Printers expected to be a hit
According to Vidal, the CL500 and CL510 series is expected to be a hit with small- to
mid-sized businesses. Vidal said that in addition to reliability, cost, speed, size and price-
performance, the printers meet a variety of needs.
For example, while the CL500 is a PCL-based machine, the CL510 also includes
Genuine Adobe PostScript3 , with automatic emulation sensing and switching, for those who
require it for their environment. The CL510 also includes more RAM [128MB].
The CL500D has the same features as the CL500 plus 128 MB and auto duplex, while the
CL510D has the same features as the CL510 plus auto duplex.
Industry analyst says market for color printers is expanding
Frasco, who is IDC’s director of worldwide print technologies and output, offers this
perspective on the CL500 and CL510 printers: “Traditional barriers to purchasing color printers,
including cost of hardware and cost to print color and black and white pages, are being overcome
by products such as Panasonic’s CL500 and CL510.
“In addition to being the most compact color page printers currently on the market, the
CL500 and CL510 offer a range of capabilities,” Frasco adds. “This makes them particularly
attractive in today’s color printer market.”
Printers handle range of projects, paper sizes and weights
The CL500 and CL510 produce crisp output for presentations, requests for proposal,
personalized direct mail, training materials and product guides. Both models handle a wide
range of paper sizes and weights: letter to legal, envelopes, card stock, labels, transparencies and
coated stock. A multipurpose tray and universal smart cassette combine for a standard paper
capacity of 630 sheets; optional paper feeders increase capacity to 1,690 sheets.
