Epson EcoTank Pro ET-5850 Wireless Color All-in-One Supertank Printer

IT works great and it was amazing quality! I loved how fast it was and I had no problems with it.I connected easy with my computer. (chrome)

I recently (actually 2x) purchased the EcoTank Pro ET-5850 with high hopes, given its promise of a cartridge-free system. Unfortunately, my experience has been far from satisfactory. The printer failed twice, necessitating replacements each time. I also encountered significant difficulties connecting the printer to my computer, which cost me several hours of troubleshooting. Ultimately, I switched to an HP model, which has been working without issue. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend the Epson EcoTank Pro ET-5850. For those considering a reliable office printer, I suggest exploring alternatives, particularly from HP. This experience has led me to advise against purchasing this specific Epson model.

This printer has been giving us nothing but issues since we bought it for our home office. Constant connection issues. Printer gets clogged often or something because it always looks faded no matter what I do. I bought this printer because it looked like it has good reviews but maybe people who have issues such as I just want to just toss this crappy printer out the window and not ever look back again. I'm going to have to cut my losses and move to a different brand.

I just received my printer. I love it it’s fast and very easy highly recommend the printer

I bought this for my classroom (with personal money) and have been extremely happy with it. It prints quickly. It seems our copiers are always on the fritz, so I am thankful I have a reliable printer!

This printer does more than we need, but I’d we need the options it has we have it. Also a big deciding point were the ink tanks because ink cartridges are so costly.

Had it for a month, seems to be very economical with the ink, unlike our previous Brother printer that ate toner every month to the tune of over $300. Easy to connect wirelessly with all our computers. Very happy so far.

This printer has been nothing short of exceptional. Replaced previous HP printer for the cost of the cartridges and I've been saving ever since. Quality prints. Fast production. Would highly recommend.

I am a (formerly) loyal HP customer. I've always had HP printers/scanners. I made the decision to get this printer because the ink on my HP Color Laser was averaging $800 every 6 months, which is absolutely ridiculous. I chose this model after reading Consumer Reports and learning the EcoTanks have fabulous quality and INEXPENSIVE ink. And it's TRUE. This is not a color laser, but the quality has been GREAT and I'm so glad I made the decision. Also, ink level is so easy to see on the front panel and filling the tanks is easy and no mess.

I purchased 2 of these for my small business hoping to cut down the cost of toner for my existing all-in-one units. What a mistake. Pros: 1. Ink lasts a long time and it is easy to fill 2. Nice interface on the touchscreen 3. Scanning via the computer interface is smooth and simple 4. Connection to my LAN was great and able to set a static IP address 5. Two paper trays 6. Print quality is pretty decent but doesn't match laser Cons: 1. Paper handling is TERRIBLE. If printing more than a 1 page document it will more often than not (greater than 90% of the time) grab multiple sheets of paper and either print a blank sheet or have print on about an inch of text on one page and then continue on the next. This is a deal breaker for printing multiple page documents and wastes a significant amount of paper and time. 2. Duplex printing is extremely slow and not reliable because of paper handling. See Cons #1 3. Duplex scanning is tedious I do a lot of research on products before purchasing and I typically take negative reviews with a grain of salt because often time it is buyers remorse or user error. However, I wish I would have taken the bad reviews to heart because I'm stuck with 2 VERY expensive paperweights that I can pretty much only print single page documents with. If Epson could get the paper handling issues resolved this would be a pretty fantastic machine!!

We have about fifty printers at our office and all are toner type printers. This is our first ink jet and we love the savings, quality of the prints and the ease of refilling the ink. We are starting to order more of these for our staff.

Bought this as a home office printer. Both ADF and tray paper feeder constantly (I'd say 90% of the time when printing or scanning more than 3 pages) grab too many pages. This effectively makes the ADF useless for document scanning, as it regularly misses pages and jams frequently. Complete deal breaker. Scan to cloud also not working. Very disappointed, as there are many great features to this printer, like the supertank, Bluetooth connection, scan quality, etc.

#100017 scanner error cannot be fixed - I cannot scan - requested help but Epson avoids people with problems.

Returning it due to poor performance. At this price point we expected ease of use, which is NOT what we got. It was difficult to install onto our computer and wont stay "connected". We found multiple other people with the same issue online. I only wish we had seen them before the purchase and now I have to pay to return it.

