Which Epson EcoTank should I buy?
When selecting an EcoTank printer, consider your specific needs:
-
Printing size: Models like the EcoTank ET-2860 are suitable for A4 printing, while the EcoTank ET-M16600 supports A3 printing. For those needing professional A3 formats with colour capabilities, the EcoTank ET-15000 is an excellent choice.
-
Colour or mono printing: For colour printing, options include the EcoTank ET-2860 and ET-2850. For monochrome printing, the EcoTank ET-M2170 is a more tailored solution.
No matter which printer you choose, you will get access to the Epson Smart Panel app for mobile printing. You can control your printer, send print jobs and adjust settings right from your phone.
These apps help take the hassle out of printing, they are easy to use so that every print job will send successfully, and if not you'll get a notice to say exactly what the error is in sending to print so that you can try again.
