Welcome!

With resolutions up to 5760 × 720 dpi, it’s the ideal output device for everything from exhibition prints to family photos. You can print edge-to-edge, borderless prints on a variety of roll paper sizes, or on single sheets of special Epson® photo papers available in popular print sizes.

About Your Software

The printer software CD-ROM that came with your printer includes all the software you need for printing. See the Start Here sheet for installation instructions.

Your printer driver runs your printer and lets you control how your documents look. You can’t use your printer without it.

Note: It’s a good idea to check Epson’s support web site periodically for possible updates to your printer driver. Visit http://support.epson.com and check the section for your product to see if there is a new driver available, free of charge, for downloading to your computer. Download instructions are included for your convenience.

The Windows driver includes the Epson ICC Color Profiles, which work with Adobe® Photoshop,® Photoshop Elements, and other software applications to give you control of the colors in your prints when used in a color-managed workflow.

Epson PhotoCenterSM is Epson’s free photo-sharing web site where you can store, organize, and share your photos; print high-resolution photos straight from the web; and order prints and custom photo gifts. The printer software installer lets you add a link to the Epson PhotoCenter on your desktop.
