Epson Eco Tank Monochrome M1170 Wi-Fi Ink Tank Printer

Print Smarter, Not Expensively: The Wireless Printer That Ends Cartridge Anxiety

Imagine a printer that simply prints—no drama, no surprise cartridge costs, no waiting for things to warm up before your document appears. The Epson EcoTank Monochrome M1170 Wi-Fi Ink Tank Printer is exactly that: a lean, purposeful monochrome workhorse that delivers laser-quality black text at stunning speed, powered by refillable ink bottles that cost a fraction of what you’ve been spending. For Kenyan home offices, small businesses, schools, and professionals tired of the endless expense and hassle of toner cartridges, the M1170 is the wireless printing solution that finally puts control—and money—back in your hands.

Why Your Old Printing Method Is Costing You a Small Fortune

Most people print without thinking about what each page actually costs. A laser toner cartridge might set you back thousands of shillings and yield only a few thousand pages—that’s roughly half a shilling per page, sometimes more. The M1170 fundamentally rewrites that equation. With an integrated EcoTank system and affordable pigment ink bottles, each page costs about a tenth of that.

Consider this: the M1170 ships with one black 532 ink bottle (120 mL) capable of printing up to 6,000 pages. Replacement bottles cost far less than laser toner, yet deliver the same massive yield. When you print hundreds of pages a month, the cumulative savings are transformative—not a few hundred shillings, but tens of thousands saved per year that can flow straight to your bottom line.

Your printing budget: dramatically smaller. Your printing volume: essentially unlimited.

• Save up to 75% on cost-per-page compared with laser toner cartridges
• Up to 6,000 pages per replacement ink bottle means weeks or months between refills
• Authentic pigment ink that resists water and smudging—your documents stay pristine
• No mess, no fuss: EcoFit bottle nozzles are uniquely keyed to prevent errors and spills

Laser-Quality Output Without the Laser Price Tag

The M1170 uses Epson’s legendary PrecisionCore printing technology to deliver sharp, crisp black text at a maximum resolution of 1200 x 2400 dpi. Every character emerges with razor-edge clarity—the kind of quality your business partners and clients expect from professional documents. The genuine pigment ink formulation means your prints are water-resistant and smudge-proof, so invoices, contracts, and reports survive handling, scanning, and filing without degradation.

This is not a compromise machine. This is a machine that simply does one thing better and more economically than anything else in its class.

Speed That Respects Your Time

The M1170 prints at up to 20 ipm (ISO) with virtually no warm-up delay—your first page emerges in seconds, not minutes. For anyone running urgent documents, managing a busy office, or powering through a stack of printing during a deadline, that speed transforms frustration into calm productivity. Duplex printing is automatic, so two-sided documents roll off the machine effortlessly, cutting paper use and stack height in half.

Wireless Freedom That Actually Works

Stop walking to the printer to plug in a cable. The M1170 features Wi-Fi Direct connectivity, letting you print from your phone, tablet, or laptop from anywhere in your office—or your home. Wi-Fi Direct means you can connect up to 8 devices directly to the printer without needing a router, perfect for shared spaces or offices where network access isn’t always straightforward. Ethernet and USB are also built in, so you can connect however makes sense for your setup.

Cloud printing, mobile apps, and wireless convenience aren’t nice-to-haves anymore—they’re essentials. The M1170 delivers all of them, stripped of unnecessary complexity.

Built Compact, Built to Last

At just 14.8 x 13.7 x 5.9″, the M1170 is remarkably slim—it tucks onto a shelf, slides into a corner, or fits perfectly on a desk without dominating the space. Yet it holds a professional 250-sheet paper input tray, so you’re reloading far less often during heavy printing runs. A rear specialty-media slot adds flexibility for envelopes, cardstock, and other media without fiddling.

Energy Star certified and built with Epson’s hallmark reliability, this printer sips power compared to laser alternatives while delivering years of dependable service. The 2-year limited warranty (extendable with registration) ensures your investment is protected.

The Clarity You Crave for Every Document Type

Whether you’re printing invoices, contracts, reports, presentations, or correspondence, the M1170’s crisp output speaks for itself. The 1200 x 2400 dpi resolution catches every detail, font antialiasing is smooth and professional, and the pigment-based ink sits on the page with permanence—not the fleeting smudge-prone quality of cheap inkjet alternatives. Your documents look like you care about them, because you do.

The Real Cost of Printing: A Conversation with Your Bottom Line

If your business prints 1,000 pages monthly, you’re looking at roughly 500 shillings in toner costs with a laser printer. With the M1170, that same volume costs you less than 50 shillings. Over a year, that’s 5,400 shillings you keep instead of spending—money that flows back into your business, your team, your growth. Now imagine printing 2,000 or 5,000 pages monthly. The gap widens dramatically.

But beyond the math, there’s the emotional relief of knowing you can print without guilt. Need to print that email chain for your files? Print it. Want a backup copy of an invoice? Print it. Printing three copies for a meeting instead of one? No problem. The M1170 removes the financial friction from printing, letting you make practical decisions instead of penny-pinching ones.

Why This Printer Matters More Than You Think

Printing isn’t glamorous. It’s invisible—until it fails, costs too much, or slows you down. The M1170 is the opposite: it’s invisible because it works. You load paper, hit print, collect your sharp, professional documents. You refill ink once every few months instead of every few weeks. You smile at your cost-per-page instead of wincing.

That’s not just a printer. That’s freedom.
