The B-500DN's suitability for a broad range of printing applications is enhanced due to its high speed. Capable of producing mono or color prints at 37 pages per minute in draft quality, and up to 33 pages per minute at laser-like quality, the B-500DN is capable of handling the most demanding workloads. In line with other high-performance business printers, the B-500DN has two paper sources, which offer a combined capacity of 650 sheets of paper, and duplex printing is offered as standard. The printer is also equipped with high-yield individual ink tanks capable of up to 8000 pages between replacements, helping to ensure large print runs can be rapidly completed without interruption.

Reliability is another key attribute of the B-500DN making it suitable for demanding business usage. Epson's Micro Piezo print head features an Auto Nozzle check system that ensures optimum performance every time. The printer also incorporates technology that prevents double feeding of paper helping to ensure continuous functionality. The B-500DN is made from high quality materials that allow a maximum print volume of 20,000 pages per month.

The B-500DN supports a broad range of media from standard paper to art papers, card, and with Epson's Micro Piezo print head being a non-contact technology, the wear and tear caused by dirty or poor quality paper is eliminated. This makes the printer suitable for a broad range of business and public sector applications in addition to document printing including retail uses ranging from printing price labels to point of sale items, education uses such as printing art and design work and healthcare uses such as printing X-rays on paper. The use of Epson's DuraBrite Ultra Inks ensures an excellent quality of print even on plain paper and also means that print-jobs are water and smudge resistant, further expanding the printer's broad range of applications.

The B-500DN is ideal for shared use amongst workgroups and within smaller businesses due to its network capability, which comes as standard. The printer can also be connected to individual computers or servers via high-speed USB 2.0.
