Epson WorkForce WF-3640DTWF Ink Cartridges

Epson WorkForce WF-3640DTWF Expert Review

The Epson WorkForce WF-3640DTWF is a 4-in-one machine capable of delivering fast printing for your business whether you’re looking for colour graphics or text documents.

Boosted by a 500-sheet paper capacity and 35-page Automatic Document Feeder, the Epson machine also possesses a speciality paper tray that’ll allow you to print on thicker media such as cards and envelopes.

Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity is included whilst the WF-3640DTWF has an 8.8cm touchscreen to help users navigate through the various print, scan, copy and fax functions. For printing from smartphones and tablets there is Epson Connect and you can even print from potentially anywhere in the world by emailing documents to the printer directly.

Text documents will be of a standard you’d expect to see when using a laser printer thanks to Epson’s DURABrite Ultra Ink. A bonus for those who print in high volumes is the fact the WF-3640DTWF can accept XL and even XXL ink cartridges to help your printing go further.

Print speeds of up to 19ppm are provided in addition to double-sided printing and the ability to print from cloud services.

Epson WorkForce WF-3640DTWF Review

For business users, paper capacity can be a crucial consideration when choosing an office printer. Fortunately, the 500-sheet paper capacity of the Epson WorkForce WF-3640DTWF will boost productivity in the workplace and provide all the benefits of a laser printer only using ink cartridges.

As well as the paper handling capabilities of the Epson machine, the ADF is a welcome addition if you’re looking to scan regularly. The double-sided options aren’t just restricted to printing; you can even scan using both sides of the page automatically.

The printer is a fair size and so you may need to allocate a table for printing in the office but the control panel is simple enough. A bonus is that you can set a number of predetermined settings in place that’ll save you time in the long run by selecting a saved setting rather than go through the time consuming process of picking the requirements for your print job.

Business printing is heavily geared towards text document printing so often required for invoices, letters and reports and the quality of results are slightly higher for these mono pages than for colour graphics and photographs.

Pros

• Can print wirelessly and via the cloud
• High paper handling capabilities
• Excellent text quality printing
