Designed for a home office or small scale business, the Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840 is an all-in-one inkjet printer. This wide-format printer can print 13″ x 19″ tabloid-size sheets in two different colours. It has an ADF and flatbed that can both scan Tabloid-size papers in a single pass with duplex functionality.
There are two input trays and a rear feeder that can accommodate a total of 550 sheets. Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi direct, Ethernet and USB connections to the computer and external storage devices, as well as compatibility for Mopria Print Service and Apple AirPrint are among the connectivity choices.
Domestic use
Families will find the Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840 to be a great option. It includes a decent ADF scanner that can automatically scan sheets the size of tabloids, double-sided. It offers excellent color accuracy for informal images and a reasonable cost per print for both colour and black papers. Unfortunately, the quality of the photos is merely passable, although they can be printed on occasion.
Office use
Small scale businesses can benefit from the Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840. It features an excellent scanner that can fax and do duplex scanning, and it seems well-built. Although the first page takes a while to print, it prints text documents that are just in black and white rather quickly. Both black and colour ink printing are reasonably priced; nevertheless, the yield of black pages is quite low, so depending on your print load, you may need to replace the cartridge frequently.
For students
For students, the Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840 is an excellent option. The cost-per-print is kept low by the comparatively low cost of the black ink cartridge, even if you might need to replace it frequently if you print a lot. It is easy to use and offers excellent networking possibilities in addition to a superb scanner. Black and white documents print rapidly once they begin rolling, albeit the first page takes a bit to print.
Black and white printing
The Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840 prints in black and white with good quality. Except for tiny details, which are fuzzier, documents appear clear and sharp. The printer produces few black text pages, but its cost per print is still reasonably low. On the other hand, you might need to change the black cartridge more regularly if you print huge documents frequently. Although they cost more, high-yield and extra-high-yield cartridges are available. It prints text pages with simply black letters quickly as well.
Photo printing
The Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840 is decent option for casual photos. Although some graininess and banding are present, printed photos look decently detailed. The colours are accurate enough for home use. It supports most photo sizes except for 2″ x 3″, and it’s fairly affordable to print photos in colour.
