Epson sells 40 million EcoTank printers and launches 6 new models
5 new mono EcoTank models and 1 single function colour model

SYDNEY, 29 October 2019 – To coincide with the incredible milestone of selling over 40,000,000 EcoTank printers globally, Epson Australia has expanded this amazingly popular range with six new EcoTank models consisting of five new mono models and one single function colour model – all of which are cheaper to run and are better for the environment than equivalent laser printers.

All current and new EcoTank printers have:

  • Very low cost per page – from less than half a cent per printed page
  • Very low total cost of ownership
  • Replacement ink bottles that start at just $14.99 for 1,000s of additional pages
  • Up to 2 years of ink included – based upon printing 200 pages per month
  • Less down time due to less moving parts with no drum to replace
  • Fast first page – from as low as six seconds, ideal for one page documents
  • Low energy consumption as it’s inkjet not laser technology
  • No throwaway ink or laser toner cartridges

The first new EcoTank model is the ET-1110 single function colour printer, ideal for busy homes looking to cut their printing costs. As with all EcoTank printers, thanks to the integrated high-capacity ink tanks, ink is supplied continuously to the printer, so there are no cartridges to replace; you simply top up the tanks with Epson ink bottles and keep on printing.

Expression ET-1110

The ET-1110 includes enough ink to print up to 3,600 pages in black and white and 6,500 in colour, the equivalent to about 139 individual cartridges. It also features Epson’s exclusive auto-stop ink bottles which are uniquely keyed for the easy filling of each colour, Epson’s famously comprehensive warranty and a 100-sheet paper capacity all in a very compact form factor.

Then come five new mono (or black and white-only) EcoTank models – the ET-M1170 single function, ET-M1180 single function, ET-M2170 multi-function, ET-M3170 multi-function and ET-M3180 multi-function.

  • 2 years of ink so you can print up to 5,000 pages in black and white included
  • Extremely low cost per page of less than a half a cent per page
  • Low-cost replacement ink bottle from $24.99
  • Easily refillable ink tank
  • Fast first page out time of only 6 seconds

  • Auto 2-sided printing
  • 250 sheet paper tray
  • Compact size
  • Easy wireless printing from iPad®, iPhone®, Android™ tablets and smartphones® including Wi-Fi Direct®
