For comparison, the Epson WorkForce 520 printed a 10-page plain black-text Word document at 12.51 pages per minute (ppm), more than seven times faster than the Office Hero 6.1's disappointing 4.94ppm.Kodak Office Hero 6.1 All-in-One Printer Software Driver for Microsoft Windows and Macintosh Operating Systems. The disparity is usually negligible unless you're printing long documents, but the Kodak's speeds dropped down to a rate that may bottleneck fast-paced offices. The Office Hero 6.1 performed at a noticeably slower rate than the average printer in the $200 price bracket.

Kodak provides the e-mail address for your particular device during the wireless setup process, and the virtual instructions walk you through it step by step. When you send an e-mail to the printer, you can choose to either attach a compatible file (Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Excel, PDF, text files, BMP, PNG, GIF, TIFF) for formatted documents or just paste a body of text in plain or HTML form into the body of the e-mail. It's designed to release users from the shackles of the print driver by assigning a unique e-mail address to every connected printer, which you can use to send jobs directly from any connected device. The other side of the Hero 6.1's cloud printing is Kodak Email Print.

Google Cloud Print is a free utility that lets multiple users share your printer over the Web with a simple username registration and a compatible device running Google. Printing from the cloud is perhaps the most convenient feature of the Hero 6.1, and you get two simple ways to print from any computer with an Internet connection. Though the application can't be used for heavy photo editing, you can specify the print quality and canvas size from 2x3 inches all the way up to the standard 8.5x11. The Office Hero is also accessible remotely using the free Kodak Pic Flick App for iOS, Android, and BlackBerry devices. Unfortunately, Kodak doesn't provide this cable in the box. It's just as easy to connect without WPS, however, but you'll need to create an ad hoc connection using the USB cable first. Headaches usually arrive quickly when it's time to connect a printer to a wireless router, but I'm impressed with Kodak's streamlined handshaking-the printer is set up for the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) computing standard, which reduces the process to a push of a button, if you have a compatible wireless router.

You can hook it up to an office network using wired Ethernet or wirelessly via its 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi server. Kodak offers several ways to print to the Hero 6.1 aside from the standard USB connection. That's why it makes more fiscal sense for a photographer wanting to print snapshots to get a printer with five or even six individual ink tanks. Keep in mind that all five inks are bundled into one cartridge, so you'll need to buy a new one when the first color runs out. Kodak claims its ink gives the lowest cost per page in the industry, and my calculations based on the company's XL-capacity cartridges corroborates those claims at just 2.4 cents per black page and 7.2 cents for a page of color. The Office Hero 6.1 uses the same model 10B and 10C cartridges as the ESP series, with a single tank for black ink and a separate five-ink cartridge of pigment color. That said, amateur photographers hunting for the right device to materialize their photos can spend the same and get more photo-friendly features like siloed ink cartridges and a separate photo paper tray from Canon and Hewlett-Packard. At the $200 range, I expected a dual paper tray supporting two separate media sizes, but the Hero 6.1 has only the single feeder with adjustable plastic paper guides. The main paper tray for everyday printing rests at the bottom of the unit and can hold up to 200 sheets of plain paper, or 70 sheets of photo paper. Kodak estimates that the Hero 6.1 can handle about 12,000 printed pages a month before it loses steam, which should be more than enough for SMBs and home offices with moderate to large output. The autoduplexer that flips pages over for double-sided printing adds a bulky protrusion to the back of the printer, but the extra weight is offset by its economic benefits for offices that print more than the usual amount. A matte black paint job covers the rest of the chassis and the contours of the angled display contrast nicely with the short autodocument feeder up top that can automate scans or copies with its 35-sheet paper tray.

Kodak designed the Hero series to live in a professional office environment, so the Hero 6.1's exterior looks more polished than the ESP line, with a small red strip distinguishing the line between the control panel and the hidden scanner bay.
