This printer has the following features:
1200dpi Resolution and 10ppm Printing Speed
600 dots per inch (dpi) with microfine toner and ten pages per minute
(ppm) printing speed (A4 or Letter size paper). The printer also
supports 1200 (H) x 600 (V) dots per inch (dpi) resolution for Windows
DIB graphics. ( It is recommended to add memory when printing in
1200 x 600dpi mode.)
User-Friendly Operation for Windows
The dedicated printer driver and TrueType TM -compatible fonts for
Microsoft ® Windows 3.1 and Windows 95 are available on the floppy
disk supplied with your printer. You can easily install them into your
Windows system using our installer program. The driver supports our
unique compression mode to enhance printing speed in Windows
applications and allows you to set various printer settings including
toner saving mode, custom paper size, sleep mode, gray scale
adjustment, resolution, and so forth. You can easily setup these print
options in the graphic dialog boxes through the Printer Setup menu
within the Windows Control Panel.
Printer Status Monitor with Bi-directional Parallel Interface
The printer driver can monitor your printer’s status using bi-directional
parallel communications.
The printer status monitor program can show the current status of your
printer. When printing, an animated dialog box appears on your
computer screen to show the current printing process. If an error
occurs, a dialog box will appear to let you know what to correct. For
example: when your printer is out of paper, the dialog box will display
“Paper Empty” and instructions for the corrective action to take.
Versatile Paper Handling
The printer has two multi-purpose sheet feeders and a straight paper
path mechanism. From the front Feeder 1, you can load A4, letter,
legal, B5, A5, A6, and executive sizes of paper, and various types of
media including envelopes, postcards, organizer paper, or your custom
paper size. From the rear Feeder 2 you can load A4, letter, legal, B5
and executive sizes of paper. The front Feeder 1 also allows manual
paper loading, so you can also use labels and transparencies.
Environment-Friendly
