The Epson M105 is a single function inkjet printer that outputs black and white prints only. Armed with sophisticated printing technology, it delivers high quality printed pages at a low cost per page and respectable speed.

The unit offers impressive durability for high-volume printing, a flexible network connectivity for better productivity, and an affordable ink system for low cost printing.

Features and Highlights

Fast Print Times

Printing pages in black and white only is faster than printing in color, especially if the draft mode is enabled. The quoted print speed of the Epson M105 in that mode is the same as the speed of other M-series printers, which is up to thirty four pages per minute.

High Ink Capacity

Refilling the ink tank is easy, but it still takes time to finish and the printer cannot be used during the process. That’s why it is a good thing that the Epson M105 has a high ink capacity. It greatly reduces the printer’s downtime.

A single 140ml bottle of black ink can output up to six thousand monochrome pages. However, the lack of a lower capacity might be a dealbreaker for a few potential buyers who prefer to save money on initial cost of purchase rather than running cost.

The initial starter kit of the printer does include one 70ml bottle of ink in addition to one 140ml bottle of ink, but it is not for sale. The two bottles have a total page yield of up to eight thousand pages. With that much ink, unless you print hundreds of pages a month, it will take plenty of months for the ink to run out.

Ease of Use

While the M100 and M200 only provides Ethernet to be shared among a workgroup, the M105 offers the convenience of wireless connectivity, which increases work efficiency to a new level.

Moreover, by installing the Epson iPrint app, you can send printing instructions directly from your mobile devices, scan to supported cloud storage services, scan to email, and scan to your devices.

Unfortunately, the list of Epson M105’s features doesn’t include the 2-line LCD screen that can be found on the front control panel of the M200 and M205.

Flatbed Scanner

The flatbed scanner that is a feature of many multifunction printers, including the Epson M105, is a good option to scan a few pages but a pain for multi-page documents.

For users who often deal with the latter, a printer with an automatic document feeder, such as Epson M200 and M205, which are also monochrome printers, will save them hours.

Epson M105 Driver Free Download

As with a color printer, a monochrome print-only unit like the M105 can only be operated from a PC that has already had its driver installed on the system.

Installing the driver is not even remotely difficult. In fact, the procedure is more straightforward than the installation of some software. Its file size won’t be an issue as well due to how small it is. You can click the link below to download Epson M105 Driver for Windows:
