Features and Functionality

Size is something that stands out when one first sees the Epson CX11NF. This printer measures 18.1" wide x 18.4" deep x 33.5" high and weighs just over 100 lbs. Needless to say this printer will require two people to get installed.

Crisp monochrome text and images can be produced at a rate of 25 pages per minute. The monochrome copy speeds are the same. Color printing and copying can be achieved at a rate of 5 pages per minute. The Epson CX11NF has a maximum output resolution of 600 x 600 dpi.

The AcuLaser CX11NF comes with built in faxing and scanning functionality. The fax capability is Super G3 and this model has a fax memory capable of storing up to 320 pages. The built in 48 bit color scanner can be used with the packaged software bundle to create an office wide OCR tool.

The CX11NF uses a multipass engine to print using each of the four cartridges. (Cyan) S050189, (Magenta) 050188, (Yellow) 050187, and (Black) 050190 toner cartridges are required for proper use of this device. Epson CX11NF toner cartridges are rated at 4k pages. Owners of this model printer have the option of using either Epson Compatible Toner or Epson OEM toner.

The CX11NF supports both MAC and Windows operating systems. The Epson CX11NF comes with a 50 page automatic document feeder (ADF) and a 180 page paper tray. The 50 page ADF supports both letter and legal sized documents. The paper capacity can be expanded to 680 pages by adding the optional tray.

This printer model comes standard with 128mb of memory and is expandable to 576mb. External memory cards such as SD are not supported with this printer. This isn't really a negative as most laser printers don't make good photo printers and the Epson CX11NF is no different.
