In today’s business world, color sells. With printed material, color increases readership an average of 40%... Retention of material increases as much as 65% with color versus black and white... People are 55% more likely to pick up a full-color mail piece first...
Use of color on packaging or selling material can increase the likelihood of purchase by 80% or more!
Just as important in your business world: size matters. You design tabloid-size materials to showcase concepts for client approval... You distribute collateral
—newsletters and multi-page brochures — with an occasional full-bleed graphic... And you prefer to reproduce your full-color spreadsheets with full-color charts in full size...
Yet, despite the power of color to capture attention and the ability of size to fully encompass a design and message, they’re still missing from 90% of the business materials printed in-house. That’s because tabloid-format color business printing has not proven to be both cost effective and productivity enhancing.
Until today...
Fast, flexible, affordable color printing — up to 12" x 18"
The OKI® C9000 Series combines everything you want in business color printers: high-quality reproduction, super-fast printing speed, versatile and high-capacity paper handling, ease of use, and low operating costs.
Available in stand-alone or network models, these printers deliver vibrant full-color output at an industry- leading speed of up to 21 pages per minute, and clear, sharp monochrome printing at up to 26 ppm. Individual models come with or can be configured
with automatic 2-sided printing, a 5 GB hard disk drive, up to 1,024 megabytes of memory, paper capacity of up to 2,850 sheets, and 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connectivity via print server cards.
Print your big ideas right in your workspace, not at the neighborhood copy center. “Tabloid extra” paper — the offset printing industry’s term for 12" x 18" sheets, slightly larger than A3 — enables the C9000 Series to print ledger-size layouts with crop marks and full-page bleed color graphics.
It’s the only color for your in-house business needs!
Low operating costs — short term and long run
OKI C9000 Series printers are among the most cost-effective machines on the market today. Under normal day-to-day usage, you can save substantially on the cost per printed page with a C9000 Series printer versus color laser, color inkjet and, especially, outside copy services. Long term, those savings really add up.
What’s more —or less — the cost of a C9000 Series black-and-white page is comparable to t h a t o f m o s t t a b l o i d - f o r m a t m o n o c h r o m e laser printers, so you can replace your slower monochrome printers and use a C9000 Series color printer for all your business printing.
The power of Single Pass Color® Digital Technology
At the heart of the C9000 Series’ capabilities is
acompact Digital LED (light-emitting diode) system. OKI Single Pass Color utilizes four in-line Digital LED printheads and image drums to speed the page through, laying down cyan, magenta, yellow and black toner in one pass. This process enables faster document throughput — allowing you to get more produced in less time.
Conventional color laser printers, on the other hand, require four revolutions of the image drum before the toner is fused and the output delivered. Single Pass Color engineering also allows C9000 Series Digital LED printers to print on various thicknesses of paper media, including heavier card and index stock, as well as labels and transparencies.
From postcards to posters — and lots of them
The C9000 Series brings color to all sizes of business output: postcard, executive, letter, A4, folio, legal, A3, and ledger/tabloid (including oversize versions). The standard 650-sheet paper capacity — 550-sheet cassette and 100-sheet multi-purpose feeder — can be expanded to 2,850 sheets with options. Combine that with specially developed OKI high-capacity toner cartridges and long-life image drums to keep user interventions to an all-time minimum.
A compact Automatic Duplexer — standard on the C9200dxn and C9400dxn, optional on the other models — allows double-sided printing, enabling you to expand your creative potential without sacrificing productivity (not to mention saving paper while maximizing your supplies budget).
Designed and built to perform
High-speed data processing is an integral key to the C9000 Series printers’ professional color output. The combination of Single Pass Color Digital Technology and a power ful 64 - bit PowerPC processor — 480 MHz on the C9400dxn, 400 MHz on C9200 Series models — means less time waiting for your documents to print from your PC or Mac® In addition, built-in automatic color registration ensures that colors are aligned with precision, which enables proprietary Digital LED technology to deliver superb print quality at resolutions up to true 1200 x 1200 dpi (C9400dxn).
Powerful, upgradable memory
The C9000 Series offers a choice of standard memory configurations and upgrades, allowing you to maximize the performance
of your printer now or as your needs for large documents and complex graphics grow.
Both the C9200 and C9200n models ship with a generous 128 MB of RAM. For more intensive graphics requirements, the C9200dxn comes with 192 MB of RAM standard, and the C9400dxn model offers 320 MB. All four models can be upgraded to 1,024 MB of RAM.
The C9200n, C9200dxn and C9400dxn are also equipped with an internal 5 GB hard disk drive (optional on the C9200) to increase their capacity for handling larger digital files.
Flexible network connectivity
The Digital LED Color printers of the C9000 Series can merge seamlessly into any office environment. All C9000 Series printers come with both IEEE 1284 Bi-directional Parallel and Universal Serial Bus (USB) interfaces. They can be configured as stand-alone desktop units or as workgroup printers connected to the network via a 10/100 Base-T internal print server card — an OkiLAN® 6200e — standard in all models except the C9200, for which it’s an option.
The OkiLAN 6200e provides industry-standard network protocols, which include TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, NDS, IPP, SNMP, NetBEUI® and EtherTalk®. It also supports standard Printer MIB and MIB II, and supplies private OKI MIB to enhance network management through access to a wide range of printer menu settings.
Local or remote management
You can manage your C9000 Series printers with off-the-shelf programs such as JetAdmin® or Web JetAdmin® — or you can increase reporting capability by using OkiView® utilities for printer set-up and status monitoring.
With the web server embedded in the OkiLAN card,
C9000 Series printers can be managed remotely: simply type a printer’s IP address into your browser and its current status will be displayed on-screen. Machine usage, toner levels and drum life can also be viewed, and both printer menu and network settings can be adjusted.
Quality. Affordability. Productivity. Proof positive that OKI printers should be your leading source for color output solutions — today and tomorrow.
