Specification precautions

*1 The print speed may drop depending on the settings for the paper size, paper type, number of pages printed, and fixing mode setting.
*2 If the printer is used continuously for an extended period of time, the internal temperature of the printer may increase, activating a safety mechanism and pausing printing temporarily.
*3 May vary depending on the usage conditions, such as the installation environment.
*4 Approximately 317 seconds when the printer is turned on after a toner cartridge is replaced.
*5 Approximately 20 seconds when a cover is opened or closed during sleep mode. ("Out-of-register colors" correction and calibration cannot be performed at this time.)
*6 May vary depending on the output environment.
*7Average yield of the toner cartridges (The above average yields are on the basis of "ISO/IEC 19798" when printing A4 size paper with the default print density setting ("ISO/IEC 19798" is the global standard related to the "Method for the determination of toner cartridge yield for color printers and multi-function devices that contain printer components" issued by ISO (International Organization for Standardization).))
*8 Weight of Canon Cartridge 716 (Black, Yellow, Magenta, and Cyan)

Software Specifications

LBP5050 LBP5050n
Printing software Canon Advanced Printing Technology (CAPT) software
Printable area Data can be printed with a margin of 5.0 mm
(10 mm for envelopes)*1
Network board Supported protocol - TCP/IP
TCP/IP - Frame type: Ethernet II

Specification precautions

*1 When printing data in the entire printable area of an envelope, you may not be able to obtain the optimum print quality.
It is recommended that you arrange the data so that it is printed smaller than the printable area.
*2 This printer supports Raw only. It does not support LPR.
