Introduction:

• Your EPSON Stylus® COLOR 3000 printer is the ideal output device for high-quality, large format graphic and business communication pieces—such as color comps, checkplots, maps, presentations, banners, iron-on transfers, and backlit displays— or any project you create.
• With resolutions up to 1440 × 720 dpi (dots per inch), you get amazingly realistic photographic images, vivid color graphics, superb grayscale images, and razor-sharp black printing for detailed line art and crisp text. Its large format capabilities (up to 17² × 22² size paper) and fast print speeds allow you to print full bleed, 13² × 19,² photo quality color comps with ease. And its versatile, built-in paper feeding options let you print on virtually any media, of almost any size, including single sheets, continuous fold paper, and roll paper.
• You can even load continuous paper and single sheets simultaneously, printing on each in turn 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 ColorSync™ 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.
