LEVEL UP ON ECO-CONSCIOUSNESS WITH EPSON BUSINESS INKJET PRINTERS 
Not all printers are the same. Laser and inkjet printers may look the same on the outside, but it is what’s on the inside that counts. The laser printing process is complicated and comprises many steps such as preheating, charging, exposure, development, transfer and fusing. Fine toner powder is transferred to a sheet of paper through contact and fused with a combination of heat and pressure. In contrast, Epson's inkjet printers are simple, non-contact systems. They deposit ink droplets on the media, without the use of heat.
 
 
SWITCH TO EPSON HEAT-FREE INKJET PRINTERS TO ENJOY ADVANCED CUSTOMER BENEFITS
 
  • Save time with consistent high speed printing
    No heat is required to warm-up, allowing the printer to print immediately. Consistent high speed printing up to 40 pages per minute is possible, even for high coverage documents.

  • Less power consumption saves energy and money
    With no fuser unit to heat, reduce energy consumption by up to 85%* compared to laser printers, resulting in cost savings for electricity bills.

  • Fewer replacement parts, lower environmental impact
    Uses up to 59% fewer replacement parts** than laser printers. No heat damage to the printhead.

  • Less intervention increases productivity
    With fewer parts to replace and printheads that last longer, the amount of intervention is decreased, providing improved reliability and reduced downtime.

PRECISIONCORE HEAT-FREE TECHNOLOGY
PrecisionCore is the next-generation inkjet printhead technology driving Epson’s inkjet resolution. It merges advanced key component technologies, state-of-the-art MEMS* fabrication and high-precision assembly processes honed over decades. 
 
Epson's proprietary Micro Piezo inkjet technology doesn't use heat in the ink ejection process, and it's this Heat-Free Technology that separates our printers from the competition. Epson’s Heat-Free printers does not require heat in the ink ejection process. Instead pressure is applied to the Piezo element, which flexes backwards and forwards firing the ink from the printhead. 
 
*MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems): Devices possessing mechanically driven elements, manufactured through the application of semiconductor processing technology.
 
PRECISIONCORE MICROTFP PRINT CHIP
MicroTFP print chips are the core element of PrecisionCore Heat-Free Technology. By achieving higher precision and greater miniaturization in Epson’s advanced thin film piezo (TFP) technology, the basic performance of this printhead module has been radically improved, and application to a wider range of uses made possible.
The thin film piezo element that drives ink ejection is approximately 1 micron thin (one-hundredth the thickness of a human hair). By closely controlling the voltage applied to such piezo elements, it is possible to fire up to 50,000 shots of ink per second from a single nozzle, to precise positions and in the necessary quantities.
 
  • PrecisionCore Linehead
    By optimally arraying 30 of these MicroTFP print chips in a diagonal configuration, Epson has developed a compact linehead that boasts about 28,000 active nozzles. This size-conscious core device contributes to reduced space requirements of the product itself, and successfully enables high-speed performance of printing up to 40 pages per minute, within a compact design.
 
CUTTING-EDGE INNOVATION TO ACHIEVE MINIATURISATION OF FOOTPRINT
 
  • New Paper Path Design for Consistent High-speed Printing in Compact Footprint
    The new A3 colour Linehead Inkjet printer series realises a simpler C-shaped paper route path to deliver efficient and consistent high-speed printing. It can print up to 40 pages per minute in both simplex and duplex printing while keeping a compact printer design.
 
  • Superb Print Quality with Lower Cost, Save Time on Maintenance
    Achieve vibrant, water- and smudge-resistant prints with pigment inks. Save on printing costs and reduce downtime with high capacity ink cartridges. Print up to 50,000 pages in black or 30,000 pages in colour without interruption. Periodic parts are available for user self maintenance to achieve maximum up time.

  • Reduce Power Consumption By Switching to Epson Heat-Free Printers
    Epson Heat-Free Technology uses less power than laser technology because it does not use heat during the printing process. As Epson inkjet printers have no fuser unit to heat, this results in significantly less energy consumption.
 
  • Save Energy And Money With Low Power Consumption
    In today’s offices, only central air conditioning and lighting consume more energy than office automation equipment. In fact, printers and MFPs account for as much as 10%** of electric consumption. Replacing laser printers with Epson WorkForce Enterprise can cut printing-related energy significantly. Lower energy consumption also reduces environmental impact because it reduces CO2 emissions.

DELIVER AN EFFICIENT, USER-FRIENDLY AND ECO-CONSCIOUS OPERATION
 
  • Fewer Replacement Parts, Lower Environmental Impact
    Thanks to Heat-Free Technology, Epson inkjet printers use fewer parts that need replacing than in a laser printer, and our printheads are not a consumable. This reduces the environmental burden of manufacturing and recycling the additional resources.
 
  • Certified Environmental Performance
    Epson is committed to developing environmentally conscious products, which means that sustainability is considered from conception to completion. Our Epson WorkForce Enterprise Printers comply with some of the world’s most stringent environmental certification standards.

    We offer sustainable innovations because we recognise that the choices we make as organisations, individuals or a society will be essential to our shared success.

**Japan Eco Mark has been approved for AM-C4000/C5000/C6000.

  • Less Intervention Increases Productivity
    The Heat-Free structure of Epson inkjet printers means that there are fewer parts that can fail, which reduces the amount of intervention required. As a result, Epson inkjet printers offer improved reliability and significantly reduced downtime.
 
  • Stress-Free Operability
    Epson WorkForce Enterprise printers are perfect for the office, reliably delivering prints at high speeds of up to 40ppm while occupying minimal space. The printers come with space and user-friendly configurations such as a hassle-free front-loading design, transparent ink window, and customisable layout.

Notes:

*Testing was commissioned by Epson and conducted by Keypoint Intelligence. One specific model was selected from color laser multi-function printers in the 65-70ppm class. Epson WorkForce Enterprise WF-C21000 with 100ppm (equivalent model in Europe was used during the evaluation). This data is as of September, 2020. Devices were tested in default mode as per Keypoint Intelligence’s proprietary standard energy consumption test methods. Calculations were based on a weekday workload of 2 x 4 hours printing + 16 hours in sleep/standby mode, and weekend energy use of 48 hours in sleep/standby mode. A total of 69 pages of workload test pattern using DOC, XLS, PPT, HTML, PDF files and Outlook email messages were printed six times in each 4-hour printing period.

** Testing was commissioned by Epson and conducted by Keypoint Intelligence. One competitor model was selected from worldwide best-selling vendor^ in the 65ppm and 70ppm colour laser multi-function printer. Epson Work Force Enterprise WF-C20600 with 60ppm (equivalent model in Europe was used during the evaluation). Consumables and periodic replacement parts required to print 1M pages. The weight includes all used consumables, periodical replacement parts and their packaging. Test printed pattern used was ISO24712.
