You’re standing in the printer aisle (or scrolling online), comparing two wildly different machines; one promises super-low ink costs with vibrant color prints, and the other promises speed, volume, and rock-solid reliability. Both sound good. But which one is actually better for what you need?

That’s exactly what we’re here to help you answer.

We get asked this question all the time: "Should I go with an Epson EcoTank or a laser printer?" The truth is that it’s not just a simple this-or-that choice. The answer depends entirely on how you plan to use your printer, how much you print, and what you care about most: color quality? long-term costs? speed? maintenance?

It’s also important to note that Epson’s EcoTank lineup isn’t just one printer. They offer Supertank models for home and office use, Photo printers for creative work, Pro models for small businesses, and even Mono versions for black-and-white printing.

It’s safe to say that climate change is no longer a distant problem, but a threat that’s currently breathing down our necks. From disrupted supply chains caused by extreme weather to soaring energy costs and increasingly selective customers, the impact on businesses is undeniable.

In fact, the Natural Marketing Institute found that 58% of U.S. consumers consider a company’s environmental footprint before making a purchase. If a company wants to attract and retain these customers, sustainability needs to be more than just talk and be part of its everyday operations.

Here’s where our expertise comes in. At STPT, we’ve spent decades helping organizations rethink their print environments not only to save money, but also to reduce their environmental impact.
