back to top of page Fast print speed Up to eight pages per minute printing (with Intel 80960JF RISC-based formatter) High print quality + True 600 x 600 dots per inch (dpi) text and graphics + Resolution Enhancement technology (Ret) adjusts the size and the placement of each dot on the page in order to produce smooth angles, curves, and edges. It also includes 45 scalable TrueType fonts and one bitmapped Line Printer Font. PostScript language and fonts The HP LaserJet 6MP series printer also includes the Adobe PostScript Level 2 printer language with 35 built-in PostScript language fonts. Automatic language switching When optional printer languages (such as PostScript) are installed, the printer automatically determines and switches to the appropriate language for the print job. Enhanced memory and memory expansion The HP LaserJet 6P, 6Pse, and 6Pxi series printers come with 2 MB of memory and can be expanded to 50 MB with the three available memory (SIMM) slots. Most documents can be printed using the standard amount of printer memory with the aid of Memory Enhancement technology (Met). Met automatically compresses data, virtually doubling the printer's memory and allowing more complex printing with available memory. The HP LaserJet 6MP series printer comes with 3 MB of memory and can be expanded to 35 MB with the two available memory (SIMM) slots. The third memory slot is used for the PostScript language SIMM The PostScript SIMM includes Adobe Memory Booster Technology (Adobe MBT), which allows more complex printing at 600 dpi with available memory. Energy savings + The printer automatically conserves electricity by substantially reducing power consumption when it is not printing.
