SITUATION:
You have a recurring job that comes in once a month to produce book
blocks for pharmaceutical catalogs.
THE JOB:
The book blocks must be printed with a finished size of 8.5˝ x 11˝
ON A XEROX DOCUTECH 6180:
In its maximum configuration, the DocuTech 6180 can hold 5,200
sheets of ledger-size paper. Given the fact that you purchased more
drawers wouldn’t it be nice if you could use them all for this print job?
What’s more, printing at a snail’s pace of 2,310 sheets per hour, limited
drawer capacity and speed on ledger-size paper, the DocuTech 6180
will run out of paper in two and a quarter hours.
ON THE OCÉ VARIOPRINT 6250:
In its maximum configuration of 12 drawers, the Océ VarioPrint 6250
can run 13,800 sheets of any size paper up to 12.6 x 19.2 inches in
each drawer—whether they are interposed or not, providing additional
built-in flexibility. Adding high capacity stackers that can hold up to
12,000 sheets automatically delivers finished stacks for every 3,000
sheets output, the Océ VarioPrint 6250 delivers productivity above and
beyond the requirements of the job.
THE RESULT:
Running uninterrupted for the same three hours as the Xerox
DocuTech 6180 (if it were possible), the Océ VarioPrint 6250 delivers
twice as much output—11,730 vs. 6,930 sheets. Your accelerated print
window just gave you more time. Coffee anyone?
Scenario 2 - three hours uninterrupted
All Uninterrupted Printing is Not Created Equal
Run two digital cut sheet printers uninterrupted for three hours and you’d expect the output to be about equal,
right? Not so. Factor in speed and input and output capacity and the numbers tell a dramatically different story.
