Green Printers for a Green PlanetLike all members of the Optra laser printer family, the Optra N is Energy Star compliant. It features a 15,000 page recyclable toner cartridge, ozone-free electrophotography and a PowerSaver mode. To save paper and trees the Optra N is capable of multiple-up printing (up to 16-up) and optional duplexing, fitting multiple pages on a single sheet of paper.
A Range Of Paper Handling and Capacity That Keeps You Ahead Of The Pack
In addition to great print quality, incredible performance and superior printer management, the Lexmark Optra N also offers you a broad range of options for increased paper handling flexibility and capacity.
Expanded Input
For high-volume printing, the optional 2,000-sheet input drawer will expand your capacity to over six reams (3,100 sheets) of paper to handle print jobs from multiple users.
Connectivity is the cornerstone of every Lexmark network printing solution. The Optra N is no exception to the rule that Lexmark provides the most extensive connectivity options available today. To give you maximum flexibility and choice, the Optra N can accommodate up to two internal network adapters (INA) simultaneously while still receiving and handling print jobs via the standard parallel and serial connections.
Lexmark's own INA solutions include the MarkNet XL adapter providing direct connection to Token-Ring and Ethernet networks. A truly universal connectivity solution, MarkNet XL's support all the major client and network operating systems and will automatically use the appropriate protocols: DLC/LLC, IPX/SPX, AppleTalk and TCP/IP .There is also a model available for a LocalT alk environment. In addition, Lexmark's new Twinax and Coax solutions provide connectivity to IBM mainframe and midrange environments.
If this were not enough, the Optra N supports a wide range of third-party solutions for other environments.
Duplexer
The Optra N duplex option performs two-sided printing. The duplexer installs quickly and easily inside your Optra N. There are no plugs or cables. Your Optra N automatically recognizes that the duplexer has been installed.
Envelope Feeder
The optional envelope feeder holds up to 100 envelopes. Like the duplex option, installation is quick and easy without the fuss of cables and plugs.
