    Epson ET-16500 EcoTank Wireless Wide format Color All-in-One Supertank Printer, Scanner, Fax & Ethernet

    • Print is crisp and dark.
    • First, when it's printing something like an image, it's not noisy at all, and the alarming noises are the guts rumbling as things move through them.
    • Terrible print quality despite using photo paper and cleaning as per the instructions
    • Poor print quality, wastes paper and ink by needing to do print head nozzle cleanings - that do not do anything for the final product
    • One glaring omission from the Epson makers is that this printer does not support air print.
    • So I took a nicely colored print, copied it, and whaddya think: the colors of copies are quite realistic
    • Even when printed on plain paper with default settings, detail is crisp and legible, and lines are straight and uniform
    • crooked, random squiggly lines print on the page, print is fuzzy
    • Once I finally got it set up, I was pleasantly surprised at how quiet and fast it prints--even duplex
    • I have done the clean print head test multiple times, hoping it would resolve at least part of the issue
    • Still, unless you are comparing it to a "better" printed sheet, you would probably not detect the loss of quality.
    • Print for use in correspondence is slow.
    • First, it is slow, slow to start printing once prompted and slow to print
    • Terrible print quality despite using photo paper and cleaning as per the instructions
    • Fast with outstanding print quality
    • The very first print out from the ET-16500 was visibly worse
    • The use: The printing was fast and crisp
    • I have been using the print, copy and scan functions quite a bit, but have not bothered with faxing anything as I don't have much need for that
    • Honestly, the process was so well thought out that all I had to do in most cases was say, "Yup, please let this scanner send you stuff."On the other hand, Google Cloud Print setup is daunting.
    • It does not use photo inks, or support border-less printing, so if you are looking to print photos, I would consider other options
    • The new printer, BTW, seems to be printing just fine.
    • It's not open the box and print like the HPs that I have
    • unless the ink deteriorates over time, I may well have ink remaining in the wells even after two years, which would be a great thing.
    • n’t go wrong.
