As a multi-functional printer, the IBM InfoPrint 1372 printer with IBM InfoPrint 1372 toner cartridge has been designed to accommodate workgroups of any size. With the options of using the unit for a copier and a fax, as well as a printer, this all-in-one unit can be primed for efficiency by taking advantage of the consolidation option. Consolidation IT hardware is included with the unit. As an added bonus, set-up and installation is made easier by its compatibility with both the Mac and the PC and the ability to connect using only either a USB cord or parallel port.Increasing the total RAM is recommended for users to obtain the unit's maximum efficiency. This device uses PC-100 memory. It is sold with a fixed memory capacity of 64 MB, which can be increased to 320 MB. By replacing memory modules in both memory sockets with modules of the highest capacity, users can acquire premium performance. As per general specs, it is usually necessary to remove and replace all of the installed memory modules in order to obtain the highest memory capacity.Using the official utilities and driver program will provide optimal results. The IBM M22, M26 and M30 MFP are the available consolidation options. Photocopying, scanning, faxing and e-routing are provided through the M22 and M26 options. With the M22 option comes the AIMPLEX scanner that is capable of working at 15 impressions per minute. With the M26, color becomes available. Scanning capabilities of up to 23 pages per minute in monochrome can be had with the M30 MFP.The ability to designate the specific functions to the printer allows workgroups to delegate hardware more efficiently. With a high duty cycle and a monthly usage of 225,000, the unit operates on a 500 MHz processor and has the ability to print up to 45 pages every minute. The unit has a depth of 20.21 inches and a total media capacity of 600 sheets. The paper loading trays can carry a combined load of 350 sheets, with 250 in the loading d rawer, and 100 in the manual feed tray. Additionally, the 1372 offers advanced finishing options, a smart stapler, a 5 bin mailbox and legal-sized paper support.Without the addition of the M26 consolidation option, printing is only in monochrome. However, this model touts the ability to print web images and has a resolution of 1,200 x 1,200 dpi. In networks with multiple printing options this unit outshines in high volume jobs and leaves the slower, less efficient hardware available for less demanding jobs.With the ability to increase RAM, photocopy and fax, the IBM InfoPrint 1372 is also an optimum space saver within the office and can eliminate the need to lease or service additional machines in order to fulfill office needs. This product also offers network scanning, allowing users to access documents through the print, fax and photocopy features of the machine. By consolidating all of these features, users are able to combine FTP and e-mail scanning on the one unit. When one function is in need of repair, the remaining functions can continue to be used. Each module can be replaced or repaired independent of the others.If the use of the printer is maximized, overall economic efficiency is improved within the company's IT department. Wait time is minimized for even larger jobs, and device maintenance and repair expenditures are lowered. This is a documented trend within the work community. By minimizing hardware, companies minimize supply companies and the amount of supplies required to function.The InfoPrint series was born of a desire to remain competitive within a competitive market that had been leaning towards hardware consolidation for several years. The InfoPrint 1372 is time effective in its ability to perform multiple tasks and produce high quality prints rapidly. Making memory upgrades and taking advantage of consolidation options only further increase the level of efficiency and productivity. As the workhorse of the InfoPrint serie s using IBM InfoPrint replacement toner helps maintain its cost effectiveness even without upgrades, outshining the competitors with its rapid 45 page per minute production.
