TITLE 4201 MODEL 1............................................1001
The IBM Proprinter (4201), is a serial dot matrix printer for attachment
to the IBM PC, PCjr, PC XT, Personal Computer AT, PC Portable, 3270-PC
(Release 1.2 and up), 3270-PC/G, 3270 PC/GX, PS/2-family IBM Series/1
System 5170 Model 495, and suitably equipped and programmed non-IBM
personal computers. The IBM Proprinter adds high speed, desktop printing
to the IBM Personal Computer family. Continuous forms paper handling
and manual front sheet feed are integrated into the Proprinter. The
printer is capable of handling downloadable print fonts and offers as
standard a PC compatible parallel interface. An optional asynchronous
serial interface is planned for availability in the fourth quarter of
1985. A 5K Print Buffer option is also planned at that time.

TITLE 4202XL MODEL I .......................................1004
The IBM 4202 Proprinter XL, is a wide carriage serial dot matrix printer
for attachment to IBM Personal Computers. The IBM 4202 adds high speed,
wide carriage, desktop, impact printing to the IBM Personal Computer family.
Manual front sheet feed and continuous form paper handling are integrated
into the IBM 4202 Proprinter XL, which is capable of handling downloadable
print fonts (256 character), and is offered with a standard IBM Personal
Computer compatible parallel interface, an optional asynchronous serial
interface, and an optional 8K print buffer. The IBM 4202 Proprinter XL has
a 13.6 inch print line, and will accept:
1. continuous form up to 15 inches in width;
2. cut sheets up to 16.5 inches in width.
Other features include: A user-friendly operator panel that lets the user
choose many print modes without the need for programming skills; support for
proportional character spacing, software selectable margins and printing of
double height characters; approximately 4 million character ribbon life;
power-assisted paper loading for continuous forms; 4K standard print buffer;
and "quiet" mode, a user-controlled feature that mutes the sound level while
printing at 10 CPI in DP mode. The IBM 4202 Proprinter XL also includes a built
in self-test that demonstrates many of the print modes; this allows the printer
to be demonstrated during self-test without attachment to a PC or display.

TITLE 4207 X24 AND 4208 XL24 ........................1007 1008
The Proprinter X24 - Proprinter XL24 are narrow/wide-carriage high-speed,
24-wire serial dot-matrix impact letter quality printers for attachment
to IBM Personal Computers, certain IBM Display Stations, and compatible
non-IBM PC hosts. The Proprinter X24 - Proprinter XL24 will provide
letter quality printing and high-resolution graphics in addition to all
the print functions of the IBM Proprinter XL.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
o Models 4207 Model 001
4208 Model 001
o Acoustics 60 dBA printing
o Maximum print line width: X24 - 8.0"(205mm)
XL24 - 13.6"(345mm)
Paper Width: X24
Cut forms: 3 inches to 11 inches (76.2mm to 279.4mm)
Continuous forms: 3 inches to 10.0 inches (76.2mm to 254.0mm)
Paper Width: XL24
Cut forms: 3 inches to 16.5 inches (76.2mm to 419.1mm)
Continuous forms: 3 inches to 15.0 inches (76.2mm to 381.0mm)
^^^^^^
Paper Weights:
Single part forms up to 9.5" wide, 12 to 24 pound paper (thickness
of .0023" to .0045"). Over 9.5" wide, 15 to 24 pound paper (thickness
of .0023 to .0045).
Multi Part Forms:
2 part forms should use 10 to 15 pound paper with a medium 8 pound or
less carbon paper. The 10 to 15 pound paper, per single sheet, runs
from .0019" to .0023" thick. A single sheet of 8 pound carbon paper
is .0011" thick.
3 OR MORE -PART FORMS ARE NOT SUPPORTED.
For multiple part forms, any combination can be used as long as the
total forms thickness does not exceed .006". Carbonized paper or
carbonless forms can be used. Individual plies should be from .0019"
to .003" thick. For multiple part forms the total thickness
should not exceed .006". Carbonless forms must be positively retained
(glued) in order to insure satisfactory feeding. Multiple part forms
with metal or tape fasteners along the edges are not supported.
Any paper weights over 24 pounds should be tested for acceptable
operation and legibility. Such tests are the responsibility of the
customer. Card stock is not recommended for this printer.
^^^^^^
Specified Operating Environment
Hardware Requirements: The IBM PC Parallel Printer Cable
is required for the Proprinter X24 - Proprinter XL24 and must be
ordered separately. If serial connection is required, the Asynchronous
serial attach module and the Serial attach cable are required.
Software Requirements: The Proprinter X24 - Proprinter XL24 has
been designed to be compatible with the IBM Proprinter and the IBM
Proprinter XL. In general, software applications which operate with
these previously announced printers, will also operate with the
Proprinter X24 - Proprinter XL24. However, applications may not take
advantage of all the new capabilities such as resident type families,
high-resolution graphics or the sheetfeed. The printer will emulate
the Epson LQ-1000 for high resolution graphics; Most existing software
that supports Epson 24-wire printing will work with the Proprinter X24
- Proprinter XL24.
^^^^^^
Differences from the Proprinter and Proprinter XL include the following:
o The Proprinter X24 - Proprinter XL24 supports a unique download
font data stream with letter quality resolution into a non-volatile
pluggable module. As a consequence, the Proprinter X24 - Proprinter
XL24 data stream for download is different than that of the Proprinter.
o The Proprinter X24 - Proprinter XL24 font and print quality select
command offers additional font selection and print quality modes
above that of the Proprinter XL. The parameter values used in this
command are different between the two printers. See the Proprinter
X24 - Proprinter XL24 Guide to Operations for details.
The above list of differences in not exhaustive. Again, reference should
be made to the Compatibility Guide for detail regarding support of specific
software packages.
^^^^^^
Each of the following application programs was tested on one or more
members of the IBM PC family running under IBM DOS. Statements relating
to IBM software compatibility were provided by the various software
publishers. The applications operate with the Proprinter X24 - Proprinter
XL24 in a manner similar to that of the IBM Proprinter (4201) and
Proprinter XL (4202) for functions commonly supported by all three
printers. The programs are supported by the publisher and are available
as distributed by the supplier. The applicable terms and conditions of
sale and use are included in the program package of the program publisher.
All tests were conducted using the current versions of the software
packages listed below unless otherwise stated.
FOR SPECIFIC INFORMATION REGARDING SOFTWARE COMPATIBILITY REFER TO THE
CURRENT PRINTER SOFTWARE COMPATIBILITY GUIDE (FORM NO. G360-2652).

INTERFACE INFORMATION
The Proprinter X24E uses the RS-232/RS-422 Serial Interface announced
for serial attachment. PC Serial attachment allows the printer to
be attached to a PC at distances greater than the 6 ft Parallel
Interface. It also provides attachment to some non-IBM systems.

when the distance between the processor and the printer exceeds the
limit of RS-232 capability. The RS-422 interface also provides for
higher speed of data transmission rate of 38.4 baud rate.
