Epson EcoTank L4260 A4 Duplex All-in-One Ink Tank Printer
Epson EcoTank L4260 is a cost-effective A4 all-in-one ink tank printer built for home and small office use, featuring high-capacity front-facing tanks paired with spill-resistant key‑lock bottles that deliver up to 14,000 mono or 5,200 colour pages—cutting ink costs by up to 90% relative to cartridges. Its heat-free Micro Piezo™ print head lays down crisp 5760 × 1440 dpi output at up to 33 ppm in black or 15 ppm in colour, with automatic duplexing and borderless capabilities for enhanced productivity. You also get flatbed scanning up to 1200 × 2400 dpi, Wi‑Fi/Wi‑Fi Direct, USB connectivity, and support for Epson Connect, AirPrint, and Google Cloud Print—controllable via a Smart Panel app on a 1.44″ LCD.
Designed with efficiency in mind, it uses just ~12 W during operation and under 1 W in sleep, weighs 6 kg, and fits compactly (375 × 347 × 187 mm). Backed by a 1-year warranty, it balances high-volume print capability with reliability and low running cost. Some users praise its ink economy, though a few report occasional clogging or colour inconsistencies—”thick, almost difficult to read text” or “photos…come out with a blue tint”—when using non-genuine media, and note that printhead maintenance may be necessary after periods of inactivity.
