And, instead of using small ink cartridges that can only print a few hundred pages at a time, the Ecotank printers have large built-in ink tanks that can hold enough ink to print several thousand pages.

The Ecotank printers genuinely turn the traditional printer business on its head, with a higher initial purchase price for the printer itself but much lower costs for ink supplies. We weren't entirely convinced by HP's ‘instant ink' subscription service, but Epson's new Ecotank printers take a much more radical approach. That's starting to change, though, with both HP and Epson recently launching new printers that adopt different pricing models. Inkjet printers are traditionally sold at very low prices, and the manufacturers then make most of their profit by charging really high prices for the replacement ink cartridges.
