With so many of us working from home or helping our kids with homework, I want to make sure you have the right printer that’s up for the task. The Epson EcoTank makes it easy.
This printer has super-sized, easy-to-fill ink tanks and comes with a RIDICULOUS amount of ink — enough to print thousands of pages. No more rushing to the store and waiting for your online order to arrive to replace an ink cartridge in between print jobs. The quality is excellent, too.
