Introduction

• Your EPSON Stylus COLOR 1520 printer is the ideal output device for business communication pieces such as
  presentations, signs, banners, maps, color comps, checkplots, iron-on transfers, and backlit displays-or any project you create.
• Using resolutions up to 1440 x 720 dpi (dots per inch), you get amazingly realistic photographic images, vivid color graphics, superb grayscale images, and razor-sharp black printing for crisp text and detailed line art.
  With its large format print capabilities and versatile, built-in paper feeding options, the EPSON Stylus COLOR 1520 lets you print on virtually any media, of almost any size, including single sheets, continuous fold paper, and roll paper.
• You can even switch between printing on continuous paper and single sheets by flipping a lever.
  The printer software for Microsoft® Windows® and Apple® Macintosh computers provides advanced color management, with adjustable levels of brightness, contrast, saturation, and ink colors.
• Support for ColorSyncTM 2.01 and Windows 95 ICM ensures printouts that closely match the colors on your monitor. You can also perform many printer maintenance procedures right from your computer, such as cleaning and aligning the print heads. And EPSON's extensive online help can guide you through printer operations in real time.
• With standard parallel and high-speed serial ports and optional network connectivity, setting up your printer is fast and easy. EPSON's specially formulated, quick-drying ink and wide variety of ink jet media give you the best quality output and offer the most flexibility for getting the results you want.
