5.0 out of 5 stars Good all round printer
I do photography and wanted an A3 photo printer, but also for it to be able to copy (A4), scan (A4), and print normal text paper (eg letters, office papers, etc).This printer does it all, with the advantage of cheap inks.I had a designated photo printer but it was not good for normal text paper, as it uses far too much ink. So I needed a second printer to print letters etc.When both printers died, I did a huge amount of research, then tested a friends ET-8550 and was hugely impressed. This printer really does it all.Photos are excellent, with good colour rendition especially if printed via Photoshop so that you can use the various colour profiles. Just turn off 'printer manages colour' to do this.A3 and A4 photo paper can be fed via the rear tray to save bending the paper. I haven't yet used the straight feed for Fine Art papers yet, but should be easy enough. Just remove the back panel and it will glide straight through.Text, letters, and what I call 'office' paperwork can be printed easily and at reasonable speed. Perhaps not so good if printing a lot of papers as the paper tray only holds up to 30 sheets, but is good for normal home use.As others have mentioned, the ink tanks are easy to fill (ink bottles each have a different shape surrounding the nozzle so can only be fitted to the correct hole). Just put the bottle in the the right hole and it will fill. No need to squeeze or anything. Once filled just remove and keep the lid on if any left in the bottle.I only use Epson genuine Claria inks. I have tried 'compatibles' in the past and they wrecked the printer head resulting in having to buy a new printer. Whilst the genuine Epson inks are more expensive, the photos last a long time with no fading or colour bleeding. Photos are excellent, and are good enough quality for competitions.The one thing I'm not impressed with is the 'advertising' from Epson regarding the number of photos being able to be printed on one set of inks. It states 2300 photos, although elsewhere it states 1800 photos. Well yes it does, but if you hunt and research you will find that number is for 15cm x 10cm prints. That is 1/4 sheet of A4. If you print a full A4 photo, you can print 450 - 575, depending on the colours of the photos. This is still 10x more than most photo printers, and makes for very economical printing, but saying 2300 could be a bit misleading for some people. Obviously A3 will use twice the amount of ink, so 225 - 288 A3 photos. My old photo printer could only manage 20-40!Scanning is easy using the Epson ScanSmart programme, which is downloaded when you set up the printer.Talking of which, I removed 24-30 blue tapes from inside and around the printer when setting it up. They hold everything in place for transport, but you must remove them all before use. Do look inside, around the back, everywhere! They could stop the printer from setting up correctly.I set up manually from my tower computer, but have also used the automatic and wi-fi from my laptop. Both are easy to do if you follow the instructions. I have connected to my computer via USB, and also set up wi-fi so I can print from my laptop, both of which work well. There is also an ethernet port if you wish to connect via that.One thing which took me a while to find was the receiving tray closure. It opens automatically when printing to receive the paper, but to close it you can gently push it back in, but it is very very stiff. Or... go to the touchscreen and touch the close button, and hey presto it closes! I wish Epson would tell us!All in all a really good printer, and yes I would recommend it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Stunningly beautiful prints!
This is hands down the best printer I've ever seen. I can't imagine how the quality could be improved with another printer. It's as good as it gets. Forget ever needing to order photos or prints online, you can print your own photos at home with this. The paper you use is important however, as testing shows cheap low quality paper gives (surprise) low quality prints. But with a good photo paper, the colours are stunning. Stunning!It's easy to set up, although does take a bit of time initially. It requires a lot of space to have on your desk always ready to go, so make sure you have the space. The size of the printer itself isn't the only consideration (and it is large), the paper tray and rear feeder tray needs to be taken into account too.I love the ink tanks over cartridges. Love how you can fill them up individually and see the levels at all times physically. I'm not sure on the accuracy of the claimed amount of pages you can print on a full tank though, as it seems to be draining much faster than the stated 1000s of pages. Although I am printing a lot of full page coloured A3 art (I'm an artist).TL;DR: You will get professional level prints with this. And the ink does last a long time, but probably not as long as Epson says. At least if you plan on doing a lot of full colour A4/A3 pages.Tech Support gets 1 star cause the only time I contacted them they never replied. Luckily I was able to figure it out myself in the end. But yeah, strange and maybe an anomaly but has to be mentioned.
5.0 out of 5 stars By far the best printer
Replaced a very old Canon which whilst still printing had developed a fault where it kept reporting 'no paper' even when the tray was full. This printer is easy to set-up, superb print quality (especially on premium photo paper), quiet in operation, reliable and economical to run - still havent replaced the original inks supplied yet after 3 months use. Wifi and Direct connect via Phone work well. Good styling & compact.

review
I am satisfied that I bought this printer
Excellent A3 printer quality, likewise for A4 use too. Ease of use. Simplicity.
Overall excellent quality from Epson. Moved up from the ET-2850 printer to this one. Tired out of using the expensive printer cartridges of the HP Officejet Pro 7740 printer that ends up being horrendously expensive to run/use compared to the ink tank printers. Know of the functional problems of the ET-2850 that can pop up, so I know to avoid and fix them on this printer, I hope. There were little problems that popped up using the ET-2850, so I hope not to repeat them using this ET-8550 printer. Anyway this new printer has performed flawlessly so far in it's first few days of operation and the A3 and A4 printouts have been of very high quality indeed.
Probabilmente la stampante A3 con il miglior rapporto qualità-prezzo.
Adoro questa stampante. Ma per ottenere il meglio da essa, è molto importante capire le impostazioni della macchina.Per la migliore coerenza è anche una buona idea ottenere o creare profili colore per ogni marca/tipo di carta che si utilizza.Alcuni critici diranno, in base alla loro esperienza, che ET-8550 ed ET-8500 non stampano bene su alcune marche di carta (come Kodak Premium, ad esempio). Ma, assolutamente, questo non è vero.Ciò che è vero è che queste stampanti stamperanno bene su qualsiasi marca di carta fotografica a getto d'inchiostro, con le impostazioni della stampante e il profilo colore della carta corretti.È anche importante ricordare, quando si stampa da un'applicazione di modifica delle immagini (come Photoshop, Lightroom o Affinity ecc.), di disattivare la gestione del colore della stampante se l'applicazione di modifica delle immagini sta gestendo il colore. Non farlo è uno dei motivi principali della riproduzione del colore scarsa e incoerente.
