handling, you must select the EPSON ESC/P 2™ printer from the list.

select an alternative printer from those listed below, choosing the printers
listed at the top first.

features offered by the EPSON STYLUS C80, such as 720-dpi printing and
1440-dpi printing.

manual for information on accessing the printer driver settings.
