Epson EcoTank Pro ET-5880 Wireless Color All-in-One Supertank Printer with Scanner, Copier, Fax, Ethernet and PCL/Postscript, White

I purchased the Epson ET-5880 for our small office to fulfill our need for a good color printer. I read a number of a reviews about the printer before making the purchase. Most were positive, so I went ahead and ordered the printer. I'm very pleased with this printer. I had no problem connecting it to our network. Installing the drivers on four computers was easy as well. I should note that the printer comes with a CD for installation, but I chose to use the NEWER drivers that were on Epson's website instead. You should do that as well. Filling the ink tanks on the printer was very simple. Not so much as a drop of ink was spilled. The ink bottles are keyed so that one cannot put the wrong color ink in a tank no intended for that color. Once filled, the unit goes through a charging process (Epson's term) to get ink to the print heads. Yes, it uses a little ink, but Epson also supplied a second set of ink bottles so that the ink tanks are full after the charging process. The printing is very fast, yielding high quality print. I suggest using 22 or 24 pound paper, especially if printing on both sides of the paper. I was particularly interested in seeing how this printer would handle scanning. I do a lot of two-sided scanning. The scanning software, SCAN 2 and SCANSMART, both worked well. SCAN 2 gives the user lots of options, but might be overwhelming to a newer user. The SCANSMART software is more visual and gives the user enough features to adjust and/or crop images as needed. The software does provide the option of creating a searchable PDF file, which is something I like as I deal in contract documents. Of course, one can print from a cell phone or tablet if desired. There's even a remote print feature where one can print via email from anywhere where there's an Internet connection. Overall, I'm pleased with this printer. It's not inexpensive, but it will easily meet the needs of a small office.

I've had this for 2 years now and have to say wow. It works flawlessly. The ink lasts for a very long time and prints perfect and fast. It has a lot of easy options that just work. Scan to usb, computer etc is great. The wifi works great and has huge paper trays that last a long time. I would buy again but it will be many years. The last one I had from this company lasted many many years.

This printer will throw errors even though things are working. Some examples are: 1) Printing from an Apple device you will get a “printer busy“ error, even though the print goes through. 2) When connecting to Wi-Fi, the printer will send a “password incorrect” error message, even though it connects to the Wi-Fi. 3) The windows desktop application cannot find the printer, even though you can print to it from that same machine. When calling Epson for Support, you will find people who insist you do things like go through the WPS procedure even though you tell them your router does not support WPS. You will be forced to go through steps until they say something like “now press the WPS button on the router“ when they will agree with you that your router does not support WPS. They will also take you a very long way to get to a ping command because that is what their documentation tells them to do, even if you’re well aware of how to start a ping in a much quicker way. Print quality and speed seem to be very good but, at this price point, the error handling issues and lack of adequate support are unacceptable. The result in a lot of frustration, wasted time and wasted paper/ink.

Packaging could be improved because printer was shipped in its retail box. The printer somehow survived the cross country trip at the expense of internal foam packaging. The printer does a very good job but of course it should because it's new. The paper output drawer is somewhat curious because it extends automatically but you have to manually push it in. Set up not exactly straightforward because printer started up with error messages (no paper) when actually full. This Epson has two paper trays. OEM ink is pricey, over $90 for 4 bottles. There are a lots of generic inks available but Epson wants you to buy theirs with a warning. The amount of ink this printer consumes is still being evaluated because upon set up, the ink empty printer must be setup and it does draw down the eco tanks level. This printer is fast but not as fast as the HP576DW it replaces. Wifi connection is reliable and printing using a mobile device is very good. More to come. I've just learned that the aforementioned powered output tray does retract with an on screen button. Ink consumption seems reasonable but the price is still high. Amazon has now reduced this printer 40%. Timing is everything.

I've been printing about 200 8.5x11 photos so far among couple sheets of basic black and white stuff so far. The first set of bottles (black and colours) will be loaded in the printer head and tube when setting it up; the second set of bottles is half through so far; expecting 400 photos printed on 8.5x11 photo (matte pigment compatible) paper. Since it's an all pigment ink (both black and colours), special photo paper are needed -- keep it in mind. Glossy regular paper is usually for DYE ink; not pigment. Beware (and search for Luster or Matte photo paper -- still searching tho) ! With that said, printing speed is awesome, cleanliness and characters refinement of the prints are all excellent. I cannot compare with similar priced printers tho but for a grand spent, well, it feels like it. Double paper tray is also very welcome to keep stuff far from dust as possible. On the very nice side, when you choose to scan a document from the printer touch screen, it allows it to be automatically transferred to your windows workstation over network. On the low side; after upgrading the firmware, the wifi connection tends to disconnect once every week; still testing to determine how often and what's the cause AND I will jack in an ethernet cable soon. Epson Canada support have been present and quick to respond -- suggesting a master reset then to communicate with then if nothing's changed. Fair enough. Software for Windows 11 can by invasive a bit but nothing an uninstaller can't handle. Keep in mind that ink level that Windows is aware of is only a wild guess; there is no actual real reservoir readout. I will post an update for a longer term review.

It works very well and is much faster than ET-4750 and ET-4760. The only draw back is that it seems to stretch a scan onto 2 pages sometimes.

Mala compra. Devolví la impresora y ya lleva mas de 2 semanas y no he recibido mi reembolso

This is the second time I bought the ET-5800 since April. The first one had to be returned because it has issues, but I really appreciated how fast I could print documents and it has two paper drawers. It came with two full sets of ink and I bought it for a great price. I definitely needed it for my business and am glad to have it in my office again.

The printer they sent me couldn't even be configured, they made me spend time and money to be able to return it, since they send garbage and even though I am a person with a disability I have to carry heavy loads and carry the product to be returned because of their errors
