About Your Printer

The Accel-a-Writer 8300’s high-end features allow you to produce
near typeset quality work, suitable for camera-ready production. The
standard, smooth 600 x 600 dpi resolution can be upgraded to 1200 x
1200 dpi.

Your printer features true Adobe PostScript 3, not an emulation.
Features such as the Smooth Shading operator, expanded font sets
for leading operating systems and applications, international font
support, and Advanced Page Processing provide fast, high quality
imaging on your XANTÉ printer.

XANTÉ’s patent pending Accurate Calibration Technology (X•ACT)
and optional Negative Enhanced Imaging Technology (NEIT) provide
greater control over printer output than previously available from a laser
printer. X•ACT allows you to calibrate the printer’s line lengths. NEIT
is the first technology to address the problems typically associated
producing negative images on a laser printer.
