systematic issue identification and resolution

Enterprise console systems help maintain peak system perform- ance and availability while reducing support costs in a corporate computing environment. Incorporating MetaConsole™ tech- nology licensed from Netaphor™ Software, WORKiO can be set

beyond stand-alone printer performance

Built to measure up to the tough day-to-day high-volume demands of the busiest environments, the durable printer engine pumps out high-quality prints at up to 45 ppm – more than triple the speed of most single-function office printers. In addition, its A3-size output capability is uncommon in standard PC printers.

leveraging your network with connectivity

WORKiO is about sharing networked resources and multiplying their effectiveness. With the standard 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface, the DP-4530 immediately enables all net- worked PCs to access the power and performance of network printing from the desktop. A parallel interface is also included for direct connection to a dedicated PC.

Mail Box or Security Box space on the optional hard disk can be assigned to a maximum of 100 users for storage of printing data inside the WORKiO DP-4530. Data is sent from the user‘s PC to the Mail/Security Box and can be printed at a later date. The security of 8-digit User IDs and 4-digit passwords is available to protect sensitive documents.

friendly graphical drivers

Easy-to-install graphical printer drivers empower users with full control of versatile printing functions right from the desktop. From the intuitive tabbed interface to on-screen graphical preview of job settings, everything is designed to maximize ease of use and eliminate costly errors.

quality in detail

True 600 x 600 dpi resolution is more than enough image quality for professional-quality documents. However the DP-4530 raises the bar with Panasonic’s Image Enhancement Technology and produces quality equivalent up to 1,200 dpi for even smoother gradations, sharper details, and superb photos and graphics. Small text is easily legible even against background graphics. In addition to standard Windows GDI printing, WORKiO DP-4530 offers optional modules and drivers to expand printing versatility with PCL and PostScript capabilities.

Enhanced hard disk erasing

WORKiO gives you choices, letting the user decide on how securely they want their data to be kept, or deleted.

“smart” economy and efficiency

The optional hard disk drive unit enables document storage in mailboxes that can be password protected for secure printing. A security function can be added that overwrites “0” data after print data is output from the hard disk*. Intelligent Job Control Management is another important benefit of the new WORKiO series. The enhanced GUI lets users view the print queue and approximate job times as well as delete indi- vidual print or copy jobs if necessary. The administrator can monitor the device status such as the job queue as well as set up or configure the system via a network. The easy-to-install optional Network Accounting Software can provide detailed usage logs by individual users and departments.

*Consult with your dealer or sales company in order to use these functions effectively.

multi-level security

hard disk data deletion* – A welcome security function that erases data on a hard disk by overwriting it with zero data or random numbers. It can also erase all hard disk data when the computer is discarded. This prevents the leakage of information and eliminates worries about data that would otherwise be left on hard disks.

mailbox – Users can send print jobs to be stored in the WORKiO mailbox. Then whenever they want to print them, for example, at a later time to keep them from being output together with other people’s jobs, the DP-4530 will print them all at once.

secure mailbox – Sensitive “eyes only” documents can be temporarily stored in the secure mailbox. Users enter their ID and passwords to safely print out the documents at any time they choose.

improving images pixel by pixel

Panasonic’s Image Enhancement Technology makes a visible difference in every print. By producing images with the equiva- lent of twice the number of dots per inch of a 600 dpi printer, WORKiO DP-4530 gives documents smoother curves, diagonals and banding-free gradations.
