Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
The Epson EcoTank L15180 A3 Plus multifunction ink tank printer is now available at Mascom International for KSh 164,000, brand new and sealed. This four-in-one machine prints, scans, copies, and faxes, handling paper up to A3 Plus in simplex and automatic double-sided output up to A3. The Epson EcoTank L15180 runs a PrecisionCore printhead at up to 25 images per minute simplex and 21 ipm duplex on A4. A single set of 008 pigment ink bottles covers 7,500 black pages and 6,000 colour pages. Collect the Epson EcoTank L15180 at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Architecture practices, design studios, secondary schools, county offices, and printing bureaus across Kenya carry the same problem. A3 work goes out to a service bureau because the office machine stops at A4. The Epson EcoTank L15180 removes that trip. Site drawings, exam papers, tender documents, menus, and marketing posters print in-house on the same unit that handles daily A4 correspondence. Two 250-sheet cassettes plus a 50-sheet rear tray hold 550 sheets at once, so a 300-page tender run does not stall for reloading. The 50-sheet automatic document feeder scans and copies stacks without anyone standing at the glass.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya who push A3 colour laser machines needing four toner cartridges per cycle, Mascom International positions the Epson EcoTank L15180 as a bottle-fed alternative. Users consistently report that refill cost, not purchase price, decides whether an A3 machine stays in daily use. Heat-Free Technology draws 20 W during printing, which shows on a Kenya Power bill and matters on inverter or generator backup. At Mascom International, we're seeing county offices and mid-sized firms move A3 volume in-house for exactly this reason. Visit our Kimathi Street store to run a test page, or order for countrywide pay-on-arrival delivery.
Common Questions About the Epson EcoTank L15180
Is the Epson EcoTank L15180 worth KSh 164,000 for a Kenyan office?
It pays back when your office prints more than roughly 1,000 pages a month or sends A3 jobs to an outside bureau. A commercial bureau in Nairobi charges per A3 sheet, and a few hundred posters or drawings a month adds up quickly against a one-time KSh 164,000 purchase. Offices printing under 200 pages monthly should look at a smaller A4 EcoTank instead. Mascom International stocks both tiers, and our Kimathi Street team will size the machine against your actual monthly volume.
What does it actually cost to run per page?
Running cost stays low because the Epson EcoTank L15180 takes refill bottles instead of cartridges. One black 008 bottle is rated for 7,500 pages and the colour set for 6,000 pages under ISO 24711 testing. An office printing 1,500 black pages a month therefore goes about five months on a single black bottle. Paper, electricity at 20 W while printing, and an occasional maintenance box are the only other consumables. Ask Mascom International for current 008 bottle pricing when you order.
Can it really print A3 Plus and double-sided A3?
Yes. Single-sided printing reaches A3 Plus, which is 329 x 483 mm, larger than standard A3 and useful for posters with bleed. Automatic two-sided printing works up to full A3 size, so a folded A3 programme or a double-sided drawing set runs without manual flipping. Copy size also reaches A3, and the flatbed scan area covers 297 x 431.8 mm. Paper as long as 6,000 mm feeds through the rear tray for banners and long-format signage.
How fast is the Epson EcoTank L15180 on a real workload?
On A4 it produces up to 25 ipm simplex and 21 ipm duplex under ISO 24734, with a first page out in about 5.5 seconds. A4 draft mode reaches 32 ppm. A3 output runs at up to 13.5 ipm simplex and 10 ipm duplex, since each sheet carries twice the area. The document feeder scans up to 26 images per minute in grayscale at 200 dpi. A 100-page A4 report finishes in roughly four minutes.
How does it compare to an A3 colour laser printer?
The main difference is consumables and heat. Laser machines fuse toner at high temperature, drawing several hundred watts in bursts, while this unit uses Heat-Free Technology and draws 20 W during printing. That behaves better on inverters, UPS units, and generators common in Kenyan offices. Toner replacement means four cartridges; here you refill four bottles. Laser still wins on very heavy mono duty cycles above 10,000 pages monthly. Below that, bottle-fed ink is cheaper per page.
Does it print from phones and over the office network?
Yes. The Epson EcoTank L15180 connects by Ethernet, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, or Wi-Fi Direct for up to eight devices with no router. Apple AirPrint and Mopria Print Service handle iPhone and Android printing directly. Epson iPrint and Epson Connect add email printing and Scan to Cloud, so a site engineer in Nakuru can send a drawing to the Nairobi office printer. On a Safaricom or Zuku office fibre line, remote printing works from anywhere.
Is 008 ink available in Kenya, and can I use third-party ink?
Genuine Epson 008 pigment bottles are stocked in Kenya, including at Mascom International, in black, cyan, magenta, and yellow. Use them. Third-party or refilled ink is the most common cause of clogged PrecisionCore nozzles and voided warranty claims we see on ink tank machines. Pigment ink also behaves differently from dye ink, which is why substituting a cheaper dye refill produces smudging on the water-resistant output this printer is built to produce.
What scanning, copying, and fax features are included?
The flatbed scanner captures at 1200 x 2400 dpi optical resolution with a CIS sensor and 48-bit colour input. Scan destinations include a USB memory device, a network folder or FTP server, email, and a connected computer. Standalone copying runs up to 999 copies with 25 to 400 percent scaling and an auto-fit function. Walk-up fax handles mono and colour, transmits at 33.6 kbps, and stores up to 550 received pages in 6 MB of memory.
Who should buy this printer, and who should not?
Buy it if you print A3 regularly, run above 1,000 pages a month, and want in-house control of tender documents, drawings, exam papers, or posters. Architecture firms, county offices, schools, print bureaus, and marketing agencies fit that profile. Skip it if you print occasionally, need photo-quality six-colour output, or run more than 10,000 mono pages monthly, where a departmental laser suits better. Our Nairobi CBD team will tell you honestly which side you fall on.
