1. General Information

The Lexmark Z51 Color Jetprinter

TM

is an electro-mechanical printer

that creates characters and graphics by composing programmed
patterns of ink dots using a printhead and liquid ink. The printhead
uses small heater plates and nozzles to control ink flow and the
formation of characters on the print media. The printhead assembly
and ink supply are combined into a single-unit, print cartridge,
available as a customer replaceable supply item. Dual printheads
provide color and true black printing without changing printheads.
The number and size of inkjets or nozzles, in the printhead,
determines the overall quality and capability of the printer. The black
cartridge has a total of 208 nozzles and installs on the right. The
color cartridge has a total of 192 nozzles and installs on the left. The
printer is capable of printing in two directions from either cartridge.
