Reasonably priced, app is intuitive and economical to run
I’ve been using this small Epson eco tank printer for a while, and overall, it’s a great choice for home or small office use. The compact size makes it easy to fit on a desk without taking up much space. Print quality is sharp and clear, especially for documents, and the ink efficiency is impressive compared to other brands I’ve used. Setup was straightforward, and connecting it to Wi-Fi was quick. The only downside is that printing can feel a bit slower when handling larger documents, but for everyday use it’s reliable and consistent. A solid little printer that does the job well without breaking the bank.

This printer replaces an earlier Epson printer that I had. The previous model was approximately five years old and had become tired but expensive to operate due to the price of printer cartridges.
The new model has refillable ink tanks that are designed for printing many more pages much more cheaply. I’m very happy with it’s communication with my devices making print requests simple.

At a glance
The Epson EcoTank ET-2850 is a refillable-tank all-in-one inkjet printer built for households and home offices that print regularly and want to keep ongoing ink costs low. Its strengths are very low running costs, simple wireless printing and automatic duplex printing. A fair limitation is that it is not the fastest choice for high-volume office workloads or users wanting premium photo output.

Things to consider
Compared with premium home-office or photo-focused printers, the ET-2850 is less suited to heavier workloads, faster batch printing or users chasing the best borderless photo results.
Home office suitability score
8/10 - strong fit for regular document printing, low running costs and duplex use in a small home office.
Photo printing quality
Good for casual family photos and colour graphics, but not the ideal choice for enthusiasts wanting higher-end photo reproduction.
Ease of use rating
8/10 - refill tanks are user-friendly, wireless printing is convenient and everyday controls are simple to navigate.
Running cost guidance
Very low for an inkjet printer thanks to the refillable tank design; best value for households or home offices that print regularly.
Family friendliness
High - well suited to homework, forms, colour handouts and occasional photos without the frequent cartridge changes many families dislike.
Key benefits
- EcoTank refillable ink tank system: Designed to keep ongoing ink costs far lower than many cartridge-based inkjet printers.
- Ink included in the box: Comes with enough ink for long stretches of everyday printing before a refill is needed.
- Automatic duplex printing: Prints on both sides of the page to reduce paper use for everyday documents.
- Wireless connectivity: Makes it easy to print from laptops, phones and tablets without needing a constant cable connection.
- Print, scan and copy functions: Handles common household and home-office tasks in one compact device.
- Compact footprint: Fits more comfortably into smaller desks, study corners and shared living spaces.
- Colour display and physical controls: Helps make setup and routine tasks more straightforward for everyday users.
- Heat-Free PrecisionCore printing technology: Built to deliver reliable everyday document printing with sharp text and consistent colour output.
Q: Is the Epson EcoTank ET-2850 a good choice for low-cost home printing?
A: Yes. The ET-2850 suits homes that print regularly and want lower ongoing ink costs, with included ink rated for 6,500 black and 5,200 colour pages. It also adds auto 2-sided printing and a 100-sheet tray, but it is not aimed at high-volume office use.
Q: Does the Epson ET-2850 use cartridges or refill bottles?
A: No, it does not use standard cartridges. The ET-2850 has built-in ink tanks that refill from Epson bottles, and the auto-stop bottles are keyed to each colour to reduce filling mistakes. That matters if running cost is a bigger priority than the lowest upfront price.
Q: Can the Epson ET-2850 print from a phone or tablet without joining the home network?
A: Yes. The ET-2850 supports mobile printing from iPad, iPhone, Android tablets and smartphones, and it also includes Wi-Fi Direct. That lets a compatible device connect straight to the printer when a router-based network is unavailable or inconvenient.
Q: Is the Epson ET-2850 suitable for printing photos as well as documents?
A: Yes, for casual home photo use. It can print borderless 4 x 6 inch photos, which is useful for standard snapshot printing and sharing. If larger photo sizes are a priority, this model is more limited because the listed borderless size is 4 x 6 inch.
Q: What are the main trade-offs to know before choosing the Epson ET-2850?
A: The main trade-off is lower ongoing ink cost versus a typically higher upfront buy-in than cartridge printers. Epson also notes actual yields vary with what and how often you print, and all colours are used for printing and maintenance, not black only.
