Speed
Modern laser printers in a business setting must meet the needs of the business itself; and speed is definitely one of those needs. The Epson EPL-6100 delivers on the need for speed. Its 16 ppm capabilities are supported by a powerful 200MHz 64-bit RISC processor and standard RAM that can be boosted to as much as 136MB.
Quality
Image is everything and business laser printers need to have the ability to deliver output quality that is better than good. The Epson EPL-6100 prints quality. While most other printers in this class offer only 600dpi or at best, use processing techniques to simulate higher resolution, the EPL-6100 brings true 1200 x 1200dpi, high-contrast and crisp printing to the workplace.
Intelligence
A truly effective workgroup or network laser printer needs to be more than just a printer. The Epson EPL-6100 is more than just a printer. Its highly intuitive printer driver and status monitor have been designed to ensure printer management is simple and incredibly straightforward. Across the network, consumable levels can be checked, problems identified and settings changed. It’s all about intelligent printer management for the intelligent workgroup or network.
Flexibility
Today’s laser printers need to be totally flexible when it comes to handling different types of media. The Epson EPL-6100 packs enormous paper handling flexibility in a small, desktop form factor. Labels, postcards, envelopes and a variety of paper sizes are all handled with total ease; and with the optional 500-sheet tray there’s an enormous 750-sheet capacity.
Versatility
For a laser printer to be truly versatile, it must be able to deal with any type of print job effectively. The Epson EPL-6100 ensures versatility. When configured for Adobe ® PostScript ® 3™ printing (optional) it becomes an incredibly powerful graphics and page layout printer.
Durability
When a laser printer is used in business, it’s important to know that it can take the rigors of the most demanding environments. The Epson EPL-6100 is built to take in its stride everything that’s thrown its way. With a maximim monthly duty cycle of 15,000 pages per month, a photoconductor drum good for 20,000 pages and 6,000 page toner cartridge*, it’s the small footprint, rugged printer with the durability for which Epson products are renowned.
* Initial toner capacity is 3,000 pages. Replacement toner cartridges are 6,000 pages.
Connectivity
Laser printers in business need to have the connectivity features that ensure they fit in with the existing environment. The Epson EPL-6100 has the connectivity features. For direct-to-PC connectivity, the EPL-6100 has cross-platform support with standard IEEE1284 bi-direction parallel and USB interfaces. With the optional 10/100 BaseT network interface card the printer provides its own Print Server capabilities, easing the load on existing server hardware. No mess. EPL-6100.
