CHAPTER I FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS 1. FEATURES This printer has the following features: 1200 dpi Resolution and 6 ppm Printing Speed 1200 dots per inch (dpi) with microfine toner and six pages per minute (ppm) printing speed (A4 or Letter size paper). User-Friendly Operation for Windows The dedicated printer driver and TrueTypeTm-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 Printer Setup within 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, the 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 corrective action to take. Versatile Paper Handling The printer has a multi-purpose sheet feeder and straight paper path mechanism. Using this mechanism, you can load A4, letter, legal, B5, A5, and executive sizes of paper, and various types of paper including envelopes, postcards, organizer paper, or a custom paper size. The multi-purpose sheet feeder also allows manual paper loading, so you can also use labels and transparencies. Environment-Friendly, Economy Printing Mode This feature will cut your printing cost by saving toner. It is useful to obtain draft copies for proof-reading. You can select from two economy modes 25% toner saving and 50% toner saving, through the Windows printer driver supplied with your printer. Sleep Mode (Power Save Mode) Sleep mode automatically reduces power consumption when the printer is not in use. The printer consumes less than 10W when in sleep mode. Low Running Cost The toner cartridge is separate from the drum unit. You need to replace only the toner cartridge after around 2,000 pages, which is cost effective and ecologically friendly. (In some areas the printer is supplied with a starter toner cartridge which must be replaced after 1,000 pages.)
