EPSON’S MOST POPULAR DOT MATRIX PRINTERS NOW FASTER

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 28 February 2013 – Building on its reputation as the world’s top dot matrix printer maker*, Epson has introduced its next-generation narrow carriage dot matrix model: the Epson LQ-310. This new printer is an upgraded version of its best-selling LQ-300 models, and features greatly improved speed and reliability.

It features a 128KB input data buffer memory that is double that of its predecessors. This enables the 24-pin LQ-310 to achieve high printing speeds of 347 characters per second at 12 CPI – or almost 40% faster than the previous models.

The Epson LQ-310 also has improved reliability ratings that are an astonishing 67% higher than its predecessors that were already renowned for their dependability. This new model is rated for a mean time before failure (MTBF) of 10,000 POH (power on hours) compared to the older models’ 6,000 POH.

“Millions of our customers and their own customers around the world have grown to depend on the high performance and reliability of Epson’s renowned dot matrix printers without question,” says Yasuhiro Kasai, Country Manager of Epson Malaysia. “That is why we are confident that these new vastly improved models of our best-selling narrow carriage range will first surprise them, and then go on to set new industry benchmarks for speed and reliability.”
