Brother's MFC-J6935DW, on the other hand, beat the WF-7710 by almost 5ppm.įinally, to test how quickly the WF-7710 prints photographs, I ran our two color-rich and highly detailed 4-by-6-inch snapshots through it several times, clocking and averaging the results. The WF-7720 and the HP 7720, for example, scored about the same, and the HP 7740 was 2.5ppm faster. That's about what I would expect for this class of inkjet AIO. When I combined these scores with those from printing our several colorful graphics- and image-laden PDF, Excel, and PowerPoint business documents, the Epson WF-7710's score dropped by half, to 7.2ppm. That's close to the WF-7720's score (which, at 14.4ppm, isn't a screamer, either), about 9ppm slower than the HP 7740 and the HP 7720, and about 2ppm pages behind the Brother MFC-J6935DW. When printing our simply formatted monochrome 12-page Microsoft Word document, it scored 14.7ppm, or 3.3ppm slower than its rating.

I tested it over Ethernet on our standard Intel Core i5-equipped testbed PC running Windows 10 Professional. Better Than Acceptable PerformanceĮpson rates the WF-7710 at 18 pages per minute (ppm) for single-sided monochrome pages, and 10ppm for color, which is on par with many of its competitors, except that in this case our test unit had a little trouble making its rating (as did the WF-7720). If all those options aren't enough, you can also print from and scan to a USB thumb drive the USB port is located on the right-front section of the chassis, beside the paper tray. In addition, you can connect to several other cloud sites via iPrint and workflow profiles on the control panel. Wi-Fi Direct and NFC are peer-to-peer network protocols for connecting the printer to your mobile devices without either it or them being part of a local network.Ī few mobile apps in the company's Epson Connect bundle are included: Email Print, Epson Remote Print, Epson iPrint, and Epson Cloud Print, as well as built-in support for a few third-party mobile solutions, such as Apple AirPrint and Google Cloud Print. Like its more-expensive two-drawer sibling, the WF-7710 comes with just about every connectivity option available, including Ethernet 10/100bps, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, connecting to a single PC via USB, and near-field communication, or NFC. The larger screen, of course, makes poking options on the screen easier, and the entire control panel itself has a much nicer, high-tech look and feel about it. Some of the few improvements Epson made from the WF-7610, which the WF-7710 replaces, is the larger (4.3-inch, up from 3.5-inch) touch screen, and a reworked, more attractive control panel. Those extra inches provide a substantially larger print area for your spreadsheets and promotional flyers. (Both the HP 7740 and the Brother MFC-J6935DW also come with single-pass duplexing ADFs.) All these ADFs hold pages up to tabloid size, except the 7720's, which supports only large as legal size.Īn advantage of Epson wide-format printers is that most of them print at the larger 13-by-19-inch format, whereas most others top out at 11 by 17 inches. In addition, the WF-7710 comes with a single-pass auto-duplexing 35-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF) for sending two-sided multipage documents to the scanner. That's 10,000 pages less than the HP 7720, the HP 7740, and the Brother MFC-J6935DW. The WF-7710's monthly duty cycle is 20,000 pages (same as the WF-7720).

The Brother MFC-J6935DW, on the other hand, supports 600 sheets, from three sources, while the HP OfficeJet Pro 7740 holds 500 and the HP OfficeJet Pro 7720 holds 501. It's essentially the same printer as its sibling, the WorkForce WF-7720, minus one 250-sheet paper tray. Measuring 13.4 by 22.3 by 32.2 inches (HWD) and weighing 40.8 pounds, the WF-7710 ($349.90 at Amazon) can hold 251 sheets via a 250-sheet paper tray up front and a 1-sheet override tray on the back. It's worth considering the WF-7710 if you need to print super-tabloid size pages (the Brother model can only handle up to tabloid size), but otherwise, the Epson is a perfectly good printer that faces some very stiff competition. However, the WF-7710 costs significantly more to use than our Editors' Choice Brother MFC-J6935DW, and its paper capacity is less than half. It also scans, copies, and faxes up to tabloid size (11 by 17 inches). The Epson WorkForce WF-7710 Wide-Format All-in-One Printer ($249.99) is a super-tabloid all-in-one (AIO) capable of borderless prints up to 13 by 19 inches.
