IATSD “Snapshot” of Competitive Productivity Test Results
In the chart below, the 40-ppm WORKiO DP-C401’s black-and-white copier productivity is compared to that of
another color device tested by IATSD, one rated at 38 ppm in black-and-white by its manufacturer.
As may be seen, the WORKiO DP-C401 was faster than the other unit in duplex mode, but slower in simplex
mode.
