will not be purchasing epson in the future.

    Worst printer ever. The ink carriage does not slide over to allow you to change the ink. And if you change the ink manually while printer is off, it will still not recognize the ink and won't allow you to print anything. This was such a waste of money and I am so disappointed that after I finished the first set of ink cartridges in the printer, the return date has passed and I am stuck with a completely useless printer.

    It takes 5 minutes to prepare to print. This is useless, plastic garbage advertised as a higher-quality business printer. Avoid this at all costs and buy something better or save money on a cheaper HP unit.

    Don't ever buy an Epson printer. I bought a WF-3720 Pro not even a year ago, and since they FORCED me to install their intrusive software to be able to print instead of using Windows default driver, I kept getting an error 202600 DAILY and following some advice to clean my print heads, the printer just stopped recognizing my ink.

    Worked fine for three weeks. Then couldn't find wifi or print from any wireless device. Trouble shot all suggestions from Epson. Main problem is only a 15 day return policy. At time of purchase there was an extended policy in place. It would print from lan connection but only after trouble shooting several times. Did purchase another Epson waiting for delivery.
