Phaser 4400  
Evaluating Workgroup Laser Printers  
By definition, a workgroup printer is a shared resource. Typically, a network laser printer is shared by up to 25 people  
on a regular basis. It is also common for there to be multiple computer platforms, such as the various versions of  
Microsoft Windows, MacOS, Unix, or Linux. By far the most popular network used is Ethernet with TCP/IP protocols.  
But even with multiple users on a variety of platforms with their own unique applications and needs, all networked  
printer users require three things from their printers:  
Performance Features  
Ease of Use  
Value  
This section of the Evaluator Guide will look at each of these areas, and suggest ways you can evaluate a printer’s  
performance against that requirement. Do this for all workgroup laser printers you are considering and you’ll see how  
the Phaser 4400 exceeds expectations on all counts.  
Evaluate Performance Features  
Today’s busy workgroups have no time to waste,  
whatever their size. Consider raw engine speed, but also  
look at RIP speed (largely determined by processor  
speed), first-page-out time, and the ability to process  
multiple jobs concurrently to give you a feel for the  
printer’s total throughput capability.  
What types of documents do your users typically  
produce? Do they need a variety of media capabilities?  
(i.e. pre-printed letterhead on fine bond paper, standard  
peer-to-peer quality laser paper, transparency media,  
card stock, envelopes, etc.) Is automatic two-sided  
printing (duplexing) important?  
Speed at the cost of quality is not acceptable. Consider  
the resolution of the printer as represented in a variety  
of text styles and sizes. Also consider fills, gradients,  
graphic elements, and photo images.  
How The Phaser 4400 EXCEEDS  
The Performance Requirement:  
At 26 pages-per-minute, the Phaser 4400 races through  
As for media flexibility, the Phaser 4400 provides up to  
1750 sheet input capacity divided into 4 sources for  
more uninterrupted printing and fewer user interven-  
tions. You’ll always print on the media you expect  
thanks to the Phaser 4400’s Smart Trays technology.  
The printer driver knows what media is in each tray and  
what your MS Office application is set for, and then  
matches them perfectly.  
long or multi-set jobs, avoiding non-productive log jams  
from multiple users. The 266 MHz image processor  
provides a first-page-out time of just 11 seconds and  
handles even complex jobs quickly to help maintain  
office productivity. And the true 1200 x 1200 dpi  
resolution at full rated speed means there is no need to  
sacrifice print quality for print speed. Finally, the ability  
to handle peak loads of up to 150,000 impressions-per-  
month, means the Phaser 4400 will be able to handle  
even the heaviest network loads.

Evaluate Ease of Use  
The best way to evaluate a printer’s ease of use is to use it in a real world environment over an extended period of time.  
But even without that opportunity, the following questions can help uncover a printer’s true start-up and day-to-day  
Ease of Use potential:  
Also, consider what tools are provided to help  
manage multiple printers in a network.  
Can you easily reach all areas of a printer?  
Is it easy to check the consumable status before  
committing to a large or important print job?  
How easy is it to learn to use and manage?  
Does it offer easy control both over the  
network and from its front panel?  
How The Phaser 4400 EXCEEDS  
The Ease of Use Requirement:  
The security of system access has been modeled after  
Microsoft system security levels. And MaiLinX pro-  
vides automatic email alerts to specified individuals for  
printer conditions requiring attention. For example, a  
“Low Toner” message sent to a purchasing manager  
could act as a reminder to order supplies before the  
printer runs out completely.  
The Phaser 4400 represents the first monochrome laser  
printer from the Xerox Office Printing Business to  
incorporate most of the powerful Phaser features  
developed for our color printer products. From the  
simple one-click installation, to PrintingScout our  
unique real time print monitor and proactive help  
software, the Phaser 4400 is packed with big printer  
features. The Phaser 4400 can even trouble-shoot on its  
own with PhaserSmartour unique internet-based  
automated support system.  
Our CentreWare IS works with an embedded web server  
in the printer. Just pull up the printer’s URL and go to  
the CentreWare Internet Services site using your  
favorite Web browser and easily find all you need to  
know about it — current status, user manuals, trouble-  
shooting guides, software drivers, and hot links to  
Xerox product information, software updates, and  
support resources.  
Network administrators can easily monitor, configure,  
and troubleshoot the printer right from their desktop —  
keeping the printer and its users running at full speed. It  
can also discover all of your networked printers and  
multifunction devices, regardless of manufacturer. On  
the Phaser 4400, CentreWare IS allows users to access  
the saved job repository directly from their desktops.  
Evaluator Guide

Evaluate Value  
Performance Features and Ease of Use must be bal-  
anced against the total cost of owning and operating a  
networked printer over time.  
Count the cost of operation. The total cost-per-print can  
be every bit as important as the purchase price. It is  
especially important to consider all the consumables the  
printer may require over its lifetime and to calculate the  
contribution each of these items makes to the average  
cost-per-page.  
Find the true purchase price. Include everything needed  
for a workgroup printer to begin printing right away. If  
extra-cost add-ons are needed, such as a network card or  
special cabling, then these costs must be added to the  
original purchase price.  
Estimate the cost of keeping the printer printing. Start  
with durability: Does the duty cycle indicate that the  
printer can handle a large volume of printing? And don’t  
forget the “hidden” costs — especially how often the  
printer needs attention from users and whether any  
special skills are required to change consumables or  
troubleshoot problems.  
How The Phaser 4400 EXCEEDS  
The Value Requirement:  
The Phaser 4400 presents big printer features at a small  
The Phaser 4400 prints on plain paper, transparencies,  
laser-quality labels, envelopes, cover stock, and re-  
cycled paper. Xerox is the only printer manufacturer to  
offer die cut business card media and CD/DVD labels  
and inserts. For details about Phaser branded supplies,  
printer price. With a base price of just $899*, the Phaser  
4400 packs in more standard features than any other  
printer in this class. By combining a fast print engine, a  
fast processor, high resolution and high duty cycle and  
you get a powerful office productivity tool.  
The Phaser 4400 handles media weights from 16 lb.  
Bond (60 gsm) to 133 lb. card stock (216 gsm). Sizes  
can range from 3 x 5 in. up to 8.5 x 14 in. as well as  
user definable custom sizes in between. For top quality  
results, Xerox-branded supplies are engineered to  
provide optimum performance in your Phaser printer.  
An input capacity of up to 1750 sheets and an output  
capacity up to 1000 sheets assures office users of more  
uninterrupted printing and less user intervention. You’ll  
always print on the media you expect thanks to the  
Phaser 4400’s Smart Trays technology. The printer  
driver knows what media is in each tray and what your  
MS Office application is set for, and then matches them  
perfectly.
