The Epson Stylus Setup

The Epson Stylus is a special type of printer. It allows a regular inkjet printer to become a high quality graphics printer without needing to purchase high tech equipment that may cost more than three times the price of the Epson Stylus. Here are a few tips on installing and setting up your Epson Stylus.

 

The first thing you need to do is check the printer’s setup. Make sure that paper and ink are loaded into the printer and that it has fully completed the ink charging cycle. It is a good idea to let the printer run a self test. This will ensure that the printer is set up correctly and running as it should. Also make sure the printer is connected to either a Macintosh or to the network. Make sure that any other software and drivers that came with the printer are installed and setup correctly. Once you are satisfied that the printer is correctly set up you can install the Epson Stylus software.

 

The software can be installed on a Macintosh or on the printer server. Then the client software needs to be installed on the client Macintosh computers in the network. Then you need to run the Updater to ensure the licence for the Epson Stylus is installed in the printer as well.

 

There are slightly different  procedures to follow if you are installing the software onto a standalone system instead of onto a network, but the principle remains the same. Make user that you follow any and all instructions that come with the printer and the software to make sure that the software and hardware is all properly installed and will work to the best of its abilities.

 

It is compatible with a number of colour palettes and has great potential to turn any graphic into a work of art. The trick is to make sure it is installed correctly and that everything is working as it should before you even begin to send it things to print. Do not take any short cuts, it may just damage the best investment you have made to date.
