with 64 Mbytes of RAM. The Phaser 860B can be upgraded to configurations of 64, 128,
192 and 256 Mbytes of RAM using combinations of 64- and 128 Mbytes RAM
SODIMMs. The Phaser 860B does not support networking or High-resolution/Photo

has all the same features as the Phaser 860B model.
The Phaser 860DP.
128 Mbytes of RAM and includes additional features like 2-sided printing, job pipelining
and High Resolution Photo mode.
The Phaser 860DPF.
860DPF has all the features of the Phaser 860DP printer, but adds a High-capacity paper
tray and 3 years of on-site service.
The Phaser 860DX.
Phaser 860DP printer, but includes a High-capacity Paper Tray and an internal IDE hard
drive.
All printers support five available paper trays: Two A and A4 trays are meant for paper
and low volumes of transparencies; two other A and A4 trays are meant for label stock and
high-volume transparencies; and a legal size paper tray which comes with an output bail.
There is an optional 500-sheet High-capacity Paper Tray Assembly gives the printer a
two-tray capability. With the addition of a second High-Capacity Paper Tray, the printer
has a three-tray capability. (The High-Capacity Paper Tray Assembly is sometimes
referred to as a lower feeder; it only supports paper printing.) The printer can also print
six sizes of hand-fed envelopes.
A 250-MHz PowerPC processor oversees print engine operations and PostScript image
processing. All configurations, except the Phaser 860B feature a 10/100BaseT Ethernet
port (with support for EtherTalk, Novell NetWare/NDS, TCP/IP, DHCP and Windows
Peer-to-Peer). A USB high-speed serial port is also provided. LocalTalk, Tolken Ring and
10Base2 are not supported by the Phaser 860 printer. An internal IDE hard drive can be
installed on the main board for font storage and job accounting, if the printer has DP
features the hard drive will support collation, proof print, saved print and secure print.
An integral bi-directional parallel port (IEEE 1284C with ECP mode) supports printing
and also allows connecting a parallel interface scanner for optical copying support.
