Epson Workforce 610 Wireless Color Inkjet All-in-One Printer (C11CA50201)

Sunday, January 10th, 2010


This All-In-One printer has lots of features and prints with good quality. Also prints quickly for the type of printer it is. The wireless set up was a bit difficult and was a bit time consuming. I called Epson customer service, and they were very nice but unable to resolve the issue. I think it was a computer networking issue (not the printer). Therefore, I ended up setting it up as a ad hoc (peer-to-peer network) which works fine with all the laptops. I can print, scan, and even fax from all the laptops. If you have trouble setting up the wireless through your current router, consider the add manaul feature. Read the entire networking set-up instruction manual to see what would work best for your networking needs before you install. I was impressed with the price for all its abilities.

Epson Extra High Capacity Black Ink for the Epson WorkForce 40 and WorkForce 600 Printers

Epson Extra High Capacity Black Ink for the Epson WorkForce 40 and WorkForce 600 Printers


What can be said about an ink cartridge? Yes, it is black. The Epson instruction sheet that came with the printer does not have information on cartridge replacement. However, one can go to the Epson web site and obtain/print the instructions. Seems like nothing you buy anymore has the good stuff like back in the good old days. No more manuals, no more cds/dvds, not even for the operating system. Now all you get is preloaded crapware. But, I digress. The ink cartridge is easy to replace. Whether it has extra high capacity black ink as advertised is anyone's guess.

Great source for hard-to-find product
No retailers in my area carry this high capacity cartridge. This is my second order. I'll be back for more. Hope you continue to carry these.


Performs well w/ Epson Workforce 600
This ink performs well on my Epson Workforce 600. I've had no problems with it.


Best Printer I've had, but it won't let you only use black ink
I use the all-in-one for scanning and for printing documents. I do not print pictures. I thought I would only have to replace the black ink because I set the printer to do black only.

That's when I found out the printer ignores this choice. I contacted those in charge and was informed that all the colors are used to keep the heads "primed" and ready for use.

While the printer is wonderful, the rate it uses the colored ink (when you've chosen to use black only) astounds me. So far, I've used two high capacity blacks and without printing in color once; the blue and yellow are nearly gone and the pink is half gone. I was also informed you DO have to replace the colors. You can't just leave them there as empties or you can't print at all.

When I bought the printer, I didn't expect to pay for ink I never used. I wish they made a printer that does black only. I checked. They don't.


Epson WorkForce 610 user review
Print quality could be better. IMO, HP has better print quality, but I like this printer's other charc mentioned earlier, e.g., speed, ease of use, features, etc. Overall, I'm satisfied.

Epson WorkForce 600 Wireless All-in-One Printer (Black) (C11CA18201)


I received the all-in-one printer quickly, in great condition, great packaging, which was fantastic! I was unable to setup the wireless unit without my husband's helps due to a laptop/networking issue. He setup the wireless "wifi" without too much difficulty. This is a refurbished unit and aside from a few, very little scuff marks, the unit looks brand new. Received the unit with very little black ink, so as far as print quality at this time, it's hard to tell. They sent a test print page to show how it should print, which looks very nice, but I have yet to see it. Just ordered ink online directly from [...]; cheaper than local stores even with shipping! Time (and ink) will tell :)

rip-off ink
I've had no problems with the WorkForce 600 itself, but Epson's ink prices are too high. It can cost about .00 to replace standard capacity ink cartridges, so shop around. (The WorkForce 610 uses the same cartridges.) The scanner is acceptable for my purposes.
