Warning- - -Spam artists at Epson customer service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Epsom customer support told me I needed to call a special number and for $50. They would help me with all of my electronic devices for the rest of my life.

I double checked it three times that that was the way it will work $50 lifetime all products now remember, I called Epson because my Wi-Fi wouldnt connect to my printer i called Epson customer support because my printer wasnt working again. Ive had a lot of problems with this printer from the day one getting it to connect every time I move to a new Wi-Fi it wont connect. Ive moved three times in the last two years. When they got my Wi-Fi to connect, they said I need to pay $50 and I told them I have some other issues with my Apple products that Id like to remedy before I give you the $50 and they tell me oh no it only covers getting your Epsonprinter going.

Informed them I was not going to let them cheat me after they lied to me.

They kept calling and harassing me for weeks telling me that I needed to pay the $50 and I said I wasnt going to now my printer wont work. It wont even make copies so whats that all about Epson

I wouldn't buy the cure for cancer from Epson. I pains me to give them a single star.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I bought an ET-2800 for a very light-use printer to have around the house for the occasional print and scan. I had low expectations, but hear me when I say that Epson went out of their way to prove they could make my experience suck more than getting you junk caught in a sausage grinder.

When you can get it to stay connected to the internet, you can try to print or scan, but the real fun begins when it breaks, and you attempt to get a replacement.

They are like insurance companies; they stall you with nonsense and refuse assistance until you break and give up.

They have a known W-01 error where the printer says there is a jam and there isn't. It's all over the internet and will most likely end up as a class-action lawsuit. Our printer had about 25 pages printed on it when the error occurred. We tried to get it replaced by emailing their support several times, and they just ghosted us.

I called and they said that they would CONSIDER replacing it if I provided pictures of the receipt, pictures of the error warning, pictures of the tubes inside, the serial number, etc. Well, I sent all of that and never heard back from them. After months of fighting with them, I called again, and they said that they wanted to see the bottles of ink that I used. This is BS, of course.

They were trying to weasel out of it by accusing me of buying compatible ink, which was nonsense because we were still on the original ink, and I lost it. They then said that the receipt I provided wasn't good enough, and they needed an invoice. This is the game with them. They just give you the run around until you quit.

It's truthfully a horrible company, and they do not care. They weigh the cost associated with the replacement against profits and do not care one bit that they are selling you complete garbage.

They have your money, and you can go screw as far as they are concerned. As the title says, I wouldn't buy the cure for cancer from Epson at this point.

My printer wont work

Updated by user Sep 06, 2025

Lower the cost of your replacement ink to make your products more customer friendly. That will disspill the first impression of corporate greed.

Original review Aug 22, 2025

Epson put in its firmware an update that prevents its customers from using generic ink in their Epson printers, thereby forcing customers to buy Epson ink at twice the price of generic ink. Pure greed, in my opinion.

Loss:
$26
Pros:
  • Good printer
Cons:
  • Expensive ink way too expensive

Preferred solution: Remove the firmware update that prevents the use of less expensive generic ink.

User's recommendation: Remove that firmware update to allow the use of generic ink.

Complaint about Epson customer Service -unprofessional

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Beware! This ET 4850 all-in-one printer has been defective since about 4 months from purchase.

I bought new, and initially, support was able to fix issues until 8 months from purchase when it stopped printing. It would spit out a blank page, and you couldn't scan. Any paper in the feeder would cause the documents to jam. What a headache!

I thought I was in manufacturer warranty at 8 months; they did all further testing and deemed the unit defective. Here I thought I would get a new replacement since I purchased new, but Epson said they would replace it with a refurbished one and not new! I didn't agree with this policy because I purchased new, and I wanted new. I spoke to numerous people in customer service; I even asked could I get credit towards a different printer, but the answer was no!

I spoke to an agent, then a supervisor named Kim, then I requested the one above the supervisor, that would be a rude customer relations representative at corporate no less, named Carrie M at 562-276-****. What an unprofessional work of art, horrible employee! She started to read part of the warranty that said they would replace it with refurbished, and when she read info I didn't understand, I would ask her can she explain, and she said, 'I'm not an attorney.' 'Will you let me finish reading this?' Like I said, an absolute worthless employee! No one can do anything except send a refurbished printer and get worthless customer service!

