Epson 840 Printer Review

The Epson WorkForce 840 is an all-in-one inkjet printer designed for the home or small office or small business user who needs professional features in a fairly compact and affordable design. Print quality is sharp and detailed, and print speeds are up to 15 pages per minute for black and 9.3 pages for color. Though the speeds are a bit on the slow side, the low cost of printer ink makes up for it, thanks to the affordable Epson 840 ink prices.

Many of the features included with the 840 are those buyers would expect from more expensive business models. Automatic duplexing makes it easy to scan from or print on both sides of the page, saving paper and increasing productivity. Both wired and wireless networking are supported, allowing the machine to easily integrate into almost any type of network setup. The wireless setup is also convenient for home users, or those with many mobile devices such as laptops and smartphones.

The cost of printer ink is a concern with any inkjet, but WorkForce 840 ink cartridges are some of the most affordable in its class. The high capacity versions of Epson 840 ink cartridges have an impressive 755-page yield, which means users won't have to replace Epson 840 ink very often.

Cnet reviewed the Epson 840 and gave it a rating of 4 out of 5 stars. They liked its professional features, and felt they partially justified its higher-than-average price. They also liked the support for mobile printing and wireless networking, as well as its easy setup routine.

Overall, the 840 is a great fit for users who want an affordable all-in-one, but don't want to sacrifice business features. Its print speeds are a bit slow, and its photo quality is not as good as some competing models, but its great features and the low cost of WorkForce 840 ink make it a very economical choice.
