Evaluating Color Multifunction Printers
Customers today have many options among the entry-level color MFPs available on the market.
Evaluating and choosing the right product is important for your business but can also be a daunting task,
due to the number of offerings with similar specifications and feature sets. Based on years of experience
developing MFPs, Xerox has identified some key areas for you to consider as you evaluate your
entry-level color laser MFP options.
Color laser MFPs in this category are most often purchased to fulfill one of the following requirements:
• Inkjet replacement — customers who have used color inkjet printers and all-in-one devices in the
past and want to upgrade to a laser-based system
• Black-and-white replacement — customers intending to replace an existing black-and-white printer
or MFP with a color device that can handle their black-and-white print needs while providing
support for color
• Color printer replacement — customers who have an aging color laser printer to upgrade and would
like to simultaneously add multifunctionality to their office
If your company plans to purchase one or many color MFPs to meet these requirements,
Xerox recommends that you conduct your evaluation with the following criteria in mind:
Evaluate value and Productivity
The MFP you choose should deliver a powerful set of features and dynamic performance, maximizing
your investment and helping boost your office’s productivity.
Evaluate Convenience
Regardless of your business type or office size, the technology you deploy should be intuitive
and a good fit for your environment.
Evaluate Installation and Management
With or without IT resources, the MFP you purchase should be easy to deploy into your organization
and simple to manage on an ongoing basis.
This section of the Evaluator Guide will examine each of these areas and suggest ways you can evaluate
MFPs against these requirements. Do this for all the color MFPs you consider, and you’ll see how
the Phaser 6115MFP exceeds expectations on all counts.
