[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Epson is truely helping this and future generations by designing better and faster printing hardwares The huge and. Easy to fill ink tanks will put the drudgery of replacing cartridges in the past Unpacking the printer is easy and its supper lightweight. The four (4) tanks fill in about a minute each. There is a long waiting time for it to pump and fill the printgeads and download new firmware. So after a half hour I was all set. The ET2800 will make up for this investment of time by producing clear and sharp Black and White prints at the rate of 10 pee minute. The app allows wireless WiFI scanning and printing. Color prints are clean and streak free. Time will tell but so far five stars I hope to see more printers use the tank standard so ink becomes easy to keep on hand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved this printer it is very practical, connecting it to my phone and my laptop was very easy, the colors are well defined I give it the 5 points. It comes with a one set of ink

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quite happy with it. Only problem is that if the wifi signal is not strong enough not all the data will reach the printer. Just my evaluation.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having grown up with ink jet, i was curious and pleasantly surprised with the concept of the ink tanks. Setting up the printer via the app for mobile printing was very simple and straight forward. each step was walked through one at a time as if you were chatting with customer service (see picture). Prints really well and is easy to use from mobile and computer. It is pretty slow to print when printing colour, but i may be spoiled from coming from laser. I had switched to laser some years ago because of how irregularly i'd print things. With kids getting older and in school, i've been using it more for work sheets and what not. Curious to find out how long the ink lasts in these tanks compared to cartridges. The control panel is easy to use and navigate, but feels flimsy and i find myself holding it up while i press a button since its on a hinged panel. Would feel more confident if it was sturdier, especially because since kids would be using this, i'd worry they may push too hard and potentially damage it. I also wish the paper feed was a little larger. with the load tray being out the top of the printer it doesn't have as much room to hold paper as say a printer where you can leave a whole pack on the bottom and have it print and output the page through the top overall there are a lot of features and if you need colour, then its definitely a good option. Since you don't need special cartridges, i imagine that will open up the alternatives for ink refills, but you may not want to bother since these bottles are really reasonably priced and should last a long time anyways.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] --- SETUP --- The process for setting up the printer takes around 15 minutes. It’s quick to fill each ink tank with ink. However, there is an ink process that takes 11 minutes alone. The good thing is that, while that is happening, you can use the app to do other things you need to make the printer functional, like connect it to your WiFi setup. --- FEATURES --- This printer allows you to scan, copy, and wirelessly print from a computer or your phone. It is also cartridge free, so the ink goes directly into ink tanks inside the printer. --- PERFORMANCE --- The printer is made for home use, so the review will reflect home use. Note that there is a difference between home use and home office use. This review is specifically for home only. The Epson 2800 can print around 10 pages of black and white or 5 colored pages per minute. One color picture took around 4 minutes on an 8 ½ by 11 inch ultra premium glossy paper. The photo image came out pretty close to the picture I sent from my phone. As far as printing documents on regular paper, the printer is top notch in the quality department. I was able to get 10 pages of black and white and 5 pages of colored paper within a minute's time. Scanning worked great too and I was able to send the image to my computer. I recommend you download the Epson suite for the printer to give you these advanced features. Other than that, this printer doesn’t have many bells and whistles but it will save you on buying ink, as a pack of colored ink bottles comes out to around 45 bucks and the black ink bottle comes out to 20 dollars. The ink is to last you for 2 years and can be refilled before the entire ink tank is consumed, so you can always have backup ink saved when you need it most. --- EXPECTATIONS --- For the price, I would have expected this printer to have a front or rear loading paper tray. Instead, it has a paper feed where you can fit 100 regular sheets of paper that will be visible the entire time. Because of this, the printer is also only capable of printing single-sided. Though this is meant for home use, in today’s age, most people have a use for double-sided printing. For the price, I feel like both of these lacking features will be a disappointment to consumers. Essentially, what ends up happening is that you are paying a higher price upfront for the printer but end up saving in the long run if you keep the printer long enough. Think back to your last printer. If you had that for more than 2 years, then this would be a good investment for you. In my experience, though I do have printers at home that have lasted more than 2 years, I don’t think I’ve consumed 2 years worth of ink from them. The higher upfront cost doesn’t justify the savings that this printer will bring. --- APPROVAL --- The Epson printer will serve the needs of students or people who don’t print large quantities of paper at once and also don’t need to print double-sided. If you are one of the above, then this printer is for you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] REVIEW: EPSON - ECOTANK ET-2800 WIRELESS COLOR ALL-IN-ONE CARTRIDGE-FREE SUPERTANK PRINTER WITH SCAN AND COPY MODEL:C11CJ66202 GOOD QUALITY – BASIC SUPERTANK ALL-IN-ONE PRINTER / SCANNER The ECOTANK ET-2800 WIRELESS COLOR ALL-IN-ONE CARTRIDGE-FREE SUPERTANK is winning me over. The scan quality is actually very good, and the print quality is good. Actually, the color printing is more clear than the black printing in my tests. If you need a good no frills all around color printer / scanner the - ECOTANK ET-2800 WIRELESS COLOR ALL-IN-ONE CARTRIDGE-FREE SUPERTANK is a safe bet. It does not win any speed records, but the quality is overall pretty good. When I compare scans at 600DPI to other scanners I have, it is almost identical (see pics). The scans from the Epson were a touch softer, but the Epson did better at capturing brighter images. The print speed is slow, especially at high quality, but within stated specs (so no points off). As an example, I printed our 15 page appraisal report from our realtor. It contains a mixture of text, pictures, and charts. It took about 10 minutes to complete the printout. I would suggest you download and install the PC software from the Epson site to be able to use advanced features when scanning. I used the suggested Android app to scan and print which worked easily enough, but the results were poor, event when set to HQ. Still, if you need to print from your phone, it is probably not a situation that requires high quality. PRO’s - Very Good Scanning - Good Enough Printing Quality for Occasional use - WiFi Connectivity - Copy Feature does not require a pc and works very well (see pic) WHAT IS A SUPERTANK PRINTER? Back in the olden days (5-15 years ago), you bought a color ink jet printer for $59, but then the ink cartridges were up to $80 each (possibly even for each color). For infrequent users, often times, the ink would dry up before you came anywhere near using all the ink. So, off to the store to spend another $100 on ink. My solution at the time (15 years ago) was to get a color laser printer although more expensive ($500) initially, it allowed me to run 1-2 years before needed to replace cartridges. A few years ago all the ink jet makers started to switch to a supertank method where you initially pay a little more for the printer, but it usually comes with enough ink (via poured in bottles of ink) to last a few years for average home use. We probably print 5-10 pages per week. We have a different supertank printer (without scanner) and after 1.5 years we have only used about 1/2 of the included ink. I have a small concern about how fast I’m already burning through ink on the ECOTANK ET-2800 WIRELESS COLOR ALL-IN-ONE CARTRIDGE-FREE SUPERTANK. I’ve printed about 30 pages (HQ and lots of pics) and my ink levels are already down about 20% from where I started. Fortunately, INK is only $14 / bottle. I normally don’t print pics or HQ, so I assume my consumption rate will decline. SETUP I’m not going to lie, just about every device (this one included) that tries to make you do setup over the phone app is a huge hassle. My advice is to do the setup manually from the control panel screen on the printer and save yourself from pulling your hair out. (I don’t have that much to lose anymore). I followed the quick start guide and tried to do the install form the phone app. At first it could not see the printer on the default screen. Then I hit “menu” and “+” to add a printer, and it still was not seeing the printer. Then, as I started to power down the printer and suddenly it showed up in the phone app. I restarted the printer, and using the “+” method, it found the printer and nicely walked me step by step filling the ink and so on. Then it came time to enter my wifi information in the phone app for the phone to configure the printer. As soon as I hit “OK/SAVE” the phone lost contact with the printer and I could never get it back. Finally, I used the control panel on the printer to complete the WIFI setup, and this time it worked. The printer connected to my network, and it even found and downloaded new firmware without needing a screen. This time when I launched the phone app, the printer was found and I could scan / print from my phone, which was nice. SUMMARY / RECOMMENDATION If like me, you don’t print a lot (for home use) and sometimes need to scan, then the ECOTANK ET-2800 WIRELESS COLOR ALL-IN-ONE CARTRIDGE-FREE SUPERTANK does a very good job, without breaking the bank. If you need speed, then you need look at higher end models. The scanner is only a flatbed, so if you need a document feeder for scanning, then you need to look at a higher model. These are not negatives as the box even says right on the label “BASIC HOME PRINTER”. I can’t say it any better.

