Details of the award-winning Epson products:
Outstanding Personal Colour Inkjet All-in-One: Epson EcoTank L6490
With the ink tank being strategically positioned at the front of the printer with a clear view of the ink levels, the new design provides easy access for refilling. As compared with laser printing, Epson inkjet technology helps keep energy levels low without the need for any heat during printing process, providing a cost-efficient environmentally friendly office printing solution.
“The Epson EcoTank L6490 offers low-volume environments strong performance and impressive usability,” said Kaitlin Shaw, Associate Director of A4 Hardware at Keypoint Intelligence. “Thanks to a cartridge-free ink tank system, total cost of ownership is significantly lower than the average of competitive models (based on US pricing). Flawless reliability, strong user-friendliness, and a low user intervention rate means users will have more time for the most important tasks. Flexible mobile and cloud support make it easy and convenient for users to print and scan no matter where they are. Our lab technicians were also impressed with how vivid and consistent the device’s colour output was.”
The Epson WorkForce DS-530II Scanner allows a dedicated focus on work that matters with high-speed and all-purpose function. Designed to handle a wide variety of media, it offers the ability to scan different mediums from fragile paper documents to plastic cards, and even thick books with its flatbed option. Powered by fast scanning speeds, paper protection and image sensor glass dirt detection functions, the versatile workforce scanner promises high performance yields and improved efficiency.

The Epson WorkForce DS-770II Scanner allows streamlined productivity with high volume, high quality and high-speed scanning perfection. Capable of scanning a myriad of media from fragile and A3 documents (with a carrier sheet) to plastic cards, the DS-770II also allows scanning of thick objects such as books with its flatbed option, at an even faster speed. Boasting sustained durability and a large-scale volume of up to 7,000 pages per day, the DS-770II also offers impressive media handling with automatic document feeding of up to 100 sheets and size recognition to enable efficient workflow management.
