About Your Printer

Features
Options and Consumable Products

Your printer is the latest in EPSON's advanced line of network 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.

The printer's 600-dpi (dots per inch) resolution is enhanced by EPSON's Resolution Improvement Technology (RITech), which smooths the jagged edges of diagonal lines in both text and graphics. This gives your documents a clean, crisp, professional appearance.

In addition, EPSON's Enhance MicroGray technology provides you with better halftoning when printing graphics.

This printer is intended to be used on network environments. After your administrator makes network settings, install the printer software as instructed by your administrator. The Administrator's Guide is included for your administrator in the printer package.

The printer supports ECP mode in Microsoft® Windows® 95. ECP mode is useful for high-speed data transfer and bidirectional communication with your computer.
