The IBM Infoprint 4000 ID3/ID4 is a high-speed, high-production, continuous forms, all-points-addressable duplex and dual simplex printing system that offers switchable 240/300 dpi resolutions (operator selectable) with a choice of throughput speeds of up to 1002 impressions-per-minute (IPM) in duplex or 501 in simplex. These speeds are quoted as 2-up, side-by-side 8.5 x 11-inch portrait. Respective throughputs for European format A4 paper sizes are up to 944 IPM in duplex and up to 472 IPM in simplex.

The IBM Infoprint 4000 ID3/ID4 is equipped with the next generation Advanced Function Common Control Unit (AFCCU) which enables resolution switching from 240 dpi to 300 dpi and vice-versa. With the switchable resolution, you can now print their traditional IPDS production datastreams, in either duplex or simplex, at 240 or 300 dpi resolution.

In addition, the AFCCU enables host-managed, paper-jam recovery through the customer's post-processing equipment, new operator function-enabling flexibility, 256 MB of performance-enabling memory, and support for adding toner while the printer is in operation.

If you are in the publishing, banking, communications, insurance, utilities and other industries that send statements, bills, policies, and other forms of communications to their customers, you can utilize the IBM Infoprint 4000 ID3/ID4 to maximize the productivity of your printing operations. With the capability and flexibility of receiving either 240 or 300 dpi datastreams and printing them at high throughput speed on a single printer, you can have the option of reducing overall printing costs by eliminating redundant printers that up to now were necessary to maintain the capability and options for printing either 240 or 300 dpi datastreams.

The IBM Infoprint 4000 Model ID3 is the first engine of a high-speed, high-production, continuous forms, all-points-addressable duplex and dual simplex printing system that offers switchable (operator selectable) 240/300 dpi resolution with a choice of throughput speeds of up to 1,002 impressions-per-minute (IPM) in duplex or 501 in simplex. These speeds are quoted as 2-up, side-by-side 8.5 x 11-inch portrait. Respective throughputs for European format A4 paper sizes are up to 944 IPM in duplex, and up to 472 IPM in simplex.

Paper Handling

Input Continuous Forms

The Infoprint 4000 IR1/IR2 Printing System has a paper supply capacity of 16 inches (406 mm) of fanfold paper.

Installing special feature number 4710 provides the attachment for high-capacity roll-feed devices that will enable the customer to fully utilize the high-productivity capabilities of the IBM Infoprint 4000 family. Such roll-feed input devices enable continuous printing of several hours between paper loading.

There is a standard splicing station to minimize waste and increase operator efficiency.

Output Continuous Forms

The IBM Infoprint 4000 IR1/IR2 Printing System is provided with a stacker on each engine with a maximum paper capacity of up to 14 inches (356 mm) in height. The actual height may be operator adjusted to limit the weight of the output stack of paper. The stacker can stack paper with lengths between 7 and 14 inches (178 and 356 mm).

The ability to attach post-processing equipment (feature codes 4710 and 4720) allows additional input and output capabilities.

Supplies

Regular Supply Items:

• Infoprint /4000/3900 Toner (P/N 1402822)
  • Unit: 1,360 gram bottle; part number represents one bottle
  • Packaging: Eight bottles per carton
  • Minimum order quantity: Eight of P/N 1402822, which equals one carton
• Enhanced Printing Toner (P/N 1402833)
  • The new toner is a polyester based toner. It will be packaged in a new bottle having a slightly different interlock and a GREEN cap. The different interlock will prevent the new toner bottle from being attached to the Toner Inlet of a printer not having the Enhanced Printing Toner Adapter Kit installed.
  • When printing at 4% coverage on 100 square inches per foot, the Yield (Note 1) = 48,500 feet per 1.5kg (3.3lb.) bottle.
  • High-Speed Printers (Model IS2, ID3, ID4) and High-Resolution (Model IR1, IR2, IR3, and IR4) may experience a yield approximately 10% less (43,600 feet per 1.5kg bottle).
• Infoprint 4000/3900 Developer Mix (P/N 1402823)
  • Unit: 3.5 kilogram bottle; part number represents one bottle
  • Packaging: two bottles per carton
