Every office needs a printer, and it will be used daily in most. Although it doesn’t seem like a big decision, it is an important one. The Xerox Phaser 8400 Printer is a high quality, low price option that uses solid Xerox Phaser 8400 printer toner cartridges for color printing. It is efficient and a good model to consider.
This Xerox printer can save you time, particularly because of its fast printing speeds. Page one of your document will fall in the tray in roughly six seconds. The rest of the pages print at 24 per minute. The printer has easy troubleshooting because of its PrintingScout and PhaserSMART tools that give on screen instructions. Other time-saving tools include the CentreWare embedded Web server which you can use to control the printer from your desktop, and the Usage Analysis tool that you use to create a record of the printing history.
This printer produces very high quality documents. It has automatic color correction, which adjusts print method to the content so that you do not get a discrepancy between text and photo quality. Photo mode has high color, rich image printing.
Solid Xerox Phaser cartridges is not a term everyone knows, so here is a brief explanation. Solid ink uses silicone to create its image. A microscopic layer of heated silicone oil is transferred to the page in one pass, rather like an old fashioned print. The result is a low-waste, environment-friendly method that provides saturated color and consistent printing on a broad variety of papers.
The Phaser 8400 should last you a long time. It can handle up to 85000 pages per month, so it survives a sometimes heavy workload. It has a warranty for one year, and comes with the Total Satisfaction Guarantee.
Money-saving is part of the appeal of this particular line. It is particularly low price for its type, twice as fast as its cheaper rival while of higher quality than many more-expensive options. Printing with this machine will be a lot cheaper than using a printing company. This model can also do fast color, which uses less ink but also maintains the integrity of your images.
There are many tools that simplify your printing projects when you use the Phaser model. It has the typical auto fit to page size tool, and can print up to 16 pages on one sheet. Documents can be collated, double-sided, watermarked, or booklet printed. Two interesting tools are the cover sheet option, which allows you to use a different paper tray for page one of your document, and the separate sheet option, which puts a sheet between each document to make separating them significantly easier.
This model has good hardware and software options. It comes with a 500 MHz PowerPC processor, 512 MB of memory, 20 GB of hard disk storage, and Adobe PostScript 3. It can connect to a network, and can also copy and scan. Its maximum paper size is legal, put it can be used with many different types of paper including envelopes.
Consider the newer version of this printer line, the Phaser 8560, which also comes equipped with the high-quality Xerox Phaser 8400 printer toner cartridge. You can also consider software from Xerox, which should be compatible with this printer and its toner.
