LaserWriter IIg Product Description
 
As of this writing, the Apple LaserWriter IIg printer is the most powerful
and most capable LaserWriter every built by Apple.  The LaserWriter IIg is an
expandable network printer that makes use of PhotoGrade technology.  The unit
can print images with more than 65 levels of gray and is capable of smoothing
jagged edges by using its FinePrint technology.
 
LocalTalk capabilities allow for plug-and-play simplicity when connected to
an AppleTalk network.  The LaserWriter IIg has built-in Ethernet features for
easy connection to high-speed EtherTalk networks.  The unit can be connected
simultaneously to Ethernet, LocalTalk, and other serial interfaces.  The
LaserWriter IIg can be connected to multiple types of computers or networks.
 
Incorporation of a high-speed controller and Adobe¹s PostScript Level 2
software results in document printing at a speed of up to twice the speed of
the LaserWriter IINTX.  The newest generation of PostScript improves printing
speed and adds new capabilities over previous models, and is fully compatible
with existing applications and drivers.  The IIg is also compatible with the
Hewlett Packard LaserJet IIP (PCL 4+) emulation software.
 
This product includes:  Apple LaserWriter IIg printer; toner cartridge;
letter cassette; installation and font disks; power cord; Owner¹s Guide, The
Basic Elements of Design guide; and a limited warranty statement.
