Reliable price performance
The IBM Infoprint Color 8, with a speed of up to 8 full-color pages per minute, is twice as fast as comparable products in the same price range. The high-performance 200 MHz MIPS R5000 processor allows fast printing even with complex documents. The printer's straight, single pass paper path optimizes printing speed and reliability, while allowing for greater media choices, including labels, transparencies and card stock.
Optimal print quality
Utilizing Heidelberg® color technology, the printer can produce sharp, clear text and vibrant color images. With optimized color-matching capabilities, you can produce documents with higher color fidelity.
Management and control
The IBM Infoprint Color 8 can monitor itself and send e-mail alerts to the network administrator. You can remotely monitor the printer's status and change its configuration via a Web browser using Web pages embedded in the printer. The Infoprint Color 8 also supports the monitoring portion of the Network Printer Manager (NPM) Utility.
