Is the EPSON ET-4850 a good printer for crafting? | Honest review | Unboxing 

I just wanted to say how very grateful I am for the free pintable's. Just so very generous of you. I'm on social security and could not learn this without you..

I bought my 4850 about two years ago and I love it. I've never had any problems with it. When I want a perfect print I go into settings and change it from to standard print to vivid. I've never had to clean the printer head and I use cardstock in it daily. There is a waste tank in the back that will need replacing when it fills up but I just did that two weeks ago and it only cost me around $14 US. Enjoy your new printer.

Thank you for the honest review. Very helpful!

I've got an ET 2820 and I love it. I've only had it since last June and already the waste ink sponges are full. Should be simple according to a friend who has 3. Contact Epson, they book it in for pickup, replace sponges and send it back. I've had to make so many calls and webchats and I was told it was being collected Thursday. Well it wasn't so I'm not impressed with Epson support, but love the printer

I bought an HP during the pandemic, after my old Canon Pixma stopped printing with the black cartridge. It was the worst printer I have ever had. It never printed 100% right, but I made do. I recently purchased another Canon and so far I am happy with it. I hope you enjoy yours and that it gives you many years of good use!

Hallo Tine, I bought my Epson 2820 on Dez 2021 to Print your beatifull papers. I printet in this time over 2000 Pages! No problem. No plastic, no waste and true Color. My next Printer will be Epson😁

I bought an Epson Ecotank 3760 right before the pandemic, so late 2019, and I love it. It's the greatest printer I've ever had. However, after 4 years, and thousands and thousands (I do mean THOUSANDS) of color prints, it might be time for a new one. ;-) The amount of money I saved in ink alone, more than paid for the printer. Thanks for the video (and all of your videos.) xo

Thank you for this review, it was very helpful.

Now you have me convinced ❤😊 I need a new printer and it needs to be this one . Thank you for the honest review

Hello TFS and being honest. Thanks for the freebies. Happy Crafting

thank you for reviewing this printer. I am currently researching printers and I was actually really interested in this particular printer. WOW!

Have fun with your new helper and toy, Tinne! It looks great!

Great info. Thanks so much!

We have 2 Epson eco tanks and absolutely love them!! Great video! And Love your digital files and have purchased a number of them! ❤️😊

Excellent Tinne! Well demonstrated and it seems to be a great printer. The colours are vivid and of course the border less feature is perfect. The ink bottles were so easy to use. Enjoy until the next time. Be well and stay safe.❤😊

I LOVE this printer, I use it for all my crafting especially with your designs!

Thanks for the review. I lan on getting one.

Thank you for sharing, I’m a new paper crafter and have had to buy cartridges $$$$$. After seeing your video I purchased the 2800 and love it. 💕

Thank you for this info. I have been thinking about upgrading to this printer and I trust your opinion. Also accept my heartfelt thanks for the free printables you are always sending me. The designs are exquisite🍄

Thank you Tinne and thanks for all the comments 😊 I have try both eco tank and monthly plan cartridges, both are HP and finally I choose the monthly plan, because it can have automatically system to sent me the cartridge before the ink is needed, I don't need to check it out and its really help me a lot and I can change my plan so easy as my monthly needed. But the most important is their excellent online services to help me in all necessity since I was a elderly persons with limited mobility. Junk journal is my favorite hobby ❤ Thank you so much Tinne for your freebies and all your beautiful kits , they are all printing out with excellent images and with the best quality in etsy that I have been ever have!😊 PS. I'm from Hong Kong❤

I have 2 epson printers (both ecotank). One for sublimation and the other for pigment printing. They've been wih me for 2 yrs now and haven't had any problems. I am quite pleased with them.

I bought this printer in december last year with 30€ cashback - usually I print with standard vivid, rgb mode 2.2 and it turnt out well. I have so many vectoria Designs and I love to see your printer settings - e.g. with a new video. best wishes Bridget

I have a Eco Epson printer & I love it, I think these are worth the price!🤗💜🌻💕

I have the ET-4750 and have had it for about three and a half years now...loved it so much until recently when it won't take the paper through to print... I cleaned the rollers as instructed but to no avail... I hope you have many years of great operation out of yours... I do love the machine and will buy another one when I can... Thank you for sharing..

