Thanks mate you’re the first person that’s worked all the way through CZcams and I have been successful. Good luck
Glad I could help
The Ecotank line is so good! Changed my life! More than lays for itself over time. The amount I spent on ink before this was ridiculous.
yeah seems really good so far
Deffo 😊
We have one at work and it has been working for 2 years(going on 3), everyday, except on weekends.
Best printer I've ever used. We've changed the black 3 times and the color 2 times.
Scanner is amazing, absolutely clear.
Wifi connection is great, only had hiccups twice and easily remedied by restarting the printer.
Solid printer, would recommend if you need something that just works and has low maintenance.
awesome! thanks for letting us know
Is it any good for printing portraits/fotos on glossy paper ?
@@kylleven not really, colour is washed.
Dont often see a printer video, nice one Epson.....great to see them producing kit after all these years.
Glad you enjoyed it was a bit rusty but i think i covered all the important stuff
Thank you, Mike!
You are the best❤
Thank you too!
I just bought this printer and grateful for another informative video Mike, thanks for sharing!..
Glad it was helpful!
Very nice demonstration, Mike. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Excellent review and tutorial. Well presented and easy to follow. thank you, now have one on order.
Glad it was helpful! and hope you like it
Bought this printer based on this review. My first inkjet for years (have used laser for over a decade). Took far too long to set up, but once up and running, it seems to be quite usable. Best part, I like the inktanks at the front. and I strongly suspect, that's the only real reason I bought it 😁 - Thanks for this step by step, it was very useful!
Very helpful review. Thanks Mike
Thanks for watching! cheers John
I've had 2 second hand photo printers from Epson. With the price of cartridges absurdly expensive (and they sometimes emptied themselves just cleaning the heads) , you're forced down the 'cheapie' route. This causes more blockages and you enter into a sort of hell of running a clean because one head is blocked- which then seems to block 3 more... With an Ecotank (ET-8500) I've not had one problem now, that I just source all papers to the rear feeder. Highly reliable, dirt cheap (except for the original outlay- though another second hander!) and capable of producing good quality prints. Thanks, Mike for your wonderful service to tech-kind!
thanks daddy b
Thank you for this video!
You are so welcome!
Great, super straight forward! Gained a sub and like x
thank you very much
Always had Epson printers. Last one had 13years uses wifi for scans, photos & cds. Only issue is its never used so ink dries and cant be used , my fault entirely. As you say never knew how much ink really in those compatible cartridges. This Eco Tank system looks a godsend for regular users. Thanks for sharing Mike and Kath👍
hopefully this one will last for the next 10 years or so, the old one did about 5 or 6 which wasn't bad but in the end year the prints were very faded and bits missing, which is now a real problem with QR codes
Oh no. 😲Just seen this. Bought an hp printer last month complete with the smart ink plan. Epson have put a lot of thought into this. The trouble is with most printers the printer itself may be cheap but go and buy 2 new cartridges and they are not far off the cost of the printer. Lol.i will see how I get on with hp🙏 . I had an Epson about 15years ago and the print quality was amazing. Thanks for the excellent walk through. 👍
Excellent job on this review. I’m looking to buy one just undecided as of yet. This was very informative thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Regarding accidentally putting the wrong colour in the wrong area: I watched a different review which showed that actually the Epson Ecotank range ink refills have specially shaped heads for each type so that they actually *can't* connect to the wrong type, it would be literally impossible because the ink containers won't "click" into place unless they have the right connector. #socool!
yes this is true
Mike problem with most entry level tank printers is the lack of automatic duplex printing. That is a deal breaker for me
thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for the visit
Thanks for the video. I have ordered and plan to use WiFi. I hope it is easy as many are saying it isn’t. Big bonus is the ink pad seems a million times easier to get to and clean than my current printer (where the ink pad has just come to the end of its life)
I agree 100%
I just subscribed. Great content.
Awesome, thank you!
great vid
$282.45NZD. And much faster than my old Epson Ink Tank. So I don't have to print wireless, it will print via USB that's what I want. The ink collection is the deal for me, my last Epson ink tank now won't go because its ink collection is full and it's too expensive to get it replaced at the non-existent dealer in my town. Cool thanks
I have the 4750 and it's amazing. So cheap to run and just works.
