Section 2
Evaluating Colour Multifunction Printers
Customers today have many options among the entry-level colour multifunction printers 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 multifunction printers, Xerox has identified some key areas for you to consider
as you evaluate your entry-level colour laser multifunction printer options.
Colour laser multifunction printers in this category are most often purchased to fulfill one of the
following requirements:
• Inkjet replacement — customers who have used colour inkjet printers and all-in-one systems 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 multifunction printer with a colour system that can handle their black and white print needs while
providing support for colour
• Colour printer replacement — customers who have an ageing colour laser printer to upgrade and
would like to simultaneously add multifunctionality to their office
If your company plans to purchase one or many colour multifunction printers to meet these requirements,
Xerox recommends that you conduct your evaluation with the following criteria in mind:
Evaluatevalue and Productivity
The multifunction printer you choose should deliver a powerful set of features and dynamic performance,
maximising 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 multifunction printer you purchase should be easy to deploy into
your organisation 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
multifunction printers against these requirements. Do this for all the colour multifunction printers you
consider, and you’ll see how the Phaser 6115MFP exceeds expectations on all counts.

Does the combination of entry level price and performance allow you to consolidate systems and
simplify your technology? Will the image quality meet your day-to-day printing, copying, scanning and
faxing needs? Does the multifunction printer include the media support you need to run your business?
Will the multifunction printer deliver the overall performance — as well as the print, copy, scan and
fax features — that you need to increase your productivity?

rEPLACE ANd CONSOLIdATE STANd-ALONE SYSTEMS
Colour laser multifunction printers like the Phaser 6115MFP help small, space-constrained offices
streamline multiple single-function systems into a single multifunction unit by delivering the
features and performance you’d expect from stand-alone printers, scanners and fax machines. For
example, if you currently have a 15 ppm black and white printer, you can replace that system with
the Phaser 6115MFP and increase your black and white print speed to 20 ppm, with the addition of
colour print, copy, scan and fax capabilities built right in.
IMAGE QuALITY
With a print resolution of up to 2400 x 600 dpi and a copy resolution of up to 600 x 600 dpi, the
Phaser 6115MFP is capable of delivering the high-quality print output you need to support the
professional image of your business. Image quality applies to the Phaser 6115MFP scan capabilities
as well, with a resolution up to 600 x 600 dpi. Scan image quality is uncompromised as well, with
settings up to 203 x 392 dpi for black and white faxing.
PAPEr SuPPOrT
The Phaser 6115MFP can handle a variety of media sizes, weights and types to support the range of
documents you print as part of your company’s daily business. The standard configuration includes
a paper tray that holds up to 200 sheets of paper, with support for:
• Paper Sizes — Supported sizes include custom sizes from 92 x 148 mm to 216 x 356 mm in
Tray 1 and A4-size papers in Tray 2.
• Paper Weights — Supported weights ranging from 60 to 200 gsm in Tray 1 and 60 to 90 gsm
in Tray 2
• Paper Types — Supported media types include plain paper, envelopes, labels,
transparencies and card stock

speeds of 20 ppm black and white and 5 ppm colour. First-page-out times run as fast as 14 seconds
for black and white documents and 23 seconds for colour documents, reducing downtime spent
waiting for your documents to print. A print resolution of up to 2400 x 600 dpi delivers crisp text
and professional-looking prints, whether you’re printing internal documents or customer-facing collaterals.
The Phaser 6115MFP is packed with advanced printing features, including:
• Booklet printing — Formats printed documents for folding into booklets
