ABOUT THIS PRINTER

Features

This printer has the following standard features. When you need more information on how to use a particular feature, turn to the page indicated at the end of the paragraph.

High Speed and Quiet Laser Printing

This printer uses electrophotography technology by laser beam scanning so that it can print at a speed of 12 pages per minute. The controller utilizes a high speed 32-bit RISC microprocessor and special hardware chips. The quiet printing will not bother you working in your office or at home: max. 49 dB A (printing)/40 dB A (stand-by).

600 DPI Resolution

This printer uses a print engine with a resolution of 600 dots per inch (dpi). Compared with a 300-dpi engine, the quality of the output is far superior. See page 4-28. By utilizing the 300-dpi mode, the printer can also print 300-dpi data, if necessary. (In HP emulation you can select a horizontal 1200-dpi mode by special control command. See page Appendix-52.)

High Resolution Control

The high resolution control (HRC) technology provides clear and crisp printouts and improves even the 600-dpi resolution. See 4-30.

Maintenance-Free Toner Cartridge

The toner cartridge can print up to 6,000 single-sided pages. The one piece, easy-to-replace toner cartridge does not require difficult maintenance. Just install it. See 2-7.

Advanced Photoscale Technology

This printer can print graphics in 256 shades of gray in HP® LaserJet 4+™ emulation and BR-Script level 2, producing nearly photographic quality.
