Section 2
Evaluating Color Multifunction Printers
OVERVIEW
While the benefits of adding color capabilities to your office are easy to see, evaluating color MFPs can be
more challenging. Based on years of experience and research into the real-world needs of color MFP users,
Xerox has identified some key issues for you to consider as you conduct your evaluations.
Productivity
Does the MFP pack the performance to support your business?
Versatility
Does the MFP deliver the flexibility you need to increase the capabilities of your office?
Installation
Does the MFP offer an installation process simple enough for nontechnical employees?
Ease of Use
Is the MFP easy to integrate into your work processes, and for employees to learn?
Management
Does the MFP deliver tools to ease management and administration?
This section of the Evaluator Guide will examine each of these areas and suggest ways you can evaluate
color MFPs against these critical factors. Do this for all the color MFPs you consider, and you’ll see how
the Phaser 6180MFP exceeds expectations on all counts.
PHA SE R 6 180MF P EVALU AT O R G UIDE

EVALUATE PRODUCTIVITY
In addition to actual print engine speed, consider attributes that affect overall throughput. Are the scanning
and faxing features powerful enough to support your busy departments? Does the MFP include other
capabilities to increase the productivity of your employees, like an ADF for processing originals or
expandable paper capacity? Does the MFP come ready to connect to your network? Is the device
appropriately sized for the entire workgroup? Does the MFP deliver the image quality you require to
handle your business output and produce projects in-house? Can you monitor the device functions from
your desktop and/or at the device?
HOW THE PHASER 6180MFP EXCEEDS THE PRODUCTIVITY REQUIREMENT
PRODUCTIVITY
The productivity of the Phaser 6180MFP starts with output speeds set to handle the daily workloads
of small offices and workgroups. Print speeds of up to 31 ppm for black-and-white and 20 ppm for
color offer plenty of performance for day-to-day office printing and occasional color usage. Similarly,
the Phaser 6180MFP is built to handle your black-and-white copying needs, with the ability to deliver
convenient color copies, with speeds of up to 20 ppm for black-and-white and 7 ppm for color.
It’s also important to evaluate productivity beyond simple output speeds. Will the MFP you consider
support your workload by minimizing your interventions and making quick work of your jobs? The
Phaser 6180MFP helps minimize interruptions with a standard paper capacity of up to 400 sheets and
a maximum capacity up to 950 sheets for higher-volume environments. The 50-sheet ADF quickly
processes your multipage copy, scan and fax jobs, and print jobs are quickly completed with a firstpage-out time (FPOT) as fast as 10 seconds.
NETWORK PERFORMANCE
Performance isn’t limited to raw document feeds and speeds. The Phaser 6180MFP utilizes a
400 MHz processor with 384 MB of standard memory (1,408 MB maximum memory) — it’s ready
and able to process your complex print, copy and scan jobs. In addition, 10/100Base-TX Ethernet
connectivity comes standard for shared network printing, and the optional multiprotocol network
card adds support for a host of protocols like DDNS, IPP, Wins, SSL/HTPPS and IPv6.
IMAGE QUALITY
The Phaser 6180MFP utilizes many attributes to deliver the crisp image quality and vibrant colors
that give your business documents a professional appearance:
• Print Resolution — 600 x 600 x 4 dpi resolution means the Phaser 6180MFP can provide up
to 16 shades of color per pixel for vivid colors and smooth shadows and transitions.
• Emulsion Aggregate High Grade (EA-HG) Toner — provides excellent image quality by using
smaller, more uniformly shaped toner particles to bring more detail and clarity to images.
• PANTONE® — PANTONE approval assures customers that color will be printed accurately.
• Page Description Languages — True Adobe PostScript 3 and PCL 6 emulation ensure your
documents will print reliably.
• Xerox Color Corrections — gives you total control of your printed output with profiles for
matching other output devices.
MONITORING SYSTEM STATUS
With the Phaser 6180MFP, up-to-date information on your jobs and the device itself are available
whether you are at your computer or at the front panel. View job history, current device status, and
remaining consumable life at any time and maximize your uptime with the Phaser 6180MFP.

EVALUATE VERSITILITY
MFPs are inherently versatile, but not all MFPs are equally capable. Each of the four capabilities must be
present and accounted for, and must be able to support your workload. Your MFP needs to be a full-featured
workgroup printer, while offering uncompromised copy, scan and fax capabilities. You should also consider
your jobs, and evaluate whether the MFP offers the media support you require.
HOW THE PHASER 6180MFP EXCEEDS THE VERSATILITY REQUIREMENT
PRINT FEATURES
At its heart, the Phaser 6180MFP is a small-office/workgroup-class color printer built to handle
