Epson sets new benchmark for high-volume business inkjet printing
Epson has launched the WorkForce Enterprise AM-C10000 in Australia and New Zealand, a new flagship addition to its business inkjet portfolio, designed specifically for organisations that need to print at scale without accepting the high energy use, maintenance demands and operational complexity traditionally associated with high-
Craig Heckenberg, Managing Director of Epson Australia, says: “Energy consumption is becoming a key consideration for organisations operating multiple devices or investing in higher-speed equipment, where power requirements increase significantly. The WorkForce Enterprise AM-C10000 delivers production-class performance while using substantially less energy than comparable laser technologies. We know from our business customers who have made the switch to inkjet that they see energy consumption reduced by up to 90% versus comparable laser devices, which helps them reduce operating costs and support sustainability goals without compromising productivity. For print service providers, these devices also offer a practical way to improve fleet efficiency and reduce heat generation by shifting everyday print volumes to a lower-energy platform.”
The WorkForce Enterprise AM-C10000 can print speeds of up to 100 ISO pages per minute, duplex scanning at up to 120 images per minute and a first page-out time of approximately 4.7 seconds. At the heart of the inkjet printer is Epson’s Heat-Free printing technology, which eliminates the need for heat during printing, allowing the device to print immediately from sleep mode while using less power and requiring fewer consumable replacements and service interventions over time.
The user experience has also been designed with enterprise consistency in mind. The AM-C10000 shares a common interface across Epson’s broader AM Series and features a large 10.1-inch touchscreen, making it easier for organisations to train users, standardise workflows and manage mixed A3 and A4 fleets.
With the launch of the WorkForce Enterprise AM-C10000, Epson is making a clear statement about where high-volume office printing is heading next: predicting a business environment where efficiency, sustainability, reliability and workflow intelligence are no longer optional extras, but essential requirements.
