SECTION 2
Evaluating Multifunction devices
EVALUATION CRITERIA
As the company that invented laser printing, Ethernet networking, and the first digital Multi–
Function Product (MFP), Xerox has invested years of research and development in designing
the most productive office devices 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 needs in the office, Xerox recommends the following criteria be considered in the
evaluation process of a shared MFP:
• Productivity – can it keep up with the demands of a multiple user environment?
• Ease of Use – are all the capabilities integrated and intuitive?
• Reliability – is it designed and build for demanding use and backed by a quality organization?
• Versatility – can the MFP grow with changing demands?
• Finishing – can the MFP provide the distribution ready documents that you require?
MFPs often look the same from the outside. And from a quick look at specifications on speeds,
feeds, and print resolution, you might incorrectly conclude that most MFPs are basically equal.
This section of the Evaluator Guide will suggest ways you can thoroughly evaluate them, and
show how the Xerox CopyCentre C2128/C2636/C3545 and WorkCentre Pro C2128/C2636/C3545
models can best meet your needs.
EVALUATE
PRODUCTIVITY
In addition to actual print engine speed consider the things that effect overall throughput. Are the scan-
ning and faxing features powerful enough for your busy workgroup? What is the warm-up wait time? Is
the device sized for the entire workgroup? Can features be used at the same time or are users forced to wait
for the device to be “free”? Can you monitor the device functions from your desktop and at the device?
ADVANTAGE
XEROX
HOW XEROX COPYCENTRE C2128/C2636/C3545 AND WORKCENTRE
PRO C2128/C2636/C3545 EXCEED THE PRODUCTIVITY REQUIREMENT
With up to 35 ppm color and 45 ppm black and white output speed, a 32 ppm scan speed,
concurrent scanning and printing, and a warm-up time of 60 seconds or less, documents can
be produced quickly with less time spent at the device. Automatic features like auto image
quality, auto registration, auto rotation, auto paper select, auto tray switching and auto job
recovery ensure crisp and clear images and the fastest, best-in class quality output every time.
A powerful 733MHz processor accelerates document traffic and maximizes network resources.
Files are sent over the network just once no matter how many sets are being printed. Files are
processed at the device, off the network, freeing up user’s workstations and minimizing network
traffic. Plus, with concurrent scan and print capability, someone can be scanning in one document,
while a second document is printing and a third is being received over the network. This results
in network printing performance that is unmatched in the industry.
There are no unknowns. Up-to-date information on every job; print, copy, scan, email, or fax, plus
in-depth device information at your fingertips. Either at the device or from your desktop you can
manage documents and jobs through an integrated job queue, display job progress and status, and
manage jobs all with a few mouse clicks or button pushes.

EVALUATE
EVALUATE EASE OF USE
Look for fully integrated functions that work together to create more value than the sum of their parts.
Are the functions easy to learn? Is the user interface consistent from function to function? Do the net-
work features give you full access to the power of your network? Does the device include additional
software to take full advantage of your digital documents?
ADVANTAGE
XEROX
HOW XEROX COPYCENTRE C2128/C2636/C3545 AND WORKCENTRE
PRO C2128/C2636/C3545 EXCEED THE EASE OF USE REQUIREMENT
It doesn’t matter if the job is simple or complex – a large, intuitive graphical interface and
integrated control panel guide users through every task, making even the most complex copy
jobs easier than ever.
Walk-up users have an intuitive and simple to use touch screen interface. The most commonly used features
are accessed directly from the main screen. And the “Help Button” on the control panel is always available to
assist the walk-up user.
With advanced features like Covers, Transparency Interleave and
N-Up, you have a variety of output options. And, with Build Job
you can easily integrate documents from the document handler and
the platen or from different paper trays – even mix simplex and
duplex output into a single job. Use “sample last segment” to
review or change the output of your job section by section. There’s
no need to rescan the entire job if you make an error. Use “sample
set” to run a proof set of the entire job to be sure the output exactly
matches your requirements before it’s printed.
WorkCentre Pro C2128/C2636/C3545 includes CentreWare® print
drivers with a clear, graphical user interface that provides an easy,
intuitive way to interact with the printer. The drivers provide imme-
diate desktop access to all WorkCentre Pro output functions.
Advanced functions such as watermarks, invert image, print-to-
edge, N-Up, booklet layout, transparency interleaving, covers and
toner saver are simple to access.
The top tab provides icons for the most commonly
used functions such as selecting paper and docu-
ment finishing. Plus with the “saved settings” fea-
ture, frequently used print job parameters can be
stored for later reuse.

