Epson EcoTank ET-3843 Wireless Color All-in-One Cartridge-Free Supertank Printer with Scanner, Copier, ADF and Ethernet-for The Ultimate Home Office, White

So far, day 2... post setup and test, great. It is a little lighter than my previous Epson Workforce, but I wouldn't describe it as flimsy. Well, with the exception of the paper loading tray side rail. That sticks and seems dangerously flexible. It was a joy to watch the ink bottles fill their reservoirs. It actually is a clean and drip-proof loading process... a little scary to invert that bottle of ink and stick it in the receptacle, but it worked! The important thing about the setup is to use their guided smartphone system and follow each step meticulously. I found it was smart to "measure twice cut once". It's tempting to decide you know where they're going and move ahead. Don't do it! Follow each step stupidly and mechanically. It told me the software was up to date immediately. Later, it decided it needed to download an update. Just be patient and follow its laborious thinking process. It gets there eventually. Overall the setup was easy. Print quality, as you would expect, is excellent. I also printed a photograph on plain paper. It was, as you would expect, a little on the muddy side. It objected to using plain paper for photograph, rightfully so. I inserted some glossy photo paper in the supply tray, and it did a good job. Again, the photograph was a 9 out of 10, but this is a home printer. Some reviewers dislike the display. I find it eminently usable. I chose the tile option, and the controls work intuitively, with drop-down menus at each step. Set up of my Android smartphone, my wife's iphone, and my laptop were all pretty straightforward. Again, there was a little confusion about whether my software was actually up to date or not, but it figured that out by itself. The apps work fine. Overall, it seems to be well-designed and high quality. It is quieter than I'm used to. I like the automatic document feeder, the paper supply tray being on the front rather than the back and, of course, the high capacity ink tanks. So far, I'd recommended it. Update: day 4. I spent an hour yesterday on the phone trying to install their computer app on my computer. It was very difficult to communicate with both of the technicians in customer service. They were distracted and didn't seem to be listening when I'd say something. The spoke good English. For example, the easy set up process from day two doesn't get you the latest software. You have to download a package which they don't tell you about. In trying to set up a password, the printer kept refusing. The technician and I kept ending up on a screen that was generated when Epson created one of those long 16 digit passwords. I didn't want to use that, I wanted to generate one I could remember. I explained that and she said tap okay and go to the next screen. When I did, the next screen asked me for my password. Of course, this was the password that was displayed on the previous screen that she told me not to copy. It turns out that when people do copy and paste they sometimes include an extra blank and that slows the whole process down. Instead, they want me to write down a 16 digit password with no errors and then copy it, again with no errors into the next screen. Their software programmer is a little dense. The software also asked me at least seven times for my email address. I got very tired of retyping it over and over again. You would think that, like most software on the internet these days, it would remember my password the first time I typed it and it would auto fill it. No such luck with Epson. The next day I wanted to scan a document to my computer. It kept giving me an error message on my computer that the scanner was busy, even though it had finished scanning. When I called tech support it took 20 minutes to figure out that you shouldn't scan from the display on the scanner/ printer; you should go to your computer and install their Epson scan software and scan using that. In order to get to this conclusion it took us numerous tries to try to get my computer to talk to the IP address on the scanner. It turns out that if you have any other programs open on your computer at the same time it can't do it. Executive summary: the printer/scanner seems to be a good product. The software is unfinished and buggy. It is 15 years behind the times in terms of usability. Good luck!

À date j’adore , compact, facile a comprendre, facile a connecter avec nos tablette, iPad et cellulaire. Remplissage de l’encre facile aussi . Très bon achat

ME GUSTO, PERO ES LENTA PARA IMPRIMIR Y SE TARDA AUN MAS CUANDO ES A DOBLE CARA.

My husband bought this printer to replace on that stopped working after so many years although it took a bit to set it up, love how quiet it is, how easy our devices can connect and the best part..it’s completely wireless! The design and ink tank is supposed to save money…so time will tell. It’s a little bigger than our old printer, but still compact. I love how the tray is automatically comes out when printing and then can hide away when not being used at the touch of a button. I think it’s a good investment

Coming from a fussy cartridge printer that was almost never happy with it's ink levels; always demanding new cartridges and refusing to print black and white because I was "low on Cyan". So I open the box and I'm immediately met with what I can only describe as LAUGHABLE amounts of ink! And it's ALL MINE meaning I'm not going to be throwing half of it away in the form of purportedly "empty(tm)" cartridges. Boy oh Boy! Well, setup went fine even though I have odd preferences (changing names, wired only, manual IP, etc...). It was as flexible as I needed it to be. The control panel isn't touch screen so it's a bit fussy for this amount of input but I knew that going in. Not much of an issue day-to-day. Print quality seems fine; I'm not an artist or photographer. I love that the paper tray holds 250 sheets. Printing and scanning working fine from our Macs and airprint working fine from mobile devices without needing any downloads. By which I mean to say in my opinion don't install the Epson software if it's not needed -- leave well enough alone. Glad that it doesn't use heated printheads (it was the heat that killed our old Canon). My only complaint so far is the power button which "breathes" (brightens and dims) continuously when on standby and the brightness cannot be adjusted. Well a bit of blue tape will take care of that I guess. Happy printing!
