Introduction
The EPSON
®
Stylus
®
COLOR is a high-quality, high-resolution
ink jet printer that can print up to 16 million colors at a
resolution of 720 dpi to produce full-color, near-photographic
images. It also produces realistic grayscale images and sharp
text and line art.
The printer is quiet and easy to install and use. You simply set
it up and connect it to your Apple
®
Macintosh
®
as described in
Chapter 1.
Both a serial and a parallel interface are provided. You can use
both interfaces to simultaneously connect the printer to a
Macintosh and a PC. The printer automatically switches
between interfaces as print data is received.
An optional EPSON Talk kit, which contains a LocalTalk
®
interface board, is available for connecting the printer to an
AppleTalk
®
network so it can be shared by multiple Macintosh
computers. If you install the LocalTalk board, you can use all
three interfaces—serial, parallel, and LocalTalk—
simultaneously. See Appendix A for more information about
the LocalTalk interface.
