Epson Colour RIPS products

RIPS stands for Replaceable Ink Pack System, and it exists for offices tired of touching the printer.

Instead of cartridges, these machines take large sealed ink packs holding enough ink for tens of thousands of pages. In practice an office can run for a year or more between ink changes rather than swapping cartridges every few weeks. Fewer interventions, fewer part numbers to stock, fewer mornings when printing stops because nobody reordered.

That matters most where a machine is shared and nobody owns it. Schools, surgeries, depots, busy offices with no IT support.

The colour range covers both formats. A4 WorkForce Pro models handle standard business documents. The A3 EM-C81xR machines take plans, spreadsheets and anything you currently reduce to fit.

Being inkjet rather than laser, they draw markedly less power, need no warm up time, and have no drum, fuser or transfer belt to replace. Colour costs less per page than the laser equivalent.

Machines at this level are specified rather than picked off a shelf, and several are quoted individually. Call 01903 692 222 with your monthly volumes and we will size one properly.
