Introduction

This manual contains general operating and maintenance instructions for your EPSON® Stylus® COLOR II, as well as troubleshooting guidelines and technical specifications. For instructions on setting up your printer and using the Microsoft® Windows® or Apple® Macintosh® printer driver, see the appropriate Setup and Software Guide.

Note:

After you install the driver, check the ReadMe icon in the EPSON group in Windows or on the Macintosh hard disk for the latest information about your printer and software.

Your printer supports a wide variety of settings that give you the flexibility to improve print quality or speed up printing. Using the printer driver software (described in the Setup and Software Guide), you can control settings such as document type, printing mode, and halftoning to produce just the right effects in your printed documents.

To make your job easy, both the Windows and Macintosh printer drivers include an option that analyzes the elements on a page to be printed and automatically adjusts the driver settings so your printed results are appropriate for the image type. See the Setup and Software Guide for complete instructions on using the driver and for color print samples of the kinds of output the printer can produce.
