Easy Operation

A key feature of the EPSON LQ-630 is its control panel. This simple, clear three-button/three-LED

panel provides the power to control all aspects of the printing process quickly, ensuring operation

by even the most inexperienced users. A Lock-Out function is also available to restrict the use of

any buttons on the front panel.

Compact and Capable

With a footprint of just 38.6cm x 30.6cm x 18.5cm (WxDxH), a column length of 80 characters and

the ability to print on small cut sheets - 9cm x 7cm (3.5” x 2.8”) and at speeds of up to 360 cps, the

EPSON LQ-630 is built to bring high performance printing especially for restricted space environments.

Versatile Paper Handling

Using EPSON’s flatbed technology, cut sheets and continuous media are inserted and ejected at the

front. Small or normal cut sheets, labels, continuous or multipart stationery up to 1 original + 4

copies can be used.

Making Connections

The EPSON LQ-630 features a Centronics Parallel interface as standard, and also includes a USB v1.1

interface for fast connection to the latest PC technology. For more demanding applications, an optional

EPSONNet External Print Server or an EPSONNet Wireless Print Server are available.