I needed a new printer not too long ago because my 8 year old Canon was having issues so I bought an $800 Epson and the printing color was absolutely gorgeous! However, it wouldn’t print on vellum which was a disappointment but I was willing to live with it because the color was so beautiful; in fact, I was going to keep the old Canon just for printing on vellum. Then, as I was printing one day, I reached over to grab the paper that had printed, and my finger accidentally knocked the paper askew while the printer was going through its gyrations that it does after printing, and it literally grabbed the corner of the printed paper and sucked it into the machine! Plus, I also had several other issues of paper getting stuck for no apparent reason. We ended up returning the Epson and getting the Canon Maxify GX6021 instead. It works really well and does print on Vellum and thick card stock, however, the color is not nearly as bright as the Epson but it’s quite good still. Another thing is the epson does do borderless printing, whereas the canon does not. Also, two minor issues with the Epson that it didn’t print big documents in order, in other words, it would start with the first page and finish with the last, whereas canon always starts with the last page and finishes with the first so the document is in order when you finish printing. The other thing was you have to manually turn the printer on whereas canon starts automatically. So that is my experience in the last two months. Thank you for all your wonderful gifts, products, and videos! 🤗💗

I have an epson et 3760, it is my dream machine and do try the Epson matte presentation papers ( i use double sided) the colors are even more vivid with their papers.

I would love for you to do an update in a few months after you have used it quite a bit to see if you are still happy with it, and if you have had any issues at all. Could you do that? thank you so much.

Thanks for the review. I currently have HP 5255 printer and I've had nothing but trouble with it. It won't print anything over 65 pound and the options to change the print are limited. The only good thing about the printer is HP ink program. I get all the ink I was need for a low price, I pay monthly. It is much cheaper than purchasing ink cartridges. They do limit the number of pages you can print but I don't have a problem going over the amount.

✨🌼❣️Thank you❣️🌼✨ You never goe wrong way with Epson 😋 Thank you Tinne and gratz on you're new printer ❣️❣️❣️

Hi Tinne😊. What a great review. I too need a printer and have an old Canon ip2702. I don’t want to pay Almost $500 for a printer but after your awesome review, the beautiful Vectoria Designs I’ve purchased and the wonderful reviews in the comments - I just may change my mind. Thank you 👍🏾. Mel

I have the Epson Eco Tank 2720 and so far it's working really well. Only thing I was disappointed with is that it doesn't do well with 110 lb cardstock printing. I managed to get 1 sheet of such to go through but I had to physically assist it. And mine is a back loading with the paper/cardstock having to go in upright. Anyway, I'm so happy for you. And thanks for sharing the information about laser printer, I don't have one and knowing what you said, I don't want one. Take care and God bless you and yours. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas

Sounds like a great printer!

I have a cheaper version of an ET 2720 I have had in just over 2 years....I have only put ink in 3 times. I print all the time. It is the best printer I have ever had. (You do need to print at least once a week to keep the heads from drying out) I print on all kinds of paper, fabric, and shrink plastic and it works amazingly. I have gotten so many of my friends to buy an Eco tank and they are all pleased with it as well.

I really need to get an EcoTank printer. I started out slowly with only free printables but it wasn't long before the "free" stuff was costing a fortune in ink, and then I was hooked and started buying kits as well **sheepish smile** and well, now that I'm changing cartridges three times a month and still not printing everything I wish to, it's just time to get an Ecotank. Thank you for the review!

