Section 2: Evaluating Color Multifunction Printers
Overview
Xerox invented laser printing, Ethernet networking, and the first digital MFP — we’ve invested years of research and development into
designing the most productive office solutions in the industry. This experience has positioned Xerox as the recognized leader in office
MFP design and performance. Based on our in-depth understanding of customer requirements in the office, Xerox recommends that
you consider the following criteria in your evaluation process of workgroup-class copier/printers.
Productivity
Can it keep up with the demands of your daily and monthly workloads?
Installation and Deployment
How does the MFP ease the demands of the deployment process?
Ease of Use and Management
Does the MFP include tools and features to lighten the load for your IT staff?
Reliability
Is the MFP robust enough to meet your needs, and is it backed by quality service?
Versatility
Can the MFP be customized to meet your specific needs?
Security
Does the MFP help keep your confidential information private?
Cost Control
Can you monitor and control your organization’s cost of printing?
MFPs often look the same from the outside. Judging from a quick glance at features and
performance specifications, you might conclude that MFPs are largely equal. This section
of the Evaluator Guide suggests ways you can more thoroughly evaluate MFPs — you’ll
soon learn that the WorkCentre 7232/7242 MFP will exceed all your requirements.
