Epson EcoTank ET-2850 Wireless Color All-in-One Cartridge-Free Supertank Printer – Scan, Copy, Auto 2-Sided Printing

The Epson EcoTank ET-2850 is a wireless color all-in-one supertank printer for home users who want automatic two-sided printing and low ink costs. It prints, scans, and copies, uses refillable Epson 502 ink bottles, and connects over Wi-Fi to computers and phones.

Deep-Dive Story & Problem/Solution

Two-Sided Printing Should Not Mean Flipping Pages by Hand

Manual duplex is easy to get wrong. Pages go back in upside down, the order gets mixed, and the job is reprinted. Many home users give up and print single-sided, doubling paper use.

The ET-2850 adds an automatic duplexer to the entry EcoTank design. It prints both sides without intervention, at 10.5 ppm in black and 5 ppm in color for single-sided pages.

Epson 502 ink bottles feed four refillable tanks, with a 127 mL black bottle and 70 mL color bottles included.

Automatic Duplex With Supertank Savings

Print resolution reaches 4800 x 1200 dpi. A 100-sheet tray handles everyday jobs, and borderless photo printing is supported.

Simple Home All-in-One

The flatbed scanner offers 1200 x 2400 dpi hardware resolution. Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, AirPrint, and Mopria cover mobile printing.
