Introducing the Printer
This section gives you a general overview of the printer, including highlights
and optional features.
General Description
The IBM Network Color Printer is a midrange workgroup printer. It can
produce single-sided black and white prints at a rate of up to 12 impressions
per minute (IPM) and full-color prints at a rate of up to 3 IPM. The printer has a
cyan-magenta-yellow-black (CMYK), full-color laser processor that prints 16
gray levels per color. The printer prints PostScript jobs in Windows,
Macintosh, and UNIX environments.
Highlights
Some of the highlights of the printer are:
• Toner cartridges
The printer uses 4 separate color toner cartridges (cyan, magenta, yellow,
and black). When a toner cartridge is used up, you can replace it with a new
one of the same color.
• Flexible color range
The 4 color toner cartridges offer output in full color, a single color only
(monocolor), or true black (using the black toner cartridge).
• High resolution
The printer has a print resolution of 600
×
600 dots per inch, which results in
laser-sharp output in full color.
• High print speed
The printer delivers up to 3 pages per minute in full color or up to 12 pages
per minute in monocolor (black only).
• Flexible paper handling
The universal paper cassette in tray 1 accepts letter, legal, A4, and JIS B5
paper sizes. It can hold approximately 250 sheets (at 80 g/m
2
) of plain
paper. The auxiliary tray accepts transparencies as well as plain paper. To
increase the volume of paper, you can add an optional tray 2 paper feeder.
Note: This printer does only simplex (single-side) printing. Duplex printing is
not available.
