1. Introduction
1.1. General Description
The print system SOLID F40 works on an electrophotographical base
employing an LED array as exposure unit. The maximum resolution of
600 dots per inch is corresponding to about 24 pixels per mm.
The print speed is up to 40 A4 pages (landscape) per minute.
Exclusively continuous media with sprocket holes can be used for the
tractor guiding. The maximum material width is 16 inches, the
printable width is 14.6 inches. A stacker is included in the standard
device.
The non-contact Xenon flash fusing system in combination with the
straight paper flow enables you to use the most different paper types
and label materials with a weight from 60 to 204 g/m². Even
demanding media like plastic, PVC etc. can be used.
Consequently there is a multitude of scopes for this print system. It is
suitable for high-speed printing with excellent print quality using
different types of materials.
The high functionality of the MICROPLEX controller specially qualifies
the SOLID F40 also for form printing.
The printer is capable of using most of the page description
languages used in the industrial field and also the business standards
known in connection with laser printers can be used.
The capabilities featured include the MICROPLEX page description
language IDOL. Using this language, complex tasks such as the
creation of forms can be carried out by simple software commands
(see separate IDOL manual).
Data can be sent from almost any software platform, because printer
drivers are already available for this.

The MICROPLEX printer controller has its integrated website, this allows
a printer configuration via Ethernet. See Networking Features of
MICROPLEX Printers for more information.
Consequently there is a multitude of scopes for this print system. It is
suitable for high-speed printing with excellent print quality using different
types of materials.
Printing Basics
The MICROPLEX printer controller enables the connection of this print
system to EDP systems whereby several interfaces, emulations and fonts
are available.
The digital information (e.g. a text file) is transferred from the computer
into the printer memory. The printer’s electronic component (the
controller) combined with the page description language, defines the
letters, numbers, graphics, etc. into bit patterns and posts them into the
controller’s frame store.
In this way, a “pattern“ of the future print page (generated by dots) is
created.
The electronically controlled LED (Light Emitting Diode Array) plots the
dot pattern in rows onto the light-sensitive surface of a rotating pre-
charged drum. Toner is caused to adhere to the electrostatic latent
image formed on the drum surface. This image consisting of toner
particles is electrically transferred onto the paper, that is guided past the
drum.
When transported further, the toner particles, which are affected by the
Xenon flash fusing, are combined resistantly with the paper. The drum is
discharged and cleaned.

[ Menu Level 1 ]
The following conventions should help you to find information
and to understand instructions more easily:
This symbol refers to a possible source of danger. Disregarding
the information identified by this symbol could result in injuries,
a reduction of printer functionality, or damage to the printer or
other objects.
This symbol indicates important hints and suggestions on using
the printer. Disregarding the hints might cause problems with
the printer or within the environments.
This symbol shows a control panel key. Such symbols will be
used in this manual whenever keys have to be pressed in order
to activate certain functions.
Link to another chapter or a different document. By clicking the
blue colored text you'll enter the concerning chapter or
document.
This symbol represents messages shown in the display (panel).
This symbol is used to show a shining LED (light emitting diode).
The SOLID F40 printer panel is provided with several LEDs.
The real shape of the LEDs differs from the shape of this symbol
(compare figure in section 4.3).
This symbol will be used in this manual to show a non-shining
LED.
