Epson launches its most sustainable business printer range ever
New AM-Series fully commits to sustainable Heat-Free inkjet technology

SYDNEY, 22 March 2023 – Furthering its commitment to sustainability, Epson has launched the most seriously sustainable, feature-rich range of business colour copiers in its history – the WorkForce Enterprise AM-Series – all of which have its award-winning, patented Piezo Heat-Free inkjet technology at their core.

The new 40-60ppm multi-function devices bring Epson's most successful static line-head technology to the mass market enhancing the company's offering and ensuring end users have the best product fit while still addressing and staying true to the company's sustainability agenda.

Inkjet technology uses one quarter of the energy compared to laser¹ and with a compact footprint and a lightweight design, these products help limit resources used during production and shipping. This reduced size also means they easily integrate into any office and save on space. High yield ink cartridges also reduce material usage, office disruptions, shipping, storage and end-user management of consumables.

The new WorkForce Enterprise AM-Series represents a significant shift in Epson's printing strategy, fully supporting the company's commitment to sustainability and coincides with Epson's recent announcement of its ¥100 billion (AUD$1 billion) investment into sustainable innovation.

The launch of these products accentuates laser technology's limited ability to make significant steps towards improved sustainability due to its ongoing requirement for heat during the print process and relative increased energy use.

This combined with fewer moving and consumable parts to replace over the lifetime of the printer compared to lasers, also means service and maintenance needs of Epson inkjets are substantially reduced, along with resulting printer downtime improving productivity and user satisfaction.

The new WorkForce Enterprise AM-Series now completes Epson's business inkjet line up from small workgroup units to high-speed production machines – meaning that no matter the business function or print demand, there is a product that suits.

With a full range of support from Managed Print Service and Print Admin packages through to Remote Service solutions, these products truly enable a low maintenance, high quality, reliable, sustainable print system.
