Slight Improvement on 8400 Phaser

Advantages: does duplex
Disadvantages: not quick enough, now behind with the times

...As a have stated in my previous review, I have three colour printers at work, one super duper one, a second being relatively good and my back up plan which was my last review. The Xerox Phaser 8560 I have had for two years and decided to keep when I recently upgraded to my super duper printer that is my pride and joy when I am in creative mode at work. The Xerox Phaser 8560 replaced the 8400 a couple of years ago and we saw several improvements to the machine as you normally do, better going forwards than backwards. The Phaser 8560 is a great printer and again takes crayon as opposed to ink that give it that excellent finish when producing reletively professional documents. The sytling of the machine is very similar to that of the 8400, it is exactly the same size, and has the same control panel on the top of it which is good...

Review of Xerox Phaser 8560DN

Phaser 6180n in use

Advantages: Fast, economical,good for pictures, easy to connect to a network
Disadvantages: size, paper tray hard to open if kept on the floor

...I needed a colour printer which did not require expensive ink cartridges every 90 pages or so. I choose the Xerox 6180N which cost me under £200. It is very economical. it prints all types of paper formats and is very fast. The network facility works well with my 6 computers on the network and seems to accept documents from one computer running SuSe Linux The toners can be expensive , but firms like Toner Giant offer very good compatibles. The downside is the size, it has a large footprint and is very tall, and can only take 250 sheets in the standard tray, and I am loathed to buy an expensive second tray. It is not suitable as a home printer, but would be good for a home office or small business. Saying that , it does produce very good pictures when using mid range photo papers designed for colour laser printers. Anyone printing...

Xerox 6100

Advantages: Easy to use, inexpensive ink, print quality
Disadvantages: slow to warm up, slightly loud

...I purchased this printer for the office a couple of months ago and it is a real winner. Works 12 hours a day, is quite quick in setting up new pages, offers much clearer print quality than I had expected for a colour laser printer of this price range, it is easy to use, didn't need time consuming training sessions ( easy double side printing too) and works well as part of the office net with four other PCs printing through it. More important perhaps is that the original replacement ink cartridges are reasonably proced too and that the ink cartridges last relatively long ( we print our logo together with the text or report so quite a lot o ink is used ). As negative point I would point to the fact that the 6100 needs quite a long time to warm up and that it does create quite a high level of noise. In any case I have since...

My New Pride & Joy at Work

Advantages: great colour, fast, takes all weights and sizes of paper
Disadvantages: smells at the moment

...Last year was a good year for me at work, I didn't seem to have to ask for anything, it was all suggested by my boss, new lap top, new widescreen pc for when I was in the office and new colour printer even though the lease hadn't quite ran out on my old one. However there are always ulterior motives to everything, nice new lap top means I can work more from home, new wide screen PC means I can design more in house and nice new printer meant that I could print more of my designs in house as opposed to outsourcing it. Having two colour printers in the office, both Xerox Phaser's but getting to the stage where they had had there day, I called Pete, my local printer expert to come down and have a chat with me about what options were available to me. His eyes probably lit up when I made that call, as when he tries to contact me, I'm either...

Review of Xerox Phaser 7760GX

Good in its day!!

Advantages: quality prints
Disadvantages: bit slow now, lot less features than up to date models

...Within my position at work, it is extremely important that I have a decent printer and to be honest, I don't have one, I have three that I use for various print jobs that I may perform in-house. The Xerox Phaser 8400 is what I call my back up plan, used occasionally, when I may have ran out on consumables for my other printers of if I want to get a job done quick, I may use them all at the same time. All our printers are leased and unfortunately the Phaser 8400 is no longer available to purchase or lease as new anymore, however some companies do offer ex-demonstration machines and you may be able to acquire one of these this way. Since the 8400 was born, it has been upgraded and hs now been replaced by the 8560. The 8400 however I feel during its day was an excellent machine and still continues to produce quality prints...

