Epson WorkForce EcoTank ET-4500 Review - Nerd Techy

Printing can be expensive. Printers themselves aren’t a basic product that all offer the same benefits, as there is efficiency and a lot of other features that come into account. A lot of times you don’t get what you’re expecting. Even the ink can get out of hand. It’s expensive to replace ink cartridges every month just to print 150 pages, and many printers available do nothing to help. But this doesn’t have to be the case for you.

The Epson EcoTank ET-4500 is designed to keep running costs very low. It does this well, but its price suggests a better spec.

Stupendously low running costs can’t be sniffed at, but it’s still too expensive and overall performance is poor
