A bottle-fed office all-rounder that pulls stacks of pages through on its own and sends them down a phone line.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Epson EcoTank L5290 is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 49,000, brand new and sealed. This A4 ink tank all-in-one prints, scans, copies and faxes, and its 30-sheet automatic document feeder pulls multi-page originals through without you lifting the lid. It connects over Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, Ethernet and USB, and refills from Epson 003 ink bottles. Epson rates the black bottle at 4,500 pages and each colour bottle at 7,500 pages. Mascom International keeps the Epson EcoTank L5290 on display at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, ready to test before you buy.
Designed for small offices, law firms, clinics, SACCOs and estate agents, the Epson EcoTank L5290 handles the paperwork that piles up behind a reception desk. Scanning a 20-page lease one sheet at a time on a flatbed wastes a morning. Here you load the stack, press start, and the feeder does the rest while you serve the next client. Doctors in Upper Hill send referral letters by fax, accountants scan supplier invoices to a shared folder, and admin staff copy KRA PIN certificates by the dozen. The Ethernet port lets the whole office print through one wired network point.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell an all-in-one without showing it working, Mascom International runs a feeder scan on the counter so you see the Epson EcoTank L5290 pull pages through. At Mascom International, we're seeing more small businesses in Westlands and Kilimani drop separate fax machines and shared photocopiers for one ink tank unit. Buyers throughout Kenya report that the ink bottles outlast their old cartridges many times over. The Epson EcoTank L5290 suits offices that scan and copy more than they print in bulk. Walk in Monday through Saturday, 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery.
Common Questions About the Epson EcoTank L5290
What is the Epson EcoTank L5290 price in Kenya?
The Epson EcoTank L5290 sells for KSh 49,000 brand new and sealed at Mascom International, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. You get the printer with Epson starter ink, a 12-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery across Kenya. The Epson EcoTank L4360 is KSh 2,000 cheaper at KSh 47,000 and trades the document feeder and fax for automatic double-sided printing. Offices that want both features in one unit can step up to the Epson EcoTank L6370 at KSh 60,000 or the Epson EcoTank L6390 at KSh 64,000.
What does the automatic document feeder on the Epson EcoTank L5290 do?
The automatic document feeder on the Epson EcoTank L5290 holds up to 30 A4 sheets and feeds them through the scanner one after another. You load a contract, statement or report face up, press start, and walk away. It also takes up to 10 Legal sheets and paper from 64 to 95 grams per square metre. The feeder works for scanning, copying and faxing alike. It handles one side of each page, so double-sided originals need a second pass.
Can I still send faxes with the Epson EcoTank L5290 in Kenya?
Yes, the Epson EcoTank L5290 sends and receives black and colour faxes over a standard telephone line at up to 33.6 kbps. It stores up to 100 pages in memory, so incoming faxes are saved if paper runs out. You can programme 100 speed-dial numbers and 99 groups, and send PC fax straight from a computer. Hospitals, insurance offices, courts and some government departments in Kenya still ask for faxed documents, so the feature earns its place on a reception desk.
Should I choose the Epson EcoTank L5290 or the Epson EcoTank L4360?
Choose the Epson EcoTank L5290 for scanning and faxing piles of pages, and the Epson EcoTank L4360 for printing long double-sided documents. The Epson EcoTank L5290 adds a 30-sheet feeder, fax and Ethernet but prints single-sided at up to 10 ipm black. The Epson EcoTank L4360 prints both sides automatically at up to 15 ipm black and carries a black bottle rated at 8,500 pages, against 4,500 here. Colour bottles favour the Epson EcoTank L5290 at 7,500 pages each versus 6,500.
How does the Epson EcoTank L5290 handle KPLC power cuts and Kenyan office networks?
The Epson EcoTank L5290 draws about 12 watts while printing and runs on 220-240V mains, so a small UPS keeps it alive through a KPLC outage. Fax memory holds up to 100 pages, which helps when a blackout interrupts a busy day. In offices with patchy Wi-Fi, the Ethernet port gives a steadier link than a wireless signal. If your Safaricom or Airtel Kenya home fibre drops, Wi-Fi Direct still lets up to eight phones and laptops print with no router.
How long does the Epson EcoTank L5290 ink last?
One black Epson 003 bottle prints up to 4,500 pages on the Epson EcoTank L5290, and each cyan, magenta and yellow bottle up to 7,500 pages. Epson measures these yields on standard test pages, so photo-heavy jobs use more ink. A clinic printing 300 black pages a month would refill black about every 15 months. Bottles have shaped nozzles that fit only the matching tank, which stops colour mix-ups. Mascom International can confirm stock of genuine 003 refills on WhatsApp before you travel.
Who should buy the Epson EcoTank L5290, and who should skip it?
Buy the Epson EcoTank L5290 if your office scans, copies or faxes multi-page documents every day and prints moderate volumes. It fits law chambers, clinics, schools, SACCOs and property agents. Skip it if you print long reports and want automatic double-sided output; the Epson EcoTank L4360 covers that for less. Offices that print only black text in volume should look at the Epson EcoTank M3140 at KSh 47,000. Photographers need the six-colour Epson EcoTank L8050 instead.
Can the Epson EcoTank L5290 scan documents straight to email or the cloud?
Yes, the Epson EcoTank L5290 scans to the cloud through Epson Connect and to a computer over Wi-Fi, Ethernet or USB. The flatbed and feeder both scan at up to 1,200 x 2,400 dpi optical resolution, sharp enough for signed contracts and ID pages. Staff can send scans to a laptop, then attach them to email or upload them to eCitizen and KRA iTax. Epson's mobile app also scans to an Android phone or an iPhone, ready to share on WhatsApp.

Package Contents
Inside the Epson EcoTank L5290 box you get the printer and a set of Epson 003 ink bottles in four colours. Some of that starter ink primes the print head during first setup, so the first fill delivers fewer pages than later refills. Epson does not list a fax phone cord, USB cable or Ethernet cable for this model. Mascom International stocks USB and network cables, extra ink and paper, so ask our team on WhatsApp.

The Epson EcoTank L5290 ships with a 12-month warranty through Mascom International, covering manufacturing defects under normal use. Cover includes the print head, document feeder, scanner and fax hardware. Claims are handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street; bring the printer and your purchase receipt.
