Download Driver Printer Epson Workforce WF-7610DWF

DOWNLOAD DRIVER PRINTER EPSON WORKFORCE WF-7610DWF – Epson WorkForce WF-7610DWF multifunction printer (MFP), which costs $249.99, fills a limited market need. This model is primarily recommended if you need to print and scan documents up to tabloid size (11 by 17 inches), or slightly larger. However, since there is only one paper tray, you cannot simultaneously load two sizes. However, the WF-7610DWF ($759.00 at Amazon)(Opens in a new window) can work well as a backup printer if your small, micro, or home office already has a letter-size printer.

The Epson Workforce WF-7610DWF supports large paper sizes and has a broad range of MFP features. Basic capabilities include standalone fax and copier functionality, printing and faxing from and scanning to a PC, including over a network. Additionally, it has features for connecting to the Internet and mobile printing, and it can print from and scan to memory cards and USB memory keys.

Having a wide range of MFP features, the WF-7610DWF supports large paper sizes. The most fundamental functions include standalone fax and copier functionality, printing, faxing, and scanning to a PC, including over a network. It can print from and scan to USB memory keys and memory cards, and it has features for mobile printing and Internet connectivity as well. The printer also supports Wi-Fi Direct, so you can still print from your phone or tablet even if you connect it to a computer via USB cable.

Size of the printer and paper handling

The WF-7610DWF offers competent paper handling, despite its single paper tray limitation. There is a single-sheet manual feed in addition to the 250-sheet drawer, allowing you to print on a different paper size for brief documents without changing the paper in the main tray.

Standard-cut sheet sizes up to 13 by 19 inches (super-tabloid) can be held by the tray and manual feed, which is larger than what many rivals can manage. For instance, the maximum paper size for the Brother MFC-J4710DW ($1,225.10 at Amazon)(Opens in a new window) and the maximum paper size for the Brother MFC-J6920DW ($1,572.40 at Amazon)(Opens in a new window)or the ISO equivalent, but slightly different, A3 size.

The WF-7610DWF has a flatbed and a 35-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF) for scanning that can accommodate both tabloid and A3-sized paper. Better yet, the ADF can duplex, scanning one side of the page at a time before flipping it over to scan the other.

You can copy both single- and double-sided documents to your preferred single- or double-sided copies thanks to duplex scanning and printing. The WF-7610DWF can also do this with tabloid-size paper, which I was able to confirm in my tests, in contrast to some tabloid-size MFPs that restrict their duplexing to letter- and legal-size paper.

Configuration, pace, and output calibre

The WF-7610DWF is a large, heavy printer, similar to most tabloid-size printers. With the output tray closed, it has a HWD of 13.4 by 22.3 by 19.1 inches and weighs 40 pounds, 13 ounces. The tray extends all the way, increasing the depth to 32.2 inches. Setting up an inkjet MFP is simple as long as there is space available. I connected it to a wired network and used a Windows Vista computer to install the necessary drivers and software for my tests.

Using the hardware and software for timing provided by Quality Logic (Opens in a new window), I measured the printer’s output at 5.4 pages per minute while using our business applications suite (ppm). That represents a significant improvement over the Brother MFC- J6920DW 5.5ppm,  which was roughly tied with the Epson WorkForce WF-7510 3.9ppm, and is only marginally slower than the Brother MFC- J4710DW 5.7ppm.

Unfortunately, the output quality of the WF-7610DWF isn’t as impressive or at least not consistently as its speed. For inkjet MFPs, its text quality is at the top of the range. Even though it can’t compete with a laser printer, it is more than adequate for any business use, unless you have an unusual requirement for small fonts.

For inkjets, graphic quality is at the low end of the spectrum. The output can be used well for any internal business purpose, but it might not be suitable for PowerPoint presentations or similar materials. Colors are typically a little faded, and I noticed some clear banding in sizable areas of dark hues. The output on photo paper is typical, with photo quality roughly on par with what you would expect from prints from a drugstore.

There is a 4.3-inch colour touch-screen and a set of menus that are incredibly simple to use to operate the printer. The three functions copying, scanning, and faxing are made simple to use together. Up to 12 presets with settings for resolution, duplexing, cloud destination, and other features are also possible. The presets eliminate the need to repeatedly define all the settings by allowing you to easily issue commands from the front panel for routine tasks.

Based on letter-size pages, Epson’s claimed yield, and cartridge costs, its relatively high cost per page 3.2 cents for black and white and 11.4 cents for color might be a drawback. For comparison, the Brother MFC-J4710DW claims to cost 2.3 cents for black and white and 8 cents for colour per letter-size page. Even less is claimed to cost with the Brother MFC-J6920DW, at 1.7 cents for black and white and 7.4 cents for colour.

You’ll probably be better off with one of the Brother models, both of which offer two paper trays, if the largest paper you need to handle is tabloid or A3 size. If you need to scan, print at a size larger than legal, or use A3-size paper, the Brother MFC-J6920DW is the obvious choice. If you only need to print at tabloid size (not A3) and don’t need to scan at a large size, the Brother MFC-J4710DW will probably be the better choice. The Epson WorkForce WF-7520, which has two trays as well, is another option you might want to take into account. It has a maximum print size of super-tabloid and a maximum scan size of tabloid and A3.

The Epson WorkForce WF-7610DWF is one of the few inexpensive inkjet MFPs that can handle up to 13-by-19-inch paper, though it is only useful if you already have another printer for letter-size output and need to print on paper up to super-tabloid size. It also greatly helps that it is quick, produces text of excellent quality, and provides a wide range of MFP capabilities.
