The IBM 1332 Laser Printer – Inexpensive And Dependable Printing For Workgroups
The IBM InfoPrint 1332 printer is a workgroup monochrome type of laser printer. It’s suitable for today’s busy office environment. With the printing technologies inside it, consistent and professional-looking printouts are produced. There’s also room for expansion that enables this machine to extend its functionality. Since it uses a high-yield IBM InfoPrint 1332 toner, bringing down the cost of printing is possible.
Inside it is a powerful 300MHz processor that allows for producing up to 35 monochrome pages each minute. This number is based on printing letter sized documents. Printing speed varies with the type of document being worked on and the machine’s current settings. A standard 32MB memory is already installed upon purchase. However, it may be expanded to as large as 288MB to have more storage space for day-to-day printing tasks.
Laser printers are widely used because they can produce texts that are free of distortion and with impressive clarity. Keeping that reputation intact is the machine’s printing resolution of as much as 1200 x 1200 dpi (dots per inch). What’s more, IBM has also included the Image Enhancement Technology 1200 IQ. Combining such resolution and enhancement technology, text and grayscale images are rendered with professional quality each time.
An input capacity of up to 350 media sheets can be handled by the InfoPrint 1332. That’s because there’s one 250-sheet capacity tray and another 100-sheet capacity tray available. Now there’s no need to waste time in constantly restocking paper. Monthly duty cycle is set by the manufacturer at 175000 impressions. Meeting this volume limit per month ensures that you get optimal printer and toner performance.
The InfoPrint 1332 can handle a variety of media sizes such as letter, legal, executive, A4, A5, A6, JIS B5, folio and statement. Compatible media types include ordinary paper, labels, card stocks, transparencies, envelopes and others specifically designed to work with a laser printer. Compatible envelope sizes include international B5, international C5, international DL, US 9, com-10 and monarch.
A couple of interfaces are available such as IEEE 1284 (EPP/ECP) parallel and USB. Hooking the machine up to a workgroup is simple, regardless of its scale. It also supports a variety of network or computer operating systems. Maintaining that the operation cost is kept minimal is the high-yield toner cartridge. Additionally, there’s the multi-up innovation to conserve paper usage. This lets you print on a single sheet of paper multiple document pages in reduced sizes.
Printer languages included are IBM PPDS, IPDS, PCL 6, PDF and PostScript 3. Typefaces available are 44 PPDS, 91 PCL 6 and 158 PostScript 3. There’s an optional duplexer unit available for double-sided printing at once. Also, to extend the available functions of the machine, there’s the MFP option present. This allows you to consolidate printing, copying, faxing and scanning capabilities in one unit.
The IBM InfoPrint 1332 printer has a body which measures 16.6 inches x 13.6 inches x 19.6 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 37.5 pounds. Its performance is backed up by a head-turning encasement with curved lines, suitable to grace any spot in the workplace. There’s also a control panel in front with an LCD screen and large buttons to keep operation trouble-free. And when used in conjunction with IBM cartridges, this monochrome laser printer can yield professional-looking documents quickly and consistently.
