## Description

The EcoTank Photo ET-8550 wireless all-in-one prints lab-quality, wide-format color photos, graphics and everyday documents — all at an incredible value. Epson’s cartridge-free, 6-color Claria ET Premium Ink system delivers vibrant colors and sharp text for all your creative projects. With low-cost replacement ink bottles, print 4" x 6" photos for about 4 cents each compared to 40 cents with cartridges (1). Print everything from borderless 13" x 19" photos to customized CDs/DVDs. You can even print on cardstock and other media up to 1.3 mm thick. For added convenience, each set of bottles lets you print for up to 2 years (2). Plus, save up to 80 percent with replacement ink bottles vs. ink cartridges (3) — that’s about $2,000 on each set (3). The EcoTank Photo lets you do it all with affordable in-house printing. Epson strongly recommends the use of genuine ink to ensure optimal print quality and performance. Use of non-genuine ink could cause damage not covered under the printer’s limited warranty. | 1.

Review: Great quality prints, surprisingly fast and cost-effective. - I ordered this to print a large batch of wedding photos in a variety of sizes, though I had been eyeing it for years for printing my other photos like landscapes. The printer was easy enough to set up and calibrate (although since it has a scanner, Epson could automate the alignment). I threw in some third party paper, selected a color profile, and was up and printing with good color and brightness in two or three prints. I have been printing 13x19's at a rapid pace, and the ink levels have barely gone down. Most of the cost of my prints seems to be the paper, by a wide margin. The print quality appears to be excellent, and an 11x17 with an inch margin only takes about five minutes to print! I have been avoiding borderless prints so far, as I have read that the ink can get on the rollers, and I can batch up smaller sizes onto a full sheet, then cut with a paper cutter. The maintenance tank shows slightly reduced capacity, so I'll be keeping one of those on hand along with extra ink. Wireless connection on Windows was very simple - the utility found the printer, so it was a one click operation. I have noticed that if my network is congested, prints can take a little longer, but I'm sending the full resolution image to the printer (rather than setting dpi and scaling before transmission), so some buffering delay is to be expected. I see that noise level is a recommended topic, and the printer really is quiet while printing, though there are some clunks at startup. Most of the time it's quieter than my laser printer.
Review: The most satisfying ink jet printer I've ever used - The TLDR for this is the review title. It cost about $200 US more than I wanted to pay, and I tried mightily to find something else that was cheaper! But in the end, this was the only printer that I could actually say met my needs to support my serious "artsy" amateur photographer large print habit. I am pleased to say that it is worth every cent. I've had it about a week, and I've printed a LOT of photos (Maybe 30, or so), just to test it out. And the ink tanks aren't even down to the 25% used level. All printer Ink is expensive, but the way the Epson Ink is packaged and sold, it is projected to save the typical user about 80% in ink costs over the life of the printer. I believe this is a reasonable estimate based on my current usage, and I haven't even started my real printing yet. The print quality is excellent. Is it as good as one of those giant commercial grade printers? Probably not. But when I used good Epson and Canon printer paper, I thought it was as close as I could reasonably get for something that costs less than $1000 US. To be honest, I also printed on cheap Kodak paper, and while it wasn't quite as sharp and the color wasn't quite as accurate as the premium paper, it was still more than adequate, GOOD, even. Certainly good enough that Granny, Gramps, and Mom are not likely to notice. So cheap paper is not off the table for some print jobs. It's reasonably quiet and well built. My office area is right below my bedroom and I have no fear of it being heard up there. It's big and heavy and doesn't make the table it sits on wobble; it's rock solid. I like the large color LCD screen. I haven't had to clear any paper jams yet but access for clearing them is from the back and very easy to get to. The only negative I've encountered is that the auto select for which paper tray to use is unreliable. I've found that manually selecting the paper tray reduces the amount os swear words I use during the day! Go with the manual tray selection, or your kids will learn words you don't want them to know. I tried the scanner once, it works well, but is no better than any other all-in-one printer. I suspect all the printers of this type use the same type of scanner, possibly from the same manufacturer. You won't hate the scanner, but it's not going to stand out in your mind either. This is the perfect All-In-One printer for serious photographers on a budget who need to use paper that is 13 inches wide. If you can get by with standard letter size printer paper there is an almost identical printer that is a bit cheaper, but delivers all the other features of this one. (ET-8500) I am VERY happy with this printer, and I would buy it again, and I would recommend it to a friend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How is it considered a 6 ink system, when 2 bottles are the same black?**
A: According to one review: "The sixth ink is a pigment-based black which is better for text documents because it is more robust than dye." Each of the black inks have a specific purpose in printing: one for text, and one for image.  The printer has a greater tonal range due to the grey ink as well.  Also, use proper paper.  I have compared the same image on different papers: the Epson paper (glossy, semi-glossy) provide a deep black.  I also use HP paper, but the Epson paper gives me a deep black, while the HP can often provide a deep black with a very slight purple tinge; you have to look real hard, but it is there.  When I was working with SIGGRAPH, a computer graphics society, we published our journal, which used a double black.  A black on a black.  Printing color has a lot of history, and I suggest developing your own work process, which will eventually provide better images for you in future use.  I use an ET-3750 color Epson printer: I use that for printing color brochures, and anything which does not require critical specifications for color printing (although it prints beautiful glossy images as well).  I use the ET-8550 for wide format images.  There are YouTube videos regarding this printer, and some discussions regarding color print testing.

**Q: Trying to print photo christmas cards (matte finish).  What are some good paper optio s?**
A: Red River Paper makes a wide variety of awesome greeting card papers.  I have probably printed 3000 cards with the 8550 so far and they do awesome in this printer.  I really love that they have several weight options for matte, and they offer linen and canvas cards as well  in multiple sizes.

**Q: Does the epson ET-8550 print for heat transfer sublimation?**
A: YES, the ET-8550 can be used "out of the box" for sublimation printing as long as you have sourced the 6-color sublimation ink.  Do not use the ink that comes with the printer for sublimation, you'll just contaminate your tank.

It is likely that doing this will void the warranty, but you'll have the best-looking and largest sublimation prints!

**Q: Can I print heavy cardstock?lake a 110**
A: I have printed greeting cards on presentation paper 179 gsm and card stock 199 gsm.

### ⭐ First Bad Review I've Ever Left...On Anything
*by S***H on October 18, 2022*

I make a point to never leave bad reviews. I don't like the idea of putting negativity out in the world. BUT MY GOD I HATE THIS PRINTER. Before purchasing I read (and still see) so many great reviews, so I'm willing to concede that maybe I just got a total lemon. But if I hadn’t spent $800 on this printer, I would've chucked it on week one. Printers can be fussy, but I've never experienced so many different issues that I can't even pinpoint a potential problem. I'm going to allow myself one glorious meltdown venting session. Bc this printer is worth it. The manual feed on the back works about 1/10 attempts. At best. Error after error message even though everything was completed 100% to spec. I've stopped using the manual feed completely, and have conceded that even though I purchased this printer SPECIFICALLY for the ability to print on cardstock and other thick paper stocks, this is simply not a feature I get to use. Ever. I am not a stupid woman, nor am I technologically challenged. * This is not user error. * When I use the top paper feed, anything above basic print quality produces lines. When I try to realign the print heads to fix this, it will only select from one particular print cartridge for this, and the paper folds and crumbles in the interior (even though all the back manual feed equipment is properly reinstalled) and has to be carefully pried out by hand, so bc it only accepts paper for print head alignment, etc, through THIS ONE paper feed, I have not been able to realign the print heads. I get decent enough prints from the basic print setting, but I'm prevented from printing higher quality. As a professional artist, this is not okay. As I sit here venting on Amazon for the first time ever, the printer sits beside me, refusing to accept print commands from my computer wirelessly even though it says it's connected. So I transferred my 12x18" image to an SD card to print directly from the unit, but for some reason, the printer tells me that 12x18" is not a valid paper size and refuses to print, even though it has (in the past) via wireless connection. My only other option was to connect the printer directly to the computer (with a wire that is NOT included with purchase). Right now, it's pretending to print. It's a liar. I hear a single print line being created once every 30-45 seconds. It's been doing this for about 15 minutes, and I'm guessing I have about half an inch of my image completed in that 15 minutes. Have I mentioned the weird chugging sound it makes...all the time? This MUST be an anomaly. Maybe everyone else received a perfect printer and I got a factory reject that slipped through inspection. I am a professional artist and photographer, and rely on the sale of prints to help support my work. I have an event this weekend and at this point I am quite screwed. Could I go back in time, I'd purchase anything else. I hate this printer more than I hate any other item in my studio/office...and I sit next to a litter box.