Its a damn good printer
Crazy you have a Printer Today Im testing out a Thermal one 🙂 they say great minds think a like Mike haha Thanks for thhe Info as always Mike and Kath
Cool 👍
My ET-2875 can print dobbeltsided manually. But only whole documents. That is if you have a 100 pages document you can not only print 50 pages . I assume this is a software error but the agent seems uninterested to alert the manufacturer. ( the App for printing)
207,76 € here. 😞
Mike's Unboxing, Review & How to is Worthy of a Support comment. Like & a share 🙂
that isn't too bad a price
@@mikesunboxing I was wrong that was for the 2820. the 2810 cost 1 euro more 😀
Once, I had an Epson printer that refused to scan because there was no black ink left, even if there was still color. So I get rid of it and got a Brother. Since then, I can do everything, even printing, if there is no ink in the cartrige. I will keep it until it dies because I am pretty sure that there is new firmware crap in them too now.
You do understand how stupid that reasoning is?
I have one of these been great got sick of paying crazy prices for hp cartridges
seems pretty good so far
Thanks for the video Mike. Do you know if this printer can print single colors (i.e. pure CMY or K?). Most printers can do black alone, but it's hard to find one that can do CM and Y alone. Thanks.
not sure to be honest, i would think if your image is the same colour as the ink you want to solely use it should just use that.
nice printer... my old cannon on it way out... so maybe a epson.. cheers
worth a look and even the genuine bottled ink is pretty cheap compared with cartridges
Wondering is there a special way to lift the top fully if wanting to empty ink ( changing to sublimation)
Probably but not looked into it yet sorry
these printers are absolutely fantastic i got one in march i wouldn't go to anything else
I wish mine would go onto sleep mode though
@@mikesunboxing i have the et3700 think they do when not been used for awhile
Great vid. Going to buy one today. $329Au which is the cheapest I found for this unit. :))
Hope you have fun with it
I've got one two years ago... Compared to my old HP printer (which lasted almost 15 years, btw), this one may cost a bit more compared to traditional ink cartridge printer, but you get so much ink at a very little price, you can save a lot of money when printing everything at home! I started printing actual photos on photo paper not that long ago and the quality is amazing! The shown one here is similar to the one I have - it's the ET 2815.
If you want to save the environment and money on printers, get one with ink tanks! That's all I can advise here.
Great review, thanks for presentation. I currently doing research to buy good affordable printer for my scrapbooking graphics,it could be that one. Still searching
Glad it was helpful!
I had an XP760 before I changed to 2810. The previous printer used to wake up when you wanted to print I can't seem to get this one to do that. Am I missing a trick here, or do I have to leave it on all of the time?
yeah leave it on but you can change the sleep setting so it goes to sleep at predefined times
Best printer demonstration/review I've seen
I never had a printer from the USA hope this model is available. What kind of paper would I use. I'm assuming typing paper is ok, am I correct? Keep up the good work
thanks that is very kind of you to say. It is available in the US but has a slightly different model name over there. and yes normal a4 copy paper is fine, that is what we use for invoices etc
Hello and thank you for your excellent video, very helpful. I am about to purchase one of these and would like to know can I use the ink left over from my Epson ET-2550 printer for this model?
sort of but the epson folk make the plastics not quite the same for some models so might need a little user intervention to make it fit
Great review. The only thing that's unclear is can artists use cotton rag 300gsm fine art paper with EPSON ET 2810 Eco Tank for printing their art prints? Thank you
not sure sorry and can't find any info on that at the moment
Hi Mike, I’ve got the same Epson printer, but have just changed our internet provider, and I’m having trouble reconnecting to the new internet provider, have tried to connect with my Samsung mobile, and my Apple iPad with no luck, have you got any advice you can please help me with, Ray
have you recieved a new modem or router for your new provider? are you using your own router? probably needs to be reset on the printer and reconnect in the app or in windows epson software.
some good info here www.justanswer.co.uk/printers/leuvx-et-2810-printer-can-t-work-wifi.html
Can this printer do air printing using an iPhone? I don’t seem to be able to use airprint
i ended up installing espon print, it works really well and has more features
May u can make a video hoe to drain wrong ink from this printer. I think I purchased not sublimation ink and filled in. My printer isn't working right now.
Thank you
not sure but i will look into it
Can you scan multiple papers at once? Is there a slot to input papers you want scanned?
no sorry it doesn't have a multi document feed
my one is feeding the paper in crooked....any suggestions....checked everything i think mine maybe faulty
check for obstructions on the tractor feed and that all packing materials and tape are removed
Hi! I brought this at work and have got it set up however I can’t seem to set up via laptop and wifi - I want it on my laptop not my phone. Any advice???
