1. The 4000–IS2 printer was originally shipped with a print speed of 44 inches per second. All 4000–IS2 printers
shipped after February 17, 1998 (or with upgrades 9324 or 4260 installed) have a print speed of 46 inches per
second.
2. The Infoprint 4005 Hi-Lite Color post-processor provides a high-speed, high-quality, all-points-addressable (APA)
color printing system to complement the industry-leading quality and reliability the IBM Infoprint 4000 Wide or
Wide Duplex printers (240 dpi models). Visit the IBM Printing Systems Inter page at
http://www.ibm.com/printers for more information about the Infoprint 4005.
3. Maximum printing rate is the maximum number of pages of the indicated size and configuration that can be
printed at the constant speed of paper movement shown for each printer. Rates for pages of different sizes and
configuration can be calculated by dividing the form length into the printer speed. Actual printing rate will be less
if the printer cannot reach this rate due to complexity or density of the data or the ability of the system to deliver
data at this rate.
4. Maximum usage is based on operating 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, at maximum printing rate with normal
maintenance and operations activity. IBM does not recommend reaching this monthly maximum on consistent
basis.
