Epson L655A printer that comes with two years' worth of ink Print speed: 33ppm | Paper sizes: A4, A5, A6, B5, Envelopes (C4, C6, DL, No.
10), 9 x 13cm, 10 x 15cm, 13 x 18cm, 13 x 20cm, 20 x 25cm, 10 x 14.8cm | Paper capacity: 150 sheets | Dimensions: 515 x 360 x 241mm (Width x Depth x Height) | Weight: 7.4kgMoney saving EcoTank ink systemThree-year warrantyNot the fastest printerSmall paper trayConsumables are usually expensive when it comes to printers.
So it is quite surprising that one vendor, Epson, single-handedly decided to challenge that status quo by allowing users to refill their printer using ink bottles.
What's even more surprising is that Epson includes two years of ink with the package; no more expensive cartridges and instead, you have enough material to deliver 11,000 pages worth of black and colour inks (that's 700ml worth of liquid).
Oh and there's even a three-year warranty making this a great choice for bean counters fixing the TCO of their printers.
The L655 lacks the features found on cheaper competitors it is relatively slower (although it has a higher printing resolution) and has a small paper input tray.5.
