Epson L1800

Rating: 4.9

Epson L1800

At one time, it was Epson that revolutionized the market and launched the first printer with integrated CISS - L800. Now the line is actively developing, and the flagship model has been updated to version L1800. The technique is created for true connoisseurs of high-quality images. The design of the CISS includes 6 ink tanks, the filling of which takes no more than a minute. And the starting kit is enough for 1.5 thousand photos of 10x15 format (the cost of one is about 1.5 rubles). The maximum resolution is impressive - 5760x1440 dpi. This is the largest figure among the models presented in the rating. The size of the drop is 1.5 pl.

The Epson L1800 printer works with almost any paper. Density can reach 300 g / m2. The model is ideal for students, office staff, small printing houses, photo salons, which require large volumes of printing. And among the available formats, not only A4, but also A3 (that is, it is possible to issue drawings, plans, schemes, posters, etc.). Our experts note the thoughtful design of the L1800, which prevents leakage into the CISS during transport.

Potential customers of the printer can be repelled by the high price, the cumbersome equipment, the small capacity of the containers compared to competitors, the lack of popular features (Wi-Fi, auto power on, auto power off). It does not print on films and labels, and after prolonged use, it is unstable and captures glossy paper. But the L1800 was in the first place in the ranking due to record-breaking performance, reliability and economy. With sufficient daily workload, the price of the model pays off several dozen times.

The M105 is a real “workhorse” that can continuously provide huge volumes. A few more reasons for installing this printer in your office: compact size, simple setup, the presence of a Wi-Fi module. Included buyers will find a pair of containers with ink, which is enough for 11,000 prints.
