6 Sales/Marketing: sales projections, presentations, and quarterly reports. FAQs 1. How can the 52-ppm Di520 be "faster" than printer/copiers rated at higher speeds? Productivity with digital printer/copiers is even more pronounced with some digital printer/copiers such as the Di520 as compared to similar speed analog copiers. This is due to the processing power available to maximize performance of a document. Subsequently, a "slower" digital printer/copier (rated engine speed) can often times be far more productive overall than "faster" analog copiers. It is important to look at the total effort in creating a finished document from creation to measure the overall performance of a printing/copying system. For the Di520, this includes the ability to directly print a job from a PC and create finished documents including hole punching, stapling and folding if desired. 2. What is the difference between "Proof Set" and "Sample Set?" Some manufacturers of digital printer/copiers offer "Sample Set" versus "Proof Set" as options for the end-user to select when copying. Either way, the end-user scans in all of the originals, makes their copying function selections and prints out one copy to see how copies look. This is where the similarities end. With Sample Set, the decision is to "go" or "no go." This means if the output is not what was desired (e.g. they forgot to select threehole punch), they have to "dump" the entire job and rescan the originals starting from scratch. With Proof Set, the decision is to "go" or "edit." This means if the output is not what was desired (again - they forgot to select three-hole punch), all they have to do is edit the copying directly on the copier control panel and re-output the job from the copier's memory. The Di520 can be equipped with an optional Hard Disk Drive Kits both have job "Proofing" capability, not just sample set. 3. What is the maximum paper capacity of the Di520 system? Minolta offers two different optional Large Capacity Cassettes (LCCs) for the Di520. The Letter (portrait) sized paper LCC has a capacity of 3,400 sheets. The Landscape LCC has a capacity of 3,000 Letter-R or Legal sheets of paper. Combined with the standard paper capacity of 3,850 sheets, the maximum paper capacity of a Di520 could be 7,250 or 6,850 depending on which LCC was chosen. Minolta Page 6 of 7 Di520, 10/04/00

7 4. Can the optional C-304L handle both Letter-R and Legal paper without any technical adjustments? Yes, the C-304L can accept either Letter-R or Legal paper without any adjustments to it at all. 5. When would a customer want the RAM upgrade versus the HDD on the Di520? Upgrading RAM and adding the HDD to the Di520 are mutually exclusive options. The 16 MB RAM upgrade extends the base page memory from 200 pages to 400 total pages (@ 6% coverage). The 1GB HDD creates a total of 500 pages of memory in lieu of the RAM memory - they are not additive (i.e. one can not get 700 pages of memory by having both the 16MB RAM upgrade and the 1GB HDD). Although the Hard Disk Drive Kit costs significantly more than the RAM upgrade, it also enables the Di520 to perform additional significant functions. These include: Having a job queue of up to 10 jobs resident in the Di520. Editing the copy functions of a job in the queue. Creating a "Proof Set" and changing the copy functions if desired. Reprinting the job last printed ("Memory Recall"). Overlaying a pre-scanned image onto another original merging the two images together (e.g. copying the text of a letter onto a pre-scanned letterhead). "Job Lock" security function when printing from a computer. Minolta Page 7 of 7 Di520, 10/04/00
