Lexmark MS312DN monochrome laser printer
The Lexmark MS312DN is a monochrome laser printer built for offices that need fast, automatic duplex output on plain paper. It prints up to 35 ppm at 1200 x 1200 dpi and includes a 2-line APA monochrome LCD display for direct control. Standard memory is 128 MB and connectivity includes Ethernet 10/100/1000BaseTX. The monthly duty cycle reaches 50,000 pages.
Installation and common setup issues
The unit ships with a Return Program toner cartridge rated for up to 1,500 pages and an imaging unit rated for up to 60,000 pages, plus a software CD, setup sheet, power cord and safety documents. Two standard paper trays hold up to 300 sheets combined, and a third optional tray can raise capacity to 850 sheets. Network configuration is handled through the LCD menu or the supplied software; users without a wired Ethernet port will need a separate adapter.
Sustained-load behaviour
With a 6.5-second first-page-out time and a 50,000-page monthly duty cycle, the printer is engineered for continuous daily volumes rather than occasional bursts. The standard output bin holds up to 150 sheets, so long print runs may require periodic unloading. The Return Program supplies are designed to be returned after use, which affects long-term consumable planning for high-volume environments.
