Introduction

Note:

Your EPSON Stylus COLOR 850N printer is identical to the EPSON Stylus COLOR 850 except for the added network capabilities. Therefore, this guide refers to the EPSON Stylus COLOR 850 printer driver software.

Your EPSON Stylus® COLOR 850N bundled printer/print server is the ideal shared output device for business graphics, layout proofs, digital photography, or any project created by users on your network. With resolutions up to 1440 by 720 dpi, you get amazingly realistic photographic images and vivid graphics in color, or razor-sharp black printing. All at the fastest speed of any EPSON ink jet printer.

The printer software for Microsoft® Windows® and Macintosh® provides advanced color management with adjustable levels of brightness, contrast, saturation, and ink colors. Support for ColorSync2.01 and Windows ICM ensures printouts that closely match the colors on your monitor.

Your printer offers flexible resource sharing; you can use it with multiple types of operating systems and network operating systems. With an integrated Ethernet card for complete network connectivity, setup is fast and easy.
