Colour-Capable
Laser Printer

The colour-capable workgroup laser printer
at a black-and-white price.

Everything that was once black-and-white has turned into full colour. And that’s exactly the
idea behind the incredibly affordable Phaser 740L colour-capable laser printer. This one-of-a­kind, fully featured network laser printer was developed especially for today’s forward thinking
workgroups. Start off with high-performance black-and-white printing, then step up to colour
any time by simply adding the Colour Kit.

The Phaser 740L colour-capable laser printer is the dependable workgroup printer you and your
team can rely on print after print. Black-and-white pages fly out at 16 ppm. But you never have to
sacrifice quality for speed. At up to true 1200 dpi resolution, your crisp black-and-white images
come alive on plain paper.

Add to all of this network-ready
printing: The Phaser 740L printer ships
standard with a 10BaseT Ethernet
interface. Just plug it in and you’ll be
printing in no time.

With the Phaser 740L colour-capable
laser printer, get the performance
printing you need today and the colour
capability you’ll want tomorrow.

The Phaser 740L colour-capable laser
printer is the latest innovation from
Tektronix. We’re making our name in
business colour printing.

S TRATEGIC PLANNING FOR THE WORKGROUP
