Minimizing your printer's environmental impact

We are committed to protecting the environment and are continually improving our printers to reduce their environmental impact. By selecting certain printer settings or tasks, you may be able to reduce your printer's environmental impact even further.

Conserving energy

Select the lowest Sleep timeout. The Sleep feature puts the printer in a minimumpower standby mode after the printer has been idle for a set amount of time (the Sleep timeout).

Reduce the screen brightness. Dim the printer display to lower the power consumption of your printer.

Share your printer. Wireless/network printers allow you to share a single printer among multiple computers, thus conserving energy and other resources.

Conserving paper

Print more than one page image on one side of the paper. The Pages per Sheet feature allows you to print multiple pages on one sheet. You can print up to 16 page images on one side of a sheet of paper.

Print on both sides of the paper. Twosided printing (duplexing) lets you print on both sides of the paper manually or automatically (depending on your printer model).

Preview print jobs before printing. Use the preview features found in Toolbars, the Print or Print Preview dialog, or the printer display (depending on your printer model).

Use recycled paper.

Reduce the margins of documents to be printed.

Scan and save. To avoid printing multiple copies, you can scan documents or photos and save them to a computer program, application, or flash drive for presentation (depending on your printer model).

Conserving ink

Use Quick Print or Draft Mode. These modes can be used to print documents using less ink than normal and are recommended for printing documents that are mostly text.

Use font types and font settings that require less ink. Most programs or applications let you adjust the darkness of the colors.

Use highyield cartridges. Inks in highyield cartridges allow you to print more pages.

Preview print jobs before printing. Use the preview features found in Toolbars, the Print Preview dialog, or the printer display (depending on your printer model).

Recycling

Return ink cartridges for reuse or recycling through the Lexmark Cartridge Collection Program. To

return an ink cartridge, go to www.lexmark.com/recycle. Follow the instructions to request a postagepaid bag.

Recycle the product packaging.

Recycle your old printer instead of throwing it away.

Recycle paper from discarded print jobs.

PRO4000, PRO4000C specifications

The Lexmark PRO4000 and PRO4000C are innovative printers designed primarily for small to medium-sized businesses, offering a blend of high-quality printing and advanced technology. These models are well-known for their superior performance, efficiency, and the durability required in today’s fast-paced work environments.

One of the standout features of the Lexmark PRO4000 series is its speed. The printers can deliver up to 40 pages per minute for monochrome documents, ensuring that large print jobs are completed without unnecessary delays. The PRO4000C, being a color version, also performs impressively, providing vibrant color output while maintaining a fast print speed.

Image quality is paramount in any business setting, and both models excel in this area. They utilize Lexmark’s advanced print technology to produce sharp text and vivid graphics. With a resolution of up to 1200 x 1200 dpi, the PRO4000 and PRO4000C ensure that every document, from reports to marketing materials, is rendered with exceptional clarity and detail.

Another significant technology integrated into these printers is Lexmark’s Unison toner system. This system not only promotes consistent print quality but also simplifies the replacement process. The toners are designed to yield a high number of pages, reducing the frequency of changes and, consequently, the overall cost of ownership.

In terms of connectivity, both models provide a versatile range of options. They support USB, Ethernet, and wireless connectivity, enabling seamless integration into any office network. Additionally, mobile printing capabilities are supported, allowing users to print directly from smartphones and tablets, enhancing convenience and flexibility.

Security is another critical consideration for businesses, and Lexmark has incorporated robust features to protect sensitive information. These printers come equipped with secure print management solutions that require user authentication before jobs can be retrieved, ensuring that confidential documents remain private.

Moreover, the Lexmark PRO4000 series is designed with ease of use in mind. An intuitive touchscreen interface simplifies navigation through various settings and functionalities, allowing users to operate the printer effectively without extensive training.

In summary, the Lexmark PRO4000 and PRO4000C are exceptional printers that combine speed, quality, and advanced technologies to cater to the diverse needs of modern businesses. Their impressive features make them valuable assets for any office setting, promoting productivity and enhancing overall workflow efficiency.
