Consistent High Quality

The Priport™ JP4500 has a 400 x 400 dpi
resolution that delivers impressive quality prints
and copies. To ensure consistent quality, even
with long runs, an automatic sensor adjusts
the print pressure according to machine speed,
local environment temperature and humidity.
The retry paper feed mechanism also helps
ensure streamlined paper handling reliability
on long print runs. A series of image modes
guarantee this same high quality on photos,
graphics and tints, enabling users to create
professional looking documents. The advanced
design of the new master system creates a
solid image. Surprisingly, this high quality is
achieved by using less ink. In terms of consum­ables this results in a lower cost per page.
