PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The DP96, DP4635 and DP180 IPS can also print on papers as small as 7 by 10 inches / 178 by 254 mm, with the optional 7 by 10-inch kit. They process paper weights from 16-pound / 60 gsm to 110-pound / 200 gsm.

Jobs also can be printed on label stock, transparencies, precollated stock, tab stock, carbonless paper, and other specialized stocks. The printer engine monitors the print job so that, should a paper jam occur, the job resumes on the correct page, at the correct tab, using the same color paper, etc., providing complete document integrity.

Mixes plex feature — The 96/4635/180 IPS can switch from duplex to simplex printing, and vice versa, without cycling down the printer. The IPS system starts the first job in the plex mode of the first sheet received. If the mode is duplex and a subsequent sheet received is simplex, blank backs are used. This continues until the consecutive simplex threshold is reached. Once reached, the system starts printing in simplex, after clearing the paper path of all duplex sheets. When the next duplex page is received, the system starts printing in duplex, without shutting down. The process starts over, printing simplex pages in duplex mode using blank backs, until the consecutive simplex threshold is reached.

600 dpi resolution — The 96, 4635, and 180 IPS all print at high resolution. The printers can receive data at 240 or 300 dpi (dots per inch) and full-page IOCA images at 600 dpi. All 240 or 300 dpi data is then interpolated to 600 dpi for higher print quality.

The following table shows how data streams of different resolutions are interpolated.

**Note: This is an option on the 180 IPS, requiring a special board to be installed by your service representative. Without this board, 240 dpi data is converted to 600 dpi by the controller.

For the 96/4635/180 IPS and the 96/4635/180 MICR IPS systems it is recommended that all fonts and other resources that are at 240 dpi be converted to 300 dpi before printing, rather than leaving the conversion for the controller to do. This ensures better print quality.

Caution: The 96/4635/180 IPS must have the same font resolution specified as the host input data stream (refer to the Guide to Configuring and Managing the System for instructions on specifying the input resolution). Conflicts between the input font resolution and the IPS specification could result in inability to print the job, or in missing variable data in the output.
