Quick Start while Saving Energy
Panasonic has a smart solution for fast warm up time while
consuming less energy. Our Induction Heating (IH) technologies along
with a redesigned, low thermal capacity heater belt, has eliminated
the need for pre-heating. By maximizing the efficiency of the heating
process, these Energy Star
®
printers are fast, efficient and
economical.
Thanks to Panasonic’s IH Technology, the DP-CL22 / CL18 warms up
faster and prints from sleep mode utilizing only 8W (DP-CL18) or
15W (DP-CL22) of power. These technological breakthroughs
contribute to producing quick color documents, helps to conserve
the environment and reduces energy costs.
High speed One-Pass Printing
The WORKiO DP-CL22 / CL18 utilizes innovative one-pass
technology. Incorporating four in-line 1200 dpi laser diodes and
imaging drums, the Panasonic color laser printer is able to
produce vibrant, full color documents at speeds comparable to
monochrome printing. A cost-effective, state of the art printing
process that saves time and money.
Enhanced Color Quality
Thanks to its high-resolution 1200 x 1200 dpi printing, color reproduction is especially
vivid. In addition, because the printer engine and controller are optimized for the color
setting best suited for photographs, the DP-CL22 / CL18 delivers impressive results
when used for photo printing.
Pages per Sheet
Up to 16 pages can be printed
next to each other on a single
sheet. This feature is convenient
for printing test sheets and
conserving paper.
Fit to Output Paper Size
Scales the source document to fit the specified paper. This
feature is convenient for printing Ledger or A3 source
documents on to Letter or A4 paper, for example.
Booklet
This easy-to-use feature
automatically converts full-
page documents into half
size booklets without the
need for expensive finishing
options or hard to use
specialty software. Just print
and fold in half for
professional style booklets.
Zoom
You can reduce or enlarge (25 –
400%) documents by specifying the
desired magnification. You can also
specify where scaled documents are
positioned on the page.
Photo Mode
The new Photo mode improves the
glossy finish on the surface and
enhances contrast to provide
beautifully smooth reproductions of
color photo images. Now you can
add real flair to your business
documents with gorgeous color
photos.
Poster
Enlarges a single-page source
document for printing on a
specified number of sheets. You
can use this feature to print large
posters – just assemble the
printed sheets.
High yield, easy-to-replace
consumables
Our high-yield toner cartridges can be
easily replaced from the top of the printer.
Improvements to the toner particle and the
toner supply system, as well as greater
internal system efficiency helps to ensure
a longer service life for the toner cartridge
and other consumables.
Print Count Manager
Print Count Manager enables an
administrator to determine which group of
users has permission to print in color and
black & white, black & white only or no
printing rights at all. You can also set limits
on the number of pages allowed to be
printed per user or group.
Embedded Web Server
This enables you to review the printer’s
status and set its configuration using a
standard web browser.
Parallel Print: Supports fast, high-volume
printing by enabling you to print to
multiple devices simultaneously
Delivery Print: You can
choose which printer or
printers you want to deliver
the PDF file to.
†1 Requires optional Hard Disk Drive — sold
separately.
†2 Requires optional Upgrade Kit (for PostScript
®
3™).
Automatic Duplex for
Efficient Double-Sided Printing
These printers are designed to accommodate an automatic
duplex unit, enabling effortless double-sided printing. Cost
effective and speedy, double-sided prints are output at an
incredible rate of up to 21 ppm* in both Color and Black &
White.
With Panasonic’s advanced technology, the printer’s speed
remains the same even when printing two-sided documents.
Save time... Save paper… Save money!
* Actual automatic duplex print speed; DP-CL22: up to 20.9 ppm; DP-CL18:
up to 16.9 ppm with automatic duplex unit (option)
Fast Warmup
USB 2.0 and Parallel Port
The DP-CL22 / CL18 is also equipped with a
full-speed USB 2.0 and IEEE1284 bi-
directional parallel interface so it can be
used as a stand-alone unit. You can also
simultaneously connect to all 3 ports.
Convenient Operation Indicator
Convenient operation indicators located on the edge of the
front panel make it easy to check the current operation mode
even when you’re away from the printer.
Enhanced Network Connectivity
IPv6-ready Ethernet port
Thanks to Panasonic’s intelligent design, you can use the
DP-CL22 / CL18 in an IPv4 environment, an IPv6 environment,
or even an environment where both protocols co-exist.
* The provided printer utilities which utilize IP protocol, such as the Device
Monitor, are not compatible with IPv6.
Convenient Printing Capability
High-Capacity Paper
Supply
The DP-CL22 / CL18 comes standard with
a 530-sheet paper cassette and a 100-
sheet multi-purpose tray. Two optional
Paper Feeders can be added to provide a
maximum paper capacity of 1,690 sheets.
Advanced HDD Security
Functions
†1
Hard Disk Data Erasing
Used with the printer’s optional internal
Hard Disk Drive (KX-CLHD2), the HDD
Utility allows you to remotely manage
“Check then Print”, “Memory Print” and
“Confidential Print” files. For added
security, this function can be set to
automatically render image data
unreadable by overwriting it with zeros
and random data. You can also use it to
protect confidential company information
by completely erasing all of the hard disk
data when the machine is retired.
Direct Print with Quick
PDF Print
†2
You can also print directly from a PC with
a simple “drag & drop” of the PDF file you
want, without using the printer driver.
Printing is quicker and easier than ever.
Quick PDF Print (Direct
Printing System
†2
)
The Direct Printing System is a utility that
lets you send PDF files directly to the
printer, bypassing the printer driver.
Delivery Print and Parallel Print methods
are also available.
Advanced Management
Functions
Web Administrative Tool
When two or more printers (of any type) are
connected to the network, this tool allows
network administrators to check each
printer’s settings and obtain real-time
status information such as paper
conditions, remaining toner and much more
without ever having to leave their desks.

Most conventional color laser printing devices indirectly heat the fuser roller
using a halogen lamp that requires high energy consumption and long warm
up time. To reduce warm up time for quick printing on demand, the fuser
roller has to be pre-heated. Energy consumption efficiency or office
productivity, which should come first?
