About Your Printer

Printing with your EPSON Stylus C44 printer is easy, friendly, and fast. Simple

enough for even the most inexperienced user, the Stylus C44 prints everything from

school reports to family photos with great results.

The Stylus C44 includes Exif (Exchangeable Image File) Print format support, which

lets your printer use information stored in your digital camera to print more accurate

reproductions of digital camera images.

For added value, the printer supports a wide range of EPSON®special media,

including Glossy Photo Greeting Cards, Photo Stickers,

®and special photo papers in a

variety of sizes and finishes. Visit the EPSON StoreSM at www.epsonstore.com for a

complete list.

About Your Software

The CD-ROM that came with your printer includes all the software you need for

printing. See your Start Here sheet for installation instructions.

■Your printer driver runs your printer and lets you control how your documents

look. You can’t print without it.

Tip: It’s a good idea to check EPSON’s support web site periodically for free

updates to your printer driver. Visit http://support.epson.com. Download

instructions are posted for your convenience.

■EPSON Software™Film Factory™is a photo management program that lets you

organize, beautify, and print your photos in a flash. Supports Exif Print (except

with Mac®OS X).

Note: With Exif Print, image settings such as white balance, contrast, and

exposure time are saved in your digital photo files. If your digital camera supports

Exif Print, you can use this technology when you print with Exif Print enabled

applications like Film Factory.

■EPSON PhotoCenterSM is EPSON’s free photo-sharing web site where you can

store, organize, and share your photos; print high-resolution photos straight from

the web; and create free online postcards with your photos. Your printer software

installer lets you add a link to the EPSON PhotoCenter on your desktop.
