Specifications
The printer boasts an input paper tray capable of accommodating up to 100 sheets of plain paper, while the output tray can hold up to 50 printed sheets. It is important to note that the standard paperweight requirement is 80 gsm.
Fortunately, the printer also supports an automatic document feeder (ADF) that can hold an extra 35 pages of plain paper. This feature is especially helpful in ensuring a seamless printing process by taking the pressure off the input tray.
The optimal method for linking this printer to a computer is via the conventional USB 2.0 port full speed, and alternatively through the Ethernet LAN network port. The relevant component for the latter option would be the Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX. Additionally, the device boasts an internal memory capacity of 32 MB of RAM, and accommodates an external TAD interface.
The printer’s operational parameters encompass a temperature spectrum of 10 to 350C for regular use, whilst optimal printing quality necessitates a temperature range of 20 to 330C. In addition to temperature, a requisite level of humidity must be maintained, ranging from 20 to 80% without condensation, for both standard operations and enhanced print quality.
This printer boasts an impressive array of features, including speed dialing to up to 100 locations during fax operations, an error correction mode (ECM), remote access, and fax forwarding. Additionally, it offers a broadcasting feature that can reach up to 150 locations and dual access compatibility. With a modem speed of 33600 bps for sending and receiving fax messages, transmission typically takes only 3 seconds.
