Inside: Epson L550 A 4-In-1 Printer With Fax & ADF Capability

L550_550x310

We have used the Epson L550 Printer, a 4-in-1 for printing, scanning, copying and at times faxing, an we loved it.

The printer comes with an integrated ink system and though we were using it at work, an office of around 20 people printing over 3 documents everyday; the printer can nevertheless be used at home, in an education institution and even in a home office.

The printer comes with Epson iPrint which alows one to print wirelessly even from their smartphones and tablets as long as they are in the office. Because it uses internet, with its Ethernet capability, it is the best printer even for several departments in the same office, allowing to be shared by anyone on the LAN or office network.

For bulcky copies, the printer’s multi-copy function, the printer comes with a capability to allow one to copy one page up to 100 pages once, a feature good for institutions with many students, it is also time saving especially during examination periods or meetings or even church services.

I liked the printers Micro Piezo printhead technology and its ADF capability-automatic document feeder, a two-line LCD screen to show the status of your print of fax job.

For a girl, it is so easy to refill the ink tanks, which are also clearly labelled and come with a drip-free nozzle. For cost, the Epson L550 printer promises low-cost per page for both black and colour printing. It’s high-volume ink bottles can print up to 4,000 black pages and 6,500 colour pages.

The printer is 12% smaller than previous models, saves costs for an SME as it can print, scan, copy and fax and such offices need not to buy independent machines.

The On-demand ink jet allows 180 nozzles Black, 59 nozzles each colour with its bi-directional printing or uni-directional printing.
