DLQ-3000+

Fast, precise, reliable printing, and the paper handling versatility to meet all your business needs. More efficient business comes easy with the Epson DLQ-3000+ flatbed printer. You get lightning speed to sprint through the job fast. Outstanding precision for clear, professional results every time. Epson's renowned reliability for top performance that goes the distance.

What's more, the DLQ-3000+ is networkable, with a user-friendly interface that lets everyone take advantage of its exceptional capabilities.

Superb Reliability
For decades, Epson has supported businesses with an impressive range of printers offering exceptional reliability. The Epson DLQ-3000+ carries on this tradition of unrivalled dependability. Long-life features include a total print volume of nine million lines, plus ribbon life of six million characters. Which translates into impeccable flatbed performance, day in and day out.

No more waiting!
Boosted productivity is what the Epson DLQ-3000+ is all about. It delivers a stunning 444 cps at 10 cpi in high speed draft, 360 cps in draft, and 120 cps in LQ.

User and Environment Friendly
In line with Epson's environmental policy, the Epson DLQ-3000+ is constructed of non-toxic, easily recycled materials. It's user-friendly too. The direct path horizontal feed design assures accurate printing every time without crooked lines or smearing. This also contributes to environmental protection by eliminating wasteful use of paper.

EPSON Technology - The Key to Versatile Paper Handling
Printing on single sheets, envelopes, and continuous paper is just the beginning with the Epson DLQ-3000+. You can also print on overlapping paper. And for even more versatility, there's Auto Platen Gap adjustment. Switch to the Auto mode, and this Epson innovation automatically detects paper thickness before adjusting the distance between the head and the platen. The result is precise, smooth printing even on forms with labels. If you're using a limited range of paper thicknesses, you can also switch to the Manual mode to set the optimum printing parameters manually.

1+6 Copy Printing Convenience
Need copies? Switch to the Copy mode, and the powerful Epson DLQ-3000+ can deliver up to six copies in addition to the original. And thanks to the high impact pressure of the long-life 24-pin printhead each copy is as clear as the original. The other good news is the Epson DLQ-3000+ also lets you print right up to top (max. 0mm) and bottom edges of a cut sheet, envelope, or postcard.* So now, for the first time, you can print numbers and dates at the very edge of the paper.

Networkable
In addition to standard parallel and serial interfaces, you can install an optional Ethernet card in the Type B interface slot to incorporate the Epson DLQ-3000+ in an expanded multi-system network.

* Envelopes and postcards must be fed manually. This kind of printing is not applicable to Macintosh users.
