Indicates the method used to print by this product.

Print technology

Producing a paper copy of information stored on a computer.

Printing

Feature of computer printers and multifunction printers (MFPs) that allows the printing of a sheet of paper on both sides (automatically or manually)

Duplex printing

Maximum resolution

The print speed of a printer for black & white A4 pages, normal quality. The exact speed varies depending on the system configuration, software program, and document complexity.

Print speed (black, normal quality, A4/US Letter)

The time elapsed from the moment the print command is sent until the first page is completely printed in black, measured in seconds (e.g. 5 s).

Time to first page (black, normal)

Indicates whether the device supports automatic double-sided copying.

Duplex copying

Description of copying function (colour or monochrome).

Copying

The greatest amount of detail that can be produced by a copy of a document.

Maximum copy resolution

The number of black-and-white pages processed per minute for standard A4 documents at normal quality, measured in cpm.

Copy speed (black, normal quality, A4)

The highest quantity of duplicates that can be produced in a single operation, measured in copies.

Maximum number of copies

The range of scaling percentages available to increase or decrease the size of the original during the copying process.

Copier resize

Indicates whether the device can combine multiple pages from the original document onto a single sheet of paper during copying.

N-in-1 copy function

Feature of computer scanners and multifunction printers (MFPs) that allows the automatic scanning of a sheet of paper on both sides.

Duplex scanning

To convert a document or picture into digital form for storage or processing on a computer, by scanning it using a scanner.

Scanning

How many pixels a scanner can see. Most commonly, this is measured in dots per inch (dpi).For example, a typical flatbed scanner will use a scanning head with 300 sensors per inch, so it can sample 300 dots per inch (dpi) in one direction. To scan in the other direction, it will move the scanning head along the page, stopping 300 times per inch, so it can scan 300 dpi in the other direction as well. This scanner would have an optical resolution of 300 x 300 dpi. Some manufacturers stop the scanning head more frequently as it moves down the page, so their machines have resolutions of 300 x 600 dpi or 300x1200 dpi.

Optical scanning resolution

The maximum detail level the automatic document feeder can capture during scanning, measured in DPI.

Optical scanning resolution (ADF)

Indicates the type of scanner this product is.

Scanner type

Specifies the available destinations where scanned documents can be sent, such as a cloud service, e-mail address, or network folder (e.g., FTP or CIFS).

Scan to

To send an exact copy of a document made by electronic scanning and transmitted as data by telecommunications links.

Faxing

The speed at which data is transferred by a modem.

Modem speed

The maximum number of pages that can be stored in the internal memory for transmission or reception (e.g. 100 pages).

Fax memory

The suggested volume of printing that can be performed regularly to ensure optimal performance and longevity, measured in pages per month.

Recommended duty cycle

The maximum number of prints/copies made by a printer/copier in a fixed period.

Maximum duty cycle

The product has the ability to print, scan etc. on both sides of a sheet of paper.

Duplex functions

The amount of print cartridges. A print cartridge is a container holding a quantity of ink which is inserted into a inkjet printer mechanism.

Number of print cartridges

The colours that can be produced by the printer.

Printing colours

The set of page description languages supported by the device for interpreting and rendering print jobs (e.g. BPL or BR-Script 3).

Page description languages

Paper tray media weight

Paper handling

With direct printing it is possible to print your photographs or other documents directly to a printer from a compatible device, without the use of a computer.

Direct printing

The device features a socket into which a USB cable can be plugged.

USB port

Number of USB 2.0 ports (connecting interfaces) in the device. USB 2.0 was released in April 2000 (now called "Hi-Speed"), adding higher maximum signaling rate of 480 Mbit/s (effective throughput up to 35 MB/s or 280 Mbit/s), USB 2.0 ports are usually black.
