Introduction

The EPL-6000 laser printer offers high performance and reliability

and a wide range of features. Your printer combines a

semiconductor laser with the electrophotographic technology used

in office copiers to give you high-quality printing that is both fast

and quiet.

The imaging system used by your laser printer is driven by a

powerful computer that allows the printer to compose an entire

page in internal memory before printing. The printer can

manipulate the page it holds in memory to provide you with the

ability to mix text and graphics, create predefined forms, and print

with a range of fonts normally associated with typeset material.

Features

In addition to the high-quality printing and ease of operation you

have come to expect from Epson* printers, the EPL-6000 printer

offers the following:

HP LaserJet series II emulation resident in the printer, giving

you access to the wide range of software written for Hewlett-

Packard laser printers.

An optional Epson FX Identity Cartridge that uses the ESC/P

standard. This cartridge comes with its own user’s manual.

Epson’s SelecType feature that gives you touch control over

many printer features, including font selection, paper size, and

interface settings.

Two slots available for font and identity cartridges.

The EPL-6000 can accommodate HP-compatible soft fonts.

A built-in 512KB of RAM. A 2MB memory board option

(upgradable to 4MB) is also available.

Introduction 1

Introduction

High-quality, 300 dot-per-inch (DPI) printing at a speed of 6

pages per minute for letter-size paper.

Two paper delivery methods: face-down delivery for collated

sheets and faceup delivery for printing on media requiring a

straight paper path and for immediate viewing of printed

output.

Three built-in interfaces: parallel and RS-232C and RS-422A

serial.

A small footprint and a light weight.

Enhanced paper handling capabilities that allow you to select a

variety of sizes for automatic feeding without having to change

paper cassettes. A manual paper feed capability is also available.

Laser printer precautions

Certain precautions are necessary to ensure the safe and efficient

operation of the EPL-6000. The following list of precautions applies

whenever you open the printer cover. Even if you are familiar with

other types of printers, be sure to follow these precautions carefully.

Be careful not to touch the fuser, which has a hot surface. (The

fuser is the orange-colored area on the left side of the printer,

inside the cover.) There is a label on the fuser warning you not

to touch the hot surface.

Protect the light-sensitive drum from exposure to light. You

should avoid exposing the drum unit to room light for any

longer than necessary. Never expose the drum to lighting any

stronger than room light. Overexposing the drum may cause

abnormally dark or light areas to appear on the printed page,

reducing the service life of the drum.

If you must expose the drum, either by taking the drum unit out

of the printer or by leaving the printer cover open, cover the

drum with a soft cloth or sheet of paper.

If you remove the drum, developer unit, or basket from the

printer, always set them on a clean, smooth surface. Be sure not

to scratch or mar the roller on the developer unit or the surface

of the drum. Also avoid touching the drum, since oils from your

skin can permanently mar its surface and affect print quality.
