The bizhub 180, when equipped with the optional IC-205 printer controller and optional Network Card (NC-502) can operate as an 18 page-per-minute PCL printer, offer 600 dpi output, provide standard PCL6 printing and support a variety of network protocols such as TCP/IP, and IPX/SPX. Print images are RIPped only once even when generating multiple sets of printouts. This process maintains a high productivity level when multiple printouts are made.As a reminder, in its standard configuration, the bizhub 180 offers standard GDI local printing.

Other options available to maintain high productivity levels include a Shift Tray which makes it possible to shift and sort print jobs and Job Separator Tray that outputs all copy jobs to the lower tray and all printer/fax output to the upper tray. When printer or fax output is on the upper tray, a lamp on the system alerts the user that output is on the tray for retrieval. When equipped with the Shift Tray, end users can quickly and easily pick up multiple sets. When equipped with the Job Separator Tray, end users can quickly and easily distinguish between copy output and printer/fax output.
