Apple Color LaserWriter 12/660 PS

The Apple Color LaserWriter 12/660 PS
is a high-performance, multiplatform
Adobe PostScript color laser printer
that provides outstanding results for
both color and gray-scale printing. It’s
ideal for anyone who requires conven-
ient, superior-quality color printing
capabilities.

Today, everyone—from senior

executives to sales professionals to
schoolteachers—is looking to improve
the impact of printed documents by
incorporating color. Color charts can
highlight financial data, color logos
can make product presentations more
appealing, color graphics can grab—
and hold—student interest, and on
and on. Unfortunately, until now,
high-quality color printing involved
expensive specialized equipment that
put it out of reach for most of those
who could benefit from it.

The Color LaserWriter 12/660 PS

provides a breakthrough in color
printing performance. With its 600-
dot-per-inch resolution, it provides
the outstanding print quality you
need—fast. Its performance contrib-
utes to your efficiency; for example,
the Color LaserWriter 12/660 PS can
be used to print multiple color copies

(up to 180 per hour), making it perfect
for producing handouts. And to help
you get started using this printer
quickly and efficiently, your purchase
includes not only everything needed
to start printing impressive color docu-
ments right away, but also installation
and setup*.

That convenience remains true

over time, too, because the Color
LaserWriter 12/660 PS requires only
seven printer supplies and features an
easy-access front-loading design. It also
comes with valuable tips and tech-
niques to help you get the best perfor-
mance and image quality possible
when working with many of the most
popular graphics and page-layout
applications. Add to that this printer’s
easy and flexible networking capability,
which lets you share its cost across an
entire workgroup (including systems
running Windows 95), and color
printing has never been so simple.

So if you want convenient color

printing—without a compromise in
quality—the Apple Color LaserWriter
12/660 PS is the printer for you.
