No More Waiting!
Boosted productivity is what the Epson DLQ-3500II is all about. It delivers a stunning 550 cps at 10 cpi in high speed draft, 495 cps at 10 cpi draft, and  195 cps in LQ.

User and Environment Friendly
In line with Epson's environmental policy, the Epson DLQ-3500II 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-3500II. 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+7 Copy Printing Convenience
Need copies? Switch to the Copy mode, and the powerful Epson DLQ-3500II can deliver up to seven 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.

Consumables

Warning to Epson printer owners. Many well known third party companies claim their inkjet printing papers are compatible with all Epson inkjet printers. Epson has reports from many customers who have used third party paper and have been very disappointed with the results. When the same customers have changed to genuine Epson paper, they have been amazed and pleased with the colour and quality of their prints. Epson recommends that you do not use any non genuine printing papers if you want to get the best results from your Epson printer. Epson printers are very carefully tuned to ensure Epson inks and Epson's patented MicroPiezo printhead produce the best quality prints using carefully selected Epson paper.
