Fuji Xerox Launches DocuPrint CG835

Fuji Xerox has launched the DocuPrint CG835, a color laser printer that prints at 8 ppm in color and 35 ppm in monochrome (A4 long-edge feed). The printer is PostScript^®3^TM compatible and equipped with a variety of print functions. Sales begin in November 2002.

The DocuPrint CG835 is equipped with a print server dedicated for desktop publishing (DTP). With its advanced color matching function and attractive pricing, Fuji Xerox aims to promote the use of the printer in design, advertising and printing companies.

• Uses Fuji Xerox's unique wax toner (oil-less fusing technology) to minimize glossiness, while making it easy for the user to annotate the document with a pen or self-adhesive notes.
• The printer helps eliminate errors before the file is sent to the print process through its warning system, highlighting overprint areas, alerting the user if the image data is in RGB, rather than CMYK, which is necessary for printing, and indicating where lines are too thin to show up in printing.
• The print server is equipped with a high speed Celeron 1.2GHz processor and 1,024 MB of memory so it can quickly process heavy data up to a few hundred mega-bytes with speedy printout from the first sheet. Moreover, RIP^* data is stored on the hard disk, allowing fast reprints without the need for an applications or a PC.
• Accommodates standard paper sizes from B5 to A3, with the ability to also print larger size pages set with A3 crop marks. With the Intermediate Belt Transfer, the machine can accept multiple paper stock, including postcards, thick paper, coated and matt-finished paper, black & white OHP sheets and envelopes.
• With the optional automatic duplex printing function, the DocuPrint CG835 can handle a wide range of paper thickness up to 210g/m². The printer has a paper capacity of 250 sheets in the standard tray and an additional 150 sheets in the manual feed tray. A two-tray optional module can also added, which accommodate 500 sheets each for a maximum capacity of 1,400 sheets in four different paper sizes.
• Compatible with multiple platforms, including Macintosh^®, Windows^® and UNIX Workstation as the interface supports 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX (AppleTalk^®, NetBEUI, TCP/IP and NetWare (IPX/SPX)).
