Description
The Epson EcoTank M3170 Mono Ink Tank Printer is a robust, energy-efficient, and cost-effective 4-in-1 multifunction printer designed for high-volume office environments. It combines printing, scanning, copying, and faxing with wireless connectivity, automatic duplexing, and a high-capacity ink tank system, making it a superior alternative to traditional mono laser printers.
PrecisionCore Heat-Free Technology
At the core of the M3170 is Epson’s PrecisionCore Heat-Free Technology, which delivers laser-quality text output without the need for heat during printing. This results in lower power consumption, faster first-page-out times, and longer-lasting components, making it ideal for businesses that prioritize efficiency and sustainability.
Ultra-Low Cost Printing
The EcoTank M3170 is engineered to minimize printing costs. Each high-yield pigment ink bottle can print up to 6,000 pages, and the included starter bottles offer up to 11,000 pages combined. This translates to a cost per page as low as ⅓ of a cent, significantly more economical than mono laser printers.
Wireless Connectivity and Mobile Printing
With Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, and Ethernet support, the M3170 offers seamless connectivity across devices. It supports mobile printing via Epson iPrint, Email Print, Remote Print Driver, Apple AirPrint, and Google Cloud Print, allowing users to print from smartphones, tablets, and cloud services.
Fast and Efficient Performance
The printer boasts a print speed of 20 ISO ppm and up to 39 ppm in draft mode, with a first page out time of just 6 seconds. It supports automatic duplex printing at 9 ppm, helping reduce paper usage and improve workflow efficiency.
ADF and Fax Capabilities
The M3170 includes a 35-sheet Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) for batch scanning and copying, and a built-in fax with up to 100 speed dials, PC fax, and error correction mode. It supports legal-size documents and offers fax preview, broadcast fax, and polling reception.
Compact, Spill-Free Design
The integrated ink tank design ensures a compact footprint, ideal for space-constrained environments. The EcoFit™ bottle system allows for spill-free and error-free refilling, and the 6.1cm color touch panel offers intuitive navigation and control.
Energy Efficient and Eco-Friendly
The M3170 consumes up to 95% less power than comparable laser printers. It is ENERGY STAR® qualified, RoHS compliant, and designed to operate quietly and efficiently, contributing to a greener office environment.
Durability and Warranty
Built for high-volume printing, the M3170 has a recommended monthly duty cycle of 5,000 pages and a maximum monthly volume of 20,000 pages.
