Great performance with a small footprint.
Posted2 April 2025
I am new to Epson, after having had my previous printer for almost 15years. While I was a little skeptical about the price given what I paid a long time ago, its probably about the same. Double sided printing with large ink capacity was what I was after and that exactly what I got.
Quick and easy to setup, I used the website and installed directly via a network connection.
No mess ink installation was great, I will admit given the age of my previous printer, I was using third party ink, NOT ANYMORE, Epson's ink consumables for this beast are super cheap, and given the frequency or rather lack there off as to when you will need them, its not even anything to worry about for a long long time.
