plain paper electrophotographic process, that uses a laser diode. Printer
emulations and font software download into the printer via the host printer I/O
interface.

Introduction
Printer Features
The printer prints up to 24 pages per minute on an 8.5 x 11 inch page and
produces a 300 x 300 dots-per-inch (dpi) resolution on a continuous length
printable area. (See
Appendix A
for printer specifications.)
Features of the printer include:
Continuous fanfold paper or forms handling
Supports a wide variety of form lengths
User-replaceable developer kit, toner kit, and organic photoconductor
(OPC) drum kit
Alphanumeric liquid-crystal display that provides operating and error
messages
Serial and parallel interface
Coax or twinax interface (optional)
PrintNetr Ethernett LAN interface (optional)
Emulations
The printer comes with HPr Laserjetr PCL5r and/or the Printronix LinePrinter
Plusr emulation. The LinePrinter Plus emulation includes the following printer
protocols:
Printronix P-Series
Printronix P-Series XQ
Serial Matrix
Proprinterr III XL
Epsonr FX-1050
LinePrinter plus provides portrait and landscape image orientation. The emulation
also offers scalable fonts.
Optional emulations are also available. Refer to the appropriate emulation
manual for specific information on these emulations:

Introduction
Hardware Options
Ask your printer representative about these options which can enhance your
printer’s versatility:
Paper stacker with printer stand
The paper stacker provides for properly stacked paper from the beginning to
completion of the print job. The stacker will hold an entire box of media.
Memory expansion (32 meg and 64 meg)
The L1524 has 32 meg of memory factory installed.
Flash memory which may store configurations in NVRAM, emulations,
fonts and logos.
The L1524 has 8MB of flash memory in its base configuration. 16, 32, or 64MB
modules are also available.
PrintNet Ethernet LAN connection
A hardware option is available for proper connection of the printer to a LAN. This
option is sometimes referred to as the NIC (Network Interface Card).
Coax/Twinax connection
A hardware option is available for proper connection of the printer for
Coax/Twinax operation.
Optional fonts
Optional printer fonts can be purchased and downloaded into the printer using a
diskette.
Fonts and Forms
The printer provides a variety of resident fonts. The available fonts are dependent
the emulation used. For example, the Printronix LinePrinter Plus emulation
provides Letter Gothic, Courier, OCR-A, and OCR-B as standard fonts sets.
Additional fonts can be downloaded from the host computer into printer memory.
Once loaded, these additional fonts are accessed in the same way as the
resident fonts.
Forms may be stored together with fonts. The storage space for forms and fonts
depends on memory availability. Different fonts and forms may be used
depending on the emulation installed.

Introduction
General Laser Printer Technology
The operation of a laser printer is somewhat different than that of an impact
printer. They produce an entire page at once, compared to line printers, which
produce complete character lines.
NOTE: If the software application fails to give a form feed at the end of the
data, and the data does not exceed the selected lines per page
setting, the page will not print. Rather, it will remain in memory.
The laser printer has two basic functional parts: the engine and the controller.
The engine is responsible for the mechanical aspects of producing the page. The
controller controls the printer and is responsible for electronic data manipulations.
NOTE: Laser printers can not print to the physical edge of the paper. If the
document image runs to the edge of the paper, portions of the
image may be lost.
The electrophotographic printing process, shown in Figure 1–2, consists of the
following steps:
1. Charging: The charge corona is a thin wire electrode that extends
across the width of the media. This electrode places a high–voltage
electrostatic charge on the organic photoconductor (OPC) drum.
2. Imaging: Based on data received from the host computer, a bit–mapped
image of the page is generated in random access memory (RAM) on the
controller (not shown).
3. Exposing: The laser scanning unit (LSU) exposes areas of the OPC
which are to be imaged (i.e., black). This forms a latent image of the
bit–mapped data. This image is made up of charged and uncharged
areas.
4. Developing: The latent image areas of the OPC attract toner from the
developer unit to form the developed image on the OPC drum. Since the
charged areas of the drum have the same charge as the toner, they
repel the toner.
5. Transferring: Another thin wire electrode, the transfer corona, puts a
high electrostatic charge on the paper. This charge attracts the toner,
transferring the toner from the OPC drum to the paper.
6. Fusing: Heat and pressure rollers fuse the transferred image to the
paper.

Introduction
7. Cleaning: As the OPC drum continues to turn, erase lamps remove all
residual electrostatic charge from the OPC. The cleaning unit then
removes unused toner from the OPC.
