Epson WorkForce ET-3750 EcoTank Wireless Color All-in-One Supertank Printer with Scanner, Copier and Ethernet

Great for light home office use. I used to HATE InkJets, this printer helped me give Inkjets another chance. My preference for Black and White documents is any Brother B&W Laser Printer. My preference for economic Color documents is the Epson WorkForce EcoTank Printer (which I also use for Black & White documents now). Pros Size. If you compare the Epson WorkForce to the typical Color laser printer, there's a big difference in size and weight. A few years ago, I didn't realize how big and loud a color laser printer is until I bought it. This Epson WorkForce is a nice addition especially if you are limited on space. Cost. I love being able to replace a single color (Black, Cyan, Magenta, or Yellow) rather than the entire color cartridge. I no longer have to stress when the printer stops working when it needs yellow or print documents that look terrible. I hated throwing away ink cartridges that still had ink in it. It was a waste. Color laser printers are similar to this printer, since each color has it's own cartridge. However, for the typical home office color laser printer, the replacement can cost around $60 for ONE COLOR. For this printer it's less than $20 per color for OEM, less than $5 per color after market. Functionality. Wireless. Scanner. Copier. Duplex. This is not unique to this printer, but when I purchase a printer, I make sure it has... - Wireless capability so that I am flexible of where I place it and so that I am able to print from any computer with ease. - Duplex so it can print back and front Cons. Paper Tray. I'm used to larger capacities for paper. If you print out a hundreds of pages at a time, this may not be for you. Print Quality. The Print Quality is better than I expected but don't expect perfect. It gets the job done, it looks professional but don't buy this to print out the best prints. Printer Heads. With Laser printers you don't have to worry about printer heads. If you don't use your printer a lot, the heads my clog. You can clean to maintain it, but this may seem cumbersome. The bottom line: This printer provides a real solution to help customers save money on ink.

Like a lot of these reviews, I had a HP. It was always out of ink and expensive to refill. I look into 3rd party syringe filling but felt it would be messy and time consuming. I jumped at the chance for CIS Constant Ink System. It had its problems too numerous to list in this review, needless to say a couple years later I went to order more ink and found that most of it had been discontinued and not available. Hmm, what caused this? A little investigation revealed that most of the printer manufacturers had started making their own CIS or Tank printers! Finally, all of the benefits without any of the hassles! I was ALWAYS worried that the cat would knock the ink reservoir off the printer table and ruin my carpet, sheesh! I have nothing but good things to say about this printer! I have had no problems for the most part, I have occasionally had to power down and on again to connect to one of my computers in my home, my laptop as a matter of fact that runs a 2.4g connection through my home WI-FI, I really don't feel its any fault of Epson but rather a old WI-FI card on an old laptop I rarely use. I got the 3750 because the screen looked smallish (and it is) and I have big man fingers, works fine with the directional arrows beside the screen although I recommend wearing reading glasses to see it, lol. The ink has lasted a long time, a year and a half after purchase and I just opened the second 127 mL Black ink bottle. My wife is a elementary school teacher and this printer gets used 4 or 5 nights a week, if I had to guess were going through a ream or more of paper a month. Auto document feeder gave me a little grief until I figured out I was being a little too delicate with it, now I just ram a stack in there and it works just fine! So far I haven't had to perform any maintenance on this wonder machine i.e. clean the heads, re-align, …. all that jazz. Just fill it about every 6 months and put paper in it, simple! If this thing could cook food and clean my house I would marry it. I can't see myself owning any kind of printer ever again, if Epson ever stops making the Eco Tank line of printers I will pay serious money to get this one fixed. Not looking like I will have to worry about that anytime soon. Update, I purchased this July 2018, it is now October 2020 and I just now had to order ink, black ink to be specific as I still have half of my color from the original package. Printer works like the day I bought it with no problems. I haven't needed to perform any maintenance on the printer other than dusting it off, loading paper and topping off ink in the reservoir. This printer is a work horse, it definitely goes through a ream of paper per month with no problems. Software updates have been regular 1 or 2 a year so fairly unobtrusive. Once you start getting a little more forceful with the document feeder it stops being a problem. All in all I stand by everything I said before, awesome printer!
