Best Epson Color Printers

Epson L1800

Rating: 4.9

One of the most expensive printers in our ranking. Not every resident of Russia will dare to give more than 40 thousand rubles for a printer. However, this device was not created for the average user. This device is designed for photographers who want to print pictures in perfect quality. The fact is that printing is carried out with the help of six colors, and the minimum volume of a drop is 1.5 square meters. Excellent performance for inkjet printer! But the photographer will appreciate not only that. The device has a built-in system of continuous ink supply. This means that you can print photos at least every day, the ink will have to be poured not too often.

The manufacturer claims that the stock of available capacity is enough for 1800 pages. The bay of the new ink portion is as simple as possible. It is impossible not to notice that consumables are relatively inexpensive - it is impossible to splurge on their purchase, which cannot be said about purchasing the printer itself.

The device can print with resolution up to 5760x1440 dpi. If you choose a smaller parameter, you can achieve a very high print speed - up to 15 ppm. This applies to both printing in color and output of black and white documents.

Unfortunately, the ideal printer is still impossible to name. The fact is that it can only be controlled by a computer. There is no slot for a memory card from which this or that document could be printed. But the most disappointing lack of Wi-Fi is to pull the cable to your PC or router. It is strange that the manufacturer decided to save on this.

Six colors and an integrated CISS are, of course, good. But how could all this affect the price tag so much? In fact, the high cost of the device is due to its large size and support for A3 paper. This is another argument in favor of the fact that the printer was created more for a professional than for an ordinary person.

Epson L810

Rating: 4.8

Another inkjet printer in our ranking, using six colors for printing.And, not least, it also has a built-in CISS! The main difference from the above model is that the maximum supported here is printing on A4 paper. So, this device is intended mainly for home use. The size reduction benefited the price tag - you can buy an Epson L810 for about 27 thousand rubles. It is still expensive, but you will forget about the money spent after the first printed photo!

The device uses piezoelectric inkjet printing technology. When using photo paper, absolutely all shades are worked out, it is not without reason that six colors are at the disposal of the printer. It helps to achieve perfect quality and high resolution, reaching 5760x1440 dpi. If you do not want to waste ink in a large volume, but you are not printing photos, you can reduce the parameters by achieving a 37-38 ppm output.

But, of course, this printer was still created not for printing ordinary documents. His element is photography. And it prints them very quickly - one picture in the traditional 10x15 cm format is born in just 12 seconds. Also, this model can print on labels, film and even optical discs. As for the ink supply, it is enough for all the same 1800 color pages. It seems that for an ordinary user this is a huge number - many buyers will fill in a new batch only once in a year or two.

The Epson L810 printer does not know how to scan, as there is no fax in it. However, the manufacturer still decided to give his creation a color display. With it you can get acquainted with the contents of the SD-card, the slot for which is also present here. This is a good way to quickly print a photo taken with a SLR, system or compact camera. In other cases, it is easier to use a computer that is connected to it via a USB cable. Unfortunately, there is no Wi-Fi module either - the Japanese company Epson introduces it into their creations extremely rarely. In this regard, you can only print a document from a smartphone with certain tricks.

Epson L312

Rating: 4.7

Another printer in our ranking that can boast an integrated system of continuous ink supply. Traditionally, it is located on the side of the printer, in a relatively small black box. This model is intended for use in a small office or at home. Inkjet printing here is implemented only with the help of four colors, and therefore you should not hope for the perfect quality of photos. But the price of this device is reduced to 11 thousand rubles imputed.

Importantly, the device can print with a resolution of up to 5760x1440 pixels. However, the print speed at such a high setting is far from ideal. The device will spend up to 70 seconds for one photo in 10x15 cm format! If, however, reduce the resolution by printing ordinary documents, you can achieve an output of 15 ppm. If black and white documents are needed, then the speed increases even more - up to 33 ppm.

The fact that the minimum droplet volume here reaches 3 is about the decrease in the capabilities of the printer, if we compare it with the models considered earlier. However, the printer is not in vain in our rating - many users are quite satisfied with the result. They are also delighted with the CISS - you need to fill in new ink only after 7500 color and 4500 black and white pages. Yes, and there is a set of such ink is relatively inexpensive - we need only four colors, not five or six.

This product does not know how to print on optical discs. But let's admit: this opportunity is required to hundredths of a percent of buyers. But the lack of Wi-Fi will notice more people. Also confuses a decent percentage of marriage.Before buying, it would not hurt to check the paper feeder - in some instances it leaves large dents around the edges of the sheet. Also, not everyone will be satisfied with the sounds that are issued by this printer.

Epson L120

Rating: 4.7

The cheapest Epson printer, if we talk exclusively about color models with integrated CISS. In Russia, about 8 thousand rubles are asked for this device. Its creators did their best to reduce the size and weight. In this regard, the device does not have the function of duplex printing and any other important features. Inkjet printing is carried out here with the help, as you can guess, of four colors. And you can immediately pay attention to the small height of the box in which the ink tanks are located. However, even with its size, the next “refill” is required only after 6500 color or 4000 black and white pages.

