Hardware description
The printer provides 1200 dot-per-inch (dpi) printing. The optional
copier/scanner scans at 600 dpi/ 24-bits per pixel (bpp) and contains
a document feeder that holds up to 30 pages.
The printer prints 15 pages per minute (ppm) on letter-size paper or
14 ppm on A4. With 1200 dpi printing resolution, the printer has
exceptional text and graphics print quality. The simple control panel
and improved paper handling make this product very easy to use.
The printer’s main input tray has a 250-sheet capacity for continuous,
multiple-page printing. Manual, single-sheet printing is possible
through the priority input tray. Both trays are center-justified for all
supported paper sizes. The printer output bin holds up to 125 sheets.
The printer has a very fast first-page-out, at less than 10 seconds.
The formatter board contains 8 MB of ROM, 8 MB of RAM, and an
embedded 32-bit Coldfire V3 processor. There is one DIMM slot
available for DIMM expansion (supporting an 8 MB, 16 MB, 32 MB, or

month duty cycle. For the printer, the standard toner life is 2,500
pages, and the high capacity toner life is 3,500 pages.
