Printing
Print Speed / System Performance
The Splash DC Series v4.0 server has 512Mb of frame buffer memory and 256Mb of pipeline buffer.
•
The maximum print speed for the Splash DC Series v4.0 system is limited by the print speed of the DocuColor
40/30 Pro Digital Color Copier / Printer.
•
Splash DC Series v4.0 is a full document printer; therefore, the print engine may not cycle up until the entire job
is ready to print. The copier may cycle down between each job depending on job complexity.
•
Overall system performance (“Click to Clunk” time) is primarily dependent upon the software applications and
network environment being used. Rasterizing (RIP-ing) is only a small fraction of “Click to Clunk” time.
•
Printing with custom software applications may produce unexpected or unknown results.
Printing Resolution
For all paper sizes, full resolution and full color depth is available (400 x 400 x 8).
