Epson WorkForce Pro - even more profitable office printing
In the post "Epson Printing Factory" and a laser printer, one of Habr's users asked a question about the Epson WorkForce Pro series of printers and MFPs aimed at using in the office. We decided to tell about new devices in more detail, because we believe that they will surely arouse the interest of those who pick up scanning-printing equipment in the office (and want to save on printing).
And here's why: with the release of new devices, Epson offers solutions for all segments of the print market. A print factory is a solution for personal printing or printing in a small office. WorkForce Pro - network printers and MFPs for medium volumes. And very soon, the WorkForce RIPS series of devices will be released for large volumes of business printing (we will tell about them in a separate post).
Those. Now Epson can offer printing solutions for any tasks and areas of business.
First of all - low cost of ownership. The only consumables for these models are only cartridges and waste ink tank. Cartridge yield - up to 4000 pages, waste ink capacity - 50,000 pages.
Many people think that any inkjet printing using cartridges is expensive, but this is not the case with this line of printers and MFPs. The cartridges for the WorkForce Pro series have a large capacity that is significantly larger than in cartridges for home models.

While laser printers require the replacement of cartridges, photo drums, stoves, and other resource parts, which, based on the particular laser printing technology, are larger than those of jet devices, due to the smaller number of resource parts, we win the cost of ownership of printers and MFP series WorkForce Pro. Therefore, with long-term operation, the WorkFocre Pro and RIPS devices are much cheaper in operation and in print.
The devices are designed for high load: 35000 pages per month for A4 models and up to 65000 pages for A3 format. The load at the level of laser devices of similar size.
In addition, not everyone knows that Epson office printers use non-water-soluble pigment inks . Unlike laser printer toners, prints do not peel off paper over time. The ink is not smeared and does not spread under the action of water. Therefore, they are usually recommended for printing documents for archival storage.
In principle, everything that other printers can do: duplex printing, work in wired and wireless networks, print from mobile devices, via the Internet and cloud services, allow installation of high-capacity trays ... In general, they are suitable for solving a wide range of tasks.
By the way, these devices are able to work with very thin paper (64 g / m2), and with very dense media (up to 256 g / m2). Therefore, the list of materials used for printing can be very large in contrast to laser devices.
At cost of ownership, Epson WorkForce Pro series devices are even cheaper than black and white laser printers and MFPs. At the same time they allow you to print color documents, that is, in essence, color printing is obtained as if “as a gift.”
In our Moscow office, for example, these devices completely replaced outdated Epson laser printers, and we still get used to how quickly they begin to print the first sheet, without requiring time to warm up the drum. It seems a trifle, and time and nerves saves.
If you have questions about new models of the series - you can ask them in this post or contact our technical support service.
Soon we will tell about the new Epson WorkForce RIPS series devices, which are designed to print large volumes of documents and fill up with “ ink packs ”, which are enough for just an incredible number of prints (or, more precisely, about 75 thousand from the starter kit).
Dear Habravchane,
Due to the fact that Habrahabr.ru was divided into three resources (HabraHabr, GeekTimes and MegaMozg), Epson's blog moved to Geektimes.ru .
Looking forward to seeing you on our GT blog!
