Nowadays, more and more tech companies come up with brand-new ingenious “everyday-use” gadgets that come packed with several smart features, including super-convenient capabilities like wireless connectivity options and Voice-enabled controls. Thanks to that, we ultimately get highly capable devices that are smarter than ever. Not only does that include more complex things like Smart Home gadgets and Home Security Cameras Systems, but also simpler things like Smart Printers. As such, you might be looking to replace your potentially outdated and maybe even obsolete home printer and/or office printer. If that’s the case, consider taking a look at the brand-new Epson EcoTank ET-2760.
The Epson EcoTank ET-2760 is an All-in-One Supertank Printer that can be easily controlled either wirelessly (via the its proprietary Smarphone App – discussed at the end of the article) or via easy-to-use Voice Controls, while also offering Cartridge-Free Printing thanks to its easy-to-fill supersized ink tanks, which ultimately allow you to save up to 90 percent of your printing costs by using it with its proprietary low-cost replacement ink bottles.
Furthermore, this highly capable smart printer allows empowers its users with its automatic 2-sided printing and its high-quality 1.44″ color display.

Contrarily to that, the printer measures exactly 14.8 inches long by 22.0 inches long by 10.5 inches tall when having both its printing tray and scanner’s protection lid completely opened.
The printer also features a substantial, yet compact and sleek design and the entire unit weighs exactly 13.2 lbs.
The Epson EcoTank ET-2760 basically works as a 3-in-1 device, allowing its users to not only print, but also copy and/or scan just about anything that fits into the printer’s scanning area.
As mentioned at the beginning of the article, this all-in-one printer also offers its users Cartridge-Free Printing thanks to its easy-to-fill supersized ink tanks, which work together with Epson’s proprietary EcoTank Ink Bottles.
As mentioned earlier, these exclusive uniquely keyed and low-cost replaceable EcoTank EcoFit Ink Bottles not only make it easy for you to fill each of the printer’s different color tanks in a hassle free manner, but also ensure that you always have much less ink wastage when printing all of documents, which ultimately allows users to save up to 90 percent of their printing costs.
Basically, one set of replacement ink bottles is equivalent to about 80 individual cartridges, which can be translated to costing you about as little as 1 cent per color ISO page versus around 20 cents when using individual ink cartridges.
Furthermore, the Epson EcoTank ET-2760 Printer’s proprietary EcoTank EcoFit Ink Bottles also allow you to get up to 2 years of ink with each replacement ink set that you get.
Each replacement ink bottle set brings users an outstanding cutting-edge value and convenience usage, as each set includes enough ink to print up to 7,500 pages (when using black ink) or 6,000 pages (when using color ink), which, once again, is equivalent to more or less 80 individual cartridges. Not only does that mean that you have less waste when printing, but you’ll also have to do fewer trips to the store.
Within your package, the printer already comes with one replacement ink set included that consists of a total of four of its EcoTank EcoFit Ink Bottles. Each of these bottles features a Minimum Ink Droplet Size of exactly 3 droplet sizes, which means that it can be as small as just 3 picoliters.

This feature ultimately allows users to get more documentation done with much less time.
