The EcoTank ET-3850 prints at a leisurely pace — the payoff is in ink savings

10 pages per minute in black, 5 in color. The EcoTank ET-3850 is not fast — but fast isn’t the point. These printers trade speed for absurdly low running costs thanks to their refillable ink tanks. If you print a lot and don’t need pages instantly, the trade-off makes sense. If you need speed, look at a laser.
