1. The Infoprint 4005 Hi-Lite Color post-processor provides a high-speed, high-quality, all-points-addressable (APA)
color printing system to complement the industry-leading quality and reliability the IBM Infoprint 4000 ID1/ID2
Wide or Wide Duplex printers (240 dpi models). Visit the IBM Printing Systems Inter page at
http://www.ibm.com/printers for more information about the Infoprint 4005.
2. Maximum printing rate is the maximum number of pages of the indicated size and configuration that can be
printed at the constant speed of paper movement shown for each printer.Rates for pages of different sizes and
configuration can be calculated by dividing the form length into the printer speed.Actual printing rate will be less
if the printer cannot reach this rate due to complexity or density of the data or the ability of the system to deliver
data at this rate.
3. Maximum usage is based on operating 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, at maximum printing rate with normal
maintenance and operations activity.IBM does not recommend reaching this monthly maximum on consistent
basis.
Printable Area
The printable area depends on the size of the form being used. The Infoprint 4000–ID5/ID6 printer can
print from perforation to perforation when using roll forms. However, when printing on folded forms, the
printing may be degraded in areas near a folded perforation, an internal perforation, or any cut in the form
because of the “tenting”(fold memory) of the form.
Figure 36on page 97 shows examples of the printable areas of a standard, letter-size roll form for a
Infoprint 4000–ID5/ID6 printer. Notice that the media origin is located in different corners for wide and
narrow forms. Although the maximum printable area for narrow forms is 8.5 by 17 inches, and the
maximum printable area for wide forms is 17 by 17 inches, the examples show the printable area for
letter-size forms.