My laptop doesn’t have a slot for the CD
you can download the windows PC setup files from the Epson website quite easily and it guides you through the setup process
Hi Mike, Debating weather to buy this printer or the cheaper hp deskjet 2710e. I only print documents and photocopy on occasion maybe three times a week maximum usually less. Which printer would be lower maintenance as if heard a lot about ink drying up or the printer not working if u don’t use it often. Are the rumours true. If so which one should I buy in my use case
sounds like your usage is very similar to ours, and no problems yet and the colour inks have barely moved, the black is down to about 6 8ths
@@mikesunboxing Would you go with the Epson over a cheaper alternative like a HP then?
Can the refillable tanks be swapped out? As I'd like to use sublimation ink for heat transfers, craft projects sometimes and then normal inks most of the time for daily paper printing? If so where can i purchase? Thanks.
not that i know of and also the tanks would need priming every time you swapped them out, so it wouldn't be very cost effective
The ecotank ink bottles have 65mls of ink in them.
thank you
Can you use a ink syringe to fill all them up
yes i would think so
So once its connect via a usb to my desktop pc, I disconnect the cable to connect all my other devices..., can I then reconnect the usb? Can't seem to find anything about this. 🤔
yes you can use either connection, wifi or wireless is often better for multiple devices, or usb for just one, or use windows printer sharing on your network
I've given up on refilling mine. My Epson EcoTank ET-28010b doesn't want to refill, purchased from Amazon last year and purchased refill from Amazon this week Epson band. I left one overnight in the printer to refill but still didn't refill. What could be the matter please?
They are keyed in a specific way to allow airflow in and out maybe the compatibles are not made right ?
@@mikesunboxing Thank you, I will return them to Amazon
Does the printer come with Inks, or do we have to buy ink and what type of ink we need to buy, please
it comes with the inks enough to fully fill the unit and a little left over
Hi. I´ve been trying to print in color, but is not working. First time i did the refill i didn´t use the color ink to do the setup. I´ve tried to do the setup again with thos colors tanks filled, but i still can´t print in color. Do u know how i can fix this problem?
running the setup priming without ink in the tanks could damage the unit. if it is under warranty i would be tempted to return it and don't tell them you did that
Many thanks for the advice. @@mikesunboxing
my concern is the long term use . will the ink dry and clog the nozzles or ink tubes?
as always time will tell
You need to use inkjet printers ever few days to avoid clogged nozzles. I have an ET2710 and for the 1st year it was good, but now I'm struggling with clogged nozzles, but it's probably my fault for not using it often enough...I might go a couple of weeks without using it and then when I need to print off a few pages, I waste so much ink trying to clean the nozzles. In hindsight, I should've bought a cheap laser printer and kept my previous printer for the flatbed scanner.
@@Pete856 ya that's why I'll stick with lazer printers. Sometimes I don't use printer for months. Been using the same color lazer printer for 15 years.
Do you know the difference between the model ET 2810 and ET 2860?
no i don't sorry
Whats the difference between this one and with the L series
not sure sorry i will try and find out.
I'm stuck. All my lights have come on and won't do anything now. Less than 6 months old
Contact Epson support, lucky it is still in warranty
Howz about a lazer printer?
would have preferred a laser but the one i was looking at was too big for the location it has to live in
My only concern is the software communication with possible error issues.
That is always a potential problem with modern technology
Hi, does it have Airprint? (for iOS)
not sure sorry i can't find it in the documentation
Hello, can this printer be used without a computer? I only have a Samsung tablet
Yes you can
@@mikesunboxing OK thank ^^
I see the 2810, 2820 and 2826. Does anyone know the differences please?
think it is a regional thing
@@mikesunboxing UK Currys Shop has 2820 and 2826 .... Not even the shop knows the difference 🤔
were you asjked fpor a password , the app said the password was attached to the machine, but i have checked and no where to be seen, any advice
it should be on the back of the machine on the serial number sticker
@@mikesunboxing. I just bought an ET2814 and so far I am pleased with it. I saved some £s and bought a refurbished one. No problem but no box. I was able to print out the data sheet for this specific unit which gave the password. Once I had sorted out that problem, things started to get easier
I just wonder how it would print on fabric.
