Epson's ink tanks consistently top our tests — and this $200 EcoTank ET-2800 deal is perfect for students
We've been impressed with the tank printers from Epson, and this budget 3-in-1 model features cartridge-free printing and up to two years of free ink.
Epson's EcoTank ink tank printers have consistently impressed reviewers in tests, thanks to their use of affordable bottled ink. The company's EcoTank ET-2800 printer is currently on sale for $200, down from $240. This deal makes it a great option for students or anyone looking to upgrade their office setup.
The deal includes four bottles of ink, which Epson claims can last up to two years, making it a cost-effective solution compared to traditional inkjet cartridges. With wireless setup, a flatbed scanner, and a copier, the ET-2800 covers the essentials for most home users. It can print up to 10 pages per minute and boasts good text and photo quality.
However, it's not for everyone. Skip this model if you need automatic two-sided printing, scan or copy multi-page documents, or only print occasionally, as the lack of an automatic document feeder could lead to occasional drying out of the print heads.
Epson's estimated two-year ink coverage for an average household at $200 makes it an affordable option. Currently, it's priced at its going rate across major retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Staples, making this a reliable price point.
