In addition to the three base models, IBM offers Printer Solution Offerings (PSO) that contain all the features for certain customer applications and may be ordered as a bundled set at a lower cost than if ordered separately. The PSO is IBM's most price-competitive offering for popular customer applications. One PSO must be ordered with a RP1 or DP1 model at initial order.

Base Models

The Infoprint 2000 production publishing system is a high quality high speed cut sheet printing system. All models of the Infoprint 2000 with the network printer capability can be front-ended by Infoprint Manager or can be integrated into an existing Infoprint Manager (Version 3.1 at the appropriate service level) environment.

Model RP1 -- High speed multifunctional digital duplicator with upgradable features to include network connectivity and is aimed at the corporate reprographics centers, in-plant print shops and the print for pay market.

Model NP1 -- High speed PostScript, PCL, and PDF printer with upgradable features to include production copying capabilities and is aimed at the large office workgroup, and data center environments where PostScript and PCL are the predominant data streams (that is, ERP installations like PeopleSoft and SAP as well as non-IBM data center environments).

Model DP1 -- High speed cut sheet production publisher aimed at the data center environment where Xerox native data stream (LCDS/Metacode) is the predominant production datastream.

The RP1 base model comes standard with the following:

Printer Solution Offerings (PSO)

In addition to the three base models, there are PSOs available for some models. A PSO includes several features bundled together for a specific application. The PSO is IBM's most price-competitive offering for a specific application.

Model RP1 has two PSOs associated with it. One of these PSOs (but not both) must be ordered with the initial order.

• Standalone Duplicator Solution (feature #4210).
• Network Publisher Solution (feature #4220).

The Standalone Digital Duplicator Solution is intended for reprographics centers and print shop applications. This feature includes all microcode needed for the Standalone Digital Duplicator application.

The Network Publisher Solution is intended for corporate reprographics centers where an attachment to the corporate network is required. This feature includes all microcode for duplicator printer functions, and also includes the LAN connect capability.

Model NP1 is itself a complete solution and therefore doesn't have any PSOs associated with it.

Model DP1 has one PSO associated with it. This PSO must be ordered with the initial order.

• Xerox Datastream Solution (feature #4230).

The Xerox Datastream Solution is intended for corporate data center applications. This feature includes an SCS, 512 MB memory, network connectivity, channel connectivity hardware, Xerox Native Datastream (LCDS/Metacode) enablement and all microcode needed for a network printer and data center application.

Features

Below is a list of optional features for the Infoprint 2000:

• Additional paper supply module with 4,000 sheet paper capacity
• High capacity stacker with 3,000 sheet capacity
• Signature booklet maker that saddle folds and saddle stitches
• Network connectivity to a 10/100BaseT Ethernet LAN
