Epson’s AM-C400 and AM-C550 Heat-Free inkjets are recognized for their productivity, reliability and environmental credentials, positioning the WorkForce Enterprise series as the industry’s leading solution
Epson has once again proven its leadership in professional printing, earning a prestigious five-star rating from DataMaster Lab in 2025 for its WorkForce Enterprise AM-C400 and AM-C550 printers. These top-tier ratings reflect the company’s ongoing commitment to delivering high-performance, energy-efficient, and reliable print solutions.
DataMaster Lab, a respected independent testing organization, has been evaluating office and production print devices since 2009. Their assessments are grounded in real-world business scenarios and strictly follow international ISO standards, ensuring that all devices are tested under rigorous, fair conditions.
Exceptional Reliability and Energy Efficiency
In its evaluation, DataMaster Lab praised the consistent performance and reliability of the AM-C400 and AM-C550, highlighting their ability to maintain steady operation throughout extended testing. A standout feature was Epson’s Heat-Free Technology, which enables these printers to operate using significantly less power compared to traditional laser models—supporting environmentally conscious business practices.
Impressive Productivity and Innovation
Productivity was another major highlight. Both printers achieved 100% productivity in duplex (double-sided) printing and maintained 94% (AM-C400) and 92% (AM-C550) productivity in workgroup mode. Notably, they are the first A4 printers equipped with Epson’s new C-shape paper path, which allows full-speed, double-sided printing in a compact form—an innovation recognized by DataMaster Lab as a breakthrough in space-saving office solutions.
Lower Maintenance, Greater Value
Beyond performance, the AM-C400 and AM-C550 stood out for their remarkable efficiency in consumable use. The AM-C400 required only one-third as many consumable changes compared to similar printers, while the AM-C550 needed just half, minimizing downtime and reducing operational costs for busy workplaces.
In terms of sustainability, the lab noted that these printers consumed only about one-third of the energy used by comparable models. Their ability to print double-sided at the same speed as single-sided also contributes to significant paper savings, further enhancing their eco-friendly credentials.
A Testament to Epson’s Commitment to Innovation
“We are thrilled to receive five-star reviews from DataMaster Lab for our WorkForce Enterprise AM-C400 and AM-C550 printers,” said Jester Cruz, Senior Regional Manager for Corporate Products, Epson Southeast Asia. “This recognition affirms our commitment to innovation and quality. Epson’s Heat-Free Technology has redefined printing by combining exceptional productivity, outstanding reliability, and significant reductions in energy use and operational costs. We’re proud to support businesses as they pursue smarter, more sustainable practices.”
With these accolades, Epson continues to set new standards in the industry, providing solutions that align with modern business needs—efficient, sustainable, and built to perform.
