idea behind the incredibly affordable Phaser 740L color-capable laser printer. This one-of-a-
kind, fully featured network laser printer was developed especially for today’s forward-
thinking workgroups. Start off with high-performance black-and-white printing, then step
up to color any time by simply adding the Color Kit.

white images come alive on plain paper.
Add to all of this network-ready printing:
The Phaser 740L printer ships standard
with a 10BaseT Ethernet interface. Just
plug it in and you’ll be printing in no time.
