previous Epson® 9-pin printers with many features normally exclusive to

sheets of paper without removing the continuous paper, eliminates
paper waste with short tear-off, and allows easy and accurate paper
alignment.
An improved control panel design that allows direct selection of
character fonts and pitch, as well as a choice of draft or near letter
