  • Our take on the Epson EcoTank ET-M3170

    The Epson EcoTank ET-M3170 is a monochrome inkjet all-in-one for small offices that print a lot of black-and-white pages. It combines print, copy, scan and fax with automatic duplex printing, a 250-sheet tray and a 35-page automatic document feeder. Its refillable ink tanks and high-yield bottle system keep running costs low compared with cartridge laser printers, and it prints up to 39 ppm. Reviewers like the low cost per page and the wired and wireless connectivity, but some find the inkjet output less crisp than a laser and the unit bulky.

    Questions and answers

    Is the ET-M3170 worth it over a mono laser?
    If you print a lot of black-and-white pages, the refillable tanks make it cheaper to run than most cartridge lasers. A laser still wins on text sharpness and often on noise.
    Does it print in color?
    No. It is a monochrome printer only, so it suits documents, not photos or color marketing material.
    Can it print double-sided automatically?
    Yes. Automatic duplex is built in, which halves paper use for long documents.
    What can the document feeder do?
    The ADF holds up to 35 pages for copying, scanning and faxing without feeding sheets one at a time.
    How does it connect?
    It has Wi-Fi, Ethernet and USB, so it works on a wired office network or wirelessly from phones and computers.
    Does it scan and fax as well as print?
    Yes. It is a four-in-one with a flatbed scanner, copier and fax, and scans at up to 1200 x 2400 dpi.

    At Office Depot, for $419.99, as of our latest check.
