Epson EcoTank 4700 Review 

Epson ecotank 4700 is good printer for small home offices. Epson ecotank et-4700  is small & compact in size  which is able to yield a large number of black and color pages due to its ecotank system. Epson ecotank 4700 has an adequate design with easy to access ink tanks to perform large format sublimation printing as well. Epson ecotank 4700 is quite similar to et 2720 but it is a little taller due to its automatic document feeder. Epson ecotank 4700 has a mediocre color accuracy that is good for simple color documents but not that ideal for professionals. Epson ecotank et-4700 has decent printing quality with clear colors.  

Final Verdict

Epson Ecotank 4700 supports voice activated printing via Amazon Alexa like most of other epson, HP and Canon printers. Epson ecotank et-4700 is a sensible alternative for printing and copying many pages each month for your home and office business. Epson ecotank 4700 like other printers from its class gets its ink from EcoTank Ink Bottles instead of cartridges that save you 80% on ink costs.

Moreover, Epson Ecotank Et-4700 is exclusively unique & ecofriendly that costs much less as compared to its competing sublimation printers in the market.
