Q: Initialization used up all the ink. Where did it go without printing?
submitted by StembieThree - 6 months ago
A: Hello StembieThree. A portion of the ink will be used to charge the ink delivery system, and the remainder can be used for printing. Please give our Technical Support team a call, so that we can discuss the setup process you went through and the general settings selected when you initialized the printer. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the Epson EcoTank ET-2980 Wireless All-in-One Color Supertank Printer - White: Automatic 2-Sided Printing, Borderless Photos, Print From Mobile Device
The EcoTank system uses tubes to carry ink from the tanks to the print head. During initialization, the printer pumps ink to fill these tubes completely. At the end of those tubes are "dampers" (small reservoirs) that sit right above the print head. These must be fully primed with ink to ensure that when you hit "Print," the ink flows instantly and consistently without air bubbles.

The printer has received mixed feedback from guests, highlighting both its strengths and weaknesses. Many appreciate its ease of setup and print quality, especially for documents and photos. However, concerns arise regarding connectivity issues, a small control panel, and difficulties with duplex printing. Guests have noted the eco tank feature as a cost-saving advantage, but some express frustration with the app and overall usability. Overall, it offers good value for those prioritizing print quality and ink savings.

Good for Home Use
Very quiet and much better connectivity than older models. Prints well. Color is pretty good. Does print a little slower, but for home use, it's fine.

Why sell renewed, if buyer has to 'renew' upon arrival?
Excited for days, I finally got my eco tank....just to have it not work. All the heads are plugged. So disappointed. Why refurbish if you're not going to do it correctly? Why not suggest this me be an occurrence and educate the buyer? Why not send a head cleaning kit as complimentary apology to the possibility that only you guys know may happen? So very disappointed.
Renewed no thanks

Target Sucks
Target took my money sent wrong printer. I drove over two hours to send back. They have my money and the printer. Told me they have the printer back and said maybe I will get my original order. It's been 10 days. So no printer and they have my money. Fraud. So I would purchase anywhere else.

One of the worst printers I've ever owned. The print quality is poor, and the ink replacement system is just as disappointing.

Never ending paper jamb
Set up was easy. Filling ink was easy. Printed 2 pictures on glossy paper. They came out great. Started next print realized had wrong paper so I pulled it out and now I don’t have a printer and can not find a way to talk to anyone. It will not start. Follow all jammed paper instructions and it just keep telling to shut it off and fix jammed paper. Did this 4 times and will not start up.

Good value for the money
Good printer for the money. Slow. Does double-sided on plain paper only, not cardstock. Need to print regularly of the nozzles will clog. Love the eco-tanks.

Total Disappointment
This printer is a total waste of $$$. I have to turn the printer off and then on again just to print, and I can't scan because it always says Communication error, check the connection? Funny thing about it is that my wifi router is right next to this printer. This will be the last Epson printer that I purchase.

Confusing Set Up Instructions
The printer is great! But the setup instructions are very confusing and scattered. With the help of Gemini and YouTube we finally got it all set up. Instead of easy to follow step-by-step instructions, the instruction sheet has you flipping around here to there so many times, it’s crazy. I would like to work for Epson just to improve on their instructions! Nice printer though!

Need an IT degree to operate
If I were able to carry this thing outside, I would heave it over the hill ! The ‘window’ is so small, I have to use a magnifier to see it..the user buttons are not marked and make no sense..it was a gift..it has taken a month of messing and worry to get it online with my WiFi and still will not allow printing from my iPad…Today's ‘registration is another attempt to get it to print.

yeah its mid
I see a lot of the reviews talking about poor connectivity but I haven't had that issue at all! However, I have had issues with the paper jamming often and the paper holder really is small. The ink is cool though and lasts a long time. It's also cool that you can print using the app from just about anywhere.

So far so good
I've only used this printer a few times. I had a little trouble connecting it to my wifi. Ended up having to move my wifi router. I think this survey should be taken in 6 months. In the meantime, thanks again for a so-far-so-good product!
