Back catalogue – FX-1180+

FX-1180+
The Epson FX-1180+ delivers two things vital for the modern workplace - exceptional speed and incredible versatility. You can print everything from receipts and tickets to continuous forms and labels - even A3 size documents. The FX-1180+ is networkable, prints five high-quality invoice copies with one original and gives you the extra convenience of Status Monitoring.

Outstanding Paper Handling Versatility

Whatever the application, the FX-1180+ is ready with just the right paper feed method, without the need for optional equipment. The removable tractor unit enables push paper feed from the front, or pull paper feed from the bottom, front or rear. With the optional tractor unit, you can also use push-pull paper feed from the rear or front, and switching between rear and front push feed of two kinds of continuous paper. You can even use any of these feed methods when printing on thick continuous paper and labels. The optional Cut Sheet Feeder allows you to select feed from the front, rear or top for printing on a wide variety of paper types.

High-Precision Duplicates

Delivery companies, hotels, banks, hospitals, insurance companies, and regular businesses all have one thing in common - they all need to duplicate documents. The FX-1180+ makes this easier than ever. For five copies with one original, just move a lever. It's that simple. Thanks to the printers' high-impact 9-pin printhead and advanced Epson technology, you get incredibly precise high-quality copies.

Lightning Fast Output

Saving valuable time comes easy with the Epson FX-1180+. This high performance printer uses fewer dots to deliver tickets, receipts, invoices, and drafts more that 10% faster than previous models. The wide range of speed settings includes High Speed Draft output at an incredible 410 characters per second. Regular Draft and near-letter quality printing are also faster than ever.

Networkable

The FX-1180+ is ideal for network applications, featuring a parallel interface and a Type B slot for optional interfaces.
