OVERALL PRINT PERFORMANCE

The Phaser 8560 is a high-performance colour printer based on Xerox-exclusive solid ink technology. 
It is designed to handle the daily demands of busy workgroups within both small and large companies.
Most importantly, it is designed with user flexibility foremost in mind. Users don’t want to be limited to a
single print speed or print mode, since some of their print jobs may demand maximum speed while others
require the best image quality possible. The Phaser 8560 colour printer incorporates this need for flexibility
by offering four print modes: fast colour, standard, enhanced (default mode), and high-resolution/photo mode. 

The Phaser 8560 printer delivers not only options but also performance. With print speeds as fast as 30
ppm, long print jobs can be tackled quickly. The other key performance metric for colour printers is
first-page-out time, and the Phaser 8560 delivers here as well, with a fast first-page-out time of as little as 5
seconds. For busy workgroups that regularly print a mix of long and short print jobs, the Phaser 8560
packs the performance needed to process jobs quickly and keep your office productive.

POWERFUL CONTROLLER

The Phaser 8560 controller is based on a 600 MHz PowerPC RISC processor with 256 MB of memory, standard
(512 MB of memory, maximum). This enables the Phaser 8560 printer to quickly process complex print jobs
and deliver its extremely fast first-page-out time.

BUILT TO BE SHARED

With standard support for 10/100Base-TX Ethernet networking, an 85,000-
page-per-month duty cycle, and a customisable paper capacity from 625 to
1,675 pages, the Phaser 8560 is truly built to be shared. Network administration
tools are provided to help IT departments track printer use, facilitate charge-
back billings, and plan for future printer deployment.
