Review: I bought this to replace an older Epson printer (WF-2750) to save money on the inks which were expensive to replace (around £69 for a set of 4 or £20 individually). First off, this was an incredible bargain: I bought it "like new" from Amazon Warehouse and got a further 20% off, and it was brand new and had never been opened or unpacked. It was really easy to install, I powered it up and a QR code appeared on the screen which I scanned with my iPad. The iPad and printer then walked me through setting it up step by step. Installation was seamless and straightforward. On completion, I was able to print straight away from: an iPad, an iPhone, a very ancient iMac and a Samsung tablet without any problems at all. NB I downloaded the app to the phone and tablets. The ink and paper are really easy to fill and the printer is slightly smaller and lighter than the one I had before. I wanted to link it to Amazon Alexa which wasn't possible directly, I overcame this by using a smart plug for the printer which is connected to Alexa. In summary I'm delighted with my new printer and highly recommend it.

Review: I bought this as a printer for the home office. Not wanting ‘fancy’ features, just wanted to print with ease from my usual devices (Mac, pc and iPhone). What I found, however, is that this printer doesn’t support AirPrint. AirPrint, for those who are less familiar, is the tech standard used by apple to allow seamless printing from your apple device. When you open a document on your phone, and select the print option, you can select the printer to send it to and it will print. As this printer self-identifies as a WiFi printer, you’d expect this to come as standard. It does not. In fact, Epson’s range seems to be lacking in this one, probably most crucial, feature. 4 years ago, you could get this feature in an Epson printer that cost you a mere £30, so why their mid-premium range doesn’t have it is beyond me. The only logical explanation is that they are setting it exclusively on the more expensive printers to get people to spend more. I can’t imagine it’s a limitation of the chips they are using, so what gives? You *can* print from your phone by the way. But you have to save the document to your phones files, then use the ‘smartpanel’ app to send the file to the printer. It’s just a faff. You can also set up email printing, but again not as easy or straightforward as apples native printing interface. Anyway, only other gripe is that the setup process, although very verbose and directive, can be a bit unresponsive. I had to click to connect my phone several times, despite the fact that the phone was sat right next to the printer. I also had to restart the entire setup process once because the ink initialisation had claimed to start on the phone, but after 10 minutes the printer hadn’t done anything. This particular issue is true of both the 2810 and 2850 models (I purchased the 2850 after sending the 2810 back because, after much research, I discovered this had AirPrint functionality). All in all, it’s ok. You’re getting Epson standard printing, and the eco tank idea is fantastic and I hope it has longevity. The value for money on all models is somewhat on the poorer side, I’d expect more ‘essential’ features out of a £200 printer. However I’m happy that I’ll be using an ink solution that isn’t going to cost me a fortune in the long run.
