Features 1. Automatic paper loading with no waste paper

The printer has a simple to operate paper feeder. When the paper is loaded into the tractor, the automatic top of edge detection mechanism will position the paper automatically. The printer is able to print from the first page.

2. Split paper form feed end of job When the system is activated, the paper will forward to the end of the job for separation. The printer will retract to loading position automatically when the next print job is submitted.

3. Large capacity power stacker Maximum stacking capacity �3, 000 pages Page length �7~12"

4. Small size The printer size is minimized to permit effective office space utilization.

5. Non-impact page printer The PC45 is a non-impact page printer, which employs the same electro photographic system as regular copiers. It meets the needs of users who wish to produce high speed, high-quality prints quietly.

6. High performance-to-cost ratio The printing speed attained when paper is fed by 25.4 mm per 6 lines (1/6 inch per line) is 3000 lines per minute. The low hardware and consumable costs offer higher cost efficiency than existing competing brands.

7. LED exposure for enhanced printing resolution Exposure LEDs are arranged widthwise at a density equivalent to the printing resolution of 300 dots per 25.4 mm (300dpi) and exposure is executed one line at a time. The PC45 therefore achieves a higher printing accuracy lineation.

8. Flash fusing works on various paper types A xenon (Xe) lamp based non-contact flash toner fusing method is employed, enabling printing on various types of special media such as mailing, other adhesive labels and no-carbon-requiring paper. Furthermore, the use of a horizontal paper transport system permits printing onto thicker paperweights, of up to 204g/•.
