3 Key Innovations

Alongside its core capabilities, Epson’s WorkForce Enterprise WF-C20590 contains a number of innovative components that make it an excellent choice for high-volume printing environments.

1. Enterprise Security
Every Epson MFP printer is secured using a host of data encryption features, but this device is particularly insulated against unauthorized access. Network administrators can fully customize the security protocols to suit unique operational requirements and comply with corporate security guidelines. Printer privileges can be restricted for up to 10 individual user profiles, including usage limitations and user authentication.  All device communications can be secured through IEEE 802.1x, IPsec and SSL/TLS for email or cloud access. Additionally, IPv6 support allows IT managers to future-proof their network and limit access by filtering IP addresses and/or ports.

2. Epson Device Admin
The Enterprise WF-C20590 printer is outfitted with Epson’s intuitive print management software, which allows for remote installation, configuration and management of an entire fleet of printers. Device settings can be updated in real time and monitored through an embedded web server (EWS). The printer utilizes a universal driver that is compatible with Windows, Mac and PostScript, reducing the likelihood of widespread software issues that might disrupt production.

3. PrecisionCore Line Head Technology
Epson’s industry leading inkjet printing tools were developed to provide high speeds and  professional-quality output for workgroup and department printing. The high-density PrecisionCore line head can generate up to 40 million precise dots per second, offering accurate ink placement while reducing distortions and imperfections. This is especially important for high resolution graphics or photographs. Luckily, the PrecisionCore printhead nozzles can produce drops as small as 1.5 picoliters at speeds of 100 ISO ppm.