1. Doesn't feed paper correctly. Constantly jamming. 2. It leaves blank strips on color printed sections & its not consistent page to page. Two identical pages the first one may have the issue and the second page printer ok. 3. Gets a filter air most of the time printing from a MAC. The log indicates connectivity issues but the blue connection is solid. It may print 1 of 2 pages. First page prints of the print job and then Try to print again and you get the filter message. Happens with multiple iMacs. 4. Seems to not like MAC's but Win OS work better. 5. Have not figure out of it will print two sided so unsuccessful 6. The Bottle loading is easy a plus 7. I also like the scanning. However I go to scan & it tells me to install the scanning software on the PC which has already been completed. It does scan though even though I get the message. 8. I need to spend time to figure out why it doesn't print like I feel like a $900.00 printer should. Currently is print asa if it was a $49.99 special!

Overall this is a nice little printer for our office. It is quiet and does not take up much space. I thought it would hold more paper in the drawers. Also, we have had a great deal of paper jams already and it is cumbersome to clear those out. It also misfeeds paper frequently, it will grab 7-8 sheets of paper to print one page. Not sure if we have a setting that needs adjusted but right now, I am not convinced I bought the best printer for our needs.

Wow! This printer is so easy to set up! The instructions were very clear with step by step pictures and directions. It took me about an hour to go from set up to printing my first page. The disc included, to download the software to my laptop was simple to download. Everything I needed to connect the wireless function was set up and written very clearly. The printer’s touchscreen was super easy to follow, and I was up and running with little effort. I was a little worried about the dripless ink and filling the tanks, however, I was worried for nothing! Every single drop of ink went straight from the bottle to the printer tank. Amazing! I also found that I am able to now print from my computer or my phone! Many times I had to email myself a document to print from my computer. Being able to print from my phone is a huge time saver! The printer is quick and quiet compared to all the other printers I’ve ever owned. Being able to print 6000-7500 pages without changing ink is perfect for my monthly printing budget. I am thrilled to be printer cartridge free! The touchscreen is very user friendly and intuitive. With my different sized printing needs, it’s perfect for the variety of paper sizes I need. “This is a review for the Epson EcoTank Pro ET-5850 Supertank Printer that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.”

First things first. This printer is super simple to setup. Its pretty common sense really. I pulled off all the tape holding things still, Released the printhead, filled the ink resovior with the ink bottles and set up on my network! It doesn't get any easier than that! “This is a review for the Epson EcoTank Pro ET-5850 Supertank Printer that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.”

Setting up this printer was fairly easy and did not take very much time. The install process for the software on my computer took a little while, but it wasn't confusing. The only problem I ran into was connecting it to my internet network. I connected it directly on the printer, and although it connected, it said the signal was weak. When I tried to search for the printer through my computer, it said it couldn't be found. I had to bring my laptop downstairs and connect my computer with a USB cord and setup the network that way, and then the signal was strong and my computer identified it just fine. Not really sure why that happened, but glad it worked out in the end. Secondly, I'm so glad I can finally print something without having to bring my laptop downstairs each time. The printer is super quick, and I have not received any errors when trying to print anything. It properly shows up as the first option in my printing options. I also thought it was awesome that it came with a good supply of ink! This is a review for the Epson EcoTank Pro ET-5850 Supertank Printer that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review

I'm really impressed with Epson-EcoTank Printer! It's the best printer that I have ever used. I love the speed, print quality and ease of use. The set-up was very simple and fast. The included instructions walked me through each step perfectly. I have never used a refillable ink printer and really like how simple the compartments were to fill. There was no mess and the bottles stop filling when the tank has reached the max amount. I think the longest part of the whole process of setting the printer was waiting for the ink to charge. It was great. They also give you two bottles of each color ink to fully fill up each reservoir with some spare ink left over for future use. I like how you can see the amount of ink that is left from the outside of the printer and how the number used for ordering is located right by where you fill the ink for easy reordering. Printing is fast and easy. I downloaded the Epson iPrint on my phone and have printed out several items and I have had no issues. I appreciate the simplicity of being able to print directly from my phone. My previous wireless printer would sometimes give me problems. I would have to take the extra time to print from my desktop. My children have also printed several items from their Chromebook for school and they love how easy it is. They also love how the tray slides out automatically when the printer starts printing. I like the two-sided printing. It creates less waste and is more efficient. I'm happy how quickly items print. It's very fast even on color detailed pictures. The print quality is amazing. I am definitely going to be printing out my pictures from home from now on. I really like the 4.3" touchscreen. It's very responsive to touch and there several settings and maintenance option that can be accessed from the screen.You can also see the Job status including completed tasks with time and dates. There are a ton of options and things that can be done just from the printer touchscreen. I think what I'm most excited about is the refillable ink! It's so annoying when one color from a cartridge is out and the whole set needs to be replaced. It gets very expensive over time and it seems very wasteful. The bottles to fill the tanks for this printer are very reasonably priced and last a long time. “This is a review for the Epson EcoTank Pro ET-5850 Supertank Printer that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.”
