Epson America Inc. has announced that TROY Group has created two on-demand printing solutions designed specifically to enhance document security using Epson business inkjet technology. As threats to physical document security become more common, TROY created the TROY ST-C5000 Secure UV Printer and the TROY WF-C21000 MICR Color Printer powered by PrecisionCore technology — a simple, smart and clean solution.

To achieve its mission of offering the highest levels of security available for checks and documents, TROY chooses cutting-edge technologies to develop solutions that help to simplify security, reduce risk and virtually all fraud. TROY chose Epson due to its unique, renowned heat-free inkjet technology and its ability to preserve the integrity of TROY specialty inks, unlike laser devices that use heat and can break down functional materials in the ink during the printing process.

"TROY is thrilled to adopt Epson's proven printing technology and share in this commitment to innovation," said Michael Riley, president, TROY Group Inc. "By integrating our advanced security features with Epson's renowned PrecisionCore technology, we are elevating the standards of printing solutions globally. We have engineered solutions that empower our customers with the reliability and performance they need to succeed in a rapidly evolving market."

The TROY ST-C5000 Secure UV Printer, leveraging high-capacity ink bottles, adds a layer of security to documents by printing overt or covert security markings using UV fluorescent ink to help businesses, such as government agencies, reduce the risk of fraud and counterfeiting. The TROY WF-C21000 MICR Color Printer, bridging the gap between traditional MICR printers, color printers and high-volume production presses, allows companies, such as financial institutions and production check printers, to seamlessly integrate quality MICR check printing and the ability to craft custom color checks and documents.

"The new solutions are the results of TROY's trust in Epson's PrecisionCore inkjet technology, delivering sustainability, reliability and low energy consumption," said Elliot Williams, director of product marketing for business imaging, Epson America Inc. “With Epson's cutting-edge technology and expertise, we are paving the way to safeguard print with simple but elegant solutions that reduce downtime, boost productivity and minimize waste sent to landfills, benefiting both the environment and businesses' bottom lines."

The TROY ST-C5000 Secure UV Printer adds overt and covert security features to documents with UV inks on blank or preprinted UV security stock. For an extra later of security, businesses can add an optional tray lock to secure source stock.

The TROY WF-C21000 MICR Color Printer uses TROY's advanced MICR inks to ensure that checks are fortified against tampering, providing businesses with peace of mind amidst rising check fraud.
