Supported Printer/Copiers
• 5790 l 5760/65
• DocuColor 5750
l DocuColor 5799
Print Speed / System Performance
• The maximum print speed for the Splash M Series server is limited by the print speed of the 5760, 5765, 5790
and DocuColor 5750/5799 copier/printer.
• Overall system performance (‘Click to Clunk’ time) is primarily dependent upon the software applications and
network environment being used. Rasterizing (RIP-ing) is only a small fraction of Click to Clunk time.
• Printing with custom software applications may produce unexpected or unknown results.
• The Splash M Series server is a continuous printer; therefore, the copier will not cycle down between each job.
Printing Resolution
Print resolution for all paper sizes is 400 x 400 x 8 dpi. Printer resolution uses variable frame compression,
therefore, in rare circumstances; lossy compression may be exhibited.
Billing Meters
• Splash M Series provides accurate billing of all color and black & white images in black detection mode.
• When black detection is enabled, productivity will be affected by the copier mode changing from black to full
color mix or from full color mix to black.

Maximum Image Sizes
• The maximum image size from an application is limited to the image size produced by 5760, 5765, 5790 and
DocuColor 5750/5799 copier/printer.
• For 5760, 5765, 5790 or DocuColor 5799, the maximum paper size is 11 x 17 with a maximum printer size of
10.69" x 16.47".
• For DocuColor 5750, the maximum paper size is 12 x 18 with a maximum printer size of 11.69" x 17.53".
• The application and the 5760, 5765, 5790 or DocuColor 5750/5799 copier/printer setup control image position.
Printer Driver Support
• Windows 95/98, Windows NT 4.0 (Microsoft PPDs only are supplied)
• Macintosh (Only PPDs for LaserWriter 8.3.4 for Mac OS 7.5.5 and LaserWriter 8.4.3 for Mac OS 8.x are
supplied).
• No driver support for DOS applications
Features
Diamond Merge Variable Data (M410 only): This technology merges two PostScript data streams together to
create a single output document.
SpotMatch (M410 only): SpotMatch is a drop-down list that, when enabled, performs a SpotMatch lookup for
each spot color on the page. It looks for matches in Pantone, Toyo, DIC, and HKS and supports 100% color and
tints.
Upgrade Strategy
The Splash M Series Servers are new products; consequently, there are no upgrade paths available.
Sorter Options
• If the bin capacity or bin limit is exceeded (5750=10 bins, 5760/5765/5790/99=20 bins), the server truncates
the job. When this happens, an asterisk appears in the job details list next to Done, indicating an error. The
error message in the Show Error dialog box states, “Sorter Capacity Exceeded.”
• The sorter does not support transparencies.
• Auto tray switching does not occur on jobs where the sorter is selected.
• If the number of prints in a sorter job exceeds the capacity of the bins, the job will error. This will also occur if
the number of copies exceeds the number of bins.
Calibration
The M Series server supports a simplified version of the Splash PCI product line ColorCal color correction.
Calibration is achieved via the printer’s ScanBack feature. ColorCal software has been optimized for use with the
printer’s scanner and Splash M Series.
The following functions are not included:
• Verification
• Expert Mode
• Show color curves

Print Quality and Color Management
• The appearance of the document displayed on the monitor screen may not match the output print unless
Splash ColorCal and color correction tools are used.
• For imported RGB images, optimal color is achieved in the EPS and TIFF format. Other imported file formats
may produce unexpected results.
Separations Support
• Combined separations are not supported
