InfoPrint 4100

Business-building speed, quality and versatility

The InfoPrint® 4100 Advanced Function Printing System continues to evolve to meet the requirements of digital publishers and transactional printers. This continuous form, monochrome printer can produce the high image and text quality traditionally available only from cutsheet solutions, on a range of papers. In addition, the InfoPrint 4100 provides one of the highest speeds currently available for electro-photographic printers – as a result, you can increase output volume with fewer devices and less operator time.

When you print statements, Precision Marketing pieces or publications, you can reduce operation costs with the speed and flexibility of integrated pinfed or pinless printing1. Book printers can use the InfoPrint 4100 to help reduce the costs of printing short-run books or technical manuals. Direct mailers and service bureaus can lower costs by running a range of paper weights. MICR capability adds flexibility for you to run all applications on the same production platform at maximum throughput.
