Printer Mechanism
Unlike EPSON’s previous ink jet printer mechanisms, one of the major characteristics of EPSON Stylus
Color 600 is that the printer has no Engage/Disengage mechanism in order to change over pump
mechanism and paper feeding mechanism. Instead, however, this change-over control is done by the
distinction between turning direction of PF motor and position of present carriage unit. Also, another
major characteristic is that print head is changed to be one unit combined with black and CMY. Nozzle
configuration for black is 64 nozzles (the nozzle pitch of each column is 90dpi and between two
consecutive nozzles in number (e.g. #1 and #2) is 180dpi). On the other hand, CMY nozzle has 32
nozzles (90dpi) for each color. Following figure shows exterior of mechanism.
