Section 2: Evaluating Workgroup Multifunction Printers Overview Based on continuous study of our customers’ productivity requirements, Xerox recommends that the following criteria be used when evaluating which department-class copier/printer to purchase for your office.
Evaluate Productivity In addition to actual print engine speed, consider the factors that affect overall throughput.
Monitoring System Status With the WorkCentre 5600 Series devices, up-to-date information on every job — print, copy, scan, email or fax, plus in-depth device information — is always at a user’s fingertips. Whether at the device or from the desktop, users can manage documents and jobs through an integrated job queue with a few mouse-clicks or button pushes.
Evaluate IT Compatibility One of the most important considerations when evaluating a new copier/printer/MFP is its ability to meet current and future network and security standards. Is the device compatible with the latest technologies? Can it be easily upgraded to stay up to speed with new technological developments? How the WorkCentre 5600 Series exceeds the IT compatibility requirement: Cutting-edge Internet and security standards meet today’s most demanding office requirements.
Evaluate Installation and Deployment Installing and deploying a fleet of copier/printers and multifunction devices throughout your organization is a potentially timeconsuming, complicated process. The process isn’t limited to physically placing the units in their new environments, but also includes integrating the devices with the existing network infrastructure. Also consider the process required to deploy printing and scanning services to your users, and how automated that process can be.
Evaluate Ease of Use and Management Look for fully integrated functions that work together to create more value than the sum of their parts.
printers throughout your enterprise — regardless of vendor. Xerox also addresses enterprise asset management through compatibility with network management tools for Sun, Novell, Microsoft and other environments.
Evaluate Reliability Office productivity relies on tools that do their jobs day in and day out. Consider how often you need to intervene to replace paper or other consumables or to clear jams.
Evaluate Versatility How many functions can the device perform? Can it support the media types and capacity users require? Does the copier/printer offer the kinds of finishing options that can help your staff perform their jobs more efficiently? How the WorkCentre 5600 Series exceeds the versatility requirement: Copy Features WorkCentre 5600 Series devices comprise reliable, workgroup-class digital MFPs capable of supporting the daily copying volumes of busy workgroups.
Print Features As with copying, the WorkCentre 5600 Series devices deliver a range of output speeds to fit your organization’s specific needs. Black-and-white print speeds vary by model, ranging from up to 32 ppm to up to 90 ppm.
Additional Xerox scan software is available to expand the capabilities of your WorkCentre 5600 series MFP: • Xerox Scan to PC Desktop® — bundles Nuance® PaperPort® software for scanning, organizing and sharing images with Nuance OmniPage® software, which converts hard-copy documents into searchable and editable electronic files • Xerox SMARTsend® — eases the process of editing metadata, choosing file formats, and distributing scanned files to multiple destinations, including remote printers, email, network
Paper capacity and media support offered by the WorkCentre 5600 Series devices include: • Standard Trays — –– Bypass Tray — 100 sheets, custom sizes from 4.13 x 5.83 in. (A6) to 11 x 17 in. (A3), 16 to 57 lb. bond/80 lb. cover (60 to 216 gsm) –– Trays 1 and 2 — 500 sheets each, custom sizes from 5.5 x 8.5 in. (A5) to 11 x 17 in. (A3), 16 to 53 lb. bond/110 lb.
Xerox Extensible Interface Platform™ (EIP) Xerox EIP is a software platform inside the WorkCentre 5600 Series devices that enables personalized solutions users can access right from the device touch screen. These applications can leverage existing databases and meet your specific business challenges. Users benefit from simplified and personalized workflows: • Simplified user experience.
Evaluate Security Capabilities What types of security requirements are critical to your office? Does the device have the security features to meet these demands? Can device access be password protected? Does the system remove latent images on its hard drive? Does the system have features in place to protect confidential documents? How the WorkCentre 5600 Series exceeds the security requirement: Integrated Security In today’s business environment, security is a critical competency.
Third-party Certification Xerox has a proven track record of participation and compliance with emerging government security standards and third-party testing and certification. The prime example of the Xerox commitment is our participation in the Common Criteria Certification process: Xerox submits its products, along with highly structured statements of the product’s information security capabilities, for validation by an independent, government-sponsored laboratory.
Evaluate Cost Control One of the most important things to consider when evaluating an MFP is its cost of operation.
