EvALuATE IMAGE QuALITy
Image quality takes into account a number of factors. The image quality of a colour printer-copier is
directly tied to the imaging technology it is based on. Colour management features that allow you to
fine-tune the output of your printer-copier will also ensure you get the vibrant, accurate colour your
applications require.
IMAGING TEChNOLOGy
With 2400 x 2400 dpi resolution for both copy and print, you can be sure you’re getting
high-quality output with excellent fine-line detail and crisp text. This high resolution is enabled
by Xerox VCSEL technology, which utilises a 32-beam laser to write data at a quicker rate
and at a higher resolution.
The DocuColor 242 / 252 / 260 printer-copier utilises Xerox Emulsion Aggregate High Grade
(EA-HG) toner, which is chemically grown rather than ground. EA-HG toner features smaller
and more uniformly sized particles, resulting in fine colour detail and smooth transitions. There
is even an Enhanced Gloss Mode for printing and copying to add higher gloss levels to print
and copy jobs.
You will also get consistent colours with the DocuColor 242 / 252 / 260. Developer material, or
carrier, is included in the toner cartridges, enabling fresh developer to be constantly added and
resulting in consistent print quality print after print and copy after copy.
COLOuR MANAGEMENT
Xerox delivers advanced colour management and profiling options with the DocuColor 242 / 252 / 260.
These options allow you to proof your documents against other mediums like printing presses, web
pages, copiers or digital presses. You can optimise the colour output of your document throughout
the design process and eliminate surprises in the production phase.
An array of advanced colour-management and colour-matching utilities is also available with the
optional external colour servers. Optional colour servers available for the DocuColor 242 / 252 /
260 include the Xerox FreeFlow
