Optional 75 envelope tray
Up to three physical interfaces with data stream sensing.
FLASH
8 MB SIMM containing PCL and PostScript in Bank 0
Future Japanese (DBCS) Font SIMM will be installed in bank 1
The optional IPDS SIMM is installed in bank 2
Optional flash memory SIMM can be installed in bank 3 (such as 8 MB Japanese SIMM with PAGES, ESC/P and 4 MB FLASH)
DRAM
8 MB Standard
3 slots that may support from 8 MB to 32 MB DRAM each (96 MB Maximum)
Internal IDE Disk interface for optional hard drive
One flash SIMM slot (2 MB or 4 MB)
Printer System Attachment Interfaces
Up to three simultaneously active interfaces
Automatic datastream and port switching
IEEE 1284 Parallel Interface (Level II electronics, with a Type B connector) is standard on the printer
Supports compatibility mode, reverse transform, nibble mode, and ECP mode Microsoft Plug and Play Compatibility
Two optional interface slots with the following options:
Coaxial Interface
Twinaxial Interface
Ethernet Interface (supports 10BaseT or 10Base2)
Token-Ring Interface (supports 4 Mbit and 16 Mbit)
Two of the same optional interfaces cannot be installed in the printer at the same time.
Print Quality
The resolution of the print engine is 600 DPI
1200 DPI resolution is supported with controller emulation
IPDS does not support 1200 DPI resolution
Edge-smoothing technology
Eliminates "stair-steps" or "jaggies"
The printer will convert 300 DPI IPDS and SCS to 600 DPI
Printable Area
"Edge-to-edge" printing is permitted for all data streams. For paper ledger size (11 x 17 in.) and
smaller, print quality is guaranteed to only within 4 mm of the border. For paper larger than ledger size, print quality is guaranteed only within 4mm of the short (leading/trailing edge) borders and within 5 mm
on each side. For best print quality, edge-to-edge printing is not recommended.
TonerMiser can increase the yield of the toner cartridge up to two times by reducing the amount of toner
placed on the printed page. TonerMiser will produce a slight decrease in print quality.
Up to 128 levels of gray (Minimum of 64) for PCL and PostScript
IPDS has up to 32 levels of gray supported
Non-specified media and "Full Bleed" capability only out of auxiliary tray.

AFP/IPDS Feature Enhancement for Infoprint 20
This feature offers the following new function: AFP/IPDS (Advanced Function Presentation/Intelligent Printer Data Stream)
Outline Fonts, 240 PEL Raster Fonts and Font Resource Capture. The current AFP/IPDS option part numbers are not changing for Infoprint 20.
End-users and resellers can update current Infoprint 20s with AFP/IPDS options (Feature 4820, P/N 90H0746) to obtain these new enhancements.
AFP/IPDS DBCS Resource HDD feature on Infoprint 20
In addition to the AFP/IPDS enhancements, a new Hard Disk Drive (HDD) is available with preloaded Double Byte Character Set (DBCS) Outline Font Resources. This is important for applications that use
double byte characters. This feature requires the AFP/IPDS feature (feature number 4820) described above be installed as a pre-requisite.
