An interesting multifunction printer is the relatively new ET 2840 from Epson, an inkjet printer with colour tanks, copy function and scanner. Epson has omitted the fax function, which used to be obligatory, and the printer only offers moderate features. There is also no duplex unit, so you can only print double-sided pages using the printer driver...
Anyone looking for a printer for the home quickly realises that the price range is huge. The printers tested by Stiftung Warentest range from under 100 to over 1,000 euros. The differences in quality are just as great: while many good printers tested impress with razor-sharp text or brilliant photo prints, others disappoint with blurred, streaky print images, poor contrast or colour errors...
- High print quality and high speed
- Very high scan resolution
- Paper tray without dust protection
- loud when printing
The features of the EcoTank ET-2840 are rather sparse. This starts with the mini operating display. However, the compact multifunction printer can fit almost anywhere. And it does its core business really well: the Epson prints in high quality and at high speed - and at minimal cost. Its toughest competitor is the ET-2850: just as big, just as good, but 25 euros cheaper.
- Extremely low printing costs
- High print quality
- Very high printing speed
- Display only for menu settings
- Borderless printing only for small photos
