Best Ink Tank Printers of 2025

"I love not having to use outrageously priced cartridges. It's very convenient for me because I don't have this out all the time. When I need it, I pull it out and plug it in. It always reconnects to my wifi and with the app, I can scan documents and save files right to my phone, which makes it easy to send attachments via email, text, etc. Good price and has all the functions I need. I would recommend this printer for basic home use."

"The HP Smart Tank 5000 has some great features. The ink tank system is cost-effective and lasts a long time, making it ideal for frequent printing. The print quality is solid for both documents and photos, and the wireless capabilities are a convenient addition. However, I've experienced some issues when printing long documents, as it occasionally lags or struggles to keep up. Overall, it's a good budget-friendly option for light to moderate use."

"I was pleasantly surprised that I did not find the setup difficult at all. Extremely pleased with this product! I do a lot of shipping label printing, and this printer is perfect for me. It is worth the value just in the cost of ink. I've had it for a few weeks and I'm really happy with the printing speed and accuracy. Highly recommend it!"

"After extensive research, I chose the Epson EcoTank printer for my home office and have been impressed so far. It's lightweight and compact, taking up less space than my previous printer. Setting it up was a breeze, and filling the ink tank was surprisingly satisfying. I've printed both documents and photos, and the quality is excellent!"

"I switched from my old Epson Artisan 837 to the ET-2800, and I'm pleased with its smaller footprint and feather-light design. The installation was straightforward, and it works seamlessly with my Mac. The ink-loading process is clean and easy, and I appreciate the longer ink life compared to cartridges!"

"I had tried so many printers before, but this one has been amazing! The ink lasts a long time, and it's relatively cheap since I only pay for the colors I use. It's super easy to set up, and the wireless functionality works great. This printer is not loud at all, making it a perfect fit for my home!"

"I've owned a dozen printers over 20 years, and the Epson ET-4800 is a pleasant surprise. Affordable price and ink tank technology work great for me. After two months and 400 pages, the ink levels are still high. Setup was quick, under 30 minutes, and while the color quality is decent, the black and white printing is fast enough for my needs. The small display screen isn’t a problem for me, but it does make a bit of noise while printing, which is my only concern."

"After using HP printers for years, I decided to switch to an Epson for better quality. I needed double-sided printing, but I learned that it doesn't have automatic duplexing. It's something I wish was more straightforward. The print quality disappointed me, especially for labels. They turned out dull and lacking vibrancy, which was frustrating, considering the product claims impressive results. I'm returning this printer and looking into a Brother printer instead."

"I bought this printer to replace my HP inkjet, drawn by the mega tank feature to avoid constant cartridge replacements. While I appreciate the mega tank, I was disappointed by the lack of duplex printing and the ability to scan to email or USB. I feel these features should be standard by now."

"I bought this printer to reduce my ink costs compared to a laser printer. The print quality is outstanding, nearly indistinguishable from laser prints! Setting up the ink was a breeze, and now I’m making beautiful custom cards for various occasions. My husband was skeptical, but after seeing the low ink consumption and vibrant prints, he’s now a fan too!"

"This printer was exactly what I was looking for. I love the wireless capability, allowing me to print seamlessly from my laptop, iPad, and phone. No ink smudging and the new cartridges last a long time, which is fantastic for my casual printing needs!"

"I’m frustrated with how HP manages its printer software. The Wi-Fi feature is unreliable, often needing manual resets. I ended up using a USB cable, which feels outdated. The printer works well when connected, but the software issues really detract from the experience."

"Setting up this printer was a breeze for me. Connecting to Wi-Fi was straightforward and I’m really pleased with the print quality."

"I absolutely adore this printer! The colors in my photos are vibrant, and it even recognizes different paper sizes! Plus, I love that it comes with 2 years of ink!"

"After a couple of years, I’ve decided I won’t buy an HP printer again. Wireless printing is frustrating, and despite all troubleshooting, the print quality remains patchy."

"I've been using this Epson EcoTank printer for a few days now, and it's been fantastic! The wireless setup was quick and easy, and the print quality is very sharp. The ink-tank system is a game changer – filling it was super easy. I prefer the small screen over touch screens as it’s more user-friendly. If you're tired of replacing cartridges, this is a great choice."

"After switching from an HP Tango, I am super happy with this home printer. The setup was easy, and the quality of prints is great. I love the ink refill process which saves money on paper and ink. This all-in-one printer is energy efficient, and I would highly recommend it!"

"I operate a small home office and print about 300 pages per month. I decided to go with the ET 2850 for its dual-sided printing and cost-effective ink supply. So far, it has exceeded my expectations! The setup was easy, and the print quality is better than my previous printers. I highly recommend this Epson product!"

“I found the setup process to be super quick, especially with the HP app. It took me less than 5 minutes to get everything ready, including adding ink and aligning print heads.”

“When I printed my flower photo, the colors were bright and vibrant. I was impressed with the sharp details—it looked just like my original photo!”

“I really appreciate the large ink tanks. They’re huge! I can see how they’ll last me a couple of years without needing a refill.”

"I found this printer to be amazing for the value! Setting it up was a breeze, and it connected to my WiFi effortlessly. The picture quality is gorgeous, and I've faced no issues at all!"

"After setting up the ET-2400, I was impressed with how quickly it prints from both Android and Windows. I did need to download drivers for some systems, but the quality has been good overall. Just a tip: you definitely need a cell phone for setup!"

"I bought this printer to print curriculum for my four homeschool students. It was a snap to set up and connect to my phone, iPad, and computer. I printed some of my daughter's art, and it came out very crisp and clear!"

"This is my favorite printer yet! I've tried so many, but the huge ink refill bottles are a game changer. I no longer need to buy those small cartridges, which I always found frustrating. Print quality is high and it’s easy to set up. Plus, it can copy and scan. I love it so much that I bought a second one for my other office! Just a heads up, it seems louder than my previous HP and Canon models, but for me, the advantages outweigh that."

"As a long-time HP customer for over 20 years, I've grown quite disillusioned with their products. I decided to give this Epson printer a try, and I’m so pleased. Initially, I was worried about its lighter build, but after using it for a month, I genuinely like it. The ink situation is significantly better than what I dealt with at HP. Ink lasts longer and is cheaper! The print quality for photographs is excellent when using quality paper. The app interface is incredibly user-friendly compared to HP’s, which always gave me trouble. Overall, the price is great and the quality is top-notch."

"After using two Canon Pixma printers, I needed a Chrome-compatible printer. I was pleasantly surprised by the smaller footprint of this one. It works wonderfully! My daughter was able to easily load the drivers on her Apple laptop and print her dissertation without any issues. The ink levels barely moved! The only downside is that the screen is not easy to read, and it’s hard to tell which buttons to press. But overall, I’m very pleased and excited to keep using this printer."

"After years with Canon, I switched to Epson but returned to Canon for the MegaTank system. This printer is compact and efficient with ink. Replacement bottles are affordable, and the text prints quickly with accurate colors. However, the LCD screen is small and doesn't light up, making it less useful. The operating panel must be open to print, which can be annoying at times. Overall, I highly recommend this AIO printer for its performance and ink savings."

"As a landman, I travel a lot and need a printer that's efficient. I chose this Canon for its size and print speed. It paid for itself in just three months. While it's slightly bulky, I've had no issues leaving it in my camper. Once, I found the color clogged after not using it for a while, but I managed to clean the print head easily. It's a solid machine that withstands some rough treatment, and I’m considering getting a backup just in case."