I bought this exact printer about 6 months ago to replace my HP printer that I loved but it finally gave up after about 8 years. At first I wasn't sure about the Epson it had very few options for the type of paper to print on and very little room for creativity but over the past few months I have appreciated the cost efficiency and the quality of prints. (They are much more vibrant.) I do have to clean the print head frequently or I have lines across the images but I have learned to do it on a regular basis to prevent ruined prints. Overall, I am happy with it but I do miss my old HP. 💕

I have the same model that I purchased a couple of years ago, however I don't think I would replace it with the same brand. Mine is paired with a Mac, it's easy to use and the ink is cheap to replace for someone like me who does a lot of printing but I find the colours leave a lot to be desired, especially the reds. I have to use "fine" quality printing to get colours that are nice for junk journaling (just a note that fine printing takes a long time to print a page and the ink levels go down a lot faster). I use a very good quality paper in various thicknesses, I also have never managed to get the printer to print on vellum which is annoying. Lots of printing also means lots of re alignment of the head's regularly. So overall I much preferred our old Canon, I am glad you are happy with your Epson and I hope you don't have the same issues I have had.

I love my Epson printer!

Lamento no poder entender, lo que serán unas grandes explicaciones. Gracias por compartir y regalar momentos de alegrías.

I love mine

Bought mine 2 years ago and I print about 40 or more digitals a week. Only refilled once!

Tinne, thank you for your video. I do not have a business but since I started crafting journals as a hobby 3 months ago I used a lot of ink with my Canon printer and I thought about getting an Epson printer as well. May I ask you what Canon model you use (used)? And also as I will not buy a new printer right away, I will wait and check back if you change your opinion on your new printer.

I’m still using my old canon and it mostly still works ok, but I get frustrated that if I’ve printed a lot of one colour, the ink cartridge runs out quickly (3 colours in one cartridge), it gets so expensive. I already decided that when I need to replace it, I want one with 4 separate cartridges, but I didn’t know there was a refillable option, that’s even better! I better start saving up now!

Tfs🤗

I believe it will also keep track of how many pages you’ve printed. Enjoy

I bought my 4850 13 months ago and after 2 months it broke and epson would not help me or replace it. SO after taking it to have fixed the place i took it to called epson and told them it was a hardware malfunction. Instead of sending me a new one, they send me a refurbished one. Which after 3 months, it to started having issues. It will not print centered even changing the settings. It still prints fine. I decided to get a laser printer and man oh man it's amazing! Ya the toner is more costly but they have lasted longer then the epson ink. So now when I want a print with a slight shine I use the laser!

I had an eco tank for 18 months then I had an error message regarding waste tank I did some research & found out they self clean and the waste has to go somewhere so after some thought I did away with the printer rather than send it to Epson it also struggles with card above 170/180 gsm , brilliant printer until it wont print , I know use an Epson workforce 2845 I brought cartridges you refill for it , I have had it about 2 years now

I have an Epson Eco thank 😢😢Eco tank et285ou. It's a printer subscription through Epson. 3 year contract. I pay less than 17.$ a month I never have to buy ink it's sent automatically. 1500 prints but no limit. I wanted the business printer. I have had mine for a year

I love mine. Except I cannot get it to print on cardstock. Not sure what setting to use ???

I recently bought the Epson EcoTank ET-2850. I'm finding that it prints the image way too dark. I've not yet resolved that issue. I keep playing around. I don't know if it's my settings, which did not print too dark on my previous printer, or perhaps the paper, which also worked on the previous printer.

I have a question about the ink levels in the bottles Tine. Are they full bottles or only part? Thinking of the cartridges often in other printers - just enough to get you going then you need to buy more. I can get this printer here in Aus for $469 and the ink prices are looking quite reasonable as well. I have been thinking about getting one of these, just need to convince my tech husband that it is worth the investment 😀

I have this printer too but I'm not great with tech and can't figure out how to print borderless yet 😕

Does it print double sided?

This printer confusing it keeps saying load paper when the paper already loaded. I’m sure I’ll figure it out soon though .

❤😊👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌

Was just wondering if you are still happy with your printer? Want to buy a new one, and wondering if it is worth it😊

My advice ..... dump inkjet printers - one drop of water and your print on paper is ruined - it bleeds - ink is extremely expensive compared to color laser printers - the best printer especially for you in Europe is Ricoh - color laser printers - best value for money - instant print - no bleeds and no warping on paper - super vivid colors and extremely cheap per page print compared to inkjet printers - do your own investigating and consultation and see what I am saying is true and correct - love your channel !!!!!

I had one, I replaced it. I will never own another Epson Sorry.
