Epson wins Energy Efficiency award

January 15, 2019

The OEM has received the honour as part of the FY2018 Grand Prize for Excellence in Energy Efficiency and Conservation awards programme.

Triumphing in the Product Category & Business Model Category, Epson claimed The Director-General’s Prize, The Agency for Natural Resources and Energy, for its LX-10000F series and LX-7000F series of high-speed linehead inkjet multifunction printers, sold in the Japanese market.

The award was sponsored by the Energy Conservation Centre, Japan, with support from the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.

According to the OEM, “the award-winning printers demonstrate superior energy efficiency, using only a fraction of the energy of typical A3 colour office laser MFPs.”  They also “easily” conform to the requirements of the International ENERGY STAR Programme, and their maximum power consumption is constrained, allowing them to be used even in the event of a disaster when electricity supply is limited.

In addition, high-capacity ink cartridges and infrequent replacement of limited lifetime parts mean reduced maintenance and greater resource conservation. “The consumables and limited lifetime parts used in these printers have to be replaced only about half as often as those in a typical laser printer, based on a calculation of one million prints,” said Epson. “The volume of waste is also about 50 percent lower.”

Koichi Kubota, Representative Director, Senior Managing Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer at Epson’s Printing Solutions Operations Division, said: “We have been working hard to increase office energy efficiency through inkjet innovation. This prize is tremendously encouraging, and we intend to continue to provide innovative products and services to meet the needs of environmentally aware users.”

The OEM adds that its goal is to become “an indispensable company […] committed to openness, customer satisfaction and sustainability.”

“We tackle customer needs, address societal challenges, and create unique environmental value through our business activities with the aim of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations and creating a better and more sustainable future,” Epson declared.
