Key Advantages

The printer's main advantage lies in its EcoTank system, which uses high-capacity refillable ink tanks, significantly lowering running costs compared to traditional cartridge printers. It provides sharp, vibrant print quality suitable for documents and photos. Wireless connectivity simplifies printing from multiple devices and mobile platforms. The device's compact design fits well in tight office spaces while maintaining good print speeds. Its ability to print borderless documents enhances visual presentation of prints. Additionally, Epson's DURABrite Ultra pigment inks provide smudge and water-resistant prints ensuring longevity.

Limitations

Despite strong performance, the EcoTank ET-2980 White's initial purchase price is higher due to the EcoTank system. It lacks advanced features such as automatic duplex (double-sided) printing, which may affect productivity for high-volume print tasks. The printer does not include a built-in scanner or copier, limiting multifunction capability. Print speeds might be slower compared to laser printers, especially for large text documents. Color accuracy for professional photo printing is adequate but may not meet expert photography standards. Firmware updates and software support might be limited over time.
