    Bangalore, 24th

    June 11 - Epson, a world leader in digital imaging, has announced the arrival of its most

    revolutionary printing products in Epson Indias history: the worlds first genuine branded ink tank system

    printers: the Epson L100 Inkjet printer and the L200 Inkjet All-in-One. Created especially for India and a few key

    Southeast Asian countries the products were first introduced in Southeast Asia in late 2010 and have met with

    resounding success. The new printers feature Epson Original Ink Tanks that help users increase productivity and

    save on printing costs like no other printer before.

    For years consumers of Inkjet printers in India have been concerned about the cost of ink cartridges and

    consequently the cost per page while printing. This had led to a not insignificant market for non-genuine

    cartridges, including compatibles, refills and fake cartridges coming into existence. However these non-genuine

    cartridges, while cheaper, are more than likely to spoil the printer, a consequence often discovered too late by

    consumers. In an effort to address the concerns of the extremely cost conscious Indian consumer and to render

    inconsequential the non genuine cartridge market Epson has introduced these two new printers.

    The printers come with a starting set of one black 70ml ink bottle that can print 4000 black pages(1)

    and three

    70ml colour ink cartridges that can print 6500 colour pages(1)

    . With each set of one black and three colour inks,

    the printers offer an extremely low cost per page of only 0.10 Paise per black page and 0.20 Paise per colour page.

    In addition, each new unit comes with two additional black ink bottles to provide customers even greater value.

    The Epson Micro Piezo print head found in the Epson L100 and L200 achieves a maximum print resolution of

    5760 x 1440 dpi and its variable size droplet technology (VSDT) allows the print head to eject ink droplets in

    three sizes. These capabilities ensure the greatest detail and extremely smooth gradations in photographs.

    Epson is always innovating to provide affordable, yet high performance

    printing solutions to help our customers lower their cost of printing, and the

    Epson L100 and L200 are the latest results of our efforts. These printers were

    conceived especially keeping the typical Indian consumers requirements in

    mind. says Samba Moorthy, Senior General Manager, Sales & Marketing at

    Epson India. Therefore, we are proud to present India with the worlds first

    genuine branded ink tank system printers and are confident they will do very

    well here.

    Epson FIT (Fast ink Top up) technology

    The Epson L100 and L200 feature Epsons FIT (Fast Ink Top-up) technology that is made up of three specially

    designed components: 1) the Epson Original Ink Tanks, 2) integrated ink tubes and 3) a special choke valve, all of

    which allow for easy ink refilling as well as convenient transportation of the printer.

    Epson FIT technology: Epson Original Ink Tanks

    The Epson Original Ink Tanks are custom designed to fit neatly to

    the printers chassis and can be conveniently detached. The tanks

    themselves are designed with ink refill openings that face upwardwhen the detachable tank module is placed flat. This system makes

    it very easy for users to refill the system. Each ink tank also has a

    special film covering a part of it that allows air to escape from the

    tank when refilling, or enter the tank when ink is being used up; but

    which also minimizes moisture evaporation.

    Epson FIT technology: Special ink tubes

    The printers ink tubes are neatly integrated into the chassis of the

    printers to ensure smooth delivery of inks and prevent paper jams.

    The ink tubes themselves are made of a special dual layer material

    that prevents evaporation of moisture from the inks.

    Epson FIT technology: Choke Valve

    The choke valve allows users to conveniently cut off ink supply

    from the ink tanks temporarily to prevent backflow of inks during

    transportation of the printer.
