Introduction

The EPSON Image Authentication System™ (IAS) lets you check the authenticity of photos

taken with your EPSON PhotoPC EPSON PhotoPC 750Z camera. IAS detects when even a single bit of digital data in a picture has been altered. Because IAS doesn’t change the file format, it has no affect on your ability to store and display pictures, or to use them in other applications.

Important:

Your software license agreement permits you to upload the IAS software to only one

700 or

EPSON digital camera per software copy or license purchased.
