"Epson's EcoTank ET-4956 is an inkjet multifunction peripheral (MFP) aimed at busy home workers and micro offices. It's a refillable device, meaning that instead of messing about with short-lived cartridges, it uses bottled ink that should last for several thousand pages. That's one less hassle in your own office, and a lot less if you're rolling out a fleet of printers to home workers. We're testing the ET-4956, which is white, but the ET-4950 is essentially an identical black version."
"This is a compact and fairly attractive device, helped by its comparatively uncluttered control panel. Here you'll find a 2.4" (6.1cm) color touchscreen that looks after most of the day-to-day functionality. It's also where you'll encounter just about the only missing feature: this MFP has no USB host port, which limits what you can do without a computer."
"Regardless, the ET-4956 has just about everything else covered. In its base, there's an enclosed 250-sheet paper cassette, while on top, it has a 30-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF). Both this and the printer itself support duplex (double-sided) operation, so you can use them together to make double-sided copies of double-sided originals, or just for duplex prints, scans or faxes. The only thing missing here is a second paper tray, but it's not a major misstep."
Epson's EcoTank ET-4956 is an inkjet multifunction peripheral designed for busy home workers and micro offices. It uses refillable bottled ink that should last several thousand pages, reducing cartridge hassle and fleet maintenance. The device is compact with a comparatively uncluttered control panel and a 2.4" (6.1cm) color touchscreen for daily functions. It lacks a USB host port and wired Ethernet, relying on dual-band Wi-Fi for print-from and scan-to-cloud options. The printer includes a 250-sheet enclosed cassette and a 30-sheet automatic document feeder. Both scanner and printer support duplex operation. A second paper tray is absent.
