Product Information

The EcoTank Pro ET-5800 Series consist of three all-in-one color printers geared toward small offices. It has standard printing, copying, scanning and faxing features. The three devices are: As a rule, home and office printers from any brand should last between three and five years, depending on daily usage and maintenance. For what it’s worth, Epson currently offers a 5-year warranty on selected EcoTank printers. The Epson WorkForce WF-7210DTW represents an affordable, entry-level A3 inkjet printer largely aimed at the micro business community. The HP 9015 holds just 250 sheets from one input source, as does the Lexmark MC2535adwe, though the latter also has a one-sheet override tray and can be expanded to a total of 1,451 sheets. The Brother MFC-J5945DW holds 600 sheets from three sources, and the Epson WF-C5790supports 330 sheets (expandable to 830) from two input trays. First, you'll want to choose the right ink delivery system. Epson offer some of the best inkjet printers, best laser printers, and best ink tank printers on the market. As a rule, inkjet printers are cheap to buy but expensive to run. Laser printers and ink tank printers (Epson's EcoTank range) are expensive to buy, but cheap to run. If you're working to a budget, our team has rounded up the best cheap printers, too.

Epson ScanSmart is a combination scanner interface and modular app with several document management features, including sequential file naming, keyword indexing, document archiving, optical character recognition (OCR), and more. Finally, the fax utility speaks for itself.I can print with a wireless connection on my home network, but not on a VPN (virtual private network). What should I do? I tried to install the product on my Mac with a wireless connection, but the installation failed. What should I do? Printing from a mobile phone was pretty seamless. The iOS version of the Epson iPrint app worked well on an iPhone 7, and was intuitive, except for a couple unsupported formats. For example, the “print photos” function took me to the Photos gallery to select pictures for printing. But, because the app does not support the iOS Notes format, selecting the Epson iPrint app directly from Notes resulted in a “format not supported” message. The same was true of .png files (screenshots). However, the workaround was easy in both cases: Instead of selecting Epson iPrint from the share menu, I selected the native “print” function and then selected the ET-5850 from the list of printers. The ET-5850 supports Apple AirPrint and Mopria, and there is an Android version of the iPrint app, as well. I can't print from Windows with a wireless connection after I replaced my router. What should I do?

Besides the printer and scanner drivers, Epson throws in Epson Photo+, Epson Scan 2, Epson ScanSmart, and Epson Fax Utility programs. Photo+ is a simple but handy photo layout and arrangement utility, and Epson Scan 2 is a comprehensive scanner interface with three levels of expertise (Home, Office, and Professional) ranging from basic settings for beginners to tweaking your scans as desired. Epson Scan 2 provides home, office, and pro modes that increase in complexity. Extremely low ink costs and exceptional performance make the ET-5850 a great fit for a busy office. With a document feeder, duplexer, three paper trays, and two-sided scanning, the ET-5850 is likely to meet the demands of most busy offices.Pigment Inks– DURABrite ET inks are pigment based offering sharp text and graphics. They are also durable, water resistant and smudge proof.

You'll also want to consider core features - the best all-in-one printers offer plenty of functionality, including print, scan, copy, and fax. But you may not need these bells and whistles, and the best home printers will be fine for most.Speed are also a factor when choosing the best Epson printers, so it's worth selecting the fastest printers in your budget. You may not need speed over other features, but generally, if this is an issue, select a wired connection, as even the best wireless printers struggle to maintain consistent print speeds. The CD-ROM includes two scanning programs. ScanSmart is required for using the “scan to computer” function from the ET-5850's touch screen. In Windows 10, ScanSmart's home screen offers double-sided and single-sided scanning options, and plenty of file saving options. One function you might miss, however, is auto cropping. The scanning area menu only offers document sizes such as letter, A4, etc. If you scan smaller objects, such as a 4-by-6-inch photo or three-fold brochure cover, you will get a lot of white space you'll need to crop out later. The Epson Scan 2 program provides TWAIN compliance. The WorkForce WF-110 is Epson’s smallest printer - with built-in Wi-Fi and rechargeable battery, it’s designed for total portability for business users who need print capabilities on the go.
