Epson WP-4020 Printer Review

Color inkjet printers are known for providing great photo quality, but are often slower than laser models. The Epson WorkForce Pro WP-4020 aims to change this a bit, with speeds that are comparable to similarly-priced lasers, at 16 pages per minute ISO-rated speeds for black and 11 pages per minute for color. The system uses affordable Epson WP-4020 printer ink to keep costs down, and includes extras like duplexing, wireless support, and mobile printing for convenience.

With the duplexing capabilities of the WP-4020, users can reduce paper costs by half whenever it is enabled. Even when printing two-sided documents, speeds are still fast, at 9.2 pages per minute for black and 7.1 pages per minute in color. The unit includes a wired ethernet port for networking, and excellent wireless support for sharing without extra cables.

The WP-4020 also provides solutions for all of the mobile devices in a user's life, like tablets and smartphones. The Epson Connect standard provides an easy way to send photos, web pages, and more to be printed from a mobile device. The machine also includes support for Apple's AirPrint standard and Google Cloud Print, for those who prefer these protocols.

Epson WP-4020 printer ink cartridges are available in high-capacity and extra high-capacity versions. Using the larger versions, users can potentially print as many as four reams of paper before needing to replace the WorkForce Pro WP-4020 ink cartridges. Prices are generally low, and compatible WorkForce Pro WP-4020 ink provides an even lower cost per page that makes it one of the most economical models in its class.

For buyers who want high-quality inkjet photo output but are often annoyed by slow speeds, the WP-4020 is an excellent choice. It provides many connection options and mobile printing features, and duplexing can help reduce paper costs, while affordable Epson WP-4020 ink makes it even more cost-effective.
