Laser printers run at 40 pages per minute. So, in one sense, a 200-page book will take about 7 minutes (5 minutes to print, about 2 minutes to bind and trim). However, because books can be printed in parallel on a multi-printer version of the machine, you do not have to wait 7 minutes between books. In fact the machine can make an average size book every 2-3 minutes with the two printer model.
