Epson Printer Deals & Offers

Gutted I missed this as I need a printer now. And my nearest store is the OP's store Tesco Llansamlet!

For full colour? Not always

Or save money by buying replica cartridges on eBay

Not to mention the ink won't completely dry up even after a long time of no use.

Anyone recommend a decent laser printer which can do a4 labels printing

Wow, Great. Thanks for the update. (y)

Got mine.. Works great.. Ink included.. Bargain 👌

Oh yes, they were supposed to be till midnight. Thanks for the info. (y)

Seems to be £42.06 now.

Yes, You can decline the updates no problem. I guess Epson could prevent you using certain features if you don't update i,e Epson email print, remote print etc.. I don't use those features myself and can't confirm either way.

Simply buy a laser printer

Bought one of these to replace my last Epson printer which sadly stopped working, Basically some firmware error prevented it communicating with my pc. It was reliable up until that point. I paid about £30 for loads of ink off ebay and it lasted years. I like the cheap compatible inks.

This is the problem I had with my last epson printer. Which I had owned for 5 years. That’s why had to buy a new one. So 5 years isn’t bad. Never had a problem prior to this.

That's fair comment and point taken that I should have been more specific..... It constantly jams, often become mis-aligned, the Wi-Fi keeps needing to be re-connected, the scanner often doesnt send anything to the laptop, the print quality leaves lines on the page, regardless of cleaning the print heads with both oem or reman inks, it tells you there is a paper jam when there isn't, it has sensor issues making it say there is no paper when there is.

Bad for who, the consumer, or the company's profits? Doesn't take someone in the industry for 25 years to realise that the options out there pale in comparison (think HP printers whose cartridges cost over a tenner each and last only a few hundred pages) if you print over a hundred pages a month. Maybe it would help by saying what's bad about it, instead of outright dismissing it as a valid option for everyone else, you may even find that someone could help you with your problem.

if you afraid of the refill costs just use ciss, one available here: https://www.cityinkexpress.co.uk/ciss/epson/xp-8500/xp-series/empty refill bottles are really cheap on ebay

And it drops off the WiFi after 24 hours and needs rebooting to connect.

I’ve got one of these and it’s rubbish. Ink dries up in the pipes if you use it infrequently meaning I have to do a full head clean every time I use it.

Look at the cost of ink cartridges, even a set of compatibles for this one is nearly £30!

£34.97 now

How much to buy ink for this?

Amazing bargain just bought this!

What ? It says Box Contains .. 10x15cm Sample media pack, Individual Ink Cartridges, Main unit, Power cable, Setup guide, Software (CD), Warranty document

Apologies you were right. Although it says ink cartridges in the description, the highlighted box option is 'without ink' and if you click on 'with ink' the price doubles.

I have an ecotank and its great. loads of ink included and your set long term. Dont expect it to print as quick as a big corporate office printer, but its not slow! linked easy with wifi

Between that and they heads drying out and clogging is what's making me think go for laser for the first time. Never had a laser before. I'm not a heavy enough user of print, but point blank refuse to buy carts any more. I haven't written off ecotank because of excellent price of ink, but the above puts me off.

In fairness, not a bad price for that part, though it's £11.94 delivered. Any idea how many cleans? 10 Manual head cleans is about what they used to be, so bound to be less. Let's face it, if you buy this printer, you'll need to buy this too.

Cash back has tracked at £7.63.

250 better? But seriously it's hard to tell from the website but they look very similar. The 3000 gets an extra set of colour refills compared to the 2750.

Inkjet - no thanks!

I’ve had this for a few months, and its predecessor (7620) for 3 years before that. Print quality has always been good and we use it to print our yearly photo calendars. Never seen any stripes or lines. Worth trying different (glossy) paper?

I got one of these. It's ok and very handy if you want to do A3 or large scans but the image quality is not great, or should I say I've never been able to optimise it to not get lines on photos. Ink is a bit expensive if you use it a lot too. Having said that it's worth the price over printer that don't have the features this does. Perhaps I'm used to business printers that you won't get for anywhere near this price :-) used some great Wax printers.

This is how printers should be. Pay more for the printer & cheap inks, not cheap printers & ink costing more that its weight in gold

I've had an Ecotank for a few years now and really hammered it (nearly 7,000 colour pages!). One good thing is that you don't have to buy a whole set of inks, you can just buy whichever colour is running low at the time. I've stuck to buying real Epson inks as the compatables aren't much cheaper. As others have said a quick head clean and off it goes again and as you've got the bulk ink you're not worried about the cartridges all being used up.

Same, the last three printers I've had have always broke before those packs of compatable ink from Amazon even get used up

I've been using the et-2550 for two years regularly and only had to top up the black once. occasionally there are some issues but nothing that a heading cleaning doesn't fix. I recommend. There's also the feeling satisfaction from not having to shell out for overpriced cartridges, you can't put a price on that.

