Description

InfoPrint 1832 is the replacement for the InfoPrint 1532 workgroup printer. This monochrome laser printer offers faster printing of up to 45 ppm(1) on letter size media and up to 43 ppm(1) on A4 size media. The time to first print is as fast as 7.5 seconds. The printer come in the following models:

 Standard Maximum Standard
Model memory memory USB Processor Duplex 10/100BaseTX
----- -------- ------- -------- --------- ------- ------------
n01 128 MB 640 MB Standard 500 MHz Optional Yes
dn1 128 MB 640 MB Standard 500 MHz Standard Yes

All models include one 250-sheet drawer and a 100-sheet multipurpose feeder (MPF) for a total input capacity of 350 sheets standard. Up to four optional input drawers are supported for a maximum input capacity of 4,000 sheets. Standard output capacity is 350 sheets with a maximum output capacity of 2,750 sheets.

Memory

All models have one slot for additional SDRAM memory. Memory options for the printer include 128 MB, 256 MB, or 512 MB memory DIMMs. All models have one slot the optional 256 MB flash memory card and one slot for an optional hard disk.

Network connections

All models include internal Ethernet 10/100BaseTX as standard.

The internal wireless feature allows the printer to be connected directly to a wireless LAN. This supports the IEEE 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n draft 2.0 standards. Draft 2.0 refers to the version of the not-yet-ratified IEEE 802.11n standard.

Usage rates

The maximum monthly usage for the InfoPrint 1832 is 200,000 impressions. InfoPrint Solutions Company does not recommend printing to the monthly maximum on a consistent basis.

Print quality

The print resolutions supported by the printer are:

  • 1200 x 1200 dpi
  • 2400 Image Quality
  • 1200 Image Quality
  • 600 x 600 dpi

The Toner Darkness setting offers 10 user-selectable settings to balance print darkness and toner savings. The higher the setting, the darker the print (that is, level 1 is the lightest). The printers ship with a default setting of 8. From level 8 to level 1 offers up to 50% toner savings, thus reducing the cost of printing. The Toner Darkness setting is available through the operator panel under the Quality menu and also accessible from the print driver.

The Automatic Darkness Adjustment system is designed to adjusted toner density in order to achieve a common print darkness across environments, through cartridge and printer life, and between cartridges. This is achieved by measuring real-time print darkness at predetermined intervals throughout cartridge life. Automatic Darkness Adjustment will allow for greater reliability in print quality and uniformity across all cartridges and printers. All this is achieved with no impact to printer performance.

Font support

The InfoPrint 1832 printer resident fonts include support for following:

Emulation Number of scalable fonts Number of bitmapped fonts
------------ ------------------------ -------------------------
PCL 6 89 2
PostScript 158 0
PPDS 39 5

The fonts in the PCL emulation are compatible with the fonts in the HP LaserJet 4550 and include nine additional fonts and many extra symbol sets to support extra languages and applications. Included in the PCL emulation are OCR-A, OCR-B, and Code 3 of 9 barcode fonts. The fonts in the PostScript emulation are compatible with all 136 fonts in Adobe PostScript 3 and include 22 additional fonts.

Additional fonts can be downloaded to the printer RAM, optional user flash, or the hard disk.

Included on the CD-ROM shipped with the printer are screen fonts to match the printer's resident scalable fonts. The Software and Documentation CD also include a variety of downloadable fonts for Hebrew and Arabic.

Technical Description


Performance Specifications

The InfoPrint 1832 maximum print speeds are shown in the following table. Actual performance depends on:

  • Interface to the host (parallel, USB or network)
  • Host system and application
  • Page complexity and content of the page
  • Certain printer options installed or selected with the printer
  • Available memory in the printer
  • Media size, media type, and tray source
  • Printer resolution

Note: The following special cases that may impact print speeds:

  • Nearly narrow media is defined as media that is wide enough to contact the narrow media sensor but is still not wide enough to continuously run at rated speed (but is dependent on media length), i.e., media approximately 170-209mm in width. Examples are: Executive, and Custom Size media whose width falls into this category. IMPORTANT - When using custom size media, it is critical that the user define the actual width via the Paper Menu - Universal Setup on the op panel for best reliability.
  • Narrow media is defined as media that does not contact the narrow media sensor, i.e., media approximately < 170mm in width. Examples are A5 and custom size media whose width falls into this category.
  • Envelope conditioning (or thumping) is limited to a max 40 ppm process speed for best reliability. Note that if more than 10 envelopes are fed, they will slow even further due to the narrow media requirement.
  • Envelopes in general are fed at a slower speed than other media for best reliability.
Media Width Category Media Width (mm) Page count before slowing down
-------------------- ---------------- ------------------------------
Nearly Narrow 170 - 209 35
Narrow 0 - 169 10
Envelope 0 - 169 10


The table below specifies throughput based on resolution and media size. For a complete range of media sizes supported, see Media Support.

The InfoPrint 1832 time to first print are shown in the following table:

Time to first print (TTFP)
------------------------------------------
Time from standby mode 7.5 sec


Note: Time to first print (TTFP) is the amount of time it takes to print the first page of a print job. TTFP test measure the average time it takes from pressing the "Enter" button on the keyboard to the page exiting the standard output bin.

