EVALUATE EASE OF USE AND MANAGEMENT
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? Do the network
features give you full access to the power of your network? 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
?

It doesn’t matter if your job is simple or complex —
the front panel user interface (UI) is easy to learn and
offers quick job programming. The WorkCentre 7300
series utilizes an 8.1-inch color touch-screen UI that
enables total control of copy, scan and fax functions.
The touch-screen UI is intuitively organized, with the
most commonly accessed features on the default screen
and tab-based access to advanced programming features.
A selection of buttons accompanies the touch-panel UI for inputting and numbers, accessing manage-
ment features, and executing jobs (with the familiar green Start button). Third-party applications can
be integrated with the front panel UI as well (for more information, see Extensible Interface Platform
on page 13). Whether you’ve used a Xerox copier/printer or multifunction printer in the past or not,
you will find the WorkCentre 7300 series a pleasure to use.

The WorkCentre 7300 series utilizes CentreWare print drivers to provide an easy, intuitive way to
program jobs and get updated system status information. Like the front-panel touch-screen UI, the
print drivers are intuitively organized by tabs. The most commonly used features are located on the
default tab, with advanced features easily accessible when programming more complex jobs. The
print drivers also provide bidirectional information like system status, job status, currently loaded
paper sizes, installed options and more.
NETWOrK MANAGEMENT
It couldn’t be easier for the network administrator: The WorkCentre 7300 series integrates into virtu-
ally any network environment. Network configuration is made simple with CentreWare Web configu-
ration wizards, which eliminates the need for your IT staff to perform tasks at the front panel of each
device on your network. The WorkCentre 7300 series includes support for multiple native network
environments, including TCP/IP, IPv4/IPv6, SNMP, SMB, Novel IPX, AppleTalk and IPP.

Xerox CentreWare Web (CWW) software is a powerful device-management solution for IT departments.
CWW is free software that eases the chore of installing, configuration, managing, monitoring and
pulling reports from the networked printers and multifunction printers throughout your enterprise —
regardless of vendor. Xerox also addresses enterprise asset management through compatibility with
network management tools for Sun, Novell, Microsoft and other environments.
