OVERVIEW
xiv
Options
The following are options that you can add to enhance the basic capabilities of the
printer:
❐
PostScript
®
option - The PostScript
®
option provides Adobe PostScript
®
Level
II, including 35 PostScript
®
Type 1 scaleable fonts. The PostScript
®
option
includes a rasterizer for TrueType fonts that allows you to download TrueType
fonts as soft fonts. The PostScript
®
option is provided on a PostScript
®
ROM
Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) that you install in the PostScript
®
ROM
DIMM socket on the printer controller.
❐
Hard Disk option - To provide for additional permanent PostScript
®
soft font
storage and disk-based collation, you can add the hard disk to the printer. The
disk is partitioned with the half of the capacity for PostScript
®
fonts and forms
storage and the remaining capacity for temporary internal storage for disk-
based collation when the PostScript
®
option is installed. Without the PostScript
®
option, all of storage capacity is used for disk-based collation.
❐
Input Tray options - The optional input trays include a 100-capacity Envelope
Feeder, a 1,500-sheet Large Capacity Tray, and a Paper Bank consisting of
two 500-sheet input trays.
❐
Output options - The output options include a Finisher, which performs job
separation and stapling, a Duplex Tray, and a four-bin Mailbox.
❐
Network Interface Card (NIC) - NIC unit is available for Ethernet or Token Ring
network. Protocols that can run concurrently include IPX/SPX (Novell NetWare),
TCP/IP and AppleTalk for Macintosh.
☛ Refer to the “NIC Personality Submenu” in this manual for more information.
❐
Memory expansion (supplied by you) - The printer is configured with eight
megabytes (MB) DRAM. You can add DRAM Single Inline Memory Modules
(SIMM) in the two available DRAM SIMM sockets. The DRAM SIMM sockets
accept modules of 4 MB, 8MB, 16 MB, or 32 MB. You can add up to 64 MB of
additional DRAM for a maximum system total of 68 MB of DRAM. Additional
memory allows the printer to process print data at a faster rate and to store
additional rasterized fonts or downloaded font data.
