The WorkCentre 7120’s innovative print
drivers were recognized with a BLI “Pick” award
for “Outstanding Achievement,” Fall 2008
The WorkCentre 7120 uses the Global Print Driver and the Mobile Express
Print Driver, which received a BLI “Outstanding Achievement Award” in
Fall 2008.
“In our lab trial using the Xerox Global and Mobile Print Drivers, we were
able to print documents on non-Xerox devices, including copier-based
and printer-based models, on our test network,” said Tony Maceri, BLI’s
senior test technician. This flexibility lets workers print anywhere in their
office, even on non-Xerox printers and copiers, with a single interface,
instead of having to keep numerous print drivers installed (which is time-
consuming for IT workers as well as confusing to end users).
