Printer overview
The following illustrations show a standard model configuration and a fully configured network printer
(without the optional staple punch finisher). If you have attached paper handling options to your
printer, it may look more like the fully configured model. For information on other possible
configurations, refer to the Setup Guide.
Standard model configuration
Fully configured
This printer is a network color printer that uses electrophotographic technology to deliver high quality
images, presentation graphics, line art, and text. Its fast output–up to 28 pages per minute (ppm) for
both four-color and monochrome print jobs–makes it the ideal solution for businesses where
performance is critical.
The printer's flexible design allows it to support a variety of printing needs. For example, the "toner
darkness" settings lets you conserve toner when maximum print quality is not necessary. You can
also adjust the printed colors to more closely represent the colors on your computer display.
A variety of connectivity options make the printer an excellent choice for all types of system
environments. You can attach one internal adapter to support network configurations requiring
Ethernet, Token-Ring, LocalTalk, serial, infrared, or additional parallel ports. You can even attach a
class 1 fax modem to the optional serial port and receive faxes directly to your printer.
The printer also offers flexible paper handling. It supports a wide variety of paper sizes, from A5 to
A3, Banner (11.7 x 36 in.), and 12 x 18 in., and has a standard multipurpose feeder that makes it
easy to print on envelopes, transparencies, labels, card stock, glossy, and non-standard size paper.
You can add up to three optional drawers to the base printer, which can increase the printer's paper
