Phaser 4400 Laser Printer Overview
The Phaser 4400 Laser Printer combines a monochrome print engine with an image processor supporting PostScript 3 and PCL5e/6. The Phaser 4400 is a high performance, 26 ppm desktop laser printer with a resolution up to 1200 x 1200 dpi.

Configurations
The Phaser 4400 is available in four configurations. A replaceable "Configuration Upgrade Chip" holds configuration information that enables or disables built-in features as described here. Phaser 4400B The Phaser 4400B is the base configuration laser printer. The printer comes standard with 32 Mbytes of memory, 600 x 600 dpi resolution, USB and Parallel support, a built in Multi-Purpose Tray, and a 550-sheet universal paper tray. Note: The Phaser 4400B reports 32 Mbytes of memory even though it has a 64-Mbyte DIMM installed. In order to get the full 64 Mbytes of memory to be reported as well as activate other features, users need to upgrade to the N-configuration with a Configuration Upgrade Kit, part number 098S04703.

Phaser 4400N The Phaser 4400N is the networking configuration. This configuration includes all the features of the 4400B, but comes with 64 Mbytes of memory, built-in 10/100 Ethernet networking capabilities, and a resolution up to 1200 x 1200 dpi. Phaser 4400DT The Phaser 4400DT includes all the features of the 4400N but comes standard with built in auto-duplexing, and one added 550-sheet feeder. Phaser 4400DXThe Phaser 4400DX includes all the features of the 4400DT, along with a 20-Gbyte hard drive and a Stacker with offset.

Printer Memory Configuration
The printer features two slots which accept 32-, 64-, and 128-Mbyte SDRAM DIMMs. All combinations except 32 Mbytes alone are allowed to a maximum of 256 Mbytes. The Phaser 4400B reports 32 Mbytes of memory, even though it has a 64-Mbyte DIMM installed. In order to get the full 64 Mbytes of memory to be reported as well as activate other features, users must upgrade to the N-model with a Configuration Upgrade Kit, part number 098S04703. The Startup page and the Configuration pages list the amount of RAM installed in the printer. If the memory does not meet the following specifications, it is ignored by the printer.

Front Panel Configuration
The Front Panel consists of one tricolor LED, a display window and six functional keys. These keys navigate the menu system, perform functions and select modes of operation for the printer. The LED (light emitting diode) above the Graphics Display can be green, yellow or red, and can be off, blinking or steady.

LED indications:
Green -- Ready to Print Flashing Green -- Receiving, Processing Data or Printing Flashing Yellow -- Warning Flashing Red -- Error (blinks in unison with Image Processor Health LED)

See RRP 9.2 Image Processor Board on page 6-88 for information on replacing the Image Processor Board.

Inside the printer on the Image Processor board are four LEDs shown in the figure. DS210 illuminates when the e-net rate is set to 10 Mbits/sec (off indicates 100 Mbits/sec). DS211 illuminates when a link is established. DS380 is the HEALTH LED. The CPU flashes this LED to indicate that it is "alive", or in the case of a failure, the CPU flashes this LED (and the Front Panel LED, also) with a code to help diagnose the problem. DS390 is the CHECK STOP indicator, which illuminates when various fatal errors occur in the CPU.

The Paper Tips Pages shown here list the supported paper and paper sizes, and provide the paper specifications for the printer.
Refer to the following tables to ensure the best print-quality and to avoid paper jams. For best results, use Xerox-branded paper as it is guaranteed to produce excellent results on your Xerox PhaserTM 4400 Laser Printer. Print-quality and paper handling performance may vary depending on vendor and type of paper used. Note: If you change the type of paper or transparencies, you must specify the type on the front panel of the printer. For the Multi-Purpose Tray or envelope feeder only: if you change the size of paper, also specify the size on the front panel.
