Epson ET-8550 Reviews

Incapable of handling 13x19 paper

By benjamin
Rated 2 out of 5
Date: 2026-05-07

This printer has good print quality but it simply doesn't work as advertised. It cannot handle 13x19 paper and will repeatedly jam and ruin the paper. It is entirely unusable for printing for these purposes and it has wasted countless hours of my time and ruined countless sheets. Look elsewhere if you actually need to use the advertised features

Great work horse for the photo classroom!

I absolutely love this printer. It's very reliable and Prince beautifully at a very low cost. These are keys for any high school or college photo class. The fact that it uses ink tanks means that the cost of the ink is no longer much of a factor in allowing student students to print. The only downsides are that the 4 x 6 photo tray seems to never work right. Additionally, sometimes it gets jammed when printing double-sided a brochure paper. It has to do with the drying time. Other than that, the prints look amazing, last a long time and make printing affordable again. If you have a photo class or a graphic design class or if you're a high school that needs to support an ASB class or posters for kids running for class offices, etc., I highly recommend this printer. I routinely print hundreds of full color pages a month and probably only go through $200-300 of ink a year or less. This includes printing all of the tickets for school dances, kids running for ASB, photos for multiple photo classes, large exhibition prints, as well as school brochures, and multiple page programs for plays, etc. Stop thinking and just do it, you won't regret it!

I am most interested in making black and white prints. Will this print real grays w/o purple or green tints?
Asked by: Frank
Yes the Epson ET-8550 can print black and white without a color cast. However, it only has 1 gray ink. In my opinion the Epson P700 produces better quality black and white prints because it has 2 grays plus it uses archival pigment inks.

Asked by: Robert
The 14.9 inch depth for the Epson EcoTank Photo ET-8550 All-in-One Supertank Printer does not factor in the power cord. The 20.6 x 14.9 x 6.7" / 52.3 x 37.8 x 17 cm size is for storage and the cord can be removed before storing. When in use it is 29.8 x 20.6 x 16.9" / 75.7 x 52.3 x 42.9 cm (Fully Assembled).
