Epson’s WorkForce WF-2651
Network Asia reported on the release of the new printers, which include the WF-2651, 2661 and 2631, with the OEM stating that the devices are “purpose-built” for the SOHO and office markets to “save business’s desktop space and lower their printing costs” through “a host of convenience-enhancing features”.
The “ultra-compact” printers include an automatic document feeder with a 30-sheet capacity, Epson Connect features for mobile printing – including iPrint for mobile printing, email print and remote print – “flexible shared printing” through wireless connectivity, and Wi-Fi Direct functionality for connecting up to four devices “without the need for a router”.
Each printer can also access Apple’s AirPrint and Google’s Cloud Print, and has an LCD screen, while the 2651 and 2661 have Epson’s PrecisionCore printhead technology for “versatile, high-speed” prints at 33ppm. The 2631 has a print resolution of 5,760dpi and a print speed of 34ppm and a “small footprint”, while the 2661 has NFC (near-field communication) functionality, making it the “first [Epson device] to offer this functionality”, and all three utilise the OEM’s DURABrite Ultra pigment inks, which offer “high quality prints that are smudge, fade and water resistant”.
