Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) language file format can contain both vector and bitmap graphics and is supported by virtually all graphic, illustration, and page-layout programs. EPS format is used to transfer PostScript-language artwork between applications. When you open an EPS file containing vector graphics in Photoshop, it rasterizes the image, converting the vector graphics to pixels.

EPS format supports Lab, CMYK, RGB, Indexed Color, Duotone, Grayscale, and Bitmap color modes, and does not support alpha channels. EPS does support clipping paths. Desktop Color Separations (DCS) format, a version of the standard EPS format, lets you save color separations of CMYK images. You use DCS 2.0 format to export images containing spot channels. To print EPS files, you must use a PostScript printer.

Overview
EPS is actually a page description language but is also used for describing images.
Some software can print but not display the EPS images on the screen, since the software are not able to interpret the EPS information. But it is able to send it to a Postscript printer. 
There are actually two images in one file, one Postscript image and one low resolution image (e.g. TIF) that is used for preview. 

Purpose
A Platform-independent printing format. EPS should not be used for screen presentation since the low-resolution image is not always displayed correctly.

Advantages
EPS has been a de facto standard within the graphic industry during the last fifteen years and offers a very good printing quality
EPS is mostly used for storing vector information, which makes small files. 

Disadvantages
There are sometimes problems when printing these files on printers that don't not support the Postscript format.
