6 Xerox Phaser 8860MFP Evaluator Guide
When evaluating the costs of printing, it’s important to first think about your current
actual printing costs, whether you are using monochrome or color printers. Once you
understand the actual per-page costs of your printing activities, you can gain a deeper
understanding of the total costs associated with your printer over its lifetime.

Per-Page Printing Costs
When evaluating printing costs, most
small and medium-sized companies
think about the costs of purchasing new
consumables for their printer. Another way
to think about printing costs is the actual
per-page cost of the pages you print, as
this offers the truest reflection of the cost
of your printing activity. According to gap
intelligence, inc.

, the average per page
printing costs for workgroup-class color
printers are 1.4 cents for black-and-white
pages, and 8.9 cents for color pages. The
costs fluctuate depending on the area cov-
erage of the print, or the amount of toner
or solid ink used to print the image.
With the Phaser 8860MFP, Xerox is offer-
ing a revolutionary solution for controlling
color printing costs. With these products,
the cost of printing color pages is the
same as the cost of printing black-and-
white pages. The chart below illustrates
the area coverage rates for a variety of
commonly printed business documents,
and compares the costs of printing them
on average color laser printers against the
Phaser 8860MFP. Take a look, and con-
sider how much your company can save
while deploying color capabilities into your
environment.