Review of Xerox Phaser 8400B

An all singing, all dancing printer

Advantages: cheap, reliable, good quality print outs, compact
Disadvantages: nothing springs to mind as being a disadvantage as such

...If you are looking to purchase a new printer may I be so bold to suggest that you stop your search now and look no further than the Xerox Phaser 6110? No you say, ok, why I don't I explain why you should listen. I work from home, and have been using the Phaser 6110 now for 6 months to mainly print of bulk letter projects, colour charts and general pages from the internet. I would say that my printing is probably above average, sometimes printing over 500 pages a day. Since I have owned the printer, it has only needed one routine service and two replacement toner cartridges, so in its favour it has reliability. This is not all though readers, the Phaser 6110 is both a black/white and colour printer combo that really doesn't take up much space when you consider the size of such gigantic machines at the HP Laserjet 4. It's actual...

Review of Xerox Phaser 6110N

Spoil her and she'll look after you.

Advantages: Solid and Reliable
Disadvantages: Running costs

...The Xerox Phaser 6125vn comes from a long line of thoroughbreds, Xerox are experts at turning out solid printers and they even look good. The print quality is more than adequate and there print speed is ok too. This printer is great for small offices, Estate Agents seem to like them and I can see why, they are reliable and ideal for printing house info with colour pictures of "nice fixer uppers". There are a couple of drawbacks however, Xerox toner is not cheap so running costs can be a little on the high side, also getting this printer repaired once its out of warrantee can be frustrating, Xerox will repair but there prices go through the roof and getting parts is an expensive and torturous ordeal if you want to fit them yourself, I have to order bits from France and it can take up to 14 days. Having said that The Xerox Phaser 6125vn...

Castrated fax machine lookalike?

Advantages: Print quality, realistic colour, curves!
Disadvantages: cost of replacing ink.

..., and more powerful (hence bigger wallet denting) 8400 series, this printer has been on sale since 2002. At the time it was the first of its kind, a market leader. This is all down to the Xerox patented single-pass technology (nope, doesn?t mean much to me either!). Looking into it, this means that the ink is transferred to the paper all in one go, meaning the speed of printing is greatly increased. This is a network/workgroup colour printer, using solid ink rather than the usual wet ink that inkjet printers throw at the paper. Basically it melts a coloured wax-based substance onto the paper (who knows, it may have come from Jason Donovan?s Madame Tussaud?s waxwork, seeing as it isn?t wanted any more). As I have found out from a quick browse of the Xerox homepage, this printer is capable of handling 65000 pages each month, so can easily...

Miami Ink!

Advantages: Interesting to watch, loads of cool tattoos to look at
Disadvantages: Often I find myself wanting a tattoo done by Chris Garver but unfortunately I don't live in Americ

...Miami Ink, if you haven't heard about it already, is a TV show about a tattoo parlour in Miami (if you hadn't already guessed!). The series began in July 2005, introducing four eager tattooists, Ami James, Chris Nunez, Chris Garver and Darren Brass, as well as Ami's apprentice, Yoji Harada. Throughout the episodes new tattooists enter and go, the most famous probably being Kat Von D who turned the studio around with her beautiful portrait tattoos. Each show lasts about an hour long, and during that time we see a variety of clients enter the studio to get their tattoos. The guys who run/work in the studio are all fairly young, heavily tattooed and have been through different walks of life. Most of them have spent their lives tattooing, so working in the shop you can tell means a lot to them. Each artist has a different personality...

Quality Colour Printing for the Office

Advantages: Excellent Colour Graphics, Very Fast for Colour, Great LCD Display, Great for the Office
Disadvantages: Low Print Resolution, Copy Cost 20pence per sheet, Xerox InkSticks very expensive, Only holds 200sheets

...I have been using this printer at work for the last 6 months and it has its fair share of problems although usually it runs well most of the time, allow me go into more detail: ~~~History~~~ The Xerox Phaser 8200DP has been on sale since 2002 was soon superseded by the faster (24ppm compared to 16ppm), and more powerful 8400 series. This printer was a market leader due its new Xerox patented single-pass technology. Basically the ink is transferred to the paper all in one go, therefore increasing the speed of printing. This is a network/workgroup colour printer, using solid ink rather than the usual wet ink that inkjet printers use. It melts a coloured wax-based substance onto the paper. It takes 4 solid ink blocks Black, Cyan, Yellow and Magenta which only fit into certain holes in the printer so you can't get them mixed up...
