This 3-in-1 inkjet printer may cost slightly more initially, but the money saved thanks to the two years’ supply of ink will make up for this. With its cartridge-free system, the Epson EcoTank ET2600 is ideal for a busy household or small business that wants to save both time and money. The quality of documents and graphics is generally of a high standard, and with the three-year warranty, any problems should be speedily resolved. However, this is not a photo printer, so for anyone who wants a printer primarily for photographs, there are better options.
Design
The Epson EcoTank ET2600 is a 3-in-1 inkjet printer, measuring 44.5cm x 30.4cm x 16.9 cm, incorporating a colour printer, copier and scanner. It is a cartridge-free system, utilising instead an inbuilt tank. It connects via a USB or Wi-Fi and can also print directly from the Cloud and smart devices using Epsom Connect. The black colour of this printer should complement the décor of any home or office.
Advantages
The Epson ET2600 is economic to run, thanks to its cartridge-free tank, and is supplied with inks that are expected to last for around two years. The printer is easy to set up, and refilling the ink tanks is also straightforward. For added peace of mind, it comes with a three-year warranty. With Epson’s Micro Piezo printhead, the printing quality is clean and clear for both text and graphics.
Disadvantages
Although relatively inexpensive to run, the initial cost of the Epson EcoTank 2600 is fairly high compared to similar printers. The ink tank does make the printer quite bulky, which may not be convenient in smaller households. The quality of photographs is not as high as with many other inkjet printers, and it does not support a borderless feature. It is also fairly noisy when in operation.
