Epson America announces five EcoTank Pro cartridge-free printers
Epson America Inc. announced five new EcoTank® Pro cartridge-free printers designed for cost-effective printing to small businesses, home offices, and workgroups. The new EcoTank Pro Series offers business savings up to 80 percent with low-cost replacement ink bottles vs. standard capacity color laser toner cartridges and leverages Epson PrecisionCore Heat-Free Technology to deliver fast, consistent, heavy-duty performance and print-shop-quality output, the company claims. In addition, Epson also expanded the current EcoTank portfolio with the announcement of the EcoTank ET-15000 all-in-one, designed for SOHO printing up to 13” x 19”.
“Supertank printer adoption is growing rapidly worldwide; in 2019, nearly one out of every three inkjet printers shipped was a Supertank. This new fleet of Pro performers will accelerate that growth,” said Nils Madden, director, Consumer Marketing, Epson America. “PrecisionCore Heat-Free Technology is optimal for office printing and we are looking to further disrupt the industry, demonstrating that cartridge-free EcoTank Pro Series printers are cost-effective and offer fast, reliable professional-quality color prints. While these robust machines are designed for heavy-duty performance, the EcoTank Pro printers are also a great solution for high-volume production now being done at home.”
To further support the printing needs of businesses, Epson is introducing an Unlimited Ink for Two Years Program with EcoTank Pro models. Customers who purchase and register an EcoTank Pro Series printer are eligible to receive reimbursement for replacement ink bottles.
