Xerox's smallest printers ever deliver big business productivity

When workspace is at a premium and budgets are tight, small and mid-sized businesses can turn to Xerox's new ultra-compact printers and multifunction devices for high-quality, affordable documents.

About the size of the average toaster, the Xerox Phaser 3010/3040 offers print speeds of 20 to 24 pages per minute (ppm). The WorkCentre 3045 multifunction printer (MFP) copies, scans, faxes, e-mails and prints documents and produces output at 24 ppm. The products are among the smallest devices in the market and are powered by Hi-Q LED print engines - the same breakthrough technology found in some of Xerox's higher-end graphic arts devices.

“Businesses of all sizes are faced with doing more with less - and small companies are especially challenged by this trend,” says Ernest Leong, OPB product manager in the Xerox division at Bytes Document Solutions, the Xerox distributor in sub-Saharan Africa. “The Xerox Phaser 3010/3040 and WorkCentre 3045 MFP pack the productivity and functionality punch of high-end machines, at a fraction of the size.”

The Phaser 3010/3040 printer and WorkCentre 3045 MFP run on Xerox's EA toner, which uses up to 20% less power for fusing than conventional toner. And, with only one consumable item - the toner cartridge - users replace just what they need.

The Hi-Q LED print engine makes the products quieter and more energy-efficient than comparable products using laser technology.

Other key features include:

* Print resolution of up to 1200x2400 dpi, so text and graphics add impressive visual impact to every page;
* Standard WiFi networking for the WorkCentre 3045NI for convenient placement in any location in the office;
* Simple remote management on the WorkCentre 3045 monitors print-job progress, toner level, and provides quick access to online support.

Adding extra productivity to the office, the WorkCentre 6015 colour MFP is Xerox's first WiFi-enabled device. The desktop MFP combines print, copy, scan, fax and digital workflow capabilities. With its compact size and wireless feature, it can be placed anywhere in the office, maximising space and convenience.

The WorkCentre 6015 shares the same print functionality as the Xerox Phaser 6010 colour printer - with print speeds as fast as 12 ppm for colour and 15 ppm for black and white. It also features plug-and-play set-up and the ability to handle custom media and sizes, so a variety of office documents and sales materials can be easily produced.
