--------- -------- ------- -------- --------- -------- -----------
dn1, dn2 32 MB 288 MB Standard 400 MHz Standard Yes
All models include one 250-sheet drawer and a 50-sheet multipurpose feeder (MPF) for a total input capacity of 300 sheets standard. One optional 250-sheet drawer or optional 550-sheet drawer is supported for a maximum input capacity of 850-sheets. Duplex capability is standard on all models.
Network connections
The InfoPrint 1812 models include 10/100BaseTX Ethernet as standard. External networking features are available for both the InfoPrint 1811 and 1812.
Usage rates
The maximum monthly usage for the InfoPrint 1812 is 80,000 impressions. InfoPrint Solutions Company does not recommend printing to the monthly maximum on a consistent basis.
Memory
All models have one slot for additional SDRAM memory. Memory options for the printer include 128 MB or 256 MB memory DIMMs. All models have only one slot available for either the 64 MB flash memory option, or a DBCS font card option.
Print quality
The resolutions supported are:
- 1200 Image Quality (2)
- 2400 Image Quality (3)
- 1200 x 1200 dpi (4)

Additional Media Guidelines
Follow the media guidelines below for successful printing:
Paper designed for use with xerographic copiers should provide satisfactory print quality and feed reliability. Other types of supplies may be suitable. It is recommended that users test any particular brand for suitability to their applications. Refer to the printers User's Guide for additional media specifications.
Paper
- Rough, highly textured, limp, or pre-curled papers will result in lower print quality and more frequent paper feed failures.
- Colored papers must be able to withstand 200 deg C (392 deg F) fusing temperature.
- Preprinted forms and letterheads should be selected using guidelines found in the printer User's Guide. The chemical process used in preprinting may render some papers unsuitable for use with these printers.
- Unsuitable papers include multipart forms and documents; chemically treated papers; coated, synthetic and thermal papers; A5 paper less than 70 gsm (21 lb); recycled paper less than 75 gsm (20 lb).
- Recycled paper less than 80 gsm (21 lb) may cause unacceptable results.
All paper is either "short-grain" or "long grain", depending on the direction in which most of the paper fibers line up relative to the edges of the paper. Most paper is typically cut long-grain (letter, A4, legal, folio, B5, A6, and executive). Long-grain paper has a grain direction parallel to the long edge of the paper and generally feeds well. Short-grain paper (typically for A5 and statement) has a grain direction parallel to the short edge of the paper.
Paper feed reliability can be affected by media used. InfoPrint Solutions Company does not recommend the use of short grain paper in the following weights:
1. All paper sizes: paper weights less than 64 gsm (17 lb)
2. A5 paper weights less than 70 gsm (18 lb)
3. A6 all paper weights
Recycled paper
As an environmentally conscious company, InfoPrint Solutions Company supports the use of recycled office paper produced specifically for use in laser (electrophotographic) printers. The printers are consistently tested with recycled paper (20-100% post-consumer waste) and a variety of test paper from around the world, using chamber tests for different temperature and humidity conditions. InfoPrint Solutions Company has found no reason to discourage the use of today's recycled office papers, but generally the following property guidelines apply to recycled paper.
- Low moisture content (4-5%)
- Suitable smoothness (100-200 Sheffield units)
- Suitable sheet-to-sheet coefficient of friction (0.4-0.6)
- Sufficient bending resistance in the direction of feed
Recycled paper, paper of lower weight (<60 gsm / 16 lb bond) and/or lower caliper (<3.8 mils / 0.1 mm), and paper that is cut grain-short for portrait (or short-edge) fed printers may have lower bending resistance than is required for reliable paper feeding. Before using these types of paper for laser (electrophotographic) printing, consult your paper supplier. Remember that these are general guidelines only and that paper meeting these guidelines may still cause paper feeding problems.
Unacceptable paper
The following paper types are not recommended for use with the printer:
- Chemically treated papers used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as carbonless papers, carbonless copy paper (CCP), or no carbon required(NCR) paper.
- Preprinted papers with chemicals that may contaminate the printer.
- Preprinted papers that can be affected by the temperature in the printer fuser Preprinted papers that require a registration (the precise print location on the page) greater than +2.3 mm (+0.9 in.), such as optical character recognition (OCR) forms. In some cases, registration can be adjusted with a software application to successfully print on these forms.
- Coated papers (erasable bond), synthetic papers, thermal papers Rough-edged, rough or heavily textured surface papers, or curled papers Recycled papers that fail EN12281:2002 (European).
- Paper weighing less than 60 gsm (16 lb)
- Multiple-part forms or documents
Envelopes
- All envelopes should be new, unused, and without package damage
- Envelopes with excessive curl or twist exceeding 6 mm, those stuck together, those with bent corners or nicked edges, or those that interlock should not be used
- Minimum weight: 75 gsm (20 lb.)
- The following envelopes should not be used:
- Envelopes with windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or deep embossing
- Envelopes with metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars
- Envelopes with exposed flap adhesive when the flap is in the closed position
- Envelopes with stamps attached
- For best results, printing on new 75 gsm (20 lb.) sulfite or 25% cotton bond envelopes is recommended.
- Under high humidity conditions (over 60%), envelopes may seal during printing.
Transparencies
- Use letter or A4-size sheets only
- Transparencies specifically designed for xerographic copy machines or laser printers may be used with the printers
- Transparencies are not supported from either the 250 or 550-sheet drawers
Labels
Labels should be selected using guidelines found in the User's Reference, Complete Printer Reference, or the Cardstock and Label Guide and tested for acceptability. Paper labels are supported for occasional use only. VINYL AND POLYESTER LABELS ARE NOT SUPPORTED.
Print Quality
General Statement
During the life of the printer, components are subject to wear based on usage. Printers continuously operating at or near the maximum duty cycle may require service for replacement of these components to ensure high quality printing and good performance throughout the life of the printer.
Data Streams
- Host Based
- PCL 5e and 6 Emulation
- PostScript 3 Emulation
Operator Panel
Display
Two-line 128 x 32 pixel LCD backlit gray scale display supports two lines of 16 characters per line maximum. The DBCS op panel has a built-in font which allows it to display roughly 8,000 Asian characters in a 16 x 16 pixel format. Two lines of 16 asian characters each can be displayed on the DBCS op panel.
