The HP OfficeJet 6310 All-in-One has most of the basic features needed by a small office–fax, built-in networking, and an automatic document feeder (ADF)–along with a few bonus features, including handy media card slots. It also lacks some of the features that would make it a great small office machine, however, such as the ability to send fax blasts on the fly and expandable paper handling. Additionally, it suffers from middling print quality. The less expensive Canon Pixma MP530 trounces the OfficeJet 6310 in terms of task speed and print quality but lacks the media card slots and networkability. The slightly more expensive Canon Pixma MP830 is also faster, has somewhat better with print quality, and includes media card slots but, unfortunately, also lacks networking. (Both Canons have built-in duplexers.) So, which to choose? If you value fast print speeds and can’t live without media card slots, go for the Pixma MP830. If you want the best print quality, stick with the MP530. You can network either of them with a router that has a built-in print server, and both offer faster print speeds and better print quality than the OfficeJet 6310.
Design
The OfficeJet 6310’s small form factor is a perfect fit for space-challenged homes and small offices. It measures just 18 inches wide, 15.3 inches deep, and 9.3 inches tall, and it weighs a mere 12 pounds. The flatbed scanner is big enough for originals up to A4 in size, but the built-in automatic document feeder lets you scan legal-size originals. The ADF can hold up to 35 pages, great for batch scanning, copying, or faxing.
Starting from the top of the machine, there’s a 35-sheet Auto-Document Feeder (ADF), which adds surprising little to the height of the machine, due to its near-flat layout. Lift the ADF and you have a standard flatbed scanner; lift the whole of the scanner section and you can get at the twin ink cartridges. At the bottom of the front panel on the left is a set of four memory card slots and one for PictBridge. Sticking out from the front of the machine is the control panel.
There are quite a lot of controls, because the machine has full fax facilities, as well as copy, scan and print. A two-line by 16-character, back-lit LCD printer error display provides status messages and instructions but, of course, no way of previewing pictures from a memory card. To do that, you have to print a thumbnail sheet.
The two Vivera ink cartridges, one for black and the other tri-colour, clip into their carriers and apart from loading paper, that’s the only physical installation required. The OfficeJet 6310 comes with IRIS OCR software, as well as a selection of HP’s own printing, scanning and photo management applications.
