Intuitive User Experience

Xerox® AltaLink® Multifunction Printers deliver the experience you’d expect from today’s

technology. With consistency between devices, customization and a tablet-like experience,

you’ll get work done faster and connect like never before.

• Consistent Operation Across Products.

A common look and feel across all our AltaLink

and VersaLink® Devices makes it easy and intuitive for users to go from one Xerox

Product to another without

additional training.

• Advanced Copy and Print Features.

AltaLink

Multifunction Printers greatly simplify everyday office tasks, providing plenty of support for specialized print applications including Annotation, Bates Stamping and ID Card Copy. Print directly from popular cloud repositories like Dropbox™, OneDrive and Google Drive

• Personalization. Personalize the user

interface for each individual user to maximize productivity. Hide, reveal and reorder apps and app features to prioritize the capabilities you use most. Save your settings and return to your own familiar interface each time you log in.

• 1-Touch App. Automate tedious tasks to

save time and reduce errors with 1-Touch shortcuts, or simply allow AltaLink’s Adaptive Learning to automate repetitive and complex tasks

. Workflows can be customized for personal or group use. Once created, they will appear on the home screen and function like native device apps and features.

• Scan To App. Users can scan a single

job and choose multiple destinations such as email, USB, network and SMB share. This feature can also be used for scanning-based solutions, which expands their usability. Use the Scan To feature to scan documents directly into Dropbox™, Google

Drive

or OneDrive®1 and for even more convenience use single sign-on to eliminate multiple logins.

• Scan Preview. Review your scan jobs

right at the device with Scan Preview. This feature lets you view all pages at once or zoom in to assess individual pages.

• Fleet Orchestrator. With Fleet

Orchestrator, system administrators can easily deploy software upgrades, apply configuration clones and share files through secure peer-to-peer connections between a fleet of AltaLink

Printers.

• Single Touch Scanning. Use the

Single Touch Scanning feature to create a dedicated, easy-to-locate scan button directly on the color touchscreen interface. Assign the Single Touch Scan button its own scanning workflow for fast document distribution and archiving.

MOBILE DEVICE-LIKE TOUCHSCREEN SUPERIORITY.

Meet our 10-inch color touchscreen — the user interface that sets a new standard for personalization, ease of use and versatility. It’s similar to the experience you’re used to on your smartphone or tablet, so you can scroll and tap with confidence. And simple, app-based functionality lets you navigate even complex jobs with just a few gestures.

A highly intuitive layout guides you through each task from start to finish, with a natural hierarchy placing important functions and commonly used options at the front and center. If you don’t like where a function or app is located, you can change the layout to make it yours.

This unmatched hardware technology and software makes it easy to get work done on our AltaLink® Multifunction Printers.

Scan to cloud repositories can be added as an optional feature to the native Scan to App.

Intuitive User Experience

(CONTINUED)

• Smart Proximity Sensor. This built-in

sensor wakes your AltaLink

Multifunction Printer when a user approaches and puts it back to sleep once the user leaves. Meaning it’s always ready for action when you need it and conserves energy when you don’t.

• Application Defaults. Adjust settings

for specific applications, such as always printing Microsoft

PowerPoint® files

2-up and in black-and-white.

• User Permissions. With User

Permissions, you can restrict access to print features by user, group, time of day and application. To limit color printing, you simply select a rule that makes all Microsoft

Outlook® email s automatically print in black-and-white and in duplex mode.

• Feature Access Control. This feature

allows administrators to control costs by limiting features to certain users and makes it easier for those users to see only the services they use.

• LDAP Mapping. LDAP servers display

different results depending on how they implement mappings. You can complete simple email address searches with LDAP and Scan to Email jobs. Our full integration is the differentiator. Our LDAP Mapping integrates with the address book, User Permissions and Scan to Home. In addition, this feature automatically suggests contacts by searching the device address book and LDAP as characters are entered.

• Common Driver Platform. AltaLink

Multifunction Printers include common print drivers, which feature clear graphical user interfaces that provide for easy, intuitive interaction with the device. The drivers provide immediate desktop access to all Xerox

Device output functions, as well as bidirectional information, indicating device and job status, currently loaded paper sizes and types, and installed options, eliminating the need to consult with other software

for information. With easy-to-understand icons, access the most commonly used functions, such as paper selection and document finishing. With the Saved Settings feature, frequently used print job parameters can be stored for reuse.

• Embedded Web Server with Search.

Built with a responsive design architecture, this allows system administrators to remotely connect to their multifunction printer via any standard web browser to perform configuration settings, apply clone files to the fleet, install print drivers, monitor printer status, view the print job queue, manage settings and properties, search available functions and deploy troubleshooting and support using the Remote Control Panel tool — all without leaving their office.

• Rule Based Printing. With this feature,

you can apply rules to printing or other actions, such as setting up all Microsoft Outlook

emails to automatically print in

black-and-white and in duplex mode.

• Auto-Color Scanning (ACS). This

feature allows the device controller to check if the document is color or blackand-white, and then adjust accordingly.

• Unified Address Book. ConnectKey

Technology enables features like the enhanced address book with favorites, which lets you seamlessly import your existing contacts and roll them out to multiple ConnectKey

Technology-

enabled devices.

CUSTOMER REPLACEABLE UNITS.

We engineered our AltaLink® Multifunction Printers with a simplified design so you can stay up and running. Easily and quickly replace components, such as the high yield toner cartridge s, drums and waste toner bottles.
