IT MAKES A COLORFUL CASE FOR BEING YOUR iMAC PRINTER.

The EPSON Stylus®Color 740i ink jet is the one printer that will look just perfect seated next to your new Apple iMac computer. It comes standard in fresh iMac blueberry, or you can outfit it with an optional printer cover in lime, tangerine, grape or strawberry. How fun is that?

At 6 pages per minute black and 5 in color, the EPSON Stylus Color 740i is a speedy choice, too, one that delivers the EPSON Perfect Picture System featuring award-winning advanced Micro Piezo ink jet technology, smooth AcuPhoto Halftoning and convenient quick drying inks that won’t bleed or smudge.

After a quick setup, you’ll be printing out an awesome 1440 x 720 dots per inch of amazing color and laser sharp black text on whatever paper you choose. Plus, because the EPSON Stylus Color 740i uses ultra small, 6-picoliter ink droplets, you’ll be getting richer, far more detailed color images.

Just imagine what that will mean when you’re printing your color photos, graphics, greeting cards, banners or maybe your very first screenplay!

The EPSON Stylus Color 740i is the ideal match for your home or office iMac or PowerMac G3. It offers easy USB and serial port connections and, when you team it up with an EPSON PhotoPC you get camera-to-printer printing.
