Pros & Cons

Pros

  • EcoTank Ink System: The refillable tank design eliminates the need for expensive cartridges, providing a massive ink supply that users find much more convenient and environmentally friendly.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: The printer is highly economical over time because the bottled ink is reasonably priced and lasts significantly longer than traditional cartridges, with some users reporting thousands of prints on a single fill.
  • Easy Mobile Integration: The Epson Smart Panel app is frequently praised for making the initial setup and wireless printing from smartphones a seamless and intuitive process.

Cons

  • Small LCD Screen: The 1.44-inch display is widely criticized for being far too small and difficult to read, often requiring users to use a magnifying glass or flashlight to navigate menus.
  • Connectivity and Setup Issues: Many reviewers experienced significant frustration with the printer dropping its WiFi connection or found the initial driver installation on computers to be overly complex and time-consuming.
  • Paper Handling Limitations: The lack of an internal paper tray and reliance on a rear feeder with limited capacity is a common complaint, along with reports of frequent paper jams during automatic double-sided printing.

    We purchased this Epson Ecotank specifically for sublimation printing. It’s easy to convert, simple to set up. Walked you right through how to set up and test. Must buy sublimation ink however. I have a Ecotank for normal printing and this setup. Wouldn’t use anything else

    Not loving it. Just bought and set it up. Doesn’t hold a lot of paper. Seems to get jammed a lot. May have to return.

    The printer does everything I need it to do. The black and white print is clear, the color print is vibrant.

    Setup is a very easy with a smartphone wizard. Filling the tanks is easy and there is no mess at all because of a very well designed filling system. Print quality is crisp. Connecting to WiFi required multiple attempts even with the correct SSID and password. Multiple tries failed, eventually I enabled the 2.4 GHz band and after another 3 attempts it connect and to the 5 GHz band as I had expected and wanted.
    One big surprise after the wonderful phone setup, the wizard provides a link to setup a Windows 11 computer. You would think that they would have the driver for the specific model there yet is was troubleshooting instructions that wasted my time. Looking around the Epson site, I found the printer section. They listed a number of common printers yet not this one. I did a search and wound up on a page that looked similar to the first one the smart phone app provided. I searched for ET-2980 and landed on a page designed to sell the printer. In small print was support and that lead to the printer downloads. Come on Epson, you can do better! At least the installer ran a wizard and took care of everything.
