The LQ-590II is a high-volume dot matrix printer designed for fast and reliable printing. Upgrade your existing dot matrix printers to our latest model, which is now Energy Star compliant, and delivers an incredibly low TCO.
The LQ-590II offers an improved USD (ultra speed draft) speed of 550 characters per second at 10 characters per inch, making a real difference to high-volume print runs such as stock reports and large batches of invoices or freight documents.
Epson's dot matrix technology is already mature and very reliable. Building on this, the new printer improves the mean time between failure by 25% to 25,000 power-on hours, ideal for challenging conditions or where regular maintenance is not practical.
This printer uses the same ribbons as existing models, so you can upgrade your hardware and continue to use your current ribbon supplies.
