TOSHIBA LAUNCHES E-STUDIO 220CP COLOR LASER PRINTER.

Toshiba America Business Solutions Inc. (TABS), Irvine, Calif., has launched the e-STUDIO(tm)220CP color printer, a cost-effective business color printing solution that replaces the previous model, e-STUDIO205CP. The e-STUDIO220CP is a 22 page-per-minute (PPM) full color printer offering standard network printing in a compact size.

"The e-STUDIO220CP allows businesses to introduce color into their printing environment at an affordable cost without sacrificing speed or image quality," said Kay Fernandez, director, Product and Solutions Marketing, TABS. "TABS is committed to providing customers with a total solutions offering strategy, and with the introduction of the e-STUDIO220CP, businesses are able to produce color output quickly and affordably, which results in increased productivity and efficiency."

The first page out time of the e-STUDIO220CP is less than 11 seconds, with quick speeds of 22 PPM in color and 24 PPM in monochrome, an improvement from 13 seconds first page out time and 20 PPM color and monochrome on the e-STUDIO205CP. This full-color Toshiba printer simulates 4,800 dpi color quality and 1,200 by 1,200 dpi resolution with automatic color correction, producing clean, sharp text with solid and bright colors, ideal for professional quality documents such as charts, graphs, sales presentations and marketing collateral.

The e-STUDIO220CP supports Windows Vista(tm), comes standard with 10/100BaseTX Ethernet and USB 2.0 connections, and features standard PostScript(tm) 3 and PCL 6(r) emulations. Supported media types for the e-STUDIO220CP include plain paper, envelopes, transparencies, paper labels and card stock. It can handle up to legal-size paper through a standard 250-sheet drawer or an optional 550-sheet drawer.

Featuring a monthly duty cycle of up to 75,000 pages, the e-STUDIO220CP ships standard with 4,000-page yield black toner and 3,000-page yield color toner starter cartridges. To help lower the cost of operation and maximize toner supplies, the e-STUDIO220CP has a Color Saver feature that reduces the amount of toner required to print graphics and images.

The e-STUDIO220CP is now available through Toshiba's nationwide network of dealers for a suggested list price of $499.
