Epson EcoTank L6360 all-in-one printer, colour inkjet, A4, Wi-Fi

The L6360 prints with four inks: black, cyan, yellow and magenta. This is the classic CMYK scheme, which reproduces the full range of colour from text documents to charts, presentations and photos. A separate black ink tank means text comes out deep black and does not depend on how much colour ink is left.

In the EcoTank series ink is poured from bottles into tanks built into the printer, so there are no cartridges to replace. At home and in the office that means fewer unexpected stops in the middle of a print job. Which ink bottles this model takes and how many pages a single fill yields is not stated in the manufacturer data here.

The printer supports two-sided printing, so longer documents, essays and booklets use half the paper. The maximum print size is A4, the standard paper size at home and in the office: letters, invoices, school assignments and printed tickets all fit without any trouble.

Thanks to Wi-Fi, the printer can go wherever there is room for it rather than next to a computer. Every device on the home or office network can print to it. Scanning is in colour, so documents, photos and children's drawings can be digitised with their colours intact, then saved or shared.

Families who print school work, documents and pictures and are tired of changing cartridges; remote workers who need colour printing and scanning in one device; small offices that share a printer over the wireless network; and anyone who has no use for a fax but cares about two-sided printing.
