printing is a common demand in daily office work. For example, SMB small businesses or personal studios, in addition to meeting high-quality printing, they also hope to save printing costs. In addition, the diversity of offices often requires printing, copying and scanning of documents at work. For SMB small business users, the all-in-one machine with more comprehensive functions can not only save procurement costs, but also include printing, copying, scanning and other functions. Like the Epson L3219 new color multi-functional all-in-one machine reviewed this time, it integrates three core functions: printing, copying and scanning, making office printing easier.
The body is simple, the small and flexible
The entire appearance of the Epson L3219 full color multi-functional all-in-one machine is simple. The whole machine does not have too many design elements, namely the ink tank, key block, paper feed unit, and paper output unit. The design of the whole machine can be said to be very neat. The volume of the whole machine is only 375mm×347mm×179mm, which is very small and does not occupy too much space. It is very suitable for some small offices or personal studios. The body weight is only 3.9KG, which is very light and can be easily transported by girls.
Epson L3219 full-color multi-function all-in-one machine has only 4 buttons, namely power supply, black and white copy, color copy and function buttons (mainly implementing functions such as cleaning nozzles, adding ink, etc.). If you want to realize more functions through the form of a combination of keys, for example, you need to press black and white copy + color copy at the same time when you turn on the scanning mode. To achieve copying in economic mode, press and hold the function key + copy button. The actual key operation is more complicated than imagined. To understand the key function of this Epson L3219, it takes some time to learn. Generally speaking, printing or scanning of files is the most convenient choice to operate directly through the computer.
Because the paper will bend, it is easy to slip. Epson L3219 is designed on the back of the body to smoothly place the printing paper and avoid the slipping situation of the paper bending.
is a paper output unit at the bottom, which can accommodate up to 30 pages of A4 paper and 20 pages of high-quality glossy photo paper.
Here we must mention the ink design. L3219 uses 4-color inks of BK (black) + Y (yellow) + M (magenta) + cyan (C), and comes with 4 new bottles of ink. Before use, the user needs to manually pour the inside of the machine. The bottle opening and the entrance of the all-in-one machine are designed to firmly fix the ink bottle to avoid accidents caused by falling off. In addition, the ink injection does not require squeezing, and the ink is automatically poured into the ink compartment, which is quite foolish. According to official data, these 4 bottles of ink can print 4,500 black and white A4 documents, or 7,500 color A4 documents.
Epson L3219's internal structure has also been simplified. You can see the internal structure of the printer by opening the lid in the middle. If a paper jam occurs during printing, you can directly open the cover to remove the stuck paper, which provides quite convenient for actual maintenance and use.
low-cost printing, meets the functions of
for daily office work, Epson L3219 realizes three major functions: printing, copying, and scanning, which is well covered by the needs of SMB small and micro enterprises and individual offices. As a printer, how effective is it?
L3219 can print A4 text at most. It uses Heat-Free cold printing technology and can print directly without heating, saving the time required for the printer to heat. In economic mode, the printing speeds of black and white text and color text are 33 IPM and 15 IPM respectively, and the maximum printing resolution is 5760x1440 dpi.
According to the official data, 4500 black and white prints can be achieved when the ink is full capacity, and 7500 color prints can be achieved. After conversion, the cost of black and white printing on each page is only 0.01 yuan, and color printing is around 0.03 yuan. The scanner uses CIS photosensitive parts, the physical scanning resolution is 1200 Dpi, and the optical resolution is 600 Dpi. The core parameters are quite similar to similar products. However, as a printing device, what we care about the most is the quality of the finished product printing and scanning.
First test the effect of using Imageexpert template to test the effect on L3219 on A4 paper. For ordinary enterprises, ordinary 70g A4 paper has met the printing needs. In the test, no higher quality 80g and 90g A4 paper were specially selected. The all-in-one machine sets the highest image quality output, so that the printing effect can be experienced with the best experience.
Judging from the camera's remake of the Imageexpert template printed by L3219, the printing effect is good, the color transition between each grid is relatively natural, and there is no obvious color level.
text printing effect is clear, and fonts of 4pt size can also be seen clearly, especially templates with black characters on white background, and basically all 26 letters are seen.
In the resolution test, L3219 can clearly display C/V or 3C/H lines of 5 to 4. When the value reaches 3, the lines are already stuck, and they can barely distinguish. When the value drops to 2, the lines are almost completely stuck together.

Photos printed
Next, let's take a look at the printing quality of L3219. The original image was taken using a professional camera, with a resolution of 6480*4024. Kodak 7-inch high-gloss photo paper was used when printing, and the highest quality printing was used in Photoshop. The color of the L3219 output photo is a little blue.
is the last scan test. The highest 600 Dpi accuracy is used during the test, and the size of the scanned document is A4. After completing the scan, the original image is cropped to better observe the effect.
From the perspective of scanning effect, the effect of L3219 is still quite good, and it has good control over the pixel points and noise of the scanned object. The image is clear and there is no sign of blur, which ensures the quality of the scan output.
However, before scanning, set the scan mode to photo mode in the Epson ScanSmart software. If the picture is scanned in document or automatic mode, the scanned picture will have obvious molar .
Conclusion
As a desktop all-in-one machine, Epson L3219's new color multi-functional all-in-one machine has good performance in printing and scanning. Simplified operations can achieve one-click printing and scanning. The small size does not occupy much space. For SMB small businesses and personal studios, it is a multi-functional all-in-one machine that can meet a variety of printing needs. The only regret is that this product does not support networking function and cannot be connected and printed through the network. It requires a special computer to be connected to the all-in-one machine, which is slightly inconvenient.
