INTRODUCTION
Gestetner, the industry leader in Imaging Communication technology, is proud to introduce the
Gestetner F104 and F104L (also referred to as the Gestetner F104 Series), powerful multifunctional

laser print engine. The result is a robust multifunctional system that offers greater performance
at a competitive price point…a winning package that opens up an enormous new market for
future sales opportunities.

Making the Connection
Beyond the core features outlined above, the Gestetner F104 and the F104L differ in that the
F104 is a mid- to high-volume facsimile system for standalone placements (non-networked
offices). However, the F104 can be upgraded for full connectivity (turning the unit into a F104L)
should your customers’ needs change. The F104L is network-ready out-of-box, providing users
with an impressive array of productivity-enhancing connectivity features…
• Color Scan-to-Email
• Internet Fax (T.37 Store & Forward)
• IP-Fax (T.38 Real-time Faxing)
• LAN Fax (Software Included in F104L)
• Network Color Scanning
• Proof Printing
• Automatic Document Back-up E-mail
Note: See “Network Connectivity” for further information.
The Complete Solution
As “Best in Class,” the Gestetner F104 Series – with intuitive operation, ergonomic design,
easy-to-replace Toner Cartridge and Photoconductor Unit (PCU) – is a price/performance leader
that the competition simply can’t match. So whether your customer needs to…
• Send and receive fax messages over the PSTN/Internet/Intranet
• Scan-to-E-mail in color or black & white
• Send and receive Internet faxes
• Print from a PC or network
• Scan to file
• Automatic Document Back-up Archive
…the Gestetner F104 Series is the tool that can get the job done – faster and easier.