I expected more from Epson! I hope Shaquille O'Neal and the entire Epson board hears about this and the so many customers disgusted with Epson!

You don’t have a loss. You have the solution your warranty promised and your refusal of it’s terms.

The warranty you obviously did not read before making your purchase.

So now you have nothing. But you do not have a loss.

Mr or Ms “Guest” Although my negative comment was MY EXPERIENCE in part about the warranty, the emphasis was on the fact that the CUSTOMER SERVICE was horrible. When people respond anonymously to a negative review like you have, it’s difficult to assess the credibility of your response.

And you clearly either work at Epson or have family there because of your response. When a company has great staff and customer service, they can solve ANY issue with professionalism. Their staff lacks professionalism, not all but some. One, took it upon herself to read part of the warranty…but when I asked her to explain what she read, looks like she didn’t understand it either and got RUDE!

That is NOT acceptable in customer service because I was never rude to any of them. In terms of READING the warranty before you buy…the warranty is in the BOX! You could also check the warranty of your Epson printer, using the Warranty Verification tool on their website, but you NEED the printer's serial number available to enter into the tool! (So, you need to buy it!!) Alternatively, you can contact Epson Support directly to verify your warranty but they will ask for the Serial Number!

Not easy unless you purchase the printer. Bottom line, Customer service needs resolve issues not cause them!

And people who want to comment on someone’s negative review shouldn’t hide behind the anonymity of their post….grow a backbone! One more thing, don’t even waste time replying, because I have better things to do.

Beki or Guest or whatever name, all are equally non-identifying. I do not nor do I know anyone affiliated with Epson.

This site gets 3+ million visitors a month. Anyone can comment. The bottom line is the warranty. And no, you are wrong.

You need the serial number to REGISTER your product/warranty. Not to read it. It can be accessed online PRIOR to your purchase. Typical jump first ask questions later behavior.

You take issue with the warranty and are trying to make a CSR’s perceived rudeness an issue. That doesn’t change your warranty.

It just adds another false entry on your irresponsible list of grievances you cause yourself. #lightweight

The supervisor should not have to read and explain anything to you. YOU are supposed to before you make the decision to purchase.

If there are terms you don’t like. Don’t purchase.

Epson WorkForce Pro WF-3820 will not print

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Put in new ink cartridge and the error code came up that it didn't recognize the cartridge. worked on the problem for hours then the error code came up that I did not install correctly.

Called the company and a tec worked on it for 30 minutes came back that I had a Trojan virus and a problem with printer. He said he would fix everything for $850 with a virus blocker and remover.

I googled Epson and they dont sell virus blockers.

Went to the Epson Web page and tried other ways to contact customer service but It was back and forth to different pages with out a number there to call.

Printer saying ink pad needs service

Yes, it's saying I need maintenance on the ink pad, and it's not allowing me to print. I need to talk to someone to see what I can do to get it fixed.

Printer uses ink pads that can only be replaced by authorized dealer.

Do not buy any tank Printers from Epson.

Original review Jul 08, 2025

Printer uses ink pads that can only be replaced by an authorized dealer. Support suggested I buy a new one at a discount, not happening.

Only lasted 2 years and now is completely unusable. This is an unacceptable practice, implying a bait and switch practice.

The closest repair shop is 61 miles away, cost including shipping $124.00 (not including my cost to ship to shop) for a $300.00 printer.

I will never buy another Epson product.

Cons:
  • Required authorized dealer only pad replacement

Will not honor warranty

Epson is by far one of the worst printer companies I have ever dealt with. I have the Epson Ecotank 15000.

It's still under warranty, and they will not honor it. They stop working after at least a year, and then you have to purchase another one.

All of the agents are inconsiderate. Nobody has $800-1,000 to waste on a printer that will stop working after a year of use.

Print quality on glossy or premium glossy paper

I just bought a Epson XP-970 direct from Epson.. Print quality on 8 1/2 x 11 plain paper is fine.

When printing on glossy the sharpness of the image is degraded. Does not matter if

from a word doc, adobe or direct jpg.

Older Epson printers glossy improved the image sharpness. Next photo printer will be a Cannon.
