* Pages/copies per minute (ppm/cpm) measured after first page, based on black and color text patterns in Draft Mode on plain paper. Color photo 13 seconds speed in Draft Mode and 32 seconds in Photo Mode on
Premium Photo Paper Glossy, measured from start of paper feed. Additional print time will vary based on system configuration, software application and page complexity. See www.epson.com/printspeed for more
information about print speed.
** Ink lightfastness rating based on accelerated testing of prints on specialty media, displayed indoors under glass or in an album. Actual print stability will vary according to media, printed image, display conditions, light
intensity, humidity and atmospheric conditions. Epson does not guarantee longevity of prints. For maximum print life, display all prints under plexi, glass or lamination, or properly store them. Visit www.wilhelm-
research.com for the latest information.
*** We recommend that you use genuine Epson ink cartridges. The use of other products may affect your print quality and longevity and could result in printer or all-in-one damage. Yields vary considerably based on
images printed, print settings, paper type, frequency of use and temperature. For print quality, a small amount of ink remains in the cartridge after the “replace cartridge” indicator comes on. The printers and all-in-
ones ship with full cartridges and part of the ink from the first cartridges is used for priming the printer or all-in-one. See www.epson.com/cartridgeinfo for more information about cartridges.
† Not available when printing using Macintosh OS X.
