Epson new L1800 with ink tank system
Sure, the price of printers are getting lower, but it’s the high cost of ink that consumers complain about. To provide the alternative printer for price conscious consumers, Epson has come out with a printer with ink tank system–to produce more prints at lower cost– about three years ago. This month, the company released the latest models of the L-Series Original Ink Tank Printers.
With the four new models being introduced into the market – the L120, L1300, L1800 and L555 – Epson continues to offer an incredible print volume at the lowest cost per page of any genuine supplies printer.
