EPL-N1200
Designed specifically for smaller networks, or workgroups, the EPL-N1200 is a robust and low-maintenance laser printer which caters to the demands of a busy workgroup, yet has the features demanded by individuals within the workgroup.

It offers sharp, true 600 x 600dpi printing at speeds of up to 12ppm ensuring workers receive their printed material quickly and efficiently, thereby increasing the productivity of the users. Advanced Resolution Improvement Technology (RITech) eliminates 'jaggies' for maximum sharpness and clarity during text printing.

Its ability to accommodate a further 62 Mbyte of memory above its standard 2Mbyte configuration, as well as accepting a variety of options, including additional paper trays and various interface cards makes the EPL-N1200 a flexible printer which is able to grow with a business.

The in-built paper tray can feed 250 A4 to A6 sheets of paper or envelopes. Two additional paper cassettes which stack under the main printer unit can each hold up to 500 A4 sheets, giving a total paper capacity of 1250 A4 sheets.

The EPL-N1200 has the flexibility and compatibility that multi-system users demand. With a total of four ports - including two high-speed bi-directional parallel interfaces - it can be locally connected to as many as four different host computers at the same time. And, of course it is compatible with Windows v3.1, Windows NT v3.51 and Windows 95 operating systems.

The EPL-N1200 can be connected to larger multi-system networks by installing an optional Ethernet card in the Type B interface slot. Once the card is installed, it will automatically select the correct IPX/SPX (Netware), AppleTalk, TCP/IP, DLC or other protocol as necessary, allowing the EPL-N1200's high quality, high speed printing capabilities to be shared across a wide variety of platforms. And, because the EPL-N1200 recognises a wide range of printer control languages, it lets users take full advantage of existing document file resources.

The combination of a high speed engine, a RISC processor and an affordable price tag make the EPL-N1200 a very attractive purchase.

The EPL-N1200 comes with 12 months on-site warranty (conditions apply) and an optional 3-year on-site warranty upgrade.
