Specifications

Assuming all other variables are optimal, the initial printout time clocks in at under 8.5 seconds on average. The print quality of this device is contingent upon the operating system in use. For instance, outputting on Windows 95, 98, Me, NT4.0, 2000 or XP produces a resolution of 1200 dots/inch (dpi), an HQ1200, 600 dpi, with the minimum resolution being 300 dpi.

The Linux and Mac OS operating systems follow a similar trend, but it is important to note that the DOS command has a maximum print resolution of only 600 dpi. However, what sets this printer apart are its essential controller qualities. It boasts an inbuilt processor with a speedy 266 MHz and an internal memory of 32 MB. For those who require more memory, there are options available such as 1 DIMM (144pin) and slot input options including 64 MB, 128 MB, 256 MB, and 512 MB. Furthermore, the memory can be expanded up to 544 MB, making this printer a top contender in its class.

When it comes to connecting this printer to a PC, there are various input connectivity options available. One way is through the standard USB 2.0 hi-speed port, while another option is through the Ethernet LAN port with a 10/100Base-TX and IEEE 1284 parallel. To ensure compatibility with multiple devices, the printer supports a range of protocols, including ARP, RARP, BOOTP, ICMP, APIPA, and WINS/NetBIOS, among others.
