Overview

Super high yield printing

Thanks to our unique RIPS technology, print up to 86,000 pages in mono or 50,000 in colour without changing the ink supplies.¹ This means there is less need for user intervention, increasing productivity and reducing waste consumption.

Precision Core Heat-free technology

Epson Heat-Free Technology requires no heat to warm up when it is switched on or woken from sleep, which significantly reduces energy consumption and therefore saves money. With no warm up time, these devices can deliver a fast FPOT of 5.5 seconds.

Improved Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)

Our ADF provides market-leading thin paper support, with a compact, robust design and improved scanning speed and quality.

Key Features
