INFOPRINT 4100 DISCONTINUED MODEL

REPLACE BY THE NIPSON DIGIFLEX MODEL

Printing is a high speed, INFOPRINT 4100 high volume continuous forms printer that provides you with exceptional reliability, exceptional printing quality and economical printing. With this printing system, you can switch between 240 and 300 dots per inch (dpi) of resolution. Based on the proven IBM 3900 Advanced
Printer Technology feature, the system offers printing of all addressable points in two models.

First impressions at speeds of up to 354 impressions per minute (ipm) for 2-up printing on 8.5 x 11-inch paper or up to 333 ipm for 2-page printing on A4 paper (8.33 x 11.67 inches) . The second model prints at speeds of up to 501 impressions per minute (ipm) for printing 2 in 8.5 x 11-inch paper or up to 472 ipm for 2-up printing on A4 paper (8.33 x 11.67 inches) ).

Cost-effective continuous forms printing of the INFOPRINT 4100 with a 17-inch-wide printing line • 240/300-dpi resolution saber • Speeds of up to 501 two 8.5 x 11-inch units or 472 two-sided A4 prints per minute depending on the model • Powerful control unit with advanced operator interface and flexible accessory capabilities

In addition, by combining the INFORPINT 4100 Printing Systems of the company Unique positioning of the page with the control unit, you can print up to four logical pages on a sheet. Each page can have a different size and sequenced, rotated and positioned as desées. This can easily be done outside of your application programs.

* Longer dimension is with the stacker extended. ** Approximate weights are supplied for customer planning use. Actual weights may vary slightly with machine configuration.

Operating Environment

Print contrast control allows the operator to adjust print darkness.
Achieving optimum print quality is dependent upon paper quality.
Supplies: The IBM InfoPrint 4000 IR3/IR4 utilize InfoPrint 4000/3900 toner and developer mix. The remaining supplies are also the same as the InfoPrint 4000 IR1/IR2 Printing System.
Duty Cycle: The IBM InfoPrint 4000 IR3/IR4 has the following monthly printing capacities.

Paper Handling

Input Continuous Forms: The InfoPrint 4000-IR3/IR4 Printers have a paper supply capacity of 16 inches (406 mm) of fanfold paper.

Installing special feature number 4710 (one comes standard on each engine) provides the attachment for high-capacity, roll-feed devices that will enable the customer to fully utilize the high-productivity capabilities of the IBM InfoPrint 4000 family. Such roll-feed input devices enable continuous printing of several hours between paper loading.

There is a standard splicing station to minimize waste and increase operator efficiency.

Output Continuous Forms: The IBM InfoPrint 4000-IR3/IR4 Printers are provided with a stacker on each engine with a maximum paper capacity of up to 14 inches (356 mm) in height. The actual height may be operator adjusted to limit the weight of the output stack of paper. The stacker can stack paper with lengths between 7 and 14 inches (178 to 356 mm).

The ability to attach post-processing equipment (feature numbers 4710 and 4720) allows additional input and output capabilities.

Paper Sizes: The InfoPrint 4000-IR3/IR4 paper sizes are:

Width:
- 9 to 18 inches (229 to 457 mm; continuously variable) in duplex
  9 to 18 inches (229 to 457 mm; continuously variable) in simplex
  The maximum print width is 17 inches (432 mm).
Length:
- 3* to 25 inches (75 to 625 mm) lengths (in 1/3 and 1/2 inch increments)
  7* to 14 inches (178 to 350 mm) are supported by the standard stacker
  3* to 25** inches (75 to 625 mm) with post-processing
  14 to 25** inches (350 to 625 mm) lengths may be printed but cannot be stacked with the standard stacker.
  When printing 14 to 25 inch form length, suitable post-processing equipment is recommended.

* Lengths less than 7 inches (178 mm) are folded in multiples by the forms supplier and the stacker. (For example, forms 3.5 inches in length may be folded every 7 inches.) ** There are limitations on the maximum page size that can be addressed by an application program. If you have a requirement for a page larger than 22.7 inches, it is recommended you contact your IBM representative or call Techline at 888-426-5525 for a review of the application.

Paper Weights: The InfoPrint 4000-IR3/IR4 printers support the following paper weights:
