Neat printer

Nice, but slow printer
Ecosystem is perfect
So slowly

The ET-3850 is a nice printer. Prints are good, not the highest achievable. I use it wired, so I am not bothered by possible WiFi connections that work poorly. If you read the reviews on Epson.com you won't be happy, but I think it's not too bad. People complain that it doesn't scan double-sided, but you know that when you buy it. Not that important to me. Prints are okay, scanning also works excellently. I think the ecotank system is great, no longer suffer from dried up cartridges. I have the impression that the software is still in need of updates, which is not always clear or logical. The screen is also a bit difficult to see, and therefore to operate. So place it high enough. My old XP-810 from Epson was a bit better and cheaper, and could also print CDs, which this one lacks. But the fact that you no longer have to spend gold money on ink was the deciding factor for me. Neat printer!

Expensive product for few options

1998 wants its scanning program back

I would leave this one and find another.

I am coming from an HP all-in-one, but wanted an ink tank. That is fine in itself, but for the rest this is a big step backwards in terms of possibilities.

It starts with turning it on. Press the power button. Wait. Again. Wait. One more time, this time a bit harder.... With a bit of luck it will finally turn on.

Then the scanning. It has an automatic document feeder. But it cannot scan double-sided. That is really something you can expect for this price.

Then the scanning itself. The scanning program that comes with it is really bad. This is really, really bad. You get a window with some buttons, which looks like it was made in 1998. Icons with thick pixels, half-working functionalities, simple options that you do not have (for example, specifying a file name, the program will determine that for you).

For this money you can really get a much better deal, and I would recommend getting a different brand if you get this kind of software with it.

Economical in ink use!

Ink lasts a long time
Beautiful finish
Installation takes a long time

This printer is only recommended because of the economical use of ink.