This printer cant sat its wifi direct. So frustrated. It doesnt come with usb cable just me aware. I trying to see if I can return because I am sick of fighting it to find connection. Also, I have printed maybe 5 page since I bought it, when I finally get it to work, it keep pausing asking me to check ink level and it doesnt finish printing!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was a awsome purchase. We use it all the tine for important documents to homework to even picture. The printer in easy to ues and comes with easy to follow intructions with an app that make it easy to print on the phone. It prints with good quality and me and my family enjoy it.

This printer is lightweight and very compact. Makes putting it in a tight space easy. Filling the ink takes a little time initially. Going through the instructions and doing everything step by step. However it is very simple to do as it tells you what to do every step of the way via the Epson Smart Panel app. The app even shows the levels of the ink. You load the paper into the back of the printer. It keeps it upright and out of the way. I like to fold in the printer tray when I’m not using. The buttons are super easy to push and the interface is very simple. Printing is relatively quick. The scanner is easy to use and the scan is clear. The one thing I wish this printer would include is a way to double print pages. Sadly there is not an option to do so. That’s a fairly big deal to me because I like to save paper and print on both sides of the paper and I can’t do it unless I manually put the paper back into the feeder after I print on one side to do the other. Not ideal for me. I love the eco tank. The ease of refilling the tank and the ink is supposed to last quite some time! One replacement ink pack will print up 4,500 black pages and 7,500 color pages. A very large amount of printing to do with replacement ink. Other than that 1 downside this printer is great! I received this product in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this eco tank printer in January 2022. I wanted for basic use but also to print photos of my art. Needed good quality printer and thought for the price it might work. My advice if you ever think you want to print a photo or any image. This is not the printer. I learned the hard way and now can’t return. I really thought I could get decent printing with this one. My mistake. Actually I had $30.00 printer that printed better than this one before it quit. The quality of printing color photos were beyond horrible.
