Not worth it
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This printer requires ONLY Epson ink. If you use ANY OTHER INK, it is programmed to stop working in other areas and won’t work UNLESS you only use expensive Epson ink with this product. It is programmed to shut down and give errors. I should’ve stayed with my HP or just got a new HP printer. I thought I was upgrading. I wasn’t.

Posted .Hello Juliette, the Epson WF-3820 is designed to use only genuine Epson-brand ink cartridges. Other brands of ink cartridges, and ink supplies, are not compatible, and even if described as compatible, may not function properly or at all. Epson provides information about the design of the printer on the box and in many other locations and materials included with the printer and on the website.

Not good for internet wireless printing
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked the features of this printer, but my internet connection is not entirely stable and the printer got glitchy when the connection paused. No fun!

Ink Monster
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not as good as my old 3540 which I wish I still had. Ink is outrageously expensive. Cartridges do not last long. Going in the dumpster very soon.

Not a good experience with this printer!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Total disappointment. Printer ink cartridge doesn't line up correctly so I had to "trick it" into stopping short so I could insert ink cartridges initially. It worked fine until I needed to replace the black ink. I purchased the Epson ink for this model so $75 later, I get an error message that says. "Cannot recognize ink cartridge." No way I can use the printer until I figure out what's wrong! Trouble shooting videos are worthless! I was highly satisfied with this printer, right up to when I needed to replace the ink cartridge.

Don't Update Firmware
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a nice printer but a terrible, terrible value. This printer guzzles ink. The printer claims that all of the cartridges are empty after just a few uses. A new pack of ink cartridges cost 75 dollars, which is half the price of the printer. Furthermore, Epson has released a firmware update that prevents the printer from functioning if you attempt to use any other brand's ink. Do not buy Epson printers. They are a terrible value in use.

Not a reliable machine!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this printer less than 2 years ago and have been so disappointed. We don't do a lot of printing but when we wanted to use it there was always some issue that took up great amounts of time: software update, cleaning heads, connection issues, etc. We contacted support and were told we were doing all the right things. The printer now will not work at all. Not a good machine!

All-in-One failure. Again
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Piece of crap. They start out well, but after a year it is time for another. It is not worth the money. This is pretty typical in my experience with the Epson All-in-One. Either I must stop purchasing the all-in-one or Epson products all together. Sorry not sorry Shaq!

Doesn't stay connected to wi-fi. Inferior quality.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Printer won't stay connected to wi-fi even though I have an extremely strong, 500 Mb/s wi-fi connection. Have an older Epson WF-3540 that works fine. Mechanical quality of WF-3820 is definitely inferior to that of old printer. I would definitely not recommend. Will try an HP printer instead of Epson. Very disappointed in Epson's new line of printers.

Stay away if you like reliability
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nothing but ink cartridge issues and error messages. This machine has defects in the software or the hardware it more times than I'd like doesn't recognize authentic Epson ink. I've had other cheaper models that have had no issues until after using for years. Once I get frustrated enough and throw this one out the window I will never buy an Epson product again.

Worst printer ever
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had so many issues with this printer and the wireless connection. It would constantly lose connection and then you would have to go throught the process of reconnecting to the wifi. I could never just print and it be good. Finally threw it in the trash and bought a canon printer. It works perfectly.

Ink Vampire will drain your wallet
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You will go broke buying ink for this printer. I believe this printer uses ink even when it is NOT printing. I have always purchased OEM print refills for this printer, yet the ink levels drop very quickly with very few print projects. Don't waste your money on this ink VAMPIRE ... look at Brother printers instead.

Forces you to buy expensive ink
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its cheaper initially but forces you to buy their own expensive cartridges with software upgrades. Their cartridges don't last long and you have to buy color ink too even if you only need B&W.

Dishonest Company
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The printer works fine, if you are okay with firmware updates disabling your printer for using an after-market ink cartridge. Shady, deceptive, and completely infuriating business practice.
