Describing Printer Features and Options
This network printer offers a maximum of 24 pages per minute throughput for high
volume printing environments. The printer provides up to 3100 sheets of input capacity
and supports various sizes from B5 all the way up to ledger and A3 plus duplex and
finishing options. Simultaneous network and host connections, combined with auto-port
and data stream sensing make this the printer of choice for large workgroups.
Network environments require support of multiple printer data streams. The printer
supports PCL5e and, optionally, PostScript Level 2, and IBM's Intelligent Printer Data
Stream (IPDS) as well as SCS.
This printer supports bi-directional parallel, Ethernet, Token-Ring, Coax, and, Twinax
interfaces.
The bi-directional parallel interface is standard and two of the four optional attachment
cards can be simultaneously installed. This printer automatically switches among
printer data streams, interfaces, and networks.
With the installation of IBM's Network Printer Manager (NPM) utility, system
administrators can easily install, configure, monitor, and manage the printer from
remote locations. The NPM utility has been developed using the industry standard
System Network Management Protocol (SNMP) printer Management Information Base
(MIB) ensuring future support and compatibility.
Large workgroups sharing a network printer require heavy duty, high volume printing
with maximum forms handling flexibility. The printer meets these requirements.
The printer supports paper sizes from B5 all the way up to ledger and A3. In addition
to the broad range of paper sizes, output support can be expanded with the addition of
the 2000-sheet finisher option. With the combination of the large input and output
capacities, printing solutions exist for large print volumes and unattended environments.
Besides large capacity stacking provided with the 2000-sheet finisher, two additional
finishing features are provided: offset jogging and stapling. These additional
capabilities make sending multi-copy jobs to the printer easier than ever. For example,
the existing multi-step process of print, copy, and finish can be transformed into an
efficient print and finish one-step operation with the installation of optional features such
as the 2000-sheet input drawer and 2000-sheet finisher.
