HP Emulation

Your EPI-4000 printer offers HP emulation so you can use most: commercial software designed for the HP LaserJet series II printer. Simply follow the software’s instructions for printing with an HP LaserJet series II printer.

Unique Features

Certain EPI-4000 printer functions give you greater versatility than you get with an HP LaserJet series II printer. These include the following:

The ability to print on different sizes of paper without changing the paper cassette.

An easy-to-use control panel.

Ability to use Epson font cards for crisp, clear printing.

Two ESC/P emulation modes for compatibility with software applications written for Epson 9-pin and 24-pin printers.

Printable area

The size of the printable area for the LaserJet series II and the EN-4000 is the same. The maximum number of characters that can be printed per line is also the same. However, the absolute print position may not be exactly the same as a printout from an HP LaserJet series II printer.

Another difference is that you can use continuous paper with your EPI-4000. Although impossible with an HP LaserJet series II printer, the EPI-4000 can print on continuous paper in LaserJet series II mode. See the technical specifications in the optional push tractor’s manual for more information on the printable area for this type of paper.
