Epson Ecotank ET-4850 4 Colour Multifunction Printer $539 Delivered + Surcharge @ Centre Com

110

I watched it for a while as it is the most budget auto 2-sided printer and can refuel the ink. It dropped only a little from usual (569->539) but I can't find lower anywhere (except the price error they made).

Free shipping. Free shipping excludes WA, NT & remote areas.
Surcharges: 1.2% Card & PayPal, 2% AmEx.

    You need to get them when the larger ebay retailers are part of the 20/22% off sales.

    • Haven't seen ET-4850 get any discounted on ebay before, but thanks for advice!

      • I got the 5150 22% off from good guys ebay store earlier in the year.

    Any reason you'd get this over a laser?

    • +1

      laser gives off bad air particulates that can make people sick (Asthma etc) so not very good for home use if you got little kids.

      • I think even the most die-hard health people advise you consider not sitting in close proximity to heavily used printers if you're asthmatic (or maybe heart conditions for some reason?)

      • If it's used infrequently, does it pose a health risk? I just bought a laser printer for my home office and now I'm worried. But I probably print once every 2 days

    • Lasers can't print photos.

      Lasers are great until you need new toners and drum, most of the time it's cheaper to get a new printer. MOST come with starter toners only.
      Nothing beats a laser for text and presentations. But for home, inkjets are super flexible and great for ad-hoc photos.

      It’s a good practice to use laser printers in well-ventilated areas or consider using air purifiers with activated carbon filters to reduce any potential exposure. Risk is low.

      Toner Dust Exposure: Laser printers use toner cartridges, which contain fine toner particles. When a laser printer operates, it can release tiny toner particles into the air. Breathing in these particles over an extended period may potentially irritate the respiratory system.

      Chemical Emissions: Laser printers can emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other chemicals during the printing process.

    “it is the most budget auto 2-sided printer”

    Not sure if you need/want the ADF but there are cheaper models in the Epson eco tank line up that have auto duplex printing as well.

  • Just bought one from Harvey Norman. They have this model for $528, plus you can claim $50 for recycling your old printer.
