SUBANG JAYA, 5 March 2026 – As organisations across Southeast Asia rethink how workplaces operate in a hybrid, cost-conscious and sustainability-driven era, global technology leader Epson is redefining what responsible printing looks like for modern businesses.
Through its Dust-Free, Heat-Free, and Stress-Free approach to business inkjet printing, Epson is helping organisations reduce environmental impact, manage operating costs more effectively and create more efficient, people-centric workplaces.
Supporting cleaner workspaces with Epson’s Dust-Free Technology
Indoor air quality is becoming an increasingly important consideration in high-occupancy office environments. In the latest study conducted by the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology and Testing1, selected Epson models (AM-C4000, AM-C400 and L6490) demonstrated very low levels of detectable fine2 and ultrafine3 dust particle emissions under specific chamber test conditions.
By taking a Dust-Free approach to printing, Epson’s business inkjet technology supports cleaner workspaces where employees can focus on their work with fewer environmental distractions.
Lower energy use and printing that operates Heat-Free
Unlike traditional laser printers, Epson’s business inkjet printers do not require heat during the ink ejection process. This Heat-Free Technology reduces electricity consumption by up to 85%4, while enabling fast start-up with little to no warm-up time.
For businesses managing rising energy costs and sustainability commitments, this allows for more predictable operating expenses without sacrificing performance or output speed.
Stress-Free printing with fewer disruptions, less maintenance
Printing interruptions caused by equipment breakdowns can cost businesses time and reduce efficiency in the workflows. Epson’s inkjet printers use a simplified print system with fewer moving parts, supporting steady operation and reduced maintenance demands.
Compared to traditional printers, Epson printer fleets require up to 59% fewer replacement parts5 during maintenance, helping organisations minimise downtime and keep day-to-day operations running smoothly.
Finding a smart and reliable printing fleet
Beyond individual devices, Epson is also helping organisations take a more strategic view of their overall print environments. Epson’s internal model simulations indicate that right-sizing printer fleets can deliver cost savings of up to 53%6, depending on existing configurations and usage patterns.
Despite changes in work habits, many businesses continue to rely on oversized A3 devices, even though 98% of office print jobs are A47, leading to unnecessary costs, energy use and under-utilised equipment.
To address this, Epson’s Right Fleet Solution offers a structured, consultative process to help organisations align their print infrastructure with actual usage needs.
-
Phase 1 – Free Right Fleet Assessment
Epson experts audit your current print environment to identify underused devices, hidden costs, and energy inefficiencies.
-
Phase 2 – Design an Optimised Fleet
Epson uses real usage data to suggest the best device mix, streamlining operations, cutting costs, and boosting your organisation’s output.

Phase 3 – Right Fleet Proposal
Epson offers a data-driven plan that shows clear cost and electricity savings, making it easy for businesses to justify budget shifts with solid ROI numbers. The plan will consider Epson’s printers with in-built Dust-Free, Heat-Free, and Stress-Free technologies for more productive printing.
“Procurement decisions are shaped by both fiscal discipline and environmental responsibility,” said Jester Cruz, Senior Regional Manager for Corporate Products, Epson Southeast Asia. “Epson’s Dust-Free, Heat-Free, and Stress-Free technologies offer businesses reliable and responsible printing solutions for their people and productive environments, across a range of sectors. Combined with Epson’s Right Fleet Solution consultation, our experts help enterprises improve their workplace environment and optimise the cost of ownership and maintenance. This prevents oversized, underused, or inefficient hardware in the workplace that drains budgets and strains productivity levels. Every organisation is different, and our commitment is to help each one uncover tangible efficiencies and ensure their print environment truly fits their evolving work style.”
1 This test was conducted by Epson Korea at the request of KTL (Korea Testing & Research Institute) to measure the emission of fine and ultrafine dust, ozone, and volatile organic compounds before and after the operation (printing) stage of each product. The test was conducted using the test standards, methods and printing patterns specified in KS X ISO/IEC 28360-1:2018
2 Fine particles: Particles with a diameter between 0.1 µm and 2.5 µm
3 Ultrafine particles: Particles with a diameter of 0.1 µm or less
4 Testing was commissioned by Epson and conducted by Keypoint Intelligence. One specific model was selected from colour laser multi-function printers in the 65–70ppm class. Epson WorkForce Enterprise WF-C21000 with 100ppm (equivalent model in Europe was used during the evaluation). This data is as of September, 2020. Devices were tested in default mode as per Keypoint Intelligence’s proprietary standard energy consumption test methods. Calculations were based on a weekday workload of 2 x 4 hours printing + 16 hours in sleep/standby mode, and weekend energy use of 48 hours in sleep/standby mode. A total of 69 pages of workload test pattern using DOC, XLS, PPT, HTML, PDF files and Outlook email messages were printed six times in each 4-hour printing period.
5 Testing was commissioned by Epson and conducted by Keypoint Intelligence. One competitor model was selected from worldwide best-selling vendor* in the 65ppm and 70ppm colour laser multi-function printer. Epson WorkForce Enterprise WF-C20600 with 60ppm (equivalent model in Europe was used during the evaluation). Consumables and periodic replacement parts required to print 1M pages. The weight includes all used consumables, periodical replacement parts and their packaging. Test printed pattern used was ISO24712.
6 Stated cost savings are derived from Epson’s internal model simulations; actual savings will depend on usage conditions.
7 98% A4 prints (for A3 machines) within the date range of Feb 2023 to June 2025 for average of 1.7k devices connected in Epson Remote System (Epson Southeast Asia Region).
