Section 1: Introducing the Phaser 3600 Laser Printer
Product Overview
The Phaser 3600 laser printer combines surprisingly high-end performance features with consistent day-in-day-out reliability — all in
a compact device that’s built to keep your productivity high and your costs low.
The power to please
The Phaser 3600 laser printer brings Xerox quality and superior performance to single
users and small workgroups that demand superior productivity.
Fast printing performance delivers results at up to 40 ppm — plenty of speed to keep
•
up with your big print load.
A first-page-out time as fast as 9 seconds means you spend less time waiting for print
•
jobs and more time staying productive.
Complex print jobs, handled with ease. A robust 400 MHz processor works behind the
•
scenes to quickly take care of whatever comes its way — even multipage jobs loaded
with graphics.
Network printing (standard on the N and DN configurations) makes the Phaser 3600
•
laser printer a more powerful office ally, helping more users get more work done.
Get even more helpful capabilities, like Secure Print (standard on network configura-
•
tions), which keeps a private print job in the queue until released by the job owner, and
RAM collation, which speeds up larger print jobs by quickly processing multiple sets of
multipage documents.
Unbeatable value
With advanced features typically found on higher-priced laser printers, the Phaser 3600
offers more performance for less.
More speed, better features and a robust, user-friendly design — no other printer in its
•
class matches the Phaser 3600 laser printer’s total-value offering.
Print more without interruption with two standard paper trays holding a total of 600
•
sheets. Need more capacity? An additional 500-sheet tray is available.
Affordability comes standard, with a low cost per page and helpful, cost-saving features
•
like toner-save and energy-save modes, plus available automatic two-sided printing and
N-Up printing for more efficient paper usage.
The print cartridge is easy to replace, and lets you choose standard-capacity at a lower
•
price, or high-capacity, for greater print volumes and reduced total cost of ownership.
We stand behind our promise of outstanding reliability and performance with a
•
standard one-year warranty. Plus, the Xerox Total Satisfaction Guarantee provides
free replacement of your Xerox device if for any reason you are not satisfied with its
performance.

The capacity to do more
The Phaser 3600 laser printer offers more printing features for fast-paced businesses,
while additional options further expand the printer’s capabilities.
Automatic two-sided printing is standard on the Phaser 3600DN, and available as an
•
option on the Phaser 3600B and 3600N models.
Helpful administration tools, like CentreWare IS internal web server, make it fast and
•
easy to manage everyday usage.
With a simple layout and easy-to-read two-line display, the front panel user interface
•
shows printer-status information, error messages and jobs in progress.
The 100-sheet multipurpose tray handles a variety of paper, from 16 – 43 lb. bond to
•
60 lb. cover (60 –163 gsm), including envelopes, labels, business cards and other specialty media.
Standard 600-sheet paper capacity can be expanded to 1,100 sheets for extended
•
periods of uninterrupted printing.
