Epson printers suck.

Epson printers will not work if one of the four color cartridges is empty. I tried to print a letter (black and white), but the magenta ink cartridge was empty.

I went to the Printer Properties and set it to print "Black Ink Only", but that didn't even work. I called their customer service, and a person who could barely speak English said there is no way to by-pass the problem. He also admitted that ALL of their printers are like this. I shouldn't have to purchase over-priced ink that I don't need to make the printer work.

My suggestion to anyone looking to buy a printer to avoid Epsons.

I've owned three different Epsons and they all suck. They work for about 3 to 6 months and then they are nothing but trouble. I have an old Cannon printer from the 1999 it still work except it isn't compatible with much.

Epson printers are a huge waste of money and complete garbage. I could bring scribes back from Ancient Greece with chisels and stone tablets and they'd outprint Epson Printers any day of the week. I'm sitting here troubleshooting for about 2 hours average every time I have to print on the XP-4100 - Do not buy anything Epson

buy an HP or CANON, i resale printers and every EPSON ive got has been nothing but issues. HP is the most user friendly best option in my opinion.

i had one epson with 2 prints on it (brand new) cleaned the print head put it back together and it fried all the electronics. needless to say epson is the fake high-end printer.

Epson is the world's biggest ink supplier. If you need to print in all black you are screwed if one of the other colors that you will NOT need is out because.

Epson can NOT print for you. Epson is looking for scientists that can solve this issue and Elon Musk is working on getting to Mars.

What will happen first? Thanks Happy Epson Customer** SUCKER

I have had an Epson printer since 2019 and it still doesn't print. I haven't had any luck with this situation, and no one seems to be able to get it up and running permanently.
