All models include internal 1000BaseTX (Gigabit Ethernet) as standard.

The internal wireless feature allows the printer to be connected directly to a wireless LAN. This supports the IEEE 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n draft 2.0 standards. Draft 2.0 refers to the version of the not-yet-ratified IEEE 802.11n standard.

Usage rates

The maximum monthly usage for the InfoPrint 1985 is 300,000 impressions. InfoPrint Solutions Company does not recommend printing to the monthly maximum on a consistent basis.

• 1200 x 1200 dpi

•

2400 image quality3 (default mode)

appearance of greater print resolution within the limitation of a set number of dots per inch (dpi).

The toner darkness setting offers 10 user-selectable settings to balance print darkness and toner savings. The higher the setting, the darker the print (that is, level 1 is the lightest). The printers ship with a default setting of 8. Level 8 to level 1 offers up to 50% toner savings, thus reducing the cost of printing. The toner darkness setting is available through the operator panel under the Quality menu and also accessible from the print driver.

Because of the printing technology, setting 9 and 10 do not provide darker print than the default setting of 8.

Emulation Number of scalable fonts Number of bitmapped fonts
