The LQ–300+II is the latest high speed, high quality dot matrix printer of
choice for the business environment. Featuring extraordinary speed, output quality
and dependability — as well as optional colour capability — the Epson LQ–300+II
24–pin dot matrix printer offers exceptionally high performance in a compact
and lightweight package. The LQ–300+II offers fast draft and letter quality
printing, a convertible push/pull tractor, the ability to upgrade to colour,
and flexible connectivity with standard USB, serial and parallel interfaces
with built–in auto switching.
A versatile printer, the LQ–300+II is easy to use and has excellent paper handling
capabilities, including the ability to load single A4 cut sheets, continuous
stationery, envelopes, and multi–part stationery with no wastage of the first
sheet. Standard paper handling can be enhanced with the addition of the optional
second tractor or the single bin cut sheet feeder. Impact Dot Matrix printers
are the ever reliable and valuable business tool, with particular applications
in difficult environments, such as retail, government, warehousing, office and
data processing applications. The unique features of SIDM printers make them
the only viable printing alternative in many circumstances.
