Epson TM C3500

I have the C3500 and it's a real pain. Then you have to spend another $300 on software just to print. If you have a PC it might work out the box for you but for Apple Users please get the other models that support Mac. They did not say it would not work with Apple anywhere, Used ink, Used everything then when Im trying to get it to work I had to research to find out. The only reason for delay in installing COVID and had to wait for new office. Now I lost $1400 PLEASE DONT DO IT.

Black comes out like gray, very blotchy. We tried changing the cartridges and still nothing. Also the print quality sucks. You can't read small letters. The same label I've been printing from my $80.00 cannon printer has higher quality than this over priced junk.

I love my printer, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make it wireless. It didn’t even give me the option

We looked around for a while to get a good label machine. Most companies are looking for $7K and up for their machines, and while those do run quicker (8 labels a second) the C3500 does not seem to be a slouch. We print on glossy paper, and have some poly to try out. The colors stay (pigment inks are better than dye) and look OK. This printer does have some banding, and the print driver does some strange things at times with the information from Corel, but worlds better than Primera. Plus, I fully trust epson's hardware, there is a reason all of these small printer companies use their heads... they just work. Ive been in the print industry for 20 years now. Ive seen a lot of crap out there, and in this area, which is very niche, you get a lot of it at high prices with minimal support, because they know you dont have much choice. So I did do the square trade warranty on this unit, but I dont think we will actually need it.

Do your homework when looking for this printer. I have seen better offerers less expensive and offering $200 worth of free labels
