Four Functions Including Fax and ADF:

The L5290 is one of the few EcoTank printers in Kenya that includes a built-in fax alongside print, scan, and copy. For Kenyan businesses, government offices, law firms, medical practices, and NGOs that still send and receive faxed documents, having fax built directly into the printer eliminates the need for a separate fax machine or a dedicated phone line device. The ADF feeds multi-page documents for scanning, copying, and faxing without placing pages one at a time, handling originals at 200 dpi at 4.5 ipm for efficient document digitisation and multi-page fax sending. This combination of four functions, an ADF, fax, and EcoTank low-cost ink makes the L5290 the most complete small office printing solution in the EcoTank range at Jumbo Mart Kenya.

Up to 4,500 Black Pages and 3 Years of Printing:

Epson L5290 uses Epson 103 series EcoTank ink bottles, providing up to 4,500 black pages per black ink bottle and up to 7,500 color pages per color set. Ink in the box supplies up to 3 years of ordinary office printing. For a Kenyan office printing an average of 100 pages a month, the three years of printing from the included ink makes a compelling economic argument for the L5290 over cartridge based options that require monthly or bi-monthly cartridge changes. And the spill-free and mistake-free refilling system fits just the right color tank with keyed nozzles, so you can’t make a mistake or a mess when you refill.

33 ppm Draft Speed and 10-Second First Page Out:

The L5290 prints at up to 33 pages per minute in black draft mode and 15 ppm in colour draft, making it one of the fastest EcoTank consumer models available at this price. ISO-standard speeds are 10 ipm in black and 5 ipm in colour, with a first page out time of approximately 10 seconds in black and 16 seconds in colour from a ready state. Copy speeds reach 7.7 ipm in black and 3.8 ipm in colour. A 4R borderless photo prints in approximately 27 seconds on Epson Premium Glossy Photo Paper.

Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and the Epson Smart Panel App:

The L5290 connects to a network via Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11 b/g/n) and Ethernet for wired deployment, covering both wireless and fixed network setups in Kenyan offices. Wi-Fi Direct allows printing from devices without a router. The Epson Smart Panel app provides full printing, scanning, fax, and printer management from iOS and Android smartphones. AirPrint enables direct printing from iPhone and iPad. Mopria covers Android. Epson Email Print enables internet printing by sending documents directly to the printer's email address from anywhere. The 1.44-inch colour LCD display provides a simple interface for walk-up copying, scanning, and fax operation without a connected computer.

250-Sheet Input Tray and Borderless Photo Printing:

The L5290 uses a 250-sheet plain paper cassette for extended print runs without frequent reloading, alongside a 20-sheet photo paper slot. The maximum paper length supported reaches 1,200mm for long-format printing, and the printer handles Legal, Indian-Legal, 8.5 x 13-inch, and other extended paper sizes beyond standard A4. Borderless printing is supported up to 4R (10 x 15cm) for full edge-to-edge photo output on compatible Epson photo paper.

Heat-Free Micro Piezo Technology:

Epson EcoTank printers, the L5290 uses Epson’s Heat-Free Micro Piezo technology that uses piezoelectric pressure, instead of heat, to eject ink droplets. This reduces power usage. The printhead does not thermally degrade, therefore the size of the ink droplets is more consistent across the life of the printhead. This means that the L5290 delivers a more consistent print quality across its lifetime than heat-based inkjet printers, and uses less electricity per page than laser printers, both important factors for Kenyan offices trying to manage electricity costs and running on UPS during load shedding.
