Los Alamitos, CA (Aug. 28, 2024)<\/em> \u2013 Epson today announced Eureka College has chosen Epson business printing solutions to replace its fleet of laser printers deployed across campus. Following its extensive search for a print fleet with specific environmental benefits, Eureka College determined Epson\u2019s printers met and exceeded its criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eureka College, a leading Illinois liberal arts institution, is driven by its mission to be a regional model for institutional sustainability, and its core values revolve around increasing equity and sustainability on campus. Epson was chosen for its proven environmental value proposition and impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs part of the curriculum, students in our environmental science and business programs were tasked with evaluating the environmental benefits of the prospective printer solutions. The goal was to determine whether the claims were just marketing promises or if the products truly aligned with our sustainability goals,\u201d said Dr. Ann Fulop, provost and VP of academic affairs at Eureka College. \u201cThe students analyzed brand and product messaging, qualified environmental claims \u2013 including electricity savings estimates \u2013 and compiled accounting projections based on potential environmental impacts and savings considering the school\u2019s printing habits and requirements.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eureka College has deployed a fleet of WorkForce Enterprise AM-C5000 Color MFPs and WorkForce Pro WF-C579R Workgroup Color MFPs with Replaceable Ink Pack Systems. The AM-C5000 has the lowest power consumption in its class, up to 55% lower than color laser printers.1<\/sup> The WF-C579R uses a Replaceable Ink Pack System with extra high-capacity packs that can deliver enough ink to print up to 50,000 ISO pages black\/20,000 ISO pages color before changing the packs.2<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEpson stood out because of the environmental benefits associated with its PrecisionCore Heat-Free technology and design simplicity, meaning limited maintenance parts, and low waste and energy usage,\u201d said Dr. Fulop. \u201cI was surprised to see that I could get all the sustainability benefits without an increase to my budget.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are proud to exceed Dr. Fulop and the Eureka College team’s expectations. The PrecisionCore technology not only aligns with the college’s sustainability goals and helps reduce plastic toner waste but also provides user-friendly technology, engineered for reliability to the students, faculty and administration at a very low operational cost,\u201d said Kirk Taylor, VP of Sales, City Blue Technologies, an Epson BusinessFirst partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to an article by Keypoint Intelligence, an increasing number of businesses are evaluating brands\u2019 sustainability initiatives \u2013 how the brand, its solutions and services impact the planet \u2013 as part of their purchasing process. Businesses today are searching for printing solutions that ensure reduced machine downtime, less waste and low energy consumption for savings on energy bills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMore and more organizations are looking to reduce the amount of waste they generate. They realize that laser printers consume many bulky maintenance parts that could end up in landfills,\u201d said Elliot Williams, director of product marketing, Business Imaging, Epson America, Inc. \u201cEpson is committed to helping organizations like Eureka College reduce their environmental footprint and double down on the future of printing, supporting their organizational and sustainability initiatives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Epson printing solutions are engineered with PrecisionCore Heat-Free technology, a simple, smart and clean solution that delivers outstanding quality with low waste, to help businesses meet their sustainability goals without compromising reliability, cost or productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
