DEC-LCP01ColorPrinter

The Digital LCP01 Color Printer is presented as an advanced, intelligent inkjet printing system designed to produce high-quality, presentation-ready color prints that often surpass the clarity and sharpness of on-screen graphics.

A key feature is its onboard graphics processor, which offloads data formatting from the host system, allowing the CPU to perform other tasks while multiple users share the printer. It offers a resolution of 154 dots per inch (dpi) with a palette of 216 color choices, producing prints, including detailed pie charts and bar graphs, in approximately two minutes per copy.

The LCP01 supports printing on both paper and transparencies, features multiple built-in fonts, and allows scaling of graphics. It boasts broad compatibility with Digital's VAX, PDP-11, and Professional 350 computers, as well as various Digital software (like DECslide, DECgraph, DATATRIEVE, VTX) and third-party graphics protocols (REGIS, GIDIS, NAPLPS, Color Sixel). Designed for office environments, it operates quietly, includes self-test diagnostics, and features easy-to-replace ink cartridges with low-ink alerts. The document positions the LCP01 as a cost-effective, flexible, and robust solution for enhancing business communications through superior color hardcopy.
