Working & Design:

The new Epson L6190 integrated InkTank printer has been re-designed into a compact size with the Ink Tank integrated into the printer, offering the smallest footprint amongst all brands of Ink Tank printers. Its easy-to-use spill-free ink bottles offer users ease and convenience when refilling the ink bottles. The ink bottles are designed to prevent re-filling errors with each ink bottle nozzle uniquely customized to fit its matching color tank. Its setup is easy and comes with a 2.4” colour LCD panel for PC-less operation.

It comes with an auto-duplex print function which affords users up to 50% savings on paper cost, reducing running costs even further. Epson is one of the very few brands offering Ink Tank printers with auto-duplex function in the market.

It comes with Precision Core print heads for high performance, achieving high ISO print speeds of up to 15ipm for standard black and white printing and 33ppm for draft printing, for improved business efficiency. Delivering a maximum print resolution of 4800 x 1200 dpi, Epson’s Precision Core print heads are composed of Micro Thin Film Piezo print chips for precise multi-size droplet control capabilities, ensuring the greatest details and extremely smooth gradations in documents or photographs.

The L6190 prints black and white documents with razor-sharp text that are water and smudge-resistant. A user can also print lab-quality glossy photos on photo media paper.

The L6190 Broadcast Fax and PC-fax functions allow you to send a fax digitally with your computer, complete with a 100-page storage memory that ensures your incoming faxes will be received if the printer is out of paper or ink.
