A premium six-colour EcoTank for borderless A4 photography, specialist creative media and everyday document printing, with touchscreen and mobile control.

At a Glance

  • Claria ET Premium ink system: 6 Colours
  • ISO mono print speed: 16 ppm
  • Colour touchscreen: 10.9cm
  • Up to one ink set: 2,300 Photos

The Epson EcoTank ET-8500 combines specialist photo capability with the convenience of an everyday A4 multifunction printer. It prints, scans and copies, while the refillable six-colour ink system is designed to produce detailed photographs, expressive black-and-white images and sharp documents without conventional cartridges.

Dedicated front trays keep A4 and photo-size paper ready, while two rear feeds provide greater flexibility for suitable craft paper, card and thicker media. Automatic double-sided A4 printing supports routine paperwork, and direct USB or memory-card printing makes it easy to produce photographs without opening a computer.

Six-colour photo ink, flexible A4 media handling and high-yield refillable tanks make the ET-8500 a complete creative printer for the modern home.

Ideal For

  • Photography Enthusiasts: Create detailed borderless colour and black-and-white photographs in sizes up to A4.
  • Artists and Crafters: Print on suitable craft paper, card, fine-art media and other specialist materials through dedicated rear feeds.
  • Creative Family Homes: Combine premium photo output with everyday scanning, copying and automatic double-sided document printing.

Key Features

  • Six-Colour Claria ET Premium Ink: Photo black and grey inks expand tonal control for photographs, while pigment black creates crisp text on plain paper.
  • Borderless A4 Photo Printing: Create edge-to-edge photographs, artwork and personalised prints without limiting projects to smaller photo formats.
  • Five-Way Media Handling: Dedicated front trays and rear feeds support documents, photo paper, suitable card and specialist creative media.
  • Thick and Long Media Support: The straight rear path accepts suitable media up to 1.3mm thick and sheets up to two metres long.
  • 10.9cm Colour Touchscreen: Navigate print, copy and maintenance functions clearly, with direct access to compatible SD cards and USB drives.
  • EcoTank Refillable Ink System: High-capacity tanks and keyed bottles simplify refilling, with one set capable of printing up to 2,300 photos.
  • Greater Depth in Colour and Monochrome Prints: The Claria ET Premium system combines pigment black, photo black, cyan, magenta, yellow and grey inks. Dedicated grey supports smoother tonal transitions in black-and-white photographs, while photo black adds stronger contrast and deeper shadows on suitable photo media.
  • Flexible Media for Creative Projects: Separate front trays keep everyday A4 paper and photo media available without constant swapping. Rear feeds expand the choice of suitable craft paper, card and fine-art media, while direct CD and DVD printing supports personalised disc projects.
  • Direct, Mobile and Network Printing: The 10.9cm touchscreen allows photographs to be selected and printed directly from compatible SD cards and USB flash drives. Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct and Ethernet provide flexible network access, while Apple AirPrint, Mopria, Epson Connect and Epson Smart Panel support printing, scanning and printer management from compatible mobile devices.

Legal guarantee

Minimum two-year legal guarantee protection for goods sold in the European Union.

Consumers can claim their rights under the legal guarantee of conformity, for example if goods:

  • do not match the description;
  • do not function as intended.

Sellers are liable for any lack of conformity which existed when the goods were delivered, and which becomes apparent within the legal guarantee period. Sellers in such a situation are required to offer:

  • free repair or free replacement;
  • in some cases, a price reduction or full reimbursement.

Some countries have a longer legal guarantee period. For second-hand goods, a shorter period may apply, but not less than one year.

For more information on your rights in a specific country, scan the QR code below or ask the seller. europa.eu/youreurope/guarantees

What to do if you receive non-conforming goods:

  1. Contact the seller as soon as possible to report the issue;
  2. Provide proof of purchase, such as a receipt, invoice, or bank statement.

Sellers and producers may also offer commercial guarantees, which apply independently from the legal guarantee. For example, you may see this GARAN label representing a commercial guarantee of durability offered by the producer at no additional cost and covering the entire good.
