  • Our take on the Epson EcoTank ET-8500

    The EcoTank ET-8500 is a six-color inkjet all-in-one aimed at homes that print a lot of photos and documents. It uses refillable ink tanks instead of cartridges, so running costs are low over time, and it prints at up to 5760 x 1440 dpi on glossy paper. It scans and copies on a flatbed but has no automatic document feeder, so multi-page copying is manual. Against cartridge all-in-ones it trades a higher upfront outlay for cheap refills and strong photo output; against Epson's own ET-8550 it is the smaller, simpler sibling.
