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.

HEAT-FREE TECHNOLOGY
The WorkForce Enterprise AM-C400/C550 printers not only consume less power but also require fewer replacement parts and consumables compared to similar laser printer models, thereby minimising their environmental impact without sacrificing output quality. Additionally, unlike traditional laser copiers/printers, these models produce no heat, thanks to Epson’s PrecisionCore Heat-Free printhead technology, further enhancing their environmental benefits.

PrecisionCore Linehead
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 60,000 shots of ink per second from a single nozzle, to precise positions and in the necessary quantities. 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 60 pages per minute, within a compact design.

Switch to Epson Heat-Free Business Inkjet Printers
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 does not use heat in the ink ejection process. Instead, it relies on Heat-Free Technology, which sets our printers apart from the competition. This technology works by applying pressure to the Piezoelement, causing it to flex backwards and forwards, thereby firing the ink from the printhead.

A4 Mid-Range Printing Redefined for Exceptional Compactness and Speed.
The WorkForce Enterprise AM-C400/C550 models redefine office printing as Epson’s first-ever A4 linehead inkjet models, boasting remarkable print speeds of 40ppm and 55ppm respectively. These compact printers are designed to deliver reliable, high-speed printing while occupying minimal space, making them perfect for office environments. They come equipped with user- and space-friendly features, including a hassle-free front-loading design, a transparent ink window, and a customisable layout, ensuring efficiency and convenience in every print task.

 

New Paper Path Design for Consistent High-speed Printing in Compact Footprint

* 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.
 
*Replacement cartridge yields are based on ISO/IEC 24711 tests in Default Mode printing continuously. Cartridge yields vary considerably for reasons including images printed, print settings, temperature and humidity. Yields may be lower when printing infrequently or predominantly with one ink colour. All ink colours are used for printing and printer maintenance, and all colours have to be installed for printing. For print quality, part of the ink from the included cartridges is used for printer setup and a variable amount of ink remains in the cartridges after the “replace cartridge” signal. For more information, visit www.epson.com.sg/inkinfo.
 
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.
