EPSON’s® mid-range inkjet aimed at first time or replacement printer users is revamped
For the home user who requires high quality output at a reasonable price the EPSON Stylus C64 is the ideal solution. The Stylus C64 features EPSON’s DURABrite™ inks to ensure laser sharp blacks and vivid, life-like colours that are waterproof, smudge proof and fade resistant for up to 80 years*. The Stylus C64 is designed to meet the needs of home users who print a variety of documents from black only text to the occasional photograph.
1st August 2003 – The EPSON Stylus C64 is the ideal A4 colour inkjet for use in the home. The Stylus C64 provides fast, high quality printing at a cost effective price. For the first time EPSON’s mid-range inkjet printer is compatible with EPSON’s DURABrite inks; the second generation of DURABrite inks provide resistance to water, are smudge proof and fade resistant for up to 80 years*. The new ink offers laser sharp text and vibrant colour reproduction on plain and recycled paper, resulting in the Stylus C64 becoming an all-round document and photo printing solution.
The customer could choose the EPSON Stylus C64 for its speed and high quality output, but they should also consider the on-going running costs. With running costs in mind EPSON has designed the Stylus C64 to use separate ink cartridges, and the option of standard or high capacity ink cartridges (colour only). The printer’s silver case and overall look has been designed so that the Stylus C64 will make a stylish addition to any home.
“A printer that is going to be used by people in their homes needs to look attractive and offer great output at a price that is right,” says Richard Baylis, Sales and Marketing Manager, Consumer Products, EPSON UK. “With these factors in mind EPSON has designed the Stylus C64 to be fast, offer high quality output and be cost effective to run.”
