Building off the success and versatility of their predecessors, the Epson ET-8500 and ET-8550 EcoTank Printers offers a range of upgrades that elevate this printer, providing higher-quality prints, a more intuitive operation system, even more creative media options, and a smaller overall footprint. A notable difference is the redesign of the ink dispersion system which has resulted in the removal of light cyan and light magenta inks and replaced with Pigment Black and Photo Grey inks. This advanced system provides a higher level of print accuracy with more accurate colours. The ET-8500 and ET-8550 printers are designed for creative enthusiasts who are looking for a range of premium features and media print types as well as having the luxury of being able to have a low-cost, high-yield everyday document printer.
