Epson Printer M1170

Description

The Epson EcoTank M1170 is a monochrome inkjet printer designed for businesses and home offices that require high-volume black-and-white printing. It is part of Epson’s EcoTank line, which uses a refillable ink tank system instead of traditional ink cartridges.

Key Features and Specifications:

• Printer Type: Single-function monochrome (black and white) inkjet.
• Ink System: Cartridge-free design with an integrated, high-capacity ink tank. It is filled with pigment-based ink bottles that offer a very low cost per print.
• Printing Speed: It can print up to 20 pages per minute (ppm) according to ISO standards, with a faster draft mode speed of up to 39 ppm. The first page can be printed in as little as 6 seconds.
• Automatic Duplex (2-sided) Printing: A key advantage of this model is its ability to automatically print on both sides of a page, which helps save on paper. The duplex printing speed is rated at up to 9 ipm.
• Connectivity: It offers a wide range of connectivity options, including USB, Ethernet (for network connection), Wi-Fi, and Wi-Fi Direct. This allows for flexible printing from a computer, laptop, or mobile devices like smartphones and tablets.
• Paper Handling: The printer comes with a 250-sheet front paper tray and a rear specialty media feed for different paper types and sizes.
• Page Yield: The included ink bottles provide a very high page yield. Depending on the region and package, this can be up to 6,000 pages or even as high as 11,000 pages. This is one of the printer’s most significant selling points, as it drastically reduces the frequency of refills and the overall cost of ownership.
• Technology: It uses Epson’s PrecisionCore printhead technology for sharp text and graphics. It is also designed to be energy-efficient.

The Epson EcoTank M1170 is a good fit for users who need a fast, reliable, and cost-effective printer for black-and-white documents, especially those who value features like automatic duplexing and wireless connectivity.
