Section 2: Evaluating Multifunction Systems Overview As the company that invented laser printing, Ethernet networking, and the first digital multifunction system, Xerox has invested years of research and development in designing the most productive office devices in the industry. This experience has positioned Xerox as the recognized leader in office MFP design and performance.
Section 2: Evaluating Multifunction Systems Evaluate Productivity In addition to actual print engine speed, consider the things that affect overall throughput. Overall productivity considerations include multitasking capability, the speed of functions like scanning and faxing, device memory, and more.
Print features are accessed via easy and intuitive print drivers that utilize true Adobe® PostScript® 3™ or PCL® 5c emulation. These print drivers include bidirectional communication, which present system and supply status without forcing you to walk to the MFP or open a separate application.
Fax Features Network Traffic The Phaser 8560MFP includes fax in its standard functionality. With built-in 33.6 kbps fax transmission speeds, support for up to 200 speed dial settings and 100 group dial settings, and up to 400 x 400 dpi (Superfine) transmission resolution — the Phaser 8560MFP is the only fax machine you’ll need.
Section 2: Evaluating Multifunction Systems Evaluate Installation Installing and deploying a fleet of multifunction systems throughout your organization is a potentially time-consuming and complicated process. This process is not limited to physically placing the units in your environment — it also extends to how these systems will integrate into your existing network infrastructure.
Section 2: Evaluating Multifunction Systems Evaluate Ease of Use and Management Look for fully integrated functions that combine to create more value than the sum of their parts.
How the phaser 8560MFP exceeds the ease of management requirement: Network Printing It couldn’t be easier for the network administrator. The Phaser 8560MFP multifunction printer integrates seamlessly into virtually any network environment. Network configuration is easy with CentreWare install wizards, which eliminate the need for IT staff to travel from device to device to reset parameters, connect users or manage job queues.
Section 2: Evaluating Multifunction Systems Evaluate Reliability Productivity relies on tools that do their job day in and day out. Consider how often you need to intervene with the machine to replace paper or other consumables or to clear jams or other problems.
Section 2: Evaluating Multifunction Systems Evaluate Versatility Does the product have multiple configuration options to choose from, to fit your environment? Does the MFP feature the media support your business requires? Can multiple functions be performed simultaneously? Are third-party solutions available to integrate the MFP into your business processes? How the phaser 8560MFP exceeds the versatility requirement: Configurations All four configurations of the Phaser 8560MFP multifunction printer come sta
Section 2: Evaluating Multifunction Systems Evaluate Security Capabilities What types of security features does your office require? Does the device have the security features to meet this demand? Can the device access be protected by a password? Does the device remove latent images on disk drives and in memory? How the phaser 8560MFP exceeds the security requirement: Key security features built into the Phaser 8560MFP include: Standard Security Features • Hard Drive Overwrite — Electronically erases p
Section 2: Evaluating Multifunction Systems Evaluate Cost Control Controlling the cost of MFP and printer fleets is a critical capability for organizations of any size.
Section 3: Inside a Solid Ink Printing System Overview Look inside the Phaser 8560MFP multifunction printer and you’ll find a surprisingly simple printing mechanism for such a powerful printer. In simplest terms, to make a print, a printhead applies ink droplets, constituting a printed image, onto a rapidly rotating, heated drum. The image is transferred directly off the drum onto a sheet of paper. The final print is completely dry since the ink solidifies as soon as it transfers to the paper.
