IBM 6400-020, IBM Line Matrix Printer 2000 LPM

The IBM 6400-020 line matrix Cabinet printer achieves reliable high quality printing while achieving the lowest cost per page output at blistering speeds. Our fully refurbished printers are sold with a warranty and are all qualified for maintenance. Parts & Supplies are also available for this model as well as repair services.

The IBM 6400-020 is a feature-rich impact printer designed to complement the current IBM 6400 line printer offerings.

This model:

Has print speeds up to 2000 lines per minute (lpm)
Support all features currently available on the 6400.
Offers a new internal Ethernet adapter not available on previous IBM 6400 models.
Can be easily managed remotely with the new IBM 6400 Printer Management Utility program.

The 6400-020 is an extremely versatile, cost-effective printer. It offers, as standard, the IBM Proprinter III XL and Epson FX 1050 graphics emulations, as well as the Printronix P-Series, Printronix P-Series XQ Variant, and Printronix Serial Matrix emulations. This model can also be attached via ASCII, coax, twinax, Token Ring, or Ethernet to such diverse hosts as IBM S/390, AS/400, RS/6000, IBM PC and Netfinity servers, IBM-compatible PCs, non-IBM systems supporting the ASCII serial/parallel interface, and LANs.

Customer Setup (CSU)

The 6400-020 is designated a Customer Setup (CSU) machine. The Setup Guide and Configuration Utility diskette contain all of the necessary instructions to enable the customer to set up and configure the printer.

The printer features ordered at the time of your base machine order are factory installed prior to shipment, and are covered in the setup and configuration instructions. Features designated as plant order have a field-install equivalent, which must be installed by a service technician.

Performance

Printer throughput in lines per minute (LPM) is a factor of the selected font.
Printing speed is independent of the number of characters configured in the character set repertoire.
Print lines containing bold/emphasized (shadow) printing or elongated (double high) attributes will print at approximately one-half the rate shown below.
Nominal print speeds for the 6400-020 at 6 lines per inch (LPI) are shown below:
- High Speed - 2000 LPM
- Data Processing - 1500 LPM
- Correspondence - 842 LPM
