Epson WP-4020 Printer Review

The Epson WorkForce Pro WP-4020 is targeted toward small offices that want a single-function printer with versatile and easy-to-use features. Despite being an inkjet device, experts tested the WP-4020 to print at laser-class speeds of up to 16 pages per minute for monochrome documents and 11 pages per minute for color projects. The unit also performed well against output tests and has a low cost per page due to affordable WorkForce Pro WP-4020 printer ink. This helps make it a reliable and cost-efficient machine to own.

Although its size of 18x16x11 inches is large considering it doesn't offer all-in-one functions, the WP-4020 isn't too bulky to print from a desktop. The design is basic and includes a small front panel with a handful of print function buttons and four LEDs that will notify users when any of the Epson WP-4020 printer ink supplies are low. While there aren't any card-reader slots on the front, the unit provides ample connections like wired networking, Wi-Fi and a rear USB port. The device also supports printing through the cloud with Google Cloud Print and can connect easily to a user's iOS mobile phone with Apple AirPrint, with not setup required.

The unit comes with two input trays that allow it to support a maximum media capacity of 330 pages. The WP-4020 can print on a maximum paper size of 8.5x44 inches and a minimum of 4x6 inches, which will allow it to handle projects like poster presentations and photos. Whether printing text or graphic projects, experts note that the device can print water-resistant documents with sharp detail and a resolution of 4800x1200 dpi using black and color WorkForce Pro WP-4020 ink.

The machine uses individual black, cyan, magenta and yellow Epson WP-4020 ink cartridges that can be replaced separately for low running costs. Each color supply has a maximum capacity of 1,200 pages and the black Epson WP-4020 ink cartridge can last 2,400 pages, making it suitable for moderate daily printing.

There are a number of note-worthy features offered by the WP-4020, from its versatile connections and quick speeds to its sharp color and monochrome output quality. Buyers looking for a single-function printer that bundles these features for a fair price tag should definitely consider this inkjet model.
