Print Smarter
Most conventional colour laser printing
devices indirectly heat the fuser roller by
a halogen lamp that requires high
energy consumption and long warmup
time. To reduce warmup time for quick
printing on demand, the fuser roller has
to be pre-heated. Reduced energy
consumption or office productivity, which
should come first?
Panasonic has a smart solution for this
dilemma. Innovative Induction Heating
(IH) technologies and a newly developed
heater belt with low thermal capacity
eliminates the need of pre-heating and
maximizes the efficiency of the heating
process to realize the industry-fastest
warmup time while it requires the
industry-lowest power usage.

Quick Start
while Saving Energy
Thanks to Panasonic's IH technologies, the DP-
C322/C262 warms up and gets ready for printing
in only approx. 15 seconds from sleep mode
which consumes only
25W. This contributes
not only to quick colour
document output, but
also to helping consen/e
the environment.
Any system that lets you print faster, more economically and with higher quality has to
be a smart investment.
Speedy resuits
In addition to quick warmup, the single-pass
high speed print engine performs the YMCK
transfer process that generally requires four
passes in one go. The DP-C322/C262 prints
colour documents fast at speeds of up to 21
ppm and 32/26 ppm for black and white.
Intermediate Transfer Belt
Colour Engine
Panasonic has refined all parts
to maximize colour performance.
The Intermediate Transfer Belt,
for example, has high surface
resistance for more effective
and consistent toner image
transfer. The toner itself has
smaller, more uniform particles
for superior image quality.
Superb Print Quality
Single-Pass
To further improve picture quality, Panasonic uses an Emulsion Aggregation
Toner with smaller, more uniform particles. This helps ensure smoother image
reproduction by reducing the roughness of the intermediate tones in photos.
Also, this toner makes the fixation at a lower temperature possible, making the
machines more cost efficient and environmentally friendly.

Superior Resolution
standard. High Picture Quality, and High
Brightness printing modes are provided. And you
can optimize the data processing resolution
for specific purposes. With a maximum resolution
of 1,200 X 1,200 dpi*, you can print fine colour
images that are almost indistinguishable from
the original.

Requires optional page memory
Panasonic’s intuitive graphical
user interface of the printer
driver makes PC printing very
easy and straightfon/vard.
You can also print PC files
(PDF*, TIFF, JPEG) directly
through simple “Drag & Drop”
operation from the file icons
on the PC desktop without
opening the file by associated
application software. Printing
is now quicker and easier
than ever.

Greater Convenience with 5C Memory Card Printing
Here’s real convenience: you can insert an SD card into the machine’s slot and get instant prints without
having to use a PC. You can print JPEG images from a digital camera or PDF*, JPEG or TIFF** files. Images
appear on the panel display as thumbnails***; and to print, you simply just touch it. There’s no need to use the
printer driver or open an application. A PC card slot for various removable media is also provided.

When you print photos* from
digital cameras, each one will
be automatically processed to
maximize contrast for the best
possible sharpness and clarity.
This is especially helpful for
photos taken at night or with
backlighting. Automatic Contrast
Correction is also applied to
photos printed from SD cards or
other memory cants.
