Highlights
- High throughput--24 pages per minute printing 600 dots per inch resolution using TrueRes image enhancement technology
- "Total connectivity"-direct attachment to workstations, Local Area Networks (LANs), and traditional IBM hosts
- Network enabled with compatible PCL5e data stream support standard. PostScript level 2 by
Adobe (standard on 24PS model), IBM AFP/IPDS, and SNA (SCS) data stream support are optional
- Extremely fast, high volume printing with large input media capacities and optional high-capacity output finisher
IBM's top of the line workgroup printer offers incredibly fast 24 pages per minute throughput for
high-volume document environments. The IBM Network Printer 24 provides up to 3100 sheets of input capacity. It supports letter/A4, legal, and ledger/A3 sized media plus duplex and finishing options.
Simultaneous network and host connections, combined with auto-port and data stream sensing make this the printer of choice for large workgroups.
Shared Environments
Today's environments require support of multiple printer data streams. The Network Printer 24 supports
PCL**5e and, optionally, PostScript** Level 2, and IBM's traditional AFP/IPDS as well as SCS. The Network Printer 24PS is PostScript ready. This model comes standard with Adobe PostScript and 12
MB of memory. Native support of all these data streams allows for consolidation of multiple platform/application-specific printers to one Network Printer 24.
The bi-directional parallel interface comes standard, and two of the four optional attachment cards can
be simultaneously installed. The Network Printer 24 automatically switches among printer data streams, interfaces, and networks.
With the installation of IBM's Network Printer Manager (NPM) utility, system administrators can easily
install, configure, monitor, and manage the Network Printer 24 from remote locations. The NPM utility has been developed using the industry standard SNMP Printer MIB ensuring future migration support
and compatibility. Connectivity requirements are changing as well. The Network Printer 24 supports bi-directional parallel,Ethernet, Token-Ring, Coaxial, and Twinaxial interfaces.
Performance
IBM's high-speed workgroup printer offers fast throughput at 24 pages per minute for large workgroups.
At the heart of the Network Printer 24 is an exceptionally powerful controller utilizing a 66 MHz processor - the fastest in its class.
Large Workgroup Paper Handling
Large workgroups sharing a network printer require heavy-duty, high- volume printing with maximum
forms handling flexibility. The Network Printer 24 is clearly the network printer of choice to meet these requirements.
The Network Printer 24 supports paper sizes from B5 all the way up to ledger/A3. In addition to the
broad range of paper sizes, output support can be expanded to 2500 sheets with the addition of the high-capacity finishing option. With the combination of the large input and output capacities, printing
solutions exist for large print volumes and unattended environments.
Besides the large-capacity stacking capability provided with the finisher, two additional features are
provided: offset jogging and stapling. These additional capabilities provide productivity advantages and make sending multi-copy jobs to the printer easier than ever. For example, the existing multi-step
process of print, copy, and finish can be transformed into an efficient print and finish one step operation.
