Epson America Inc., a provider of business imaging solutions, has unveiled its Replaceable Ink Pack System for the new WorkForce Pro WF-R8590 and WF-R5690 multifunction printers and WF-R5190 printer. The ink pack system enables the printers to deliver up to 75,000 printed pages in both black and color before the ink needs to be replaced.
“Epson’s revolutionary approach transforms office printing by allowing businesses to focus on running their business, not on managing printer supplies,” says Larry Trevarthen, director, Business Imaging, Epson America Inc. “Epson’s new printing solutions allow IT managers to bring affordable color printing to remote offices and workgroups while reducing the hassles normally associated with printer management.”
The WorkForce Pro WF-R8590 multifunction printer is the company’s fastest business color printing solution, offering print speeds of 24 ISO ppm (black and color), an 1830-sheet maximum capacity supporting up to A3 (tabloid size) media, and includes ink supplies able to deliver up to 75,000 printed pages. The WorkForce Pro WF-R5690 multi-function printer and WF-R5190 printer deliver print speeds up to 20 ISO ppm (black and color), a 580-sheet capacity, and also includes the ink to print up to 50,000 before requiring replacement. The new WorkForce Pro models feature Epson PrecisionCore technology, built-in connectivity features including Ethernet, USB, wireless b/g/n and Wi-Fi Direct to print from tablets and smartphones, and include remote printing and access to Cloud.
Additional features include IT tools such as remote setup and custom settings for multiple printers, and support for popular security protocols to protect confidential documents. The printers also support PCL and Adobe PostScript.
