subject: Locating The Correct Printer Model - Xerox's 8400 [print this page] 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 ink sticks for color printing. It is efficient and a good model to consider.
Some printers, such as this one, are fast and time-saving. This model spits out its first page in less than six seconds. The rest of the pages of that document print at roughly 24 per minute. If the printer has an issue during printing, the PrintingScout and PhaserSMART tools help make troubleshooting faster and easier. You can control the printer from your desk with the CentreWare embedded Web server, and the Usage Analysis tool tracks the printing history to help you run an efficient office.
The quality of documents is also important in printer purchasing. This printer produces high color, rich images that are particularly bright when you use its photo mode. The automatic color correction makes sure your document has an even quality to its printing, even when you have images and text on the same page.
It uses Solid Xerox Phaser ink and toner technology. It applies a microscopic layer of heated silicone oil to the page at a single pass. This method is environmentally friendly and low-waste. It provides saturated and consistent color on a variety of paper types.
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.
The Phaser model comes with many tools to simplify your printing processes. You can print more than one page on a single sheet, up to 16. The cover sheet option lets you print a cover sheet on one media and the rest on another. You can set your documents to be separated by blank sheets, to be collated, to auto fit to a page size, to print on two sides, or to print as a booklet. The printer can handle receiving multiple jobs at the same time, and can apply a watermark.
This is a fast printer with decent specs. The Phaser 8400 has 20 GB hard disk storage, 500 MHz PowerPC processor, Adobe PostScript 3, and 512 MB of memory. The printer can also copy and scan. Although it is limited by its paper size (max size is legal), it can handle many paper types. Also, this model has the option of connecting to a network.
