1.1 Features

1.1.1 Feature

LBP5050N / LBP5050
1. Small and low-cost printer
The printer uses a flat in-line cartridge method for the first time in the small printer. This lowers the height and reduces the printer size. The printer uses the
transfer pad and the separation roller to reduce the parts expenses.
2. Intermediate transfer method
The intermediate transfer method transfers toner images to the Intermediate Transfer Belt (ITB) and transfers the images in four colors onto the print media at
once. It realizes a stabilized color-print on various media without being affected by the primary transfer operation.
3. Improved usability
The printer improves usability by using the pullout cartridge and the front side accessibility to the media. This small-sized printer is user-friendly on the space
of the desktop.
