The B-310N Business Color Ink Jet Printer from Epson provides a low-cost high-speed color printer with network capabilities. It is designed to handle large printing jobs at a low cost per page, thanks to its low cost per page, a 2,000 page recommended monthly duty cycle, and a 500-sheet letter tray.
Because the printer is an Epson, you also get their patented DURABrite Ultra inks which are guaranteed to be smudge, water, and fade resistance, while their quick-drying time means the printouts are ready to go as they come out.
