About Your Printer

Features
Options and Consumable Products

Your printer is the latest in EPSON's advanced line of laser printers. It emulates the Hewlett-Packard® LaserJet 4™ (LJ4) printer, allowing you to print using the wide variety of software programs that support HP LaserJet printers.

When using the printer driver provided, 1200 dpi printing is available. The printer's 1200-dpi (dots per inch) resolution smooths the jagged edges of diagonal lines in both text and graphics. This gives your documents a clean, crisp look that contributes to a professional appearance.

The printer is easy to install and use. You simply set up the printer, connect it to your computer, and install the printer driver as described in the Setup Guide.

The printer supports ECP (Extended Capabilities Port) mode in Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows Me. ECP mode is useful for high-speed data transfer and bidirectional communication with your computer.

Features

The printer comes with a full set of features that contributes to ease of use and consistent, high-quality output. The main features are described below.

High-quality printing

When using the driver provided, your printer provides 1200-dpi printing at a speed of up to 21 pages per minute when printing on A4 paper. You'll appreciate the professional print quality produced by your printer and its quick processing speed.

Warm-up time reduction

The printer warms up faster than conventional printers. About 13 seconds is required from power supply ON to when printing can be done. Furthermore, if printing data is received in the power-saving mode, printing will be started after a warm up time of about 7 seconds.

Wide variety of fonts

The printer comes with a selection of 80 LaserJet-compatible scalable fonts, and 3 bitmap fonts in LJ4 emulation mode to provide you with the fonts you need to create professional-looking documents.

Toner Save mode

To reduce the amount of toner used in printing documents, you can print rough drafts using the Toner Save mode.

Resolution Improvement Technology (RITech)

Resolution Improvement Technology (RITech) is an original EPSON printer technology that improves the appearance of printed lines, text, and graphics. This feature is not available when the Print Quality setting of the printer driver is set to True 1200 dpi.
