*1 Actual print speed is 16.9 ppm. *2 The rated life expectancy of each consumable is based on printing under specific
operating conditions such as page coverage for a particular page size (5% coverage per color at 600 x 600 dpi
resolution on letter size paper). The actual consumable’s life will vary depending on its use and other printing variables
including page coverage, page size, media type, print resolution, continuous or intermittent printing, number of color
planes, ambient temperature and humidity.
*3 Additional memory is recommended to insure 1,200 x 1,200 dpi operation regardless of image size, paper size and in
duplex mode. *4 Measured by Panasonic’s method. *5 Depending on the OS, some of these functions are not
available. *6 Requires optional Hard Disk Drive (KX-CLHD1) *7 Printer includes free starter toner cartridge that yields
2,500 pages (based on 5% page coverage per color) *8 User area 6.5 GB. *9 As of March 2003
