Epson has released the Stylus SX600FW, which it describes as a high-speed printer, scanner, copier with fax and built-in Wi-Fi and Ethernet networking capability.

It has a 30-page automatic document feeder, large LCD screen and individual ink cartridges, so that users need only replace the empty colour cartridge. Replacements start at €9.99 RRP.

Intended primarily for home use, the device’s integrated Wi-Fi lets users connect to a wireless network and serve as a hub for wireless printing and scanning for a whole household.

The 6.3cm LCD screen is used to view and print photos, send faxes and make quick copies, among other PC-free functions. PictBridge and memory card reader are also included, for printing from a compatible digital camera.

The Stylus uses Epson’s DuraBrite ink technology to provide high-quality documents and lab-quality photos that are water-, smudge- and fade-resistant, according to the maker.

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software is provided by Abbyy FineReader for scanning and editing text documents.

* Wi-Fi for wireless printing and scanning
