The e-STUDIO3511/4511 is the culmination of the following leading
technologies that only Toshiba offers:
New e-Bridge Controller
For the e-STUDIO3511/4511, Toshiba has developed ”e-Bridge“,
designed to control multiple functions efficiently. Predecessor
models required an optional printer board, network interface
card or Document Controller to upgrade it to a network printer or
printer/scanner. This means that copying, printing, and scanning
were processed separately with the CPU mounted on each of the
options. On the other hand, for the e-
STUDIO3511/4511, these
multiple functions are all integrated on a single board called
”e-Bridge Controller“ providing a more efficient platform utilizing
a single CPU. This centralizes all kinds of jobs that the
e-
STUDIO3511/4511 performs, including copy jobs, print jobs, scan
jobs and network communications.
Mounted on the e-Bridge Controller are the following:
•Toshiba-manufactured 64-bit RISC CPU, used to implement
the concurrent processing of copying, printing, scanning
and network communicating
• High-speed memory (PC133 SDRAM), arranged as image
memory and system memory, to achieve high-speed
concurrent processing
• UltraDMA, used by the controller chip to increase efficiency in
data transfer
•Toshiba-manufactured RIP accelerator RACe chip, used to
enhance performance of RIP, such as compression,
decompression, and rotation
End User Benefits
• The e-Bridge controller greatly improves efficiency of
concurrent multiple tasks by centralizing functions using a
single CPU.