you will need to use sublimation inks for that to get the best results
I just cannot connect to the printer using my 4G home network using the Epson smart panel, it says it is connected to WiFi but showing a not connect symbol on the home page
4G is a mobile network not a wifi network, for that you would need to configure the printer for external access. Of turn off mobile data on your phone to force it to use wifi
Thank you I have managed to set it all up now
@@patbennett4268 Glad you got it working 🙂
Is this a sublimation printer
It can be if you change the inks
My ET-2875 can print dobbeltsided manually. But only whole documents. That is if you have a 100 pages document you can not only print 50 pages . I assume this is a software error but the agent seems uninterested to alert the manufacturer. The software is epson smart .Panel App
i don't think i have even printed a double sided document on mine
So no need to install the drivers ??
windows 10 or 11 does it automatically for a basic windows printing driver, if you want more then use the espon website drivers
Does it print double sided
not automatically,m there is no duplex unit in it
I am having issues connecting via Wi-Fi. Printer cannot find my router!!!!
is it too far away or being blocked somewhow?
@@mikesunboxing it is really close! Not sure if I should buy a usb cable although kind of defeats the purpose.
Hi sir I am planning to open my Business to print T shirts will this printer do the job ?
it might be a bit slow for production
How can I contact you reference set up epson tank print ET-8211.

If you print on photo paper how is the quality?
not used photo glossy yet but seems good on regular cheapo a4
@@mikesunboxing Thx
looks like they could have easily prevented mixing colors by having each bottle fit only the correct tank.
it seems there is a notch on the bottles to prevent that
@@mikesunboxing oh ok.
its good to sublimation with original ink?
truthfully i have no idea, i was under the impression that the sublimation inks where aftermarket things, i wasn't aware that epson did their own, i suppose if the genuine inks are not terribly more expensive it is worth using them
You cannot sublimate with normal ink, you will need sublimation ink and convert the printer from new. I have this printer for my sublimation products and it is INCREDIBLE
@@SelfmadeSoftlife Thanks for the info 🙂
@@SelfmadeSoftlifehow you mean by converting it from new ?? I thought it was just the sublimation ink and the sublimation paper you’d need, Was looking to buy this for the same reason, T-shirts, mugs ect
@@johnhuntsmanreselling4113 I think it may be how I worded it but it sounds like you're on the right track.
1. Buy the printer (DO NOT TURN IT ON OR INSTALL)
2. Buy sublimation ink
3. Install the sublimation ink into the printer and follow the usual printer installation instructions
4. Use the sublimation paper
Works great and this is a great printer - good luck :)
does it print photos
yes it can
There is a waste ink sponge in the back of the printer that eventually needs to be replaced. Not hard to do and not expensive.
thanks for the heads up
Is that not the same as the one he showed in the video? I purely purchased this as I thought the drawer Mike showed was the waste ink pad
You actually can't put the wrong color into the wrong tank. Every bottle will only fit one tank.
And at 25:09, it's LC-Display, not LCD Display.
Liquid Crystal Display
I heard the ink heads are designed to clogg up and designed so you can't unclog it or fix it. if you don't use it at least once a week.
anyone have experience with it?
i have had this a while now and sometimes not used all week and in a very hot room with cats and a log burner, and it has got clogged up yet, not even needed a head clean
Do you still use it?
almost every day
anyone else seeing wheel lines and pin wheel lines on 240gsm photo paper?
try printing slower
after laser printer i purchase ecotank L3256, what cheap photo paper is best for printing?
the stuff from costco is quite good and pretty cheap
I am wondering what interesting prints you'd get if you did put the wrong colors in the wrong place. I'll let someone else do that.
lol yeah i'm not trying it
I can't for the life of me NOT print WITHOUT that white border. Epson's customer service has been worthless and I can't find any solutions online. If you don't mind a thick white border on all your documents, this printer is fine. But if you want to make flyers, posters, promo items, get ready to have fun spending hours chopping off white borders.
i will try and look into that, borderless printing is not something i have looked at for a while
borderless printing is an option that not all printers have, ET-2010 can't print in borderless, it's sad.
IT IS NOT AN EASY SET UP AT ALL.......GOING BACK IN THE MORNING...
sorry to hear that, what was the problem?
👎👎👎
what is that for? did i upset you?
I actually got two of my clients 2815s.
great printers
@@mikesunboxing I work with tech support for people in their homes and Epson is the only printer company that I don't hate with the fire of a million suns.
I have a huge Epson A3 printer. Still haven't printed anything in that size but it sure is cool.
They need to work on their Apple support though. Or maybe they just don't want to pony up the licensing fee fir AirPrint.