EVALUATOR GUIDE FOR COPYCENTRE C2128 • C2636 • C3545 / WORKCENTRE PRO C2128 • C2636 • C3545
The driver also provides bi-directional information, indicating device status, job status, currently
loaded paper sizes and types and installed options so there is no need to consult other software in
order to obtain this information.
It couldn’t be easier for the network administrator. WorkCentre Pro C2128/C2636/C3545 integrates
seamlessly into virtually any network environment. No more trips from device to device to reset
parameters, connect new users and establish queues. Network configuration is easy with CentreWare
install wizards. On-board SNMP support lets customers integrate with other network frameworks.
Innovative features like auto IP addressing, device naming and Ethernet speed sensing provide simple
and automatic installation on networks. Xerox also addresses enterprise asset management with free
enterprise management software plus an array of compatible network management tools for Sun,
Novell, Microsoft and other environments. These products include an “embedded web browser” that
allows users and IT personnel to perform detailed status checks and even change configuration
without any special software tools.
Xerox CentreWare Web is web based software that installs,
configures, manages, monitors and reports on the networked
printers and multifunction devices throughout the enterprise
– regardless of the manufacturer.
CentreWare Internet Services
is a web server embedded in
every WorkCentre/WorkCentre
Pro. You can submit and
monitor print jobs and
machine status from any-
where – from your intranet to
the world wide web.

EVALUATE
EVALUATE RELIABILITY
Productivity relies on tools that do their job day-in and day-out. Consider how often you need to
intervene with the machine to replace paper or other consumables or to clear jams or other problems.
How easy is that intervention and how long is the device down? If outside assistance is required, how
easy is it to arrange and how long do you have to wait?

XEROX
HOW XEROX COPYCENTRE C2128/C2636/C3545, AND WORKCENTRE
PRO C2128/C2636/C3545 EXCEED THE RELIABILITY REQUIREMENT
Simple paper paths and a minimum of moving parts means there is very little that can go wrong.
Most components that wear over time can be replaced in a snap without a service call. You’re up and
running without delay.
Advances in color, image quality and speed are all built on market-proven, reliable technologies –
and tested in the field on our DocuColor and Phaser series printers.
• The Micro Tandem Engine and Intermediate Belt Transfer enable faster color printing and
copying speeds in a very small footprint. Four developer assemblies – one for each process color
of cyan, magenta, yellow and black – process each color individually and then transfer that image
onto the intermediate image belt, registering it with the previous images. So, rather than having
the paper pass through the machine eight times for a two-sided print, it passes through only twice
– for better registration and reliability.
• The short, straight paper path also allows WorkCentre Pro to handle heavyweight paper – up to
80 lb cover / 110 lb index / 220 gsm from all trays.
• The Belt Fuser has an extended contact area, which means toner adheres more completely for
fast printing and a professional finish.

Both the CopyCentre C2128/C2636/C3545 and WorkCentre C2128/C2636/C3545 separate color and
black-and-white page counts to allow for separate billing of these pages.
Both of these products take care of the black and white pages automatically for you:
• By selecting Automatic Color Copy, the device detects black-and-white and color pages sepa-
rately in the original source document and prints and charges for them at their different rates. In
addition, you can select Black-and-White Only to copy color documents in black-and-white.
These output settings can be assigned as the copy default for the device.
• By selecting Automatic Color Print the device detects black-and-white pages within a print job
even with the output selection set to Color. The black-and-white printed pages are then printed
and charged at the black-and-white rate.
Print and Copy auditron can both track
and control usage. You can configure the
auditron to limit the number of color pages,
black-and-white pages, or both that a partic-
ular user or group may use. For example,
you can limit certain users to black-and-
white only.
