- EcoTank ET-2910 series: for reliable, low-cost printing, scanning and copying.
- EcoTank ET-2920 series: with the added convenience of a colour 3.7cm screen.
- EcoTank ET-4900 series: with an Automatic Document Feeder and touchscreen, tailored for home office and small office users requiring fast, reliable printing solutions.
Connectivity
With integrated Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct connectivity, users can print from laptops, smartphones and tablets, while enhanced support for mesh Wi-Fi networks helps to deliver a stable and reliable wireless printing experience.
The printers feature Epson’s Smart Panel app, enabling users to print, copy and scan directly from their smart devices, as well as monitor ink levels, troubleshoot issues and manage printer settings remotely, so long as an internet connection is available.
AirPrint for Apple Users
All EcoTanks now features compatibility with Apple AirPrint™ that lets end users wirelessly print photos, emails, web pages and documents from their iPad, iPhone and iPod touch without installing any drivers. AirPrint features include easy detection, automatic media selection, and business-quality finishing options.
Lee Withers, Product Manager for Consumer Printers at Epson Europe B.V. commented:
“One of the biggest frustrations consumers have with home printing is the ongoing cost and inconvenience of replacing cartridges. These new EcoTank printers are designed to remove that pain point completely, offering families and home office users a reliable, easy-to-use printer with an ultra-low cost-per-page. With their compact footprint, modern connectivity and high page yields, these printers are ideal for anyone looking for hassle-free everyday printing that delivers both convenience and long-term value.”
Designed for consistent high-quality output, one set of replacement ink bottles can print up to 4,700 black and white pages and 7,500 colour pages (based on Epson’s internal testing), significantly reducing the need for refills and helping to minimise waste through Epson’s cartridge-free system.
