Epson ET-2550

Quality is horrible. Prints are not legible. Constantly needs cleaning and nozzle check. Rarely, if ever, spits out a legible print. Complaints to Epson go unheeded. AVOID this overpriced printer!

Biggest piece of rubbish printer I have ever owned. Don't buy one.
Connectivity drop outs, prints fine one day and then not the next, paper jams when there is no paper jammed anywhere.
Not a user friendly scanner at all.
I'm going to a different brand now. Epson has lost my favour.

Absolute waste of money for such an expensive printer. I have had nothing but trouble with it!! One day it’ll print fine and then the next is just terrible. Absolutely appalling. Everyone should have a full refund or a replacement due to its actual inability to perform a simple task.

When it prints monochrome results are acceptable, but colour mode is simply terrible. A cheap printer could produce much better results. Now, for no apparent reason, it has lost connectivity with my computer (wifi). Scanning is a pain and controls are very difficult to read and navigate. This product is not fit for purpose.

I regret buying this printer and i suggest other to look for another one before buying this.
This printer take forever to print one page and it need maintenance every time you print few pages.
The quality of the print too weak too. So make sure this is the one you want it.

When the unit is printing, colour prints are of good quality. The double -sided printing function as absolutely useless as all of the left side prints need to be printed first before the printed output pages have to be turned over and refeed back into the printer.

As for the cost of the consumables for this laser model: Toner cartridges are seemly very expensive. I believe that this unit had the ability to produce quality output if double-sided printed output wasn't required.

print quality is terrible, but the worst thing is trying to get it connected, it just loses connection then it won't connect again, scanning will make you wanna smash it, if you manage to get it connected it takes about 15 minutes to scan 1 page. i have tried using USB connection can't get that to work either

Purchased this after researching ink tank based printers. After 6 months of use, tanks have been used about 1/3 for the colours, 1/2 for black. The printer is used every day in a small office, and it seems great.

The only problem is that it does not print double sided, which we would have liked.

Was after for a cheap ink tank based printer and saw these in a Harvey Norman store, 2 years worth of ink seem to seal the deal, no more paying for expensive ink cartridges.

Didn't come with a usb cable but had a old one lying around and worked.

The only flaw I've found is the it prints out printed pages which are in reverse order which is pain but can live with it.

print quality - ok with black but colour has lines and simply wont print without them
Network issues since day one. have logged support request and will feedback on support experience.
have tried everything regarding thew network issue and it simply goes to sleep and wont reconnect.

I can factory reset router and also the printer and then the whole cycle starts again.

Do not buy Epson

The Epson ET-2550 constantly drops the WiFI connection. The router is 30 feet away in a direct line of site to the printer. It is next to the computer. No other WiFi connected devices have any problems with my router. There is no included USB cable. It is very difficult to reconnect - the provided software is useless. Literally had to reinstall everything twice.

Not worth the hassle.

Never buying an Epson product again.

I am disappointed in this printer. I brought it because I liked the idea of not having to buy ink cartridges all the time and thought that it would save money in the long run. The ink has lasted well but every now and then I get printing problems like one colour not printing or sections not being printed out. I have never had problems like that with the cheaper printers that I have had in the past. It's very frustrating not being able to rely on it to print properly when I need it. Needs a bit more refining to make it worthwhile buying.

Not long after getting the printer it printed with lines and imperfections which would not clear up from alignment or cleaning. From trying to fix the issue, realigning and cleaning the head the ink pad is now full/needs replacing. Once the ink pad needs replacing the printer locks up and is unusable. Epson designed the printer so it's not user replaceable. Epson doesn't have their own service centre in Brisbane, and the third party repair is way out it out town. What a piece of crap product and company.

Extemelhy bad printer. I purchased less than a year ago. Very poor quality printing. It dos not print in color nor black and white. The background printing is fuzzy yellow. A Big Scam! Please do not buy this printer it is a waste of money and does not provide the number of prints as it promised.

The printer and scanner have worked well for 6 months now.
There have been no paper feed problems.
There have been a number of software updates that were painless.
Ink levels have only reduced by about 20%, so they should last about another 2 years - great.
My only negative comment is that printed pages are in reverse order and have to be manually reordered.
I am happy with my purchase.
