Evaluating Colour Multifunction Printers

Section 2

Customers today have many options among the entry-level colour multifunction printers available on the market. Evaluating and choosing the right product is important for your business but can also be a daunting task, due to the number of offerings with similar specifications and feature sets. Based on years of experience developing multifunction printers, Xerox has identified some key areas for you to consider as you evaluate your entry-level colour laser multifunction printer options.

Colour laser multifunction printers in this category are most often purchased to fulfill one of the following requirements:

•Inkjet replacement — customers who have used colour inkjet printers and all-in-one systems in the past and want to upgrade to a laser-based system

•Black and white replacement — customers intending to replace an existing black and white printer or multifunction printer with a colour system that can handle their black and white print needs while providing support for colour

•Colour printer replacement — customers who have an ageing colour laser printer to upgrade and would like to simultaneously add multifunctionality to their office

If your company plans to purchase one or many colour multifunction printers to meet these requirements, Xerox recommends that you conduct your evaluation with the following criteria in mind:

EvaluateValue and Productivity

The multifunction printer you choose should deliver a powerful set of features and dynamic performance, maximising your investment and helping boost your office’s productivity.

Evaluate Convenience

Regardless of your business type or office size, the technology you deploy should be intuitive and a good fit for your environment.

Evaluate Installation and Management

With or without IT resources, the multifunction printer you purchase should be easy to deploy into your organisation and simple to manage on an ongoing basis.

This section of the Evaluator Guide will examine each of these areas and suggest ways you can evaluate multifunction printers against these requirements. Do this for all the colour multifunction printers you consider, and you’ll see how the Phaser 6115MFP exceeds expectations on all counts.
