Epson XP-6005 Printer Review

Our Verdict:

The Epson XP-6005 is an A4 multifunction colour printer with a copier and scanner incorporated into the unit. With a compact footprint and low price tag, this is affordable for a domestic setting and can also be useful in a small office. With Wi-Fi connection and mobile apps, printing from multiple devices is easy and the quality of both documents and images is very high, making it ideal for holiday photos. However, during busy periods this printer may not be the most efficient due to the low paper capacity and slow printing speeds. Additionally, there is no fax function, which may be a drawback in an office.
