FEATURES

This printer has the following features:
2400 x 600 dpi Class Resolution
High Speed Color Laser Printing
High Resolution Control (HRC)
Color Advanced Photoscale Technology (CAPT)
Maintenance-Free Toner Cartridge
Universal Media Cassette
Three Interfaces
The printer prints pages with a resolution of 600 dots per inch (dpi) as
default. It also provides higher quality printout which is the equivalent
of 2400 x 600 dpi resolution when using HRC or CAPT.
The printer allows crisp printing in 24 bit brilliant color. The printer
prints at a speed of 16 pages per minute in monochrome mode and 4
pages per minute in full color mode. The controller utilizes a high
speed 32-bit RISC microprocessor and special hardware chips, which
provides a very fast processing speed.
The high resolution control (HRC) technology provides clear and crisp
printouts and improves even the 600 dpi resolution. This mode is
effective when printing text data.
The printer can print graphics in 256 shades for each color in HP
color printer PCL5C™ and BR-Script level 2 emulations, producing
nearly photographic quality. This mode is effective when printing
photographic images.
A toner cartridge can print up to 10,000 (Black) and 6,000 (Cyan,
Magenta and Yellow) single-sided pages at 5% coverage. The one
piece, easy-to-replace toner cartridges do not require difficult
maintenance.
This printer loads paper automatically from the media cassette. Since
the media cassette is a universal type, a number of different sizes of
paper can be used. Even envelopes can be loaded from the media
cassette.
This printer has a high speed IEEE 1284 compliant bi-directional
parallel interface, an RS-232C serial interface, and a modular
input/output (MIO) compatible interface.
If the application software supports the bi-directional parallel interface,
you can monitor the printer status. It is fully compatible with the
industry-standard IEEE 1284 bi-directional parallel interface.
The RS-232C serial interface is an industry standard so that you can
connect it to any computer using a standard serial cable.
The MIO interface allows you to install a commercial MIO-compatible
card. If the card is installed, this interface port can be used for
features such as networking or printer sharing.
