Versatile, easy-to-use laser printer was designed to meet the needs of SMEs and small workgroups in large enterprises
Lexmark International today announced the local release of a powerful new office printer designed for general-purpose printing in small workgroups. The Lexmark T430 is ideal for SMEs and small workgroups in large enterprises requiring business-class paper handling and versatility.
The Lexmark T430 offers best price/performance, highest rated print speed and fastest time to first page. The combination of superior performance, affordable acquisition price and low cost of ownership makes the Lexmark T430 a productive and efficient tool in the office.
"Lexmark is extremely proud to offer a workgroup printer with the affordability and flexibility of the T430. The T430 offers performance, versatility and ease of use that make it an essential part of any small workgroup environment," says Hans Horn, Managing Director, Lexmark International, South Africa.
Powerful
Complex print jobs are no problem for the Lexmark T430 due to its print speed of up to 30ppm (A4) and 366MHz processor. The Lexmark T430 offers new instant-on fusing technology and prints the critical first page in a class-leading eight seconds.
To further enhance user productivity while reducing network traffic, the Lexmark T430 features direct PDF printing which allows the customer to quickly and easily send PDF documents directly to the printer without accessing the printer driver.
Versatile
The small footprint and low profile of the Lexmark T430 make it a great fit for small workspaces, while being durable enough to handle a monthly print volume of up to a maximum of 65 000 pages. The optional 250-sheet and 500-sheet stackable drawers add paper capacity for customer convenience and the automatic duplexing on select models further reduces cost by saving paper. The high-yield, 12 000 page cartridge reduces user intervention, driving higher productivity.
Easy to use and secure printing
The backlit operator panel on the Lexmark T430 allows users and network administrators to easily select printer settings and receive printer status information. The Lexmark T430 also offers secure printing capabilities with the optional PrintCryption card, which provides corporate environments with a new level of remote print security, allowing confidential information to be securely transmitted over a TCP/IP network.
Today also sees the release of Lexmark`s new 802.11g Wireless Print Adapter, which is five times faster than the previous generation of technology and enables true mobile printing by allowing users to place a printer exactly where it is needed.
"The new 802.11g Wireless Print Adapter is a testament to our innovation and a result of our exclusive focus on printing solutions. Combined with the Lexmark T430, our ability to deliver fast and secure wireless printing is further proof of the superiority of Lexmark`s technology," adds Horn.
