Received a Defective Printer – Extremely Disappointed
I’m very disappointed with my purchase. I received my printer, but it’s not working it won’t even turn on. I expected a functional product, but instead, I’m left with something unusable. This has been a frustrating experience.

Cumplió más allá de lo que esperaba, la calidad de la impresión es muy buena, fácil de instalar y usar, la app para celular es muy intuitiva así como su manejo desde la pc La calidad de las impresiones es muy nítida y viva, ideal para fotografía sobre todo si vas a imprimir un volumen mediano de fotos, ya que en cuanto a su costo beneficio sin duda alguna es de lo mejor que encontrarán

This is an 'initial impressions' review after setup and a few weeks use. - Best Use Case: If, like us, your printing needs are 80% creative (artwork, photographs, etc.), 20% light document printing and occasional scanning, then this printer will meet your needs. Even though you won't be buying a new cartridge with a thimbleful of ink every 100 pages, I would not recommend this printer for high-volume workplace printing. It's not built for speed and you'll be filling the paper tray too often to be productive. Likewise, unlike a more office-oriented printer, the ET-8500 does not have a feeder for the scanner. - Unboxing / Setup: While it did take about an hour to set up, the process went much easier than I anticipated based on the reviews I read. We have it connected to our home network via Ethernet and I was able to do all necessary configuration via the printer's touch screen. Aligning the print heads is a rather lengthy process, so be prepared to spend some time on this. Our old printer would semi-self align by scanning the alignment samples once they were printed. With the ED-8500, I had to manually select which alignment settings looked best, which slowed the process considerably. - Hardware Quality: Overall, the printer feels well-built and worth the money. That being said, I do agree with other reviewers who state the paper trays feel a little chintzy and possibly easy to damage if you don't handle them with kid gloves. No problems thus far, however, so I'm simply crossing my fingers with the hoping for the best. On the flip side, I love that the output tray fully retracts into the printer when not in use. Touch screen operation is a veritable godsend compared to the wonky, practically useless LCD on our old printer. In fact, with a thumb drive or (full sized) SD card, you can perform many operations straight from the touchscreen. - Software: While it did install applications I'm not likely to use, Epson's software is much less intrusive, in my opinion, than you-know-who's naggy, resource consuming bloatware. I can't speak to the smartphone application as I have no need for it thus far. I'm also pleased to report that the printer will work without Alexia, which I will never have a need for. No problems with the software and we're able to print from any computer on the network without issue. - Scanning: As I stated above, there's no feed for the scanner, so you'll have to manually change pages if you have a multi-page document to scan. Not a problem for us, though, and my wife loves that she can scan a document straight to her thumb drive without having to bother me while I'm working. Overall quality is more than adequate for all but the most demanding scanning jobs. - Ink: With its foolproof design, filling the six ink tanks couldn't be easier, and after six weeks of use, including approximately 200 pages of image laden documents using the highest quality print level (which would have eaten up two 'XL' cartridges in my old printer), the ink levels in the ET-8500 have barely moved. Furthermore, refilling all six tanks cost only a little more than those two 'XL' cartridges would have. Very happy in this regard. - Print Quality: Even on regular paper at regular print quality, the ET-8500 hands-down smokes anything in its price range. Amp up the print quality and print to photographic paper and the results are absolutely jaw-dropping. Seriously, my brother is a professional large-format printer / sign maker, and the print quality from the ET-8500 rivals his $75,000 4' x 8' flatbed. Rich, vibrant colors pop from the page and are sure to impress even the toughest critic. This, in my opinion, more than makes up for the ET-8500 not being the fastest horse in the race. I will update my review should anything go south, but for now I give the ET-8500 a big thumbs up. For the quality you get, it is well worth the price in my opinion.

I ordered this to print a large batch of wedding photos in a variety of sizes, though I had been eyeing it for years for printing my other photos like landscapes. The printer was easy enough to set up and calibrate (although since it has a scanner, Epson could automate the alignment). I threw in some third party paper, selected a color profile, and was up and printing with good color and brightness in two or three prints. I have been printing 13x19's at a rapid pace, and the ink levels have barely gone down. Most of the cost of my prints seems to be the paper, by a wide margin. The print quality appears to be excellent, and an 11x17 with an inch margin only takes about five minutes to print! I have been avoiding borderless prints so far, as I have read that the ink can get on the rollers, and I can batch up smaller sizes onto a full sheet, then cut with a paper cutter. The maintenance tank shows slightly reduced capacity, so I'll be keeping one of those on hand along with extra ink. Wireless connection on Windows was very simple - the utility found the printer, so it was a one click operation. I have noticed that if my network is congested, prints can take a little longer, but I'm sending the full resolution image to the printer (rather than setting dpi and scaling before transmission), so some buffering delay is to be expected. I see that noise level is a recommended topic, and the printer really is quiet while printing, though there are some clunks at startup. Most of the time it's quieter than my laser printer.