Print Speeds are shown in the following table:

Media Size Tray 1
---------------------- ------
simplex thru-put up to
Letter (PPM) 45
A4 (PPM) 43

duplex thru-put up to
Letter (PPM) 36
A4 (PPM) 35

Print Area

The InfoPrint 1832 printable area is limited to within 4.2 mm (0.167 in.) of top, bottom, left or right edges of the media. Any information placed outside this specified printable area will not print.

Media Support

The printer comes standard with one 250-sheet paper drawer and a 100-sheet multipurpose feeder (MPF). A 350-sheet output bin is standard. See table below for standard and maximum media capacities.

Additional Media Guidelines for InfoPrint 1832

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 220 deg C (446 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.

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.
  • Rough-edged, rough or heavily textured surface papers, or curled papers.
  • Recycled papers that fail EN12281:2002 (European).
  • Paper weighing less than 60 g/m2 (16 lb).
  • Unsuitable papers include multipart forms and documents; chemically treated papers; coated, synthetic and thermal papers; and preprinted papers requiring a high degree of registration.
  • Recycled paper less than 80g/sqm may cause unacceptable results.

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.

Envelopes

  • If envelope wrinkling occurs refer to the User's Guide for correct loading and stacking of envelopes.
  • All envelopes should be new, unused, and without package damage.
  • Envelopes with excessive curl or twist exceeding 6.0 mm, those stuck together, those with bent corners or nicked edges, or those that interlock should not be used.
  • Minimum weight: 75 gsm (20lb.)
  • 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
  • For best results, printing on new 90 gsm (24 lb.) sulfite or 25% cotton bond envelopes is recommended.
  • Under high humidity conditions (over 60%) the 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 InfoPrint 1832
  • Single-sided transparencies designed for color laser printers may not work well

Labels

Labels should be selected using guidelines found in the User's 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

Due to the InfoPrint 1832 print technology, 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 User's Guide for additional media specifications.

  • IPDS PDF417, DataMatrix, Maxicode and Quick Response (QR) 2D bar code support in the bar code tower.
  • United States Postal Service 4 state bar code support (Intelligent Mail Barcode).
  • Download DBCS outline and bitmap fonts from the host in IPDS. Support for Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, and Japanese is provided.
  • Supports downloaded True Type fonts
  • Capture bitmap or outline fonts to an optional flash memory or optional hard disk using AFP/IPDS and PSF. This results in reduced network traffic over local area networks.
  • Supports TN3270E or TN5250E SCS (LU1) over the LAN using TCP/IP with Telnet.
  • Emulates common IBM IPDS and SCS printers.
  • Automatic resolution sensing for IPDS when the Host Resolution menu item is set to Auto. Selecting Auto allows 240, 300 and 600 dpi resources to be downloaded from the host.
  • Product Identifier Self Defining Field Information is returned to the host with IPDS. Device type, serial number, printer code levels and printer name are returned to the host. These may be displayed at the host to aid in printer location and maintenance.
  • Print PostScript, PCL, AFP/IPDS, SCS, and other local area network printer documents from mainframe, iSeries, or AS/400 systems on one printer.
  • Configure SCS/TNe and IPDS settings using a printer resident web server, a browser, and the printer's IP address.

The IPDS and SCS/TNe Card is an option that is installed in the printer application solution slot. With this card and the standard Ethernet TCP/IP port, the printer becomes an IBM host workstation printer capable of printing AFP/IPDS or SCS documents from an IBM iSeries, AS/400, or mainframe computer.

The printer emulates an IBM mainframe, iSeries, or AS/400 host printer when used with the appropriate host software and this card. The printer emulates one TN3270E printer session and up to four TN5250E printer sessions using the LU1 SCS data stream over TCP/IP with the TN3270E and TN5250E extended Telnet protocol support in this option. This is supported directly from an iSeries, AS/400, or from a mainframe using TCP/IP or through any TN3270E capable gateway that supports TN3270E according to RFC 2355. The DSC/DSE or SCS data streams over LU3 or LU0 are not supported. The Telnet protocol function is only supported with the printer through the standard Ethernet network port or with the internal print servers.

The printer can be configured to save IPDS resources when attached to a LAN through the standard Ethernet port. This will improve performance on complex IPDS print jobs with host resources such as fonts, overlays, or page segments.

The IPDS emulation supports the IPDS data and resource towers. Fonts can be downloaded, captured and saved to an optional flash memory or optional hard disk in the printer. The US Postal Service (USPS) POSTNET bar code, USPS PLANET bar code, USPS 4 slate bar code, and the euro currency symbol are supported within IPDS. The euro currency symbol is also supported in the SCS, PostScript and PCL 6 emulations.

DBCS characters in Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, and Japanese can be downloaded and printed from the host. DBCS fonts may be stored in flash memory or on the hard disk using the Font Capture feature to reduce network traffic and transmission time. The separate DBCS Font Cards cannot be used with the IPDS and SCS/TNe Card.
