Epson Ecotank ET-8550 Printer
Replaced my 8 cartridge ink printer with the Epson ET-8550. Print results are exceptional, it is so easy to fill the ink tanks, scanner works great and easy to use. Printed many test prints on Epson and other brands of Inkjet Photo Paper with great results. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a multi-task Printer - scanner. I would also thank AVmart and Davin for the excellent service provided when filling & delivering my order.
