Epson DS-C380W
Epson’s DS-C480W and DS-C420W document scanners were among a small percentage of entrants to win a Best of the Best award, the highest distinction in the Red Dot Product Design 2024 Awards.
The Document Scanners DS-C480W (DS-C380W in Australia and New Zealand) and DS-C420W (DS-C320W in Australia and New Zealand) were awarded Best of the Best for their clever space-saving design. The compact desktop scanners, with their U-turn paper feeding vertical layout, frontal operation, and flattened back, are easily accommodated in any working environment.
This marks the fifth time that Epson has won Best of the Best. Other Epson Red Dot Product Design winners awards included:
Business Inkjet Printers: WorkForce Enterprise AM-C4000, 5000 and 6000
These high-speed A3 inkjet printers are intended for medium-sized to large offices. These inkjets don’t use heat to fire ink*, and therefore consume less power than laser equivalents.
Together with a simple structure that saves resources, these printers are designed to minimise environmental impact. The exterior is white, clean, rounded and unimposing.
Garment Printers: SureColor SC-F2200 Series (SureColor F2260 in Australia and New Zealand)
These garment printers can print directly onto T-shirts and other clothes. Their compact design makes them easy to install, expand, and transport. Epson has also changed the design of the operating unit to solve the issue of T-shirts being difficult to attach to the previous model. Productivity has also been improved, with the new model being made easier to operate. Epson hopes that the product helps contribute to the digitalisation of the textile printing industry.
Auto Colour Chart Reading Portable Table (Auto Table for SD-10 spectrophotometer in Australia and New Zealand) spectrophotometer
This automatic colour measurement portable table makes it easy to match colours on Epson large-format printers. It works in conjunction with Epson’s colour measurement device (SD-10 spectrophotometer) and colour management software (Edge Color Lite) to automatically measure colours so that anyone can match colours accurately and quickly. It can also measure soft materials such as cloth and thick materials. Conventional automatic colour measurement tables are large and difficult to carry. Epson solves this problem by using drive technology cultivated in printers to create a small, lightweight, high-precision body. It comes with a carry bag that is easy to carry and store, so you can take it to a site, open the bag, and start measuring colours immediately.
