ET-2700/3700/3750/4750 ink tank inkjet printers
This A4 multifunction inkjet printer features large ink tanks, and boasts high productivity and cost efficiency, according to the OEM. The printer has a tank that does not stain when refilled, making the printer easier to use. The tank is in the front, which improves accessibility and makes it easier for users to check the ink level. Simply insert the ink bottle, and the mechanism automatically refills the tank to its full capacity. The tank juts out from the printer, showing its impressive capacity, and the simple, round shape of the casing expresses a robust durability that fits perfectly into any living space.
