Fast Output: The MPA4-3 makes prints at up to 10 pages per minute, with first print in 10 seconds -- ideal for busy libraries, schools, public-access archives, and local government offices.
Bi-Mode Printing (option): The bi-mode printing option gives you positive printouts whether you are using negative or positive film; an optional Automatic Mode Sensor eliminates that need to change film type settings manually.
Simple Front Operation: All vital controls are centrally located on the MPA4-3's front panel for easy operation; the paper supply cassette is easy to reach, and prints output from the front so you can complete your work without the need to leave your chair.
Precision Micro-Toning: Minolta's exclusive Micro-Toning system produces clear, high-contrast prints from every type of film.
Multiform Versatility: The MPA4-3 supports a wide range of film and fiche carriers: Minolta UC-2, UC-5, or UC-5M for quick changeover from 16mm or 35mm reels to fiche, aperture cards, or jackets; Fiche Carrier 5 to accommodate fiche, jackets, and aperture cards; Roll Film Carrier 9B, 11, 15A (for ANSI) or 15M (for M-type) cartridges, or Roll Film Carrier 21 (both ANSI and M-type) with auto load/rewind. (Carriers are interchangeable with Minolta 600-Series readers/printers.)
Interchangeable Lenses: Choose from four types of lenses that provide all the magnification ratios you'll need -- from a single-focus 7.5x lens, to zoom lenses that span 9 - 16x, 13 - 27x, or 23 - 50x zoom ratios. (Lenses are interchangeable with the MPA4-4.)
Automatic Exposure Control: Senses film exposure and automatically adjusts to the appropriate level.
Automatic Centering (optional): Repositions off-centered screen images before printing.
Automatic Image Rotation (optional): Senses landscape or portrait orientation and automatically rotates the image for printing, saving time by minimizing manual adjustments.
Manual & Automatic Frame Masking (optional): Manual Masking lets you use LCD buttons to mask unnecessary information from your print; Automatic Frame Masking eliminates heavy black borders to make prints look better and save valuable toner.
Automatic Skew Correction: Adjusts up to 30° to compensate for images that were slanted during the filming process -- and saves the time it takes to make minor adjustments for each misaligned frame.
MARS Control Capability: When using Minolta roll film carriers RFC-15A, RFC-15M, or RFC-21, the Minolta MARS 4 or MARS Mini 2 Controller enables your computer-aided retrieval software to automatically search, retrieve, and print blipped microfilm images.
Workstation 5: A modern workstation is available for the MPA4-3, with heavy-duty single ball bearing wheels and a convenient front pullout shelf. Holes are pre-drilled for quick and easy installation of the 3390 coin-operation accessory.
