Epson WorkForce WF-7015 - Epson's First Networked A3+ Printer

11/5/2012 9:09:14 AM

Small and sleek is all good and well, but it doesn't really inspire confidence as far as heavy workloads are concerned. And neither should it - we think of small and sleek when we consider personal devices, not work. So when you take the Epson WorkForce WF-7015 printer out of its box, you won't be confused. This massive printer is designed to work hard.

Epson WorkForce WF-7015

Part of Epson's new WorkForce range of inkjet printers, the WF-7015 is perfect for businesses that have a fair share of printing to do. It comes armed with dual paper trays and can produce a page of black printing in around four seconds. That's fifteen black pages per minute, and around five full colour in the same time period. The dual trays will hold up to five hundred sheets of paper between the two, so you won't be reloading paper all the time, either. And it prints A3 sheets, too.

All of that solidifies the fact that this is a work-horse, perfect for a business network. It features Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity, too, and makes use of long lasting Durabrite Ultra inks.

It's work place focus is further enhanced by the fact that this device is a printer, and nothing more. It is made for printing, and eschews faxing, scanning and copying in favour of reliable print performance. Another aspect that makes it great for the work place is that it is extremely simple to use - even the office village idiot will be fine using it. The interface on the printer itself features ink level warnings and very simple controls.

The performance that the WF-7015 delivers is great. It is quick and efficient, which forms part of the direction that Epson is taking with this range of printers. It's faster than a laser-jet, which many companies opt for, and the durable inks mean that prints last longer and are less resistant to things like liquid spills (one of the reasons why inkjets aren't very popular in the work place). In addition, it uses individual colour cartridges, which work out to be more economical in the long run.

Epson have, in this printer, created a viable workplace inkjet alternative. The lack of multiple functions to take a little appeal way from the device but, then again, focussed devices are preferred by many. The large paper load, A3 capabilities and economic operation of this device make sense, but it does belong in the kind of environment that would require this type of device. It is not compact at all, and an office that needs scanning and copying as well will need even more space, because the WF-7015 won't provide those. But if you have the right kind of environment, and require a printer that will breeze through a heavy work-load effortlessly, it's a strong contender.
