The LQ-680/680 Pro offer very reliable flatbed printing with Epson quality and speed

The Epson LQ-680 and LQ-680 Pro feature rugged Epson construction that ensures reliability, whilst the print head life and total volume have been extended to suit even the most demanding of environments. Paper handling versatility is evident with three-way paper handling from the front, rear or top together with crisp, clear output achievable on multi-part forms up to six layers thick.

The LQ-680 Pro has the same specification as the LQ-680 with the following enhancements: Automatic Platen Gap Adjustment ensures that the print quality and paper feeding is always optimised - ideal for customers who regularly alternate between different paper types. It can handle paper with varying thickness such as overlapping forms or forms with labels and has push button paper source selection between cut sheet, continuous, and if fitted, cut sheet feeder bins one or two.

Key Features

• 8 built-in barcode fonts
• Standard bi-directional parallel interface
• Windows 3.1x/95/98/NT3.51/NT4 included
