Q. What is a RISC processor and what are its advantages?

A. RISC stands for "Reduced Instruction Set Computer". RISC processors

are optimized for particular functions, unlike general purpose processors.

They are designed to complete those functions in one (1) clock cycle

rather than several, thus speeding up their performance. The EPL-7500

uses the Weitek XL-8200 series 32-bit RISC processor (8 MHz), which

has been optimized for use in printer controllers. The application of this

processor in an Adobe PostScript printer dramatically speeds up data

through-put when printing complex pages. The term "through-put" refers

to the time that a printer requires to process and print a page.

Q. What are the product codes for the EPL-7500 options and supplies?

A. Listed below are the product codes for the EPL-7500 options and

supplies.

Q. Are there any optional printer emulations currently available for the

EPL-7500?

A. No.

Q. What interface ports are built-in the EPL-7500?

A. The EPL-7500 has four (4) of the most commonly used interface ports

built-in:

AppleTalk

Centronics Parallel

RS-422 Serial

RS-232C Serial
