Epson EcoTank ET-18100 photo printer Inkjet 5760 x 1440 DPI Wi-Fi

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

At £587 ex-VAT for an EcoTank photo inkjet, the ET-18100 sits in a “serious colour output” niche rather than a casual office purchase. If you’ll actually use it for photos/graphics and you print often enough to justify refilling, Epson’s tank system is the big upside: you’re not getting slugged every time ink runs low, and daily colour costs tend to behave much better than cartridge printers. That makes it a good fit for small studios, marketing teams, design houses, or anyone producing regular runs of colour documents, proof prints, and occasional photo work where quality matters.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it if your use is mostly general text, low-volume, or “print occasionally when someone remembers”—you’ll pay a premium for the capability and it won’t feel like great value. Also, the photo part is the differentiator: if you don’t need the output quality, you can usually find cheaper ways to get reliable inkjet or even laser-style office prints. Bottom line: buy it if colour/photo output is genuinely part of your workflow and you print often; otherwise, it’s probably more machine than you need.