Unfortunately, this printer prints only with a resolution of 720x720 dpi. This allows you to recommend Epson L120 only for printing documents. No, he also copes with photos, but not in the best way. Also, someone may be confused by the low print speed. This model produces only 4.5 color pages per minute, with black-and-white printing, this parameter approximately doubles. Add to this the “warm-up” before printing the first page. In short, such results are unlikely to suit office staff.

Like other Epson products, this printer does not have an integrated Wi-Fi module. This means that you have to pull the USB cable to the computer, which, of course, needs to be bought separately. However, now printers and multifunction devices almost never come with their own wire.

Best Epson Black and White Printers

Epson WorkForce Pro WF-M5190DW

Rating: 4.9

Great "workhorse." Such a printer can be regularly seen in Russian and foreign offices. Its users note that the device perfectly copes with printing black and white documents. As much as possible, it supports A4 paper, but in most offices nothing is needed. Much more important is the fact that even excessive use of the printer will not lead to breakdown - as much as possible it is designed to print 35,000 pages per month!

The product uses piezoelectric inkjet printing technology. But if the models discussed above were equipped with an integrated system of continuous ink supply, then the usual cartridge is used here. However, its replacement is required only after 2500 prints. Even in the office, this procedure will not be carried out too often.

This model differs from many analogs in automatic two-sided printing. The maximum resolution is 1200x2400 dpi, which is a great result for a black and white printer. But even more office workers will appreciate the printing speed, capable of reaching 37 ppm. Some difficulties for the printer causes only the first print, but it also takes only 7 seconds.

The device has a fairly large size. But it got roomy trays. By default, 330 sheets are placed in the paper feed tray. But if the printer is used in a fairly large office, then you can perform special actions, as a result of which the volume of the tray increases to 580 sheets. As for paper output, according to the standard and as much as possible a stack of 150 sheets is placed in the tray.

About the office destination of the printer says the presence of the port RJ-45. With it, you can connect the device to the router. This allows you to send commands to print from any computer located nearby.A traditional USB connection is also available. However, you can do without any wires. There are Wi-Fi module and support for AirPrint technology. This means that you can print a document not only from a computer, but also, say, from a smartphone.

Epson M105

Rating: 4.8

This device is primarily intended for home use. Maximum he prints on A4 paper. The height of the device turned out to be very small, but you cannot say the same about the width. The fact is that the printer comes with an integrated continuous ink supply system, which is located on the side of the device. When you first use the device, you will be asked to pour pigment ink into the container present here. Repeat the operation will have only after 6000 printed pages. And do you need to say that you only need to buy black ink? In short, owning this printer is as inexpensive as possible.

In a large office to put this printer is not recommended. No, the print quality with a resolution of 1440x720 dpi is fine. Yes, and print speed, reaching 34 ppm is an impressive figure. But in an office with a large number of computers and regular printing, you can quickly encounter damage to the printer. It is simply not designed to print tens of thousands of documents per month. Also, the office immediately becomes not enough paper feed tray, which here holds only 100 sheets. Well, the paper output tray is even less capacious - it is designed only for 30 sheets.

The printer is capable of printing not only on paper, but also on all kinds of cards, labels and envelopes. On these materials, the device can print without borders, than not every black-and-white printer can boast. Manage this device is offered using a computer or smartphone. In the first case, the USB connection is most often used, while the signal from the mobile device is sent over Wi-Fi. The printer itself has a minimum number of buttons - they are mainly used to turn on the device and activate the wireless module.

Epson WorkForce AL-M300DN

Rating: 4.7

One of the most affordable printers for use in a large office. In Russia, this model is sold for 8-10 thousand rubles. However, the device got into our rating not only because of the low price tag. We really liked his print speed. The first imprint comes to light after just 6 seconds. Then the device accelerates to 35 ppm! If you increase the print resolution to 1200x1200 dpi, then the speed of output of documents decreases, but still to quite acceptable numbers. Also, the device is capable of automatic duplex printing. This means that the office worker will not need to turn the sheets, risking to face the fact that even pages will turn upside down.

The fact that the manufacturer declared the possibility of printing up to 100 thousand pages per month speaks about the office purpose of the printer. In fact, it is a continuous daily print! This is also evidenced by the paper feed tray, the capacity of which can be increased from 300 to 550 sheets. As for the paper output tray, it is designed for 150 sheets, which is enough in 99% of cases.There is also a manual feed tray - it holds 50 sheets.

It should be noted that Epson WorkForce AL-M300DN uses LED type printing. The stock of cartridge used here is enough for 2500-2700 pages. In the future, you can buy a cartridge of increased capacity, which is enough for a longer time. The printer is connected to the computer via a USB cable. But in a large office, it is easier to connect the device to the router using the RJ-45 port. Unfortunately, Wi-Fi is missing here. However, at a cost of 10 thousand rubles. one would expect the Japanese manufacturer to save on something. It is surprising that he left the LCD, with which some settings are changed.

Conclusion

Now you know which Epson printers are considered the best. You can choose any of the models discussed above - it is unlikely to disappoint you at least with something. It remains only to determine the price tag and the fact whether you need to print color documents and photos.
