    Despite connecting to my WiFi through my router and then an LAN cable, this printer refuses to finish the setup process. It printed a sheet that said the network connection is fine but still it keeps telling me the printer is not found. This should not be giving me problems right out of the box. I regret purchasing this.

    everytime I change ink it is a fight to get the printer to accept it. Keeps saying install correctly. it also eats ink like candy. I had just installed yellow, several things were highlighted in yellow and in 30 pages it ran out. I would have gave it a zero.

    I had this printer for less than a year before having to by a new one! IMO the paper feeding is flawed, is has plastic gears that break easily even when the is little paper in the tray. I should have listened to the reviews because some mentioned this issue!

    The printer wouldn't initialize the ink cartridges, and shot ink all over our white wall & ourselves. We exchanged it , and the new unit wouldn't connect to the Wi FI. I contacted Epson , and after spending over an hour on the phone with their high level tech, i gave up.

    Worst printer I've ever set up. Trying to scan to email is impossible for me. Asks for all these different server passwords and adresses. Not like my old hp that was automatic and easy. Kept printing halfway then stopping and when i would cancel it would never stop cancelling until i turned power off. Been a headache so far. Good luck.

    Ink cartridge Scam by Epson

    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

    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.
