At Elvatech, we understand that in today’s economic climate, businesses and home users alike are looking for value — not just in purchase cost, but in long-term performance and operational expenses.
That’s why the Epson EcoTank L5290 is one of the most recommended printers in our lineup. It offers print, scan, copy, and fax capabilities, robust wireless connectivity, and the standout EcoTank system — a revolutionary cartridge-free solution that drastically reduces your cost per print.
The L5290 is built with the everyday user in mind: fast, efficient, and eco-friendly — without compromising print quality or functionality.
Top Features of the Epson EcoTank L5290
Let’s break down what makes the L5290 one of the most reliable and cost-effective printers in Kenya:
1. Cartridge-Free Printing with EcoTank Technology
Forget about expensive cartridges and constant replacements. The L5290 comes with integrated ink tanks that you refill using low-cost ink bottles. One set of Epson ink bottles can yield up to 4,500 black pages and 7,500 color pages — that’s several months (if not years) of worry-free printing.
This makes it perfect for users who print often — schools, offices, online sellers, or parents managing schoolwork at home.
2. Wireless Printing Made Simple
Thanks to built-in Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, and Ethernet, you can print from your smartphone, laptop, or tablet — even if you’re not near the printer. Epson’s Smart Panel App makes setup and mobile operation extremely simple.
Whether you’re printing class assignments, office reports, or boarding passes, you can do it from the comfort of your couch.
3. All-in-One Functionality
With the Epson L5290, you’re getting more than just a printer:
-
Print: Vibrant color and sharp monochrome output
-
Copy: Quick, clear duplications of documents
-
Scan: High-resolution flatbed scanning
-
Fax: With 100-page memory and broadcast function
It’s a true workhorse in a small body, and ideal for multitasking workspaces or remote setups.
4. High-Quality Prints
Even at fast print speeds, the L5290 delivers up to 5760 x 1440 dpi print resolution, ensuring every graphic, photo, and text document looks polished and professional. Whether you’re printing colorful marketing flyers or crisp invoices, this printer has your back.
5. Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)
Multitasking becomes seamless with the 30-page ADF. Easily copy or scan multiple pages in one go without feeding them manually. This feature is invaluable for office use where speed and efficiency matter.
6. Smart Control with the Epson Smart Panel App
Epson’s Smart Panel App is intuitive and allows full control of your printer from your phone. From ink monitoring to scanning documents directly into your mobile device, the app brings professional print management to your fingertips.
7. Cost-Saving Ink Refills
Each ink bottle is individually keyed to prevent wrong-color refills. This makes the refill process spill-free, fool-proof, and beginner-friendly. No need to pay for expensive cartridges every few months.
8. Sleek, Compact Design
With its compact footprint, the L5290 fits easily on a desk or corner shelf. Despite its small size, it packs a full suite of functionality — making it a favorite for both space-constrained home offices and busy workspaces.
