Many users report initial successful printing with Epson Print Enabler but face frequent connectivity and stability problems such as the app crashing, printer not found errors, and failed print jobs requiring restarts or reinstallations. The app lacks features like print preview and selective page printing, leading to wasted paper. Some users appreciated Epson's technical support, but concerns remain over persistent bugs and unexpected data collection with no clear opt-out, causing frustration and dissatisfaction among Android users.

Cons

Frequent connection issues with printers, often showing printer as unavailable.
App crashes or stops functioning after initial use, requiring device and printer restarts.
Limited or no print preview and inability to select specific pages to print.
Requires multiple restarts or reinstallations to regain functionality.
Collects and transmits user data without clear options to opt out, raising privacy concerns.

Trying to figure out how to get the setting for double sided printing to go back to automatically printing single sided. I swear it used to automatically print single and the setting had to be changed to double if I wanted. Now it's always automatically set for double and I have to remember to change it back to single. Otherwise two pages get printed on one sheet, or I have to wait for the printer to try to print on the second side even when I'm only printing one page.

Well the update did work but now since previous updates to Android you can print to the printer once then if you do another print job it goes into limbo. The print notification is at the top but it never prints. You have to restart your phone cancel the print job and do it all over again. Please fix this issue and I'll change my review!! Still waiting for effects from Epson very disappointed.
