LONG BEACH, Calif., Feb. 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Since 1999, Epson printers have been used to print color credentials for the Academy of Motion Picture Art and Sciences annual Academy Awards(R) ceremony, which airs Sunday, March 2. This year, the Epson WorkForce(R) WF-3520 was utilized due to its reliability and fast print speeds, as it effortlessly printed thousands of credentials behind the scenes.
"For years I've worked with Epson printers to quickly and seamlessly print event credentials, and this year, we used the WorkForce WF-3520 to help get the job done," said Deborah Cahn, EC Solutions. "As the credential vendor for the Oscars, we rely on printing solutions that are reliable and allow us to print thousands of borderless credential passes easily. The WorkForce WF-3520 is an ideal solution that delivers high quality results, and the quick-drying, smudge-free color inks make the job even more efficient."
The WorkForce WF-3520 delivers the world's fastest two-sided print speeds(1) -- 15 ISO ppm (black) and 9.2 ISO ppm (color) -- and delivers printing costs up to 40 percent lower than color laser printers(2) . The WorkForce WF-3520 offers a compact design and an improved user interface with a 2.5" LCD with smooth backlit touch panel for enhanced visibility. Along with its 250-sheet paper capacity and extra high capacity ink cartridges, the WorkForce WF-3520 requires minimal user intervention, making it an ideal choice for high volume print jobs, such as the press credentials for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences biggest night of the year.