Best price for a set of ecotank 664 bottles on eBay seems to be about £29.50 at the moment...not sure how many pages this makes

EFF is on the case in America, they could face a class action in e.g. Texas for misleading, anticompetitive practices. The EU should be on their case too.

I bought a Canon TS5050 on amazon yesterday for this very reason.

Also amazons idea of "prime" one day delivery is interesting. In stock but won't arrive until Tuesday... pity it's a good deal for the 830, camel has it normally retailing for ~£105

You might want to consider this before buying Epson, unless you're happy paying a fortune for their ink. Epson is teaching the internet not to install security updates

Thanks arrived ok and working well.

Oops, sorry :(

I use Linux, so it's been a while since I saw it. If my memory serves me right, the printer driver installation for Windows has a step where it asks if you would like to check for firmware updates and apply it on the printer. Say no to that XD

I can't see the 352 listed as being compatible ?

I ain’t used it for yonks :~\ I’ll call them tomorrow

I’ve got this printer it a good one. I have had it for over a year. No problem with it what so ever. (Ttip for artists) I paint for a living and needed it to print of my copies of paintings. If you buy Epson picture paper it’s about £10 for 50 sheets this will print out picture perfect photos no need to go and print them online and the ink is cheap as well you do not need branded Epson in any ink with good reviews on Amazon will do. Happy printing, heat from me xxx

thanks for that. il give it a try

Discordant spray gets ink off everything. Try spraying loads onto some kitchen roll, fold it up in a thin line along where the ink runs, move the cartridge along it backwards and forwards until you see loads of black ink. Cleared it for me twice anyway. Make sure it’s soaked with deodorant spray

how do you fix it? ive tried everything. all the other colours come out fien but wheneve we print letters or anything black it comes out bent and very faded even if i use a brand new cartridge.

Got the XP-245 model. If you use genuine ink it costs a fortune, that's how they get their money out of you and why printers are dirt cheap. I've not had good experiences with cheaper compatible inks personally. Printing in black when one of the colours is low or out is not possible, annoyingly. Will be getting a HP with instant ink sub next time.

Ouch! Another cold deal from me. (poo) I guess the only heat here is where I've been burnt.

Set on non oem inks 6 colours XL around £30 on Ebay so not to bad imo

There was a HP Officejet 3831 on here from AO.com for £20 after £10 cashback that I think would do the job.Also had free 3month instantink.

i need a good cost effective photo printer that can print from mobile devices, anyone know of one and how much per print?

I'm after a cheap to run but good quality photo printer. How have maintenance and ink costs been?

Nice price but some terrible reviews, even on Epsons own website. Epson Reviews

I’ve got an sx445 the ink constantly blocks, mainly the black. If you don’t use it at least once every 2 weeks it’s unusable and you can’t buy a new head for it

It should tell you the cartridges are not compatible, anything else check your settings.

Wondered why mine had stopped working. Thanks for the info

Mine was xp 445 and use to use the same cheap inks.. Until i was asked to do a firmware update..unsure if they are given the update at the factory tho. I returned mine after the update to curry's under their cover warranty said it no longer takes cartridges and they were fine. There was a court case which epson won the right to protect their business as I assume they make the cash on the inks. Hp did the same but backed down after alot og complaint on the forums.

Whatttt! That's disgraceful. Do you know if this is the same on all new Epson printers? I was about to buy the XP 245 and was hoping to use complete £3.99 ink sets from eBay :/

Be warned epson have updated the firmware on these and they no longer accept 3rd party carts

That 22 quid deal is mega worth but if you are looking for a similar printer at the 50 quid mark search for the Epson Workforce WF2630 or the XP3xx or XP4xx model ranges. Compatible inks are dirt cheap on Ebay, ideal if you print a lot.

8 quid.....but you are too late :(

On the look out for a printer, how much is for replacement cartridge?

(party) hope you enjoy it!

Ordered cheers op

🔥

Probably being voted by cold based on people not understanding the value of the Ecotank feature. £150 for this printer is a steal, hot.

3 year warranty if registered online within 30 days of purchase too

Seen in Tesco Extra Abingdon today

Does anyone have a barcode

Got the last one in Exeter, thanks

You could refill/reset original inks for a nice compromise

Tesco, Walkden got a few. Couldn't be bothered getting one though. Had a load more on the adjacent ailse.

Updated picture to show price!

Scan it as £12.45 in my local Tesco this morning

I am happy with my Epson printer and the Wi-Fi printing is really great, especially at this print point

Dont get why this is getting so cold its a decent printer at a great price. Plus epson compatible ink is dirt cheap on ebay.

It may well be cheaper than buying ink cartridges but it will come with so little ink it won’t be worth it. Personally I’d go for a cheap laser and avoid colour printing at home for a multitude of reasons, but that’s just me (never had an inkjet work properly for long).

Looks like a lot of printer and quite a good price too. (y)
