Expanding its current lineup of A3 and A4 color multifunction printers, Epson has introduced the LM-M5500—a model specifically designed for users who prioritize monochrome printing.
Capable of printing at an impressive speed of 55 pages per minute, this new device offers both productivity and sharp output. As with other printers in the Epson Smart Charge range, it stands out for its extremely low energy consumption, contributing to reduced CO₂ emissions and supporting eco-conscious business operations.
Tailored for high-volume printing environments such as government agencies and financial institutions, the LM-M5500 is built to enhance workflow efficiency while maintaining superior image quality.
Highlight Features of the LM-M5500
Eco-Friendly Technology Aimed at a Low-Carbon Future
Powered by Epson’s innovative Heat-Free Technology, the LM-M5500 operates without heat during the printing process—resulting in dramatically lower electricity usage and fewer carbon emissions. Drawing a maximum of just 185W and featuring a TEC value of 0.22 kWh, it complies with International ENERGY STAR® standards. Choosing this inkjet model is a meaningful step toward sustainable business practices.
Speed and Performance for Demanding Workflows
With a printing speed of 55 ppm and a first page-out time of only 6.3 seconds, the LM-M5500 is engineered for speed and reliability. Its automatic document feeder (ADF) allows for scanning up to 70 images per minute in simplex and 140 images per minute in duplex mode—making it ideal for offices that require swift document processing.
Sharp and Clear Monochrome Output
Though it specializes in black-and-white printing, the LM-M5500 produces high-resolution results with outstanding detail and smooth gradation. Leveraging Epson’s proprietary inkjet technology, the printer ensures that even fine lines and small text are rendered with precision—perfect for everything from internal reports to customer-facing documents like invoices and legal forms.
