EPSON ADDS TWO PRINTERS TO ITS LINE UP
By Adnews Staff
Japan-based Seiko Epson Corp. will ad two ink jet printers next month to its product line in North America. Called the Epson Stylus color 850 and 850N, the printers are geared to professionals, have 1,440 dpi print capabilities. and are 20% faster than earlier models. The 850 features an on-screen ink level detection system that functions much like a gas gauge on a car. Users of the 850 can have manual control of the brightness, contrast, saturation and individual color of the print. The 850N is equipped with all the advantages of the 850, but also comes with a built-in Ethernet print server so it can be used in workgroups. In Canada, the printers will be promoted using PR done by Cohn & Wolfe of Toronto. Canadian Epson officials were unavailable to comment on advertising plans for the printers.
