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

Review courtesy of Techmoran

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

Build with an integrated ink system, the printer is ideal for home offices and small offices like ours, but small to us is 20 people, each printing at least one document a day.

With Micro Piezo printhead technology, desktop printer comes with an ADF, a two-line LCD screen, Ethernet connectivity and two extra bottles of black ink. One can print from their desks on a LAN or internet network. It’s easy to refill the ink tank with their clear labelling and drip-free nozzle. With Epson iPrint one can print wirelessly from smartphones and tablet PCs within the office while its new multi-copy function also allows you to copy one page up to 99 times in a single go, making it ideal for creating documents quickly for meetings.

The L550 offers a low-cost per page for both black and colour printing, with each set of high-volume ink bottles capable of printing up to 4,000 pages in black and 6,500 pages in colour.
The L550 has a 12 percent smaller footprint than previous models, and easily complements any work environment.
