EVALUATE EASE OF USE AND MANAGEMENT

Look for fully integrated functions that work together to create more value than the sum of their parts. Are the functions easy to learn? Is the user interface consistent from function to function? Do the network features give you full access to the power of your network? Does the device include additional software to take full advantage of your digital documents? Is the device easy for your IT organization to manage as part of its infrastructure?

It doesn’t matter if your job is simple or complex — the front panel user interface (UI) is easy to learn and offers quick job programming. The WorkCentre 7346 multifunction printer utilizes an 8.1-inch color touch- screen UI that enables total control of copy, scan and fax functions. The touch-screen UI is intuitively organized, with the most commonly accessed features on the default screen and tab-based access to advanced programming

features. A selection of buttons accompanies the touch-panel UI for inputting and numbers, accessing management features, and executing jobs (with the familiar green Start button). Third-party applica- tions can be integrated with the front panel UI as well (for more information, see Extensible Interface Platform on page 13). Whether you’ve used a Xerox copier/printer or multifunction printer in the past or not, you will find the WorkCentre 7346 multifunction printer a pleasure to use.

The WorkCentre 7346 multifunction printer utilizes CentreWare print drivers to provide an easy, intuitive way to program jobs and get updated system status information. Like the front-panel touch- screen UI, the print drivers are intuitively organized by tabs. The most commonly used features are located on the default tab, with advanced features easily accessible when programming more complex jobs. The print drivers also provide bidirectional information like system status, job status, currently loaded paper sizes, installed options and more.

NETWOrK MANAGEMENT

It couldn’t be easier for the network administrator: The WorkCentre 7346 multifunction printer integrates into virtually any network environment. Network configuration is made simple with Cen- treWare Web configuration wizards, which eliminates the need for your IT staff to perform tasks at the front panel of each device on your network. The WorkCentre 7346 multifunction printer includes support for multiple native network environments, including TCP/IP, IPv4/IPv6, SNMP, SMB, Novel IPX, AppleTalk and IPP.
