Epson describes the C3500's pigment ink as long-lasting and its prints as durable. The inks come as individual cartridges, so each colour is replaced on its own, and an LCD screen shows ink and printer status at a glance.
Labels at up to 103 mm per second
The C3500 is a serial inkjet printer with 360 nozzles per colour. Epson rates its maximum print speed at 103 mm/s at 360 x 360 dpi, with a print resolution of up to 720 x 360 dpi and a printing width of up to 104 mm.
