
Print speeds do not include the time needed for the PC to process
the image.

Process time is dependent on the size of the file, the CPU,
amount of RAM and the amount of available resources at the time
of the print.

Print speed indicates an approximate batch print speed and is
measured from the time a card feeds into the Printer to the time it
ejects from the Printer. (Note: The single card print speeds will
be slower than the batch print speeds listed above since batch
print speed is enhanced by the Printer's multi-tasking capabilities
when printing multiple cards in succession.)
