Section 2: Evaluating Multifunction Printers Overview Based on continuous study of our customers’ business-productivity requirements, it is recommended that the following criteria be used when evaluating which MFP to purchase for your office.
Evaluate Productivity In addition to actual print engine speed, consider attributes that affect overall throughput.
Evaluate Installation and Deployment Installing and deploying MFPs organization-wide can be a time-consuming, complicated process. Consider the ease with which the device will integrate into the existing network infrastructure. Also, evaluate the process required to deploy printing and scanning services to your users, and whether the device includes helpful tools that automate the process.
Evaluate Ease of Use 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? How the WorkCentre 5225 / 5230 MFPs exceed the ease-of-use requirement Front Panel User Interface The WorkCentre 5225 / 5230 MFPs feature a touch-screen UI that’s easy to learn and enables quick job programming and total control of copy, scan and fax functions.
Evaluate Ease of Management Can you access current system status to avoid downtime? 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? How the WorkCentre 5225 / 5230 MFPs exceed the ease-of-management requirement Network Management The WorkCentre 5225 / 5230 MFPs seamlessly integrate into virtually any network environment.
Evaluate Reliability Office productivity relies on tools that reliably perform their jobs day in and day out. Consider how often users need to intervene to replace paper or other consumables or to clear jams.
Evaluate Versatility How many functions can the device perform? Will it support the media types and capacities required by users’ workloads? Does the device offer the kinds of finishing options that will help users get their jobs done more efficiently? Does the device include advanced technology that allows the integration of customized document workflows? How the WorkCentre 5225 / 5230 MFPs exceed the versatility requirement Copy Features The WorkCentre 5225 / 5230 MFPs support the daily copying volumes
• Watermarks adds labels such as “Draft,” “Confidential,” or customized messages to printed documents. Scan Features The WorkCentre 5225 / 5230 MFPs offer a complete set of scanning capabilities, both for companies that routinely digitize hard copy documents and those just beginning to implement digital processes. The 75-sheet DADF processes single- and double-sided originals at up to 55 ipm, meaning even long scan jobs are processed quickly.
Fax Features The WorkCentre 5225 / 5230 MFPs offer optional fax capabilities that help further consolidate office devices. These full-featured fax kits, combined with the concurrency of the WorkCentre 5225 / 5230, eliminate the need for a dedicated fax machine. Fax Kits include: • One-Line Fax Kit –– Walk-up fax traditional one-line, 33.6 Kbps phone-line faxing via front panel. –– LAN fax transmits faxes digitally from desktop computers via print driver (requires Printer/Copier configuration).

Evaluate Security Capabilities Do the devices under evaluation include the security features required to meet your business needs? Can device access be password protected? Can the device remove latent images from its hard drive? Are features in place to protect confidential documents? Does the vendor participate in testing and certification programs to guarantee data security? How the WorkCentre 5225 / 5230 MFPs exceed the security requirement Integrated Security Security is a critical competency in toda
• IP Filtering restricts access to the device by IP address or range of IP addresses. • IEEE 802.1x protocol ensures devices connected to the network are properly authenticated. • IPsec encrypts print jobs sent to the MFP utilizing IPsec. • IPv6 support built-in support for networks utilizing the IPv6 standard. Security at all points of vulnerability. • Secure data protocols secures network communications with industry standards including HTTPS (SSL), SNMP v3.0, and IPsec.
Evaluate Cost Control Cost of operation is one of the most important considerations when evaluating a multifunction device.
