The Epson EcoTank ET-4800 is an all-in-one inkjet printer that stands out due to its EcoTank system, which uses refillable ink tanks instead of traditional ink cartridges. This system offers extremely low-cost printing, making it a great option for users who have high-volume printing needs and want to reduce their printing costs. It is designed for home offices and small businesses.
Key Features:
1. EcoTank System:
Refillable Ink Tanks: The ET-4800 comes with high-capacity ink tanks instead of traditional cartridges. The ink bottles are easy to fill, and one set of ink bottles can last much longer than the equivalent number of cartridges. This results in significantly lower printing costs.
High Page Yield: The EcoTank system can print thousands of pages per refill, making it a cost-effective choice for users who need to print regularly. Epson claims that the ET-4800 can print up to 7,500 pages in black and 6,000 pages in color with the included ink.
2. All-in-One Functionality:
Print: The ET-4800 delivers high-quality printing with 4800 x 1200 dpi resolution for crisp text and vibrant color prints. It supports borderless printing, ideal for photos.
Scan: It includes a flatbed scanner with an optical resolution of 1200 x 2400 dpi, capable of scanning both photos and documents with good clarity.
Copy: The printer has copying capabilities with the option to adjust settings like copy density, resizing, and multiple copies.
Fax: It supports faxing via the Super G3 fax standard, allowing you to send and receive faxes efficiently.
3. Wireless and Mobile Printing:
Wi-Fi Connectivity: The ET-4800 supports Wi-Fi for wireless printing, making it easy to print from laptops, smartphones, and tablets without the need for physical cables.
Mobile Printing Support: Compatible with mobile printing solutions such as Apple AirPrint, Google Cloud Print, and Epson's iPrint app, allowing you to print directly from your mobile device.
Wi-Fi Direct: Enables direct wireless printing from devices without needing to connect to a router.
4. Print Speed and Performance:
Print Speed: The ET-4800 prints at speeds of up to 10 pages per minute (ppm) in black and white and 5 ppm in color, which is good for its price range.
Automatic Document Feeder (ADF): The printer features a 30-sheet ADF, which is great for scanning or copying multi-page documents automatically, saving time and effort.
5. Paper Handling:
250-Sheet Paper Tray: The ET-4800 comes with a 250-sheet input tray, which reduces the frequency of paper refills. It also includes a manual feed slot for printing on specialty media like envelopes or photo paper.
Supports Multiple Paper Sizes: It can handle various paper sizes, including Letter, Legal, and 4x6-inch photo paper.
6. Compact Design:
The Epson ET-4800 is designed to be relatively compact, making it a good choice for small office spaces or home offices where desk space is limited.
7. Energy Efficiency:
The printer is designed with energy-saving features to minimize power consumption, contributing to reduced operating costs.
The Epson EcoTank ET-4800 is an affordable, efficient, and highly cost-effective printer, especially suited for high-volume printing. Its EcoTank system eliminates the need for costly ink cartridges, offering incredibly low running costs with high page yields. It combines printing, scanning, copying, and faxing functions into one compact unit, with strong wireless and mobile printing support. The addition of an ADF and a large paper capacity makes it convenient for office tasks.
