The powerful 625 MHz processor and 256 MB of standard memory enable the
Lexmark W840 to print at up to 50 letter size pages per minute with a time to
first page of as little as seven seconds. Its duty cycle of up to 300,000
pages per month make it rugged enough for the most demanding environments.
"There are a wide range of business disciplines, such as computer-aided
design and manufacturing, where wide-format printing is a requirement but high
performance used to be only a luxury," said Paul Rooke, Lexmark executive vice
president and president of its Printing Solutions and Services Division. "With
the Lexmark W840, high performance is now standard in wide-format printing
thanks to the exceptional quality, speed and durability of this printer."
Ease of Use
The Lexmark W840 features an innovative user interface that is also
available on the Lexmark T640, T642, T644 and C920 introduced by Lexmark
today. The intuitive, customizable display provides outstanding ease-of-use
with on-screen graphics that help with simple printing tasks. With "show me"
screens that illustrate an area needing intervention and "tell me more"
screens that walk users through specific adjustments, the operator panel helps
customers help themselves and reduce the need for technical support.
Flexibility
Internet bookmark printing, a standard feature of the Lexmark W840 network
printer, allows users at the printer to easily select and print documents like
benefit forms, training manuals and Web pages directly from the Internet
without using a computer. Even documents with more than 200 pages are easily
handled with the Lexmark W840's optional duplex and advanced finishing
capabilities. There is also a convenient USB Direct interface at the operator
panel that allows the user to print PDF files directly from flash memory
devices.
The Lexmark W840 can be configured with a wide range of value-added
capabilities. Drawers can be added to raise the paper input capacity to 5,100
sheets, and an optional finisher can raise the output capacity to 3,750.
Finishers can also be added to provide multi-position stapling, offset
printing, duplexing and hole-punching - including the new two-hole punch at
the top that is tailored for healthcare applications.
