4000 ID1,ID2,ID3,ID4 
Highlights
- New, ultra-fast printing at up to 1,002 ipm
- Available with 240, 300, or 240/300-dpi switchable resolutions
- Duplex or dual simplex for high-volume printing
- Investment protection with modular upgrade capabilities
Customers demand printing at the highest possible speed and quality. The IBM® InfoPrint 4000
Advanced Function Duplex Printing Systems have the capability to meet those requirements by providing increased speed, improved productivity, reliability, flexibility and investment protection. The
systems offer high-speed, high-volume, duplex continuous-forms printing, while enabling operators to choose the resolution: 240, 300 or switchable between 240 and 300-dots-per-inch (dpi). The newest
family member prints up to an ultra-fast 1,002 impressions per minute (ipm).
Two Stand-Alone Simplex Printers
The Duplex Systems offer an excellent simplex option that allows for two stand-alone simplex printers running independent applications at up to 501 2-up ipm each. The powerful control unit enables the
operator to convert and run two independent simplex printers from the single operator panel.
Investment Protection
As your business changes, your printer can be changed to meet the new requirements. Currently installed IBM 3900 or 4000 Wide Simplex or Duplex
printers can be upgraded to IBM InfoPrint 4000 Duplex Printing Systems. The modular design of the InfoPrint 4000 Duplex System allows 240 or 300-dpi systems to be upgraded to switchable resolutions,
protecting your initial investment.
Leading-Edge Controller
The new, even more powerful Advanced Function Common Control Unit (AFCCU) uses IBM's renowned
RISC System/6000® (RS/6000®) technology. The enhanced control unit provides high-speed throughput capability and gives you the flexibility of switching the resolution to either 240 or 300-dpi.
This allows you to run your 240 or 300-dpi data streams on the same printing system in either duplex or dual simplex mode. This IBM exclusive moves high-production printers one step closer to the
industry-wide, open-systems objectives. Error recovery is another key function enabled by IBM's Advanced Function Printing (AFP) technology. The control unit manages paper jam recovery for the entire system, including the
post-processing equipment.
Pre- and Post-Processing Capabilities
Two pre- and post-processing interfaces are standard features on the Duplex Systems. They provide
added input and output capabilities beyond the standard input source and output stacker. You can select options that are appropriate for your application needs so that productivity can be maximized.
Application Flexibility
The IBM InfoPrint 4000 Advanced Function Duplex Printing Systems support vertical and horizontal
perf-to-perf printing with roll-feed paper. In addition, pinless roll-feed paper can be loaded for maximum efficiency and greater paper savings. Bar codes and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) applications
are also well-suited to the Duplex System's ability to accurately register exact print placement on continuous forms.
In addition, by combining IBM's exclusive page positioning capabilities with the control unit, you can print up to eight logical pages between the two sides of a duplexed sheet. Each page can be a distinct
size and sequenced, rotated and positioned as you wish. This can be easily handled outside of your application programs.
Advanced Function Printing
The Duplex Systems take full advantage of IBM's AFP software for enhanced printing capabilities that include:
- Printing vector graphics, compressed images and text anywhere on the page
- Printing with multiple fonts
- Application flexibility including electronic forms, bar codes and MICR
- WYSIWYG viewing of the document, either before or after printing
