Inexpensive to purchase, inexpensive to operate: the SOLID F40 is the most economical printer product in its class. As a continuous laser printer for medium printing volumes, it covers a very broad spectrum of deployment areas.
The powerful MPC Controller guarantees connection versatility, easy system integration, and high printing performance.
Flash fusing via Xenon flash lamps also enables thermally sensitive materials such as plastic or PVC to be used. And fusing is also trouble-free even on thick materials.
High performance and low printing costs. The introduction of the SOLID F40 Microplex expands the portfolio of continuous laser printers. The SOLID F40 is suitable as a replacement for printer models with reduced print speed.
Its price, as well as the low price per copy, make the Solid F40 the most economical printer in its category and with the best price-performance ratio in the market.
Its cold fusion technology through xenon-Flash lamps allows printing in heat-sensitive documents such as envelopes, labels, plastics, PVC, documents with different thicknesses or with glues or other chemical components, and even cardboards up to 204 g / m² in thickness without any problem.
A synchronized paper stacker and cutter come standard with the printer, which makes the Solid F40 a high-performance printing solution by separating and stacking unattended print batches.
The solid F40 is compatible with the vast majority of emulations or printer languages, the solid F40 is a perfect substitute for Discontinued Printronix L5XXX printers such as L5020, L5031, L5535, etc. as well as the Printronix L7032 model.

Gaining speed and quality without changing the application
The Microplex continuous forms laser printer, for example, the SOLID F40, can also print complex, variable data that contains many barcodes.
Maintaining the maximum speed at 2,000lpm contrary to most line matrix printers, where the printing speed is reduced to achieve a slightly better print quality.
Therefore the SOLID F40 reduces the printing time significantly and keeps the high quality at 600 dpi.
Solid F40- Fully formed continuous character printer
Impact Line Printers are often rated with their high-speed draft mode.
The “1500 LPM” Printronix or IBM line printer is actually 1125 LPM in DP data processing mode. It falls down to 600 LPM in Near Letter Quality if printing ALL CAPITAL LETTERS.
It is even slower at 459 LPM if printing ‘Mixed Cases’ with Capital and lower case characters. The Microplex F40 is four times that speed and with wonderful 600 DPI clarity. Customers hanging on to the old IBM 6262 can now upgrade.
The Microplex SOLID F40 has performed very well as an IBM 6262 replacement, giving that ‘fully formed character’ quality but now for them at 600 dpi.
Solid Price – F40 Pricing
With a price list of under $25,000, the Microplex F40 is a great entry point to flash fusing printing.
It can handle continuous labels, tags and forms, media such as PE and PVC. It performs address printing and Cheshire Labels with USPS IMb with an affordable laser.
The low price of the Solid- F40 gives the customer a lot of site flexibility. The F40 is a great backup machine for a higher-speed Microplex like the F90 or F140.
Current users appreciate that the Microplex Controller is the same across the product line. Some customers like to buy two of the same unit and split or alternate the workload. With the Microplex F40, the initial investment is much lower.
