Other Xerox WorkCentre C2424 Advantages
C2424
Simple design = simple maintenance
The C2424’s solid ink technology is legendary for its ease of use. Loading ink is as easy as loading a
stapler…even a child can do it.
The HP device, as you can see in the photo series, is a complicated device. Opening its front cover engages
dozens of moving plastic parts that can be broken. And the number of steps it takes to replace toner car-
tridges is far more than what is required for the Xerox C2424.

Real-world performance
The C2424 has a dramatic performance advantage over HP’s LaserJet AiO in
both specifications and (more importantly) real-world performance.
Front display panel eliminates guesswork
The C2424’s front panel display is larger and shows more helpful
information, including animated graphics to aid in maintenance.
The HP 2800 series’ front panel is smaller, provides less
information at-a-glance, and requires more button pushing to
find what you need.
