I got an old IBM laser printer this weekend from a friend of mine. It's
the IBM 4019. It's not a Lexmark one, but one of the old workhorse "leave it
running 24/7 and it'll outlive all of us" IBM printers. Weighs a ton.
Does anyone have a spare manual for it that I can get? Thanks!

It just occurred to me that this might be the IBM 300 page per minute
printer. (yes 300 pages per minute!) Is this thing red in color? Does it
take tractor fed 12" wide paper? The last one I used was about 12' long,
the processor took up about half of that and the paper handler another
2/5ths and then there was the "print engine" which consisted of a tractor
feed using "air" tractors (these were streams of air that blew through the
tractor holes and pulled the paper) a rotating drum, toner and an
ultraviolet fuser unit. One hell of a printer. IBM made them for people
like VISA who wanted to print 8.5 million statements in less than a week.

No, the 4019 is a fairly bland laser printer. The same exact machine
was also shipped with the Lexmark label.

Mine has been running for about eight years and 13000 copies with the
original cartridge.
I have the manuals but not extras.
What did you need to know?
