Re: [Ql-Users] Epson EPL-6200 compatibility with QL
Hi Davide, as far as I am aware, the EPL-7100 and EPL-8100 were the last models which supported full ESC/P compatibility. Later models (all ending in x200 or higher) had a more limited set, or no compatibility at all. I remember that one of my German customers (was it Ralf Reköndt?? - Ralf reads here so he will know) had one of the more recent models and we wrote about it several times ... I do not remember if he was happy at all with the printer. I looked at laser printers some years ago and discovered that some Brother Lasers supported EPSON ESC/P and were REALLY cheap too! Maybe that would be an option for your friend to look at? Cheers Jochen Davide Santachiara wrote: I was asked by a friend whether the Epson EPL-6200 laser printer (which shall support fx codes) is compatible with QL systems and software. I have a very old EPL-5200 which was compatible but I do not have any idea about this EPL-6200. I found in old emails some references to this printer as a possible choice but either they referred to the usage with Proforma or they did not give a real answer. Anybody has experience on this?

Unfortunately, I cannot say anything about the requested EPL-6200. Cheers...Ralf ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
