LOS ALAMITOS, Calif., April 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Epson America, Inc. today announced Saline Area Schools has onboarded Epson business printing solutions to replace its fleet of laser printers deployed across seven education buildings. Saline Area Schools chose Epson’s business printers, powered by PrecisionCore® Heat-Free technology, because of the distinct and impactful environmental benefits that help the district advance its sustainability goals.
Saline Area Schools selects Epson business printers to help advance its district sustainability goals.
“The district has been focused on implementing technology and making decisions that help us to be more green by saving energy and reducing our carbon footprint,” said Jay Grossman, director of technology at the Saline Area Schools district office. “During our conversation at the Board of Education meeting where we were seeking approval for the bid, the consensus was that the Epson printers would be the best fit for making a difference when it comes to environmental impact as well as overall energy and cost savings.”
The Saline Area School district Instructional Technology department’s mission is to bring technology into the classroom for educators and students to utilize as a tool to aid in the learning process. Its former printer fleet proved to no longer serve as a bridge to enhance learning but instead a barrier due to frequent machine downtime, long turnaround times for replacement parts and toner complications.
The district replaced its former laser printer fleet with the WorkForce® Enterprise AM-C5000 Color MFPs, WF-M21000 Monochrome MFPs and WorkForce Pro WF-C579R* Workgroup Color MFPs with Replaceable Ink Pack Systems.
“The fact that the MFPs have all the advantages on top of other features like hole punching, stapling, duplex printing and others with specific benefits to education environments was huge,” said Grossman.
The WF-C579R is a compact network MFP with fast speeds and low printing costs. It has a Replaceable Ink Pack System with Extra High-capacity packs that can deliver enough ink to print up to 50,000 ISO pages black/20,000 ISO pages color before changing the packs.1 The AM-C5000 delivers color prints with a print speed of 50 ISO ppm† and has versatile options for stacking, stapling, creating booklets and hole-punching. The WF-M21000 delivers professional-quality monochrome prints at 100 ISO ppm,† the fastest print speed in its class,2 making it a high-performance MFP has everything large workgroups and departments need.
“Over the course of four months, we have printed over two million pages on the Epson MFPs,” said Grossman. “The inkjet MFPs don’t require heat (in the ink ejection process) to print and as a result, we’ve saved on energy associated with printing and had a reduction in energy costs.”
Having great success with Epson inkjet print solutions, Saline Area Schools also turned to Epson as part of its plan to upgrade classroom audio/visual equipment in its three elementary schools. The elementary schools are equipped with Epson document cameras and projectors.
“Saline’s mission to be more sustainable and cost effective is one we are honored to support,” said Elliot Williams, director of product marketing, Business Imaging, Epson America, Inc. “Epson’s business print solutions are designed to deliver exceptional performance and environmental benefits, and we’re proud to see our solutions supporting both the district’s educational goals and environmental objectives.”
Epson business printers are engineered for reliability, designed for productivity and set up to support schools to achieve their sustainability goals.

*This product uses only genuine Epson-brand ink packs. Other brands of ink packs and ink supplies are not compatible and, even if described as compatible, may not function properly or at all.
1 Replacement ink pack yields are estimated based on ISO/IEC 24711 test in Default Mode printing continuously. Ink pack yields vary considerably for reasons including images printed, print settings, temperature and humidity. Yields may be lower when printing infrequently or predominantly with one ink color. All ink colors are used for printing and printer maintenance, and all colors have to be installed for printing. For print quality, part of the ink from the included ink packs is used for printer startup and a variable amount of ink remains in the ink pack after the “replace ink pack” signal.

2 Black and color print speeds are measured in accordance with ISO/IEC 24734. Actual print times will vary based on factors including system configuration, software, and page complexity. For more information, visit www.epson.com/printspeeds
