printer’s operator interface.

two-line by 16-character liquid crystal

display (LCD), six buttons and one

indicator light. Use the buttons to open

a menu, scroll through a list of values,

change printer settings and respond to

printer messages. The LCD operator

panel presents more than 50 easy-to-

feeder.”

Power saving “Eco-mode”

From the operator interface, you can

select menu items and associated

values to help print your jobs success-

fully. Select the print media using the

Paper Menu. Use the Finishing Menu to

define how the printer delivers output—

collated, with borders, or multi-page

images on one page.

Obtain networking flexibility

The Infoprint 1612 Express offers flexi-

ble networking options—including

wireless. With wireless capability, you

can relocate printers quickly and easily

without the cost and delay associated

with physical cabling. Boost the

productivity of mobile workers by

allowing them convenient access to the

printer on a highly secure wireless LAN.

Expand the range of paper sizes and types

The most commonly used media can

be loaded in the standard automatic

250-sheet paper feeder. The second

paper source, the single-sheet manual

feeder, conveniently located at the front

of the printer, can be used for special

paper, transparencies, envelopes, paper

labels, card stock, or index stock.

You

can add the optional 550-sheet drawer

to increase paper options, reduce inter-

vention and improve user productivity.

The 250- and 550-sheet drawers can

be adjusted to accommodate legal or

folio size paper.

The easy-to-access output bin on top

of the printer holds up to 150 sheets.

The single-sheet rear exit provides a

straight-through paper path to help

reduce curling and potential jams—an

especially important feature for specialty

media.

Increase team productivity

Print multiple page images on one

page to save time, save paper and

save storage space. Use the “Booklet”

setting to print multiple pages in book-

let form without having to re-format

your document. Create posters without

a wide-format, specialty printer by

printing a single image across several

pages, which can be combined to

create one large image.

Add printing capabilities

Use optional flash memory to print

watermarks or overlays—such as

company logos or letterheads—

decorative borders and simulated

preprinted forms. You can also use

flash memory to enable third-party

solutions and custom fonts.

Manage the printer

The network model Infoprint 1612

Express has a resident Web page,

which you can access from your

browser. The resident Web page

features a real-time status window, and

it can report printer and supplies status,

printer settings, e-mail status alerts and

printing statistics. This management

tool also provides a “mirror” of the

messages that await you at the printer

on the operator panel.

Keep it simple

The Infoprint 1612 Express is shipped

with a setup guide to facilitate easy

installation. Designed for easy replace-

ment, the toner and photoconductor

cartridges are the Infoprint 1612’s only

supply items. The two-piece imaging

system can help keep your supplies

cost low—you pay only for the piece

you need when you need it.

Make a timely change

With features generally found in higher

priced printers, the Infoprint 1612

Express is a perfect choice to replace

older printers or expensive inkjet

printers while you improve speed and

quality and save money.

Keep costs down

The new “Eco-mode” option is

designed to reduce power consumption

along with noise pollution and reduce

unnecessary paper usage.
