A Practical A4 Office Multifunction Printer with High-Capacity Ink
The Epson EcoTank L6490 is designed for offices that need more than basic printing. It combines printing, scanning, copying and faxing in one A4 multifunction device, while its refillable EcoTank ink system is designed around high-capacity ink bottles rather than traditional replaceable cartridges.
For businesses handling regular document workloads, the L6490 brings together automatic duplex printing, a 250-sheet paper tray, an automatic document feeder, network connectivity and mobile printing features in a single desktop office printer.
Built for Everyday Business Workflows
The L6490 is particularly suited to environments where several document functions are required from one machine.
Instead of using separate devices for printing, scanning, copying and faxing, the multifunction design allows these activities to be handled from one central unit.
Its A4 format makes it suitable for everyday business documents such as:
- Reports
- Invoices
- Quotations
- Forms
- Letters
- Internal documents
- Customer paperwork
- Business correspondence
High-Capacity EcoTank Printing
One of the defining characteristics of the L6490 is its refillable ink tank design.
The printer uses Epson pigment ink and a four-colour configuration consisting of black, cyan, magenta and yellow.
The supplied ink configuration is rated by Epson for up to approximately 13,300 black pages and 5,200 colour pages, subject to Epson's stated testing methodology and real-world printing conditions.
This makes the high-capacity tank system particularly relevant for users who print regularly and want to reduce the frequency of ink refilling.
Automatic Double-Sided Printing
The L6490 supports automatic duplex printing, allowing compatible documents to be printed on both sides of the paper without manually turning each sheet.
For offices producing multi-page documents, this can make document handling more convenient and help reduce paper usage when double-sided documents are appropriate.
Multiple Ways to Connect
The L6490 can fit into different office environments through several connectivity options.
It supports:
- Wi-Fi
- Wi-Fi Direct
- Ethernet
- USB
- Mobile printing
- Apple AirPrint
The combination of Ethernet and wireless connectivity makes the printer suitable for both traditional wired office networks and wireless working environments.
Automatic Document Feeder for Multi-Page Documents
The L6490 includes an automatic document feeder, with Epson Europe specifying a capacity of 35 sheets.
This is useful when scanning or copying multiple pages because documents can be processed through the feeder rather than requiring every page to be positioned manually on the scanner glass.
Scanner, Copier and Fax in One Device
The L6490 is more than a printer.
Its multifunction design combines:
Print + Scan + Copy + Fax
The scanner uses CIS technology with an optical resolution of up to 1200 × 2400 dpi, while the fax system supports transmission speeds up to 33.6 kbps and includes features such as automatic redial and speed-dial storage.
