Print quality comes out VERY blurry, some prints look like it’s an old school 3D affect. You can see the red and blue . I’ve had 4 different Epson eco tanks and this one is not meeting expectations.

It was difficult to set up with my mac. Every time I change paper is have to restart printer, computer and modem. The display screen on the computer is too small and it requires too many steps to make changes. I think the printer is designed to work with a smartphone or table. Bottom line, it's been a frustrating experience

I have loved my ET-5800 and the ET-16650 that I upgraded to three years ago. I wanted a separate printer to just print packing inserts for the orders I receive as a small business owner. I don't really need anything fancy and it doesn't need to be pigment ink like my other printer...but I do need it to actually function correctly. My ET-3958 arrived today and I spent 3 hours just trying to get it to print without looking like a car ran over the piece of paper. It leaves black smudges everywhere. These are not ink smears from what I printed...these are just random black smudges like there is something dirty in the machine that is getting on the paper. I did print guide cleaning, printhead cleaning, print quality adjustment, printhead adjustment...nothing worked. And trying to print auto duplex which was the main thing I wanted in a printer...the end of the back page ghosts like the paper moved while it was printing. I've never had such a horrible experience right out of the box...with my previous Epson printers or any other brand. This printer is defective.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
