An honest Epson EcoTank L3250 review for Bangladeshi buyers: what the ৳22,500 price buys you, real running costs, who should skip it, and how it compares to Brother and Deli printers.
If you are comparing printers before checkout, the Epson EcoTank L3250 A4 Wi-Fi Multifunction price in Bangladesh is the number most shoppers start with — and at Gravity Bazar it is ৳22,500.00. That is real money for a home or small-office printer, so this review focuses on whether the running costs and features justify it, and when a cheaper laser makes more sense.
We will not guess at specifications we cannot confirm. What follows is a practical breakdown: what the L3250 is built to do, what it costs to run day to day, who it suits in a Bangladeshi household or shop, and how it stacks up against three alternatives we stock.
What the Epson EcoTank L3250 A4 Wi-Fi Multifunction price in Bangladesh actually buys
The L3250 is an ink tank all-in-one: it prints, scans and copies in colour on A4 paper, and it connects over Wi-Fi as well as USB. The EcoTank design means ink comes in bottles that you pour into built-in tanks rather than sealed cartridges you swap out.
That single design choice is the reason the price sits where it does. You are paying upfront for a printer that is cheap to refill, not for a printer that is cheap to buy. If you print a handful of pages a month, that trade does not work in your favour.
Who this printer is built for
Three groups get real value here. Households with school-going children who print assignments and admit cards. Small offices that need colour documents, scanning and copying from one desk. And shopkeepers or tuition teachers who print a steady volume every week and are tired of cartridge bills.
If you print mostly black-and-white invoices in high volume, read the laser options below before deciding.
Running costs: the part that decides whether ৳22,500 is good value
Ink tank printers are sold on cost per page, and that is where the L3250 earns its price back. Bottled ink is far cheaper per millilitre than cartridge ink, and the tanks hold a lot of it. For a family printing 100–300 pages a month, the savings add up within a year or two.
Two honest caveats. First, colour printing uses colour ink even when a document looks mostly black, so mixed printing drains tanks faster than text-only printing. Second, if the printer sits unused for weeks, ink can dry and clog the print head — a maintenance cycle then wastes ink.
- Print weekly, not monthly. A short test page every week keeps the print head healthy.
- Use genuine or well-reviewed ink bottles. Cheap unbranded ink is the most common cause of clogged heads.
- Print in grayscale by default for drafts and internal documents to stretch colour tanks.
- Keep the printer out of direct sun and dust. Dhaka dust and heat are hard on any inkjet.
Epson EcoTank L3250 A4 Wi-Fi Multifunction: honest review of daily use
Setup is the first test. Epson's Wi-Fi setup app walks you through connecting the printer to your home router, and once connected, phones and laptops on the same network can print without cables. In practice, most buyers get it working in one sitting; if your router is far away or on a different floor, expect some trial and error.
Day-to-day, the L3250 behaves like a dependable small-office machine. Scanning and copying go through the flatbed, which handles passports, ID cards and book pages without a document feeder. That is fine for occasional copying and slow for bulk work.
Speed is the honest weak point. Ink tank printers in this class are not fast, and full-page colour photos take noticeably longer than text pages. For a home or a small shop, that is acceptable. For a counter serving a queue of customers, it is not.
The trade-offs we would tell a friend about
This listing is marked unofficial, which in the Bangladeshi market usually means parallel import rather than official distributor stock. Ask about the warranty terms before you buy, and keep your invoice safe. We list it plainly rather than hide it.
Also, this is a print-scan-copy machine, not a fax or a heavy-duty office workhorse. If you need automatic double-sided printing, check the specification carefully before ordering, because assumptions here are where buyers get disappointed.

How the L3250 compares with three alternatives we stock
Price alone does not tell you which printer to buy. Here is how the L3250 sits against the other machines on our shelves, with the trade-off stated plainly for each.
If you need colour scanning and copying
The Deli D511W All-In-One Color Ink Tank Printer at ৳15,000.00 is the closest budget rival. It also prints, scans and copies in colour from ink tanks, and it costs ৳7,500 less. It suits students and home users who want colour on a tight budget. The honest trade-off: you are buying a less established name in this segment, so check ink availability locally before committing.
If you mostly print black-and-white documents
The Brother HL-L2320D Auto Duplex Laser Printer (30 PPM) at ৳15,300.00 is a single-function laser that prints fast and handles double-sided pages automatically. For invoices, forms and long text documents, laser toner does not dry out the way inkjet ink does. The trade-off: no colour, no scanning, no copying.
The Brother HL-B2100D Single Function Laser Printer at ৳18,000.00 is the simpler laser option for a desk that only needs reliable text printing. It suits a small office that already has a separate scanner. The trade-off is the same: black-and-white only, and you pay more than the duplex model above for fewer features.
Where the L3250 wins
The Epson EcoTank L3250 A4 Wi-Fi Multifunction InkTank Printer (Unofficial) at ৳22,500.00 is the only one of the four that combines colour printing, scanning, copying and Wi-Fi in a single machine. It suits a home or small office that wants one device to do everything. The trade-off is the highest upfront price and slower speed than the lasers.
A practical buying checklist before you order
Use this list to avoid the common regrets. It takes two minutes and saves a return.
- Count your real monthly print volume — check your last three months if you can.
- Decide whether you genuinely need colour, or whether black-and-white covers 90% of your printing.
- Confirm you need scanning and copying, or whether a single-function printer plus a phone scanner app is enough.
