Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
The Epson WorkForce Pro WP-4540 is a fairly large, square-footprint, wireless, all-in-one inkjet printer designed to meet the demands of a small office. Notably, it has two paper trays for less down time replenishing paper and large capacity ink cartridges. It is easy to set up as a wireless network printer so that all the computers in the network can print to it. The buttons on the front and the large, lcd panel make it easy for anyone to use without having even read the user manual.
I am using it as a wireless, home printer. There are multiple computers and users in my home - 7+ desktops and laptops - as well as an iPad. We can all print to this printer and have had no problems at all
First thing you will notice is that the box is BIG! It's also relatively heavy and because of the bulky size (it is well padded with packing styrofoam), you may need two people to pick it up and get it out of the box. The Amazon product page lists it as 22 pounds, but this is a...Read more

The Treacherous Three! 3 New Epson Printers Compared! Which One's Right For You? A Publisher's Critical Review.
* A Look At the Printers/ Testing
** The strengths and weaknesses of each
*** Where can I get ink at a (relatively) reasonable price?
* We own a publishing company here in Miami. And, for roughly about 7 years we've owned only Epson. At the time, we moved away from HP because we thought that the Epson printers were improving enough to match HP quality and to beat them economically.
The traditional weakness of Epson had been its photo imaging. We made the decision to go with Epson when they introduced their "Durabright Ink" line of printers and the promise of film-like quality reproduction. While not bad, i.e. passable, it was never quite up to the mark set by the HP line.
That was then.
This year, we're excited by what we've been seeing with Epson. Almost universally with the...Read more

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I have worked with several different types and manufactures of printers over the years and every printer in which I have personally invested has been a home-use inkjet. Each of these printers has had its pros and cons, some distinguishing themselves as standouts for very poor performance while others have shown brightly. This is my first really in-depth exposure to a higher-grade printer outside of a busy office and so far it has been a positive experience.
First off, this is a large printer, a bit bigger than the average inkjet or even all-in-one printer. As it is targeted against color laser printers this should not come as a surprise. Weighing close to 50 lbs. (according to the shipping info) this printer has a lot of heft.
The printer itself comes partially assembled and it takes a little time to put everything right, from attaching the base to removing all of the tape that holds everything in place. The hard part is that this is such a bulky and heavy piece...Read more
