Overview
The HP LaserJet 5Si, and 5Si MX series printers are high-volume, 600 dots per inch (dpi), and 24 ppm machines designed to handle the printing needs of large networks and departments. Each features advanced paper handling capacity: up to 1,100 sheets standard input and up to 3,100 sheets with optional accessories. An optional Multi-Bin Mailbox increases output capacity from the standard 600 sheets to 2,600 sheets. Each printer handles a variety of media sizes including Letter, Legal, A4, Executive, JIS B4, JIS B5, 11 x 17, A3 and multiple envelope sizes. The HP LaserJet 5Si series printer comes with 45 fonts, 35 Intellifont and 10 TrueType™. The HP LaserJet 5Si MX series printer comes with 80 fonts (35 Adobe Type 1, 35 Intellifont, and 10 TrueType).The HP LaserJet 5Si MX series printer features additional memory and genuine Adobe PostScript Level 2 language as well as an HP Jetdirect print server card for Ethernet (10Base2 and 10Base-T) and LocalTalk (DIN-8) interfaces. All interfaces on both printers are bidirectional and simultaneously active, switching automatically to the port that is receiving data.Enhanced HP Jetadmin printer management software is standard with both printers. HP Jetadmin provides remote printer control and status features for all HP Jetdirect and Novell NetWare file server connected printers (including installation, configuration, and diagnostics). The printer provides industry standard MIB compliance for compatibility within network environments. The new HP Jetadmin features provide print job tracking and monitoring with real-time status updates, alerts, and job cancels.
