Epson launches new printer

EPSON has announced the launch of its new Replaceable Ink Pack System (RIPS) printer, the WorkForce Pro WF-C869R, that delivers high-speed and high-quality printing while drastically reducing printing costs with its high capacity ink packs for businesses.

The high page yields and extremely low cost per page of the WF-C869R can help businesses significantly minimize running costs when compared against a laser printer.

The WF-C869R printer’s revolutionary Replaceable Ink Packs comes with the option of standard ink packs that deliver uninterrupted printing – up to 22,500 pages in black and 22,000 pages in colour, as well as large ink packs printing up to 86,000 pages in black and 84,000 pages in colour before needing to be replaced, helping businesses save on running costs.

The WF-C869R is equipped with Epson’s PrecisionCore technology to print at fast print speeds of up to 35ppm for both black and colour prints, at 4,800 x 1,200 dpi resolution prints for special media and 600 x 600 dpi for standard prints. As the PrecisionCore printhead does not use heat to print, the WF- C869R has no need for warming up time and has a fast first page out of 6 seconds.

The WorkForce Pro WF-C869R uses less consumables and packaging waste compared to laser printers, which help to maintain office productivity with less printer maintenance and downtime. The ultra long-life consumables of the WFC869R only require periodic replacement and consist of the ink packs, maintenance box and paper pick-up rollers, compared to the laser printer consumables which consist of toner cartridges, photoreceptor, waste toner box, transfer units and fusing units.
