EcoTank ET-M1170 Wireless Monochrome Supertank Printer with Ethernet PLUS 2 Years of Unlimited Ink*,White

I Picked up 3 of these to handle packing slip printing while I pumped out massive amounts of thermal labels with an Industrial thermal label printer. The printers are FAST. And they can be hooked to the network which makes them a lot more usable as far as accessing settings and transferring the data. It's a little difficult to get familiar with these printers when there's a paper jam but once you find how easy it is to pull the back out and rip out the paper, it's a cakejob. What impresses me the most about these printers is it draws the next sheet while it's still printing the current page. Absolutely fantastic for the fast print jobs I needed. Also, the ecotank/supertank Epson has is the way to go. I'm so tired of using a CIS with their printers. Now that they're built in, it's clean and easy to handle. Epson makes these special bottles for filling ink, in an attempt to force you to buy their own ink they make it look impossible to unscrew the bottle top, but you can and then fill your own cheaper ink. Just make sure to use quality ink if you deviate from Epson's. Don't just put any ink in or you'll clog your heads. The only drawback worth stating is it does seem like it pumps through ink a lot faster than some of their cheaper printers and the old workforce printers. It could just be that I'm able to slam through packing slips faster and I'm getting a lot more done but I have had to fill the printers a few times already. No biggie though. Performance is what I needed. It's a perfect print job and really, really QUICK!

Best printer on the market if you don't need speed. I think pigmented black is the way to go way over toner. My printer has over 150,000 pages printed and it still works like a charm; but you need to clean the rollers with alcohol every 5000 pages or so.

I love this printer! I wanted a printer that is economical to run and only prints black. It's very easy to use and the ink bottle it came with is still about 2/3 full after 4 months of printing a few pages a week. The ink for this printer lasts a long time and is very inexpensive. I switched from a color laser printer that was costing about $400 a year in toner cartridges. This Epson gives me all I need to print text at a great price.

I've had this for only 3 months. While printing today, I heard a terrible loud clicking sound, then the printer just stopped saying it was a paper jam. I removed the jammed paper, tried it again, and still heard the noise, plus another jam. I opened the back cover, and literal plastic pieces from the back cover mechanism fell out. I'm so disappointed because I was loving this printer. This printer was one of my first impressions of Epson. and it was going great. I've been a Canon girl for years, but wanted to try Epson for the print quality. What I'm noticing is Epson has better print quality but I guess cheaper materials and parts. My Canons never had pieces break inside of them. I searched for a replacement back cover, but that seems to be impossible to buy on it's own. My only option is to either order another one of these Epson's for now $300 instead of the $220 I paid just 3 months ago, or just trash the boxes of ink I had already purchased and go back to Canon. Update - Plot Twist. I bought another one. 😭 And increasing the rating to 2 stars. Because even though I'm pissed, their monochrome print quality and still better than Canon for documents. Black prints black, not dark gray.

My wife and I have had this printer for close to two years. I got it because we really only need black and white printing from time to time. I love that you can just get a bottle of black ink for an affordable price and it stays good for a while. Keeping up with the printer cartridges was getting pricey. If you use this from your laptop, it’s fairly simple and intuitive. The issues that we’ve run into are that printing from your cell phone is a real pain and that I need to run the cleaning features every time I use it or it starts getting wavy. For the cell phone, look at the app you need to download. It’s outdated and you have to switch to the printer WiFi to use it. It’s also best if you print from the app, not the document itself. For me, it’s not enough of a pain to get rid of it yet but I wouldn’t buy it again. My wife hates it. Maybe if we used it daily it would be better.

I’m a tattoo artist so I use this printer to make my stencils, instead of using the epson ink I use inkjet stencil ink. (Yes, it is on Amazon as well) You’d have to use a syringe to put the ink in because of the nozzle and fittings that the printer and ink bottle have. If you are printing from an iPad or phone then you would have to download the epson print App. Although it does print wirelessly it isn’t AirPrint capable. When you are going to print from let’s say Procreate then you’d go to share , pdf , scroll down to epson print and choose quality and quantity. Very easy and set up was a breeze through the app. This printer prints stencils for me that are sharp and vivid, almost as if I hand stenciled each sheet. At first I was skeptical just because it didn’t seem as high tech as my last printer that has a fancy led screen and such but it seems that epson made this printer specifically for those of us who just want to print, those of us who can easily navigate our phones and the apps in them but don’t care to understand a printer menu. I’m pleased with the results and highly recommend. (*I only use this printer for tattoo stencils, I have not used this printer for any other type of printing.)

like the way it performs

Prints very clear text, and very fast. I have other color printers, so for volume B&W documents, this is great. So cheap to operate, as the ink costs way, way less than toner or ink cartridges. My color inkjet mega tank printer has issues with one or more colors not being used for a few weeks and drying out, so I have to cycle a bunch of ink through the system. Since this is only black ink, I don't have that problem, so it is ideal for the office.

Working nicely

The printer is fantastic! It's easy to set up and use. If you frequently need to print a lot, this is the ideal printer for you. Additionally, you receive a rebate on your ink for two years, making it a great choice for students who need to print all their notes. I was confused about the different kinds of printers, but I do not regret buying this one.

good

If you looking for a compact printer then this is the best one. Good quality printing, good speed and it also does duplex printing.
