SECTION 1
Product Overview
There are two product sub-brands available in three speed bands:
COPYCENTRE C2128/C2636/C3545
CopyCentre C2128, C2636, and C3545 are fast, productive, easy to use, low cost,
digital color copiers with the essential features needed to produce a wide variety of professionally finished documents. Reliability is built-in and small size means they can be

black-and-white, to fax-to-email, or scan-to-internet fax. These models offer full digital
copier functionality, powerful network printing capabilities, a wide array of network
device management tools and robust security features that can be customized for specific needs. Extensive hardcopy to electronic document distribution capabilities enable
paper and digital documents to converge in an efficient, seamless flow of information.
In addition, a wide range of integrated solutions provided by Xerox Business Partners
extends the value of WorkCentre Pro products even further.

SECTION 2
Evaluating Multifunction devices
EVALUATION CRITERIA
As the company that invented laser printing, Ethernet networking, and the first digital Multi–
Function Product (MFP), Xerox has invested years of research and development in designing
the most productive office devices in the industry. This experience has positioned Xerox as the
recognized leader in office MFP design and performance. Based on our in-depth understanding
of customer needs in the office, Xerox recommends the following criteria be considered in the
evaluation process of a shared MFP:
• Productivity – can it keep up with the demands of a multiple user environment?
• Ease of Use – are all the capabilities integrated and intuitive?
• Reliability – is it designed and build for demanding use and backed by a quality organization?
• Versatility – can the MFP grow with changing demands?
• Finishing – can the MFP provide the distribution ready documents that you require?
MFPs often look the same from the outside. And from a quick look at specifications on speeds,
feeds, and print resolution, you might incorrectly conclude that most MFPs are basically equal.
This section of the Evaluator Guide will suggest ways you can thoroughly evaluate them, and
show how the Xerox CopyCentre C2128/C2636/C3545 and WorkCentre Pro C2128/C2636/C3545
models can best meet your needs.
In addition to actual print engine speed consider the things that effect overall throughput. Are the scanning and faxing features
powerful enough for your busy workgroup? What is the warm-up wait time? Is
the device sized for the
entire workgroup? Can features be used at the same time or are users forced to wait
for the device to be “free”? Can you monitor the device functions from your desktop and at the device?
With up to 35 ppm color and 45 ppm black and white output speed, a 32 ppm scan speed,
concurrent scanning and printing, and a warm-up time of 60 seconds or less, documents can
be produced quickly with less time spent at the device. Automatic features like auto image
quality, auto registration, auto rotation, auto paper select, auto tray switching and auto job
recovery ensure crisp and clear images and the fastest, best-in class quality output every time.
A powerful 733MHz processor accelerates document traffic and maximizes network resources.
Files are sent over the network just once no matter how many sets are being printed. Files are
processed at the device, off the network, freeing up user’s workstations and minimizing network
traffic. Plus, with concurrent scan and print capability, someone can be scanning in one document,
while a second document is printing and a third is being received over the network. This results
in network printing performance that is unmatched in the industry.
There are no unknowns. Up-to-date information on every job; print, copy, scan, email, or fax, plus
in-depth device information at your fingertips. Either at the device or from your desktop you can
manage documents and jobs through an integrated job queue, display job progress and status, and
manage jobs all with a few mouse clicks or button pushes.

Look for fully integrated functions that work together to create more value than the sum of their parts.
Are the functions easy to learn? Is the user interface consistent from function to function? Do the network features give you full access to the power of your network? Does the device include additional
software
to take full advantage of your digital documents?
It doesn’t matter if the job is simple or complex – a large, intuitive graphical interface and
integrated control panel guide users through every task, making even the most complex copy
jobs easier than ever.
Walk-up users have an intuitive and simple to use touch screen interface. The most commonly used features
are accessed directly from the main screen. And the “Help Button” on the control panel is always available to
assist the walk-up user.
With advanced features like Covers, Transparency Interleave and
N-Up, you have a variety of output options. And, with Build Job
you can easily integrate documents from the document handler and
the platen or from different paper trays – even mix simplex and
duplex output into a single job. Use “sample last segment” to
review or change the output of your job section by section. There’s
no need to rescan the entire job if you make an error. Use “sample
set” to run a proof set of the entire job to be sure the output exactly
matches your requirements before it’s printed.
WorkCentre Pro C2128/C2636/C3545 includes CentreWare
®
print
drivers with a clear, graphical user interface that provides an easy,
intuitive way to interact with the printer. The drivers provide immediate desktop access to all WorkCentre Pro output functions.
Advanced functions such as watermarks, invert image, print-toedge, N-Up, booklet layout, transparency interleaving, covers and
toner saver are simple to access.
The top tab provides icons for the most commonly
used functions such as selecting paper and document finishing. Plus with the “saved settings” feature, frequently used print job parameters can be
stored for later reuse.
