The WorkForce 610 includes both WiFi and wired network support, with the ability to print, scan, and fax over a network. Office-centric features include the ability to work as a standalone copier and fax machine, complete with a 30-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF) to make quick work of scanning, copying, or faxing multipage documents. The ADF can also handle legal size pages, which are too big to fit on the printer's flatbed, but the manual suggests limiting the number to 10 sheets at a time to avoid paper jams.
Physical setup for the WorkForce 610 is absolutely standard for a printer with four ink cartridges. Set the 9.3- by 22.1- by 12.0-inch (HWD, including trays) printer in place, remove the packing materials, and connect the power cord. Then snap in the ink cartridges and load paper. If you're connecting to a wired network, as I did in my tests, you then connect the cables and run the automated installation routine from disc.
I installed the printer on a Windows Vista system. According to Epson, it also ships with a full set Of drivers and software for Windows 7, 32- and 64-bit Windows XP, and Windows 2000, as well as everything but fax drivers for Mac OS X 10.3.9 through 10.6.x.
Output quality is another plus for the 610. The printer scored above par for an inkjet MFP overall. Its graphics output is a match for the vast majority of inkjets, and text and photo output are better than most.
More than half the fonts in our text test were both easily readable and well formed at five points, with some passing both thresholds at 4 points. As with virtually any inkjet, the smaller fonts don't have the crisp clean edges you would expect from a laser. However, they're more than acceptable for anything short of a resume or similar output that needs to look fully professional.
The WorkForce 610 includes some other conveniences worth mention. You can, for example, give a scan command from the front panel to scan to a USB key, or send the scan to a computer on the network. With either of these methods, you can walk to the printer with the original, scan, and take the original back to your desk, all in one trip. You can also scan to your PC's e-mail program to automatically launch a new e-mail message with the scanned document already attached.
