I Installed a firmware update, and now the printer can no longer "recognize" my print cartridges which had been working fine until the update. Word on the Internet is that Epson deliberately tries to punish people who buy replacement cartridges from other vendors, so...

Verified ReviewerNot happy with customer support
I have had a Epson ET 7700 eco-tank printer for more than a year. I havent even ran the first set of ink through it. Ive been on the phone with Epson a few times. Says its Hardware failure. They dont want to do anything for me other than give me a discount on a new one. I have a $500 printer thats no good
User's recommendation: Don’t buy Epson horrible customer support.

Verified ReviewerNew printer setup
Great help over the phone. Took a while to fix. Wireless direct without wifi network wouldn't setup. Instruction included in packaging may need to be revised and updated for installation process on Win10 device. Also, the included ink containers in packaged box where less than half full.
User's recommendation: Incredible potential after setup and working.

My printer won’t work
It keeps saying turn on the printer again. See your documentation for more details I turn it off and on and even unplugged it and plugged it back in and it is still not working. I checked for paper jams too and there was nothing. It is very frustrating and I need help!

Verified ReviewerExtremely Frustrated!!!!
I have had many replacements of the Workforce Pro WF-3720 and have had a different problem with each of them. A printer is critical to my daily needs and to have to go days without a replacement is absolutely unacceptable! I will NEVER buy another EPSON printer again! I understand your policy is to give a refurbished printer but after multiple replacements one would think there would be a different solution, rather than continue to get a malfunctioning printer. I am so disappointed in your company and my frustration level is beyond measure!

Ripped off ahain
I had a workforce printer that was a total POS. When the wife told me to go get a new one I took the workforce in the garage and beat it dust with a hammer. Felt good. Fast-forward to another Epson POS the XP-7100. Never worked right out of the box. I'll never understand how a company is allowed to sell its products in this day and age when they just don't do what they say. But shame on me for buying this POC. Epson FM. Your company is full of crap and so are your printers. I'm going to go buy another Epson and give you this one back. You deserve no less. I'm in business and what I have to say to the people I deal with daily should cost you

Unable to configure Epson Sylus Photo 1390
I have an issue of printer unable to detect the ink in the cartridge despite using the recommended ink. The printer's power button blinks with ink button steady. How am I suppose to resolve this matter?

Printer repair and aftermarket supplies reseller here. For those that have downloaded the firmware updates by Epson and they bricked your printer, just be aware that HP does this as well.
Brother is starting to use smart chips. So before you shoot yourself in the foot, Buyer Beware. To avoid bricking, always, always, disable automatic updates and never update the firmware unless you have an issue that can be corrected by it. Even then, make sure your supplier is selling current chip versions.
I wouldn't trust many of the sellers on Amazon, nor many on the internet in general to sell you current product. The quality aftermarket companies are working on updating their chips, but it takes time. Most, if not all, of the aftermarket cartridges for EPSON come from overseas (China). There are only a few aftermarket chip makers in the world and they specialized in different market segments.
Manufacturers have lost recent cases in court on this issue and in the past, and are constantly being sued by practices like this. EPSON has a pending case in Federal Court against them. HP may as well. The cases will take time, but by the time it is resolved, your printer will be outdated and not working.
The manufacturers must be very careful on how they present these updates to the consumer, they cannot be sneaky about it, so read everything before purchasing their products (printer, cartridges, the prompts during set-up, go through the menus to disable the updates...everything). They are under no obligation to give away their market share or make it easy for aftermarket companies, though they are prohibited from bundling and forcing you to purchase their products (Magnuson-Moss ACT of 1975). Another note, Manufacturers like EPSON, CANON and HP will also sue the aftermarket companies preemptively on patent infringements (chips, cartridge components and design, etc.) to stop or slow the erosion of their very profitable market.
Personally, I would never recommend an EPSON printer and not because of this reason but the product is trash from a service perspective. The EPSON Ink printers have a slew of issues with their print heads and have for years.
