Family 2785+01 IBM Infoprint 2085

The Average Monthly Print Volume (AMPV) for Infoprint 2085 is 300,000 impressions and for Infoprint 2105 is 400,000 impressions.

Copying Capability

Infoprint 2085 and 2105 printers include a digital copier as standard. The copier is extremely powerful but still easy to use. All copier functions are accessed through the large, user friendly, dual language touch panel. Originals are scanned in and a digital representation of the original is created that can be printed on these printers.

Simplex and duplex originals can be copied by either placing them on the scanner glass or utilizing the ARDF (Auto Reverse Document Feeder). The ARDF is a fast and versatile scan feeder, capable of handling up to 100 sheets at a time (80 g/sm, 20 lb). The ADRF can scan pages up to 72 ppm (8.5" x 11" or A4). The scanner can handle a wide variety of paper sizes from 5.5" x 8.5" (140 mm x 216 mm) to 11" x 17" (279 mm x 432 mm).

The ARDF can scan mixed paper sizes and weights in the same stack. The ARDF is also capable of automatic paper size selection and automatic paper reduction/enlargement on a sheet-by-sheet basis. It scans originals at 8 bits and 600 dpi.

The copier also includes an integrated document server and editor. The document server stores up to 250 jobs or up to 5,000 pages. The document server allows the user to scan originals and save the documents onto the built-in hard drive, and print saved documents. All of the available finishing options are available when printing a stored document. Documents can be protected with user IDs and passwords. The document server also allows the user to print a sample copy, insuring that the full print job will be output correctly.

An optional Copy Connect Cable may be used to connect two printers together to load balance copy jobs between two printers. It does not double the speed of the print job. The cable is 10 meters in length.

Overall, the Infoprint 2085 and 2105 copier functions are full-featured and easy to use. The combination of a high-speed digital scanner, a top-notch printer, and exceptional function creates an extremely effective tool for any business.
