Specifications
The Power ON warm-up time for this machine is impressively quick, clocking in at around 3.5 seconds or less. And the first print out time is equally impressive, taking only about 6.0 seconds. Even its recovery time from sleep mode is swift, taking only about 2.0 seconds or less.
This printer is also versatile in its language support, accommodating print languages like UFR II LT and PCL 6. And for standard production, it comes equipped with an auto-duplex printing feature.
The supported standard paper sizes include A4, letter, legal, Indian legal, and foolscap. Whereas, it allows a print margin of 5 mm at the top, bottom, left and right sides of the paper. But when an envelope size paper is in use, the print margin is 10 mm on all sides of the article. Under scanning specifications, the machine uses a color contact image sensor (CIS). At this level, the optical resolution is up to 600 x 600 dots per inch (dpi).
The driver’s scanning quality has been enhanced to an impressive 9600 x 9600 dpi. When scanning via the platen glass, you can scan dimensions as large as 216 mm x 297 mm. Monochrome scanning speed is swift at 3.0 seconds per sheet, but scanning a colored document takes approximately 4.0 seconds per layer. Utilizing the automatic document feeder (ADF) is the way to go if speed is essential, as scanning occurs at an impressive 20 ipm.