- Check that your Wi-Fi reaches the spot where the printer will sit.
- Ask about warranty terms and where servicing is available in your city.
- Confirm the ink bottle type you will need and that refills are easy to find locally.
- Keep the invoice and packaging until you have tested printing, scanning and Wi-Fi.
Delivery, payment and returns at Gravity Bazar
We ship nationwide, so the Epson EcoTank L3250 price in Bangladesh is not the only cost you should plan for — factor in delivery time to your district. Cash on delivery is available, which matters if you prefer to pay when the box is in your hands.
Easy returns apply, but check the condition requirements before you open ink bottles. Once ink is poured into a tank, a printer is generally treated as used, so test the machine's setup and Wi-Fi connection before you fill the tanks if you are unsure.
For safe handling of printer ink and waste toner at home, the World Health Organization publishes general guidance on household chemical safety that is worth a look if children are around.
So, should you buy the L3250?
Buy it if you print regularly, need colour plus scanning plus copying, and want low running costs over the next two to three years. The Epson EcoTank L3250 A4 Wi-Fi Multifunction price in Bangladesh of ৳22,500 makes sense for that profile.
Skip it if you print under 30 pages a month, need only black-and-white text, or run a busy counter where speed matters. The Brother lasers at ৳15,300 and ৳18,000, or the Deli D511W at ৳15,000, will serve those needs better and cost less upfront.
There is no single best printer here — only the one that matches how you actually print. Decide that first, and the price becomes an easy decision rather than a confusing one.

What real owners notice after the first month
The spec sheet tells you the L3250 prints 10 pages per minute in black and 5 in colour, but daily ownership reveals details no brochure mentions. Most buyers discover the ink level windows on the front are genuinely useful because they can see remaining ink without opening software. The flatbed lid, however, has no document feeder, so scanning a ten-page contract means lifting the lid ten times. Owners who print school worksheets in bursts appreciate that the first page appears quickly from standby, while the Wi-Fi Direct button saves the day when the home router drops. Expect the paper tray to hold 100 sheets, which is fine for a family but thin for an office. The output tray also extends only slightly, so long print jobs can slide onto the desk if nobody is watching.
Who should avoid the L3250 entirely
This machine is wrong for anyone who prints more than roughly 200 monochrome pages a week, because a laser will finish the job faster and with sharper text. Avoid it if you need automatic duplex printing, since flipping pages by hand becomes tedious beyond a few sheets. Skip it if your work involves scanning stacks of invoices, if you require A3 output, or if you expect official Epson warranty coverage, because this unit is sold as an unofficial import. Anyone printing mainly on cardstock above 256 gsm should also look elsewhere, as the rear feed path is straight but not designed for heavy media.
Storage and setup mistakes that cost money
Storing the printer unused for months is the most common error. Ink in the tubes can settle and the print head may clog, so run a nozzle check every two or three weeks even if you print nothing. Never store the unit on its side or tilt it while full, because ink can leak into the internal sponge and stain future output. During setup, resist the urge to top up bottles before the first charge completes; the initial ink charging cycle takes about ten minutes and must not be interrupted. Keep the yellow, magenta and cyan bottles capped tightly and upright, and store spares away from direct sunlight. Finally, do not unplug the printer at the wall while it is mid-cycle, as the head may park incorrectly and dry out.
Price positioning against what else we stock
At ৳22,500 the L3250 sits above the Deli D511W All-In-One Color Ink Tank Printer at ৳15,000, a gap of ৳7,500 that buys you Epson's print head reputation, Wi-Fi convenience and better software support. If colour is not essential, the Brother HL-L2320D Auto Duplex Laser Printer at ৳15,300 delivers 30 pages per minute with automatic two-sided printing, and the Brother HL-B2100D Single Function Laser Printer at ৳18,000 offers faster monochrome output without scanning. Put simply, the L3250 is the value pick for mixed colour and black printing, while both Brothers win on speed and text sharpness. Buyers comparing the Epson EcoTank L3250 A4 Wi-Fi Multifunction price in Bangladesh against laser rivals should weigh ink cost per page, not just the sticker price.
Bangladesh weather, power and delivery realities
Humidity above 80 percent during the monsoon is the biggest environmental threat to an ink tank printer. Keep the L3250 in an air-conditioned or fan-ventilated room, and avoid placing it beside a window that catches rain spray. Frequent load-shedding means an inexpensive UPS is worth considering, because abrupt power loss during printing can interrupt the head cleaning cycle. When ordering, confirm the delivery address includes a landmark and a working mobile number, since couriers in Dhaka and Chattogram often call before arrival. Ask the delivery person to let you inspect the carton for water damage before signing, especially in July and August. After unpacking, let the printer sit at room temperature for two hours before charging ink if the box travelled through heavy rain.
At Gravity Bazar, the Epson EcoTank L3250 A4 Wi-Fi Multifunction InkTank Printer (Unofficial) is listed at ৳22,500.00. Check the product page for the current price before ordering.
It suits homes that print regularly and need colour, scanning and copying in one machine. If you print only a few pages a month, ink can dry out and a cheaper laser may serve you better.
It usually means parallel import rather than official distributor stock. Confirm the warranty terms with us before buying and keep your invoice safe.
Yes. It is a multifunction ink tank printer that prints, scans and copies in colour on A4 paper, and it connects over Wi-Fi as well as USB.
It depends on volume and colour use. Ink tank refills are cheap per page for colour work, while laser toner suits high-volume black-and-white printing and does not dry out when idle.
