EcoTank ET-4750

This printer replaced my previous, the Canon Pixma MG6350. Years of problems with that one connecting, it took literally minutes to warm up for a single print. When you have kids and want pictures etc printed out fast it causes many issues. The ink was also prohibitively expensive, and ran out ludicrously quickly.The Epson is wonderful. I recommend watching a couple of YouTube reviews /unboxing as they demonstrate the simple ink filling process which ultimately is pretty satisfying. The cost benefit is ridiculously good. Thousands of colour and b&q print outs for the included ink? Incredible.The software is often a failing with printers but Epsons is (admittedly without bells and whistles) simple and reliable. There are apps to print from you phone and I have had no issues a few months in using it for personal work, for kids print out pictures of things they like and for documents. I haven’t used the photo print at all really, I just find the cost and ease of getting photos done professionally outweighs the benefit of home printing but for incredibly fast printing, copying, scanning this has it all. It’s not cheap but amortised over say 5 years especially with the ink pricing, and this will end up cheaper than printers that up front cost half or less.And it has a fax too should you ever need it for important documents!I am over the moon with it, it’s a wonderful machine. It does what a printer should do, and that for some reason is all too difficult, we’ve all had the same issues (finding the printer, cloud connection, troubleshooting paper jams and ink issues, cost of ink) this honestly has been the solution I’ve been looking for. Superb.

Has been a worthy successor to our lovely old xp-800 which had finally become less and less reliable. Sad to see it go, as it has been a great support with endless homework printing for about 7 years.The new one was ready to set up, integrated easily with Windows and google cloud print. Ink reservoir system a little more fiddly to set up at first but just pay attention to the instructions and all will be well.Easy to use scanner to upload to the cloud, email etc. Scans to local W10 PC, using Epson app, if you have reservations about cloud document storage.Comes with plenty of ink, and we have hardly begun to use the first batch in the reservoir.Print quality is good giving reliable printing from day one. Some tuning of Chrome to get best print quality, initially it was printing in eco mode, so everything was very pale.Only gripe is the screen is not touch sensitive (I think the next model up with a fax has that, but I no longer need a fax) but otherwise it is all good from my perspective.Much quieter too, which is always good.I expect this one too last as long as the xp-800 and cost a lot less in ink.

This replaced a Cannon MG5650 which was a complete load of rubbish that I put up for far too long after reading a positive review in a computer magazine.I love this printer. It's easy to use and setup, holds lots of paper and scanning large documents to the cloud is a breeze once you connect it to your google drive/dropbox/onedrive/or equivalent account. It has 4 ink reservoirs (large black, magenta, cyan and yellow) which can easily be filled by purchasing bottles of ink that then fit onto each reservoir and empty out via gravity. No mess no bother. Print speeds are great, especially compared to my old Cannon printer, which ran like a three-legged dog. I've connected it to my home internet using a network cable but it can easily be connected to home WiFi and USB as well. It has a small console that allows you to access the various printer functions which is adequate. All in all I'm very happy with this purchase. Print quality is also good. My son is doing GCSE art so prints lots of pictures and my wife and I print loads of documents and no-one has complained yet.My one gripe is that the printer did not come with all the ink colours. It came with one black, one magenta and two cyans which meant I had to order a yellow separately which arrived the next day. To be fair to Amazon, when I complained, they did knock off some money so I'm a happy bunny!
