Review: Epson WorkForce 600 Wireless All-in-One Printer

September 26, 2008 by admin

The Epson Workforce 600 is a very feature rich product, but it had me at ’scan to memory card.’

It’s a very simple feature that I’ve always wanted one of these multifunction units to implement. And Epson has executed it perfectly. Simply put a document in the autofeeder or flatbed, select scan to memory card, and push the button. It scans and safely stores the document on flash memory (it accepts a variety of flash memory cards) in either JPEG for PDF format. Epson even smartly added a file server which effectively turns the printer into a network attached storage device.

These two features are so great I actually have no intention of ever plugging it into my computer. With its built in WiFi I keep it downstairs in my kitchen so I can grab and scan important documents before they get lost on their way upstairs to my office. When I’m ready I just connect to its file share over the network and drag the files into my document manager. Totally awesome.

And yes it does the other stuff well too. Scans are crisp and clean, it has a decent and fast printing mechanism, and it sends and receives faxes adequately.

I highly recommend this well designed and feature-rich product for those looking for a light duty document center.
