Summary: Which Printer Should You Choose?

Choose L6360 if you need:

  • L6360 supports an automatic document feeder; ET-2860 explicitly does not.
  • L6360 supports automatic duplex printing; ET-2860 explicitly does not.
  • L6360 supports Ethernet connectivity; ET-2860 explicitly does not.
  • Black ISO print speed is 18 versus 10 ipm for L6360 and ET-2860, respectively.

Choose ET-2860 if you need:

  • Replacement colour ink yield is listed at 7500 versus 6500 pages for ET-2860 and L6360.
  • ET-2860 additionally lists Windows Server in supported operating systems, beyond L6360.
  • ET-2860 weighs 3.9 versus 5.7 kg for L6360.
  • Stated maximum print resolution is 5760 × 1440 versus 4800 × 1200 dpi for ET-2860 and L6360.

The L6360 leads overall on the paired specifications. The L6360 may suit someone prioritising feeding multiple pages for scanning, while the ET-2860 may suit someone needing higher stated replacement-colour yield. A missing entry on one model is a data gap, not proof that it lacks a feature.

What Is the Difference Between Epson EcoTank L6360 and Epson ET-2860?

The L6360 and ET-2860 share printing, scanning and copying, Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct, borderless printing. Their confirmed differences are set out below.

L6360 supports an automatic document feeder; ET-2860 explicitly does not; L6360 supports automatic duplex printing; ET-2860 explicitly does not; L6360 supports Ethernet connectivity; ET-2860 explicitly does not; Replacement colour ink yield is listed at 7500 versus 6500 pages for ET-2860 and L6360; ET-2860 additionally lists Windows Server in supported operating systems, beyond L6360.

The L6360 may suit a need for feeding multiple pages for scanning, while the ET-2860 may suit someone prioritising higher stated replacement-colour yield. Consider the actual functions, throughput, and paper format required. An entry supplied for just one model is insufficient to conclude that the other lacks the feature.
