Using this product for continuously printing

I initially bought one of these printers three years ago, and it was time to replace it because it was spilling ink all over the printed page so I ordered another one just like it. I ended up changing my mind after realizing how much money I’ve spent on ink. It’s ridiculous. I probably have spent over $1000 in the past year. My printer will tell me the ink is out even though the ink cartridges are still someone full. Stay away from inkjet printers like this one unless you want to throw your money away. I’m going to buy a laser printer. Laser printers are more money up front, but the toner lasts a lot longer than ink cartridges.

To be fair, I wasn't able to setup the printer to give a fair review. I've had great experiences with all the Epson printers I have purchased. You can't (and I don't) expect manufacturers to be perfect. Sometimes you just get a bad one.The printer would not recognize the Maintenance Box that came with the printer. I installed and reinstalled the Maintenance box several times with no luck. I purchased 2 new maintenance boxes from Amazon, still without any luck. I lightly cleaned the contacts of the PCB (both on the printer and maintenance box) with a Q-Tip. Still wouldn't recognize the Maintenance box. I called Epson Tech Support (Amazon, check the number you're giving out for Epson Tech Support) for help. They told me it was a hardware issue. They started the warranty process. They have 2 options: You can either jump through hoops while they're on fire or You can walk barefoot through a pit of snakes. Obviously, those weren't the options, but the options require a lot of leg work on the buyers side. Amazon's returns are easy, but most resellers would like you to seek help from the manufacturer first. The one suggestion I would like to see Amazon returns implement, is to include an option to simply swap/replace the item. I just want a another one of the same thing, but you have to return it, they credit your credit card (some people use their debit card and don't have the extra funds to buy another while they wait for a refund because they're a broke college student or whatever), you purchase it again, wait for it to ship to you.Once I receive my replacement printer I will update my review.

I didn't even have this printer for a year and I had to call for 3 different reasons to tech support for things that went wrong with the printer. It stopped working after only having it for 9 months. I'm glad I had a warranty to get a different kind of printer. Definitely not worth all the hassle!
