I.FEATURES

1.High speed printing

Equipped with Motorola's PowerPC 603e, the printer is capable of printing about 32 pages per minute (A4/Letter).

Combination of high resolution printing at 600 DPI and the use of super fine toner offers clear print images.

3. Duplex printing

With the optional duplexing unit installed, the printer can print on both sides of paper.

4. Continuous printing

With the optional paper deck installed in the printer in addition to the standard equipped multi- purpose tray and upper and lower cassettes, up to about 3,100 sheets of paper (75g/m2) can be loaded, enabling continuous printing in large volume.

5. 6-way paper pick-up

Optional 2x500 sheet paper deck and envelope feeder in addition to the standard equipped multi-purpose tray and upper and lower cassettes offer 6-way paper pick-up. The printer can change the paper pick-up source automatically according to the paper type in addition to the paper size.

The printer cuts off the power to the fixing heater when it remains idle for a specified length of time. It can also reduce toner consumption by selecting the economy mode to print light images with less toner.
