Features
Excellent value
The Phaser 6140 delivers more value
with a faster print engine and processor, more memory, true Adobe®
PostScript® 3™ support, and optional
duplex unit.
Superior print quality
True Adobe PostScript 3 and
Pantone® Color approved solid-color
simulations give users the brightest,
truest colors and graphics possible.
Faster driver installation
Users will be up and printing in less
than a minute when installing the
Phaser 6140 printer driver.
Flexible media handling
The Phaser 6140 offers more paper
capacity and supports a much broader
range of media types and sizes from
all trays. Plus, it offers a duplex unit
for automatic two-sided printing.
By contrast, the Brother HL-3070cw
only supports envelopes, customsizes and semi-heavy media from the
single-sheet manual feed tray. And,
without automatic two-sided printing capability, users must manually
perform this task.
Better sustainability
The Phaser 6140 reduces paper
waste by ignoring blank pages in a
print job and automatically printing on two sides of a page.** Plus,
earth-friendly consumable packaging
and smaller toner cartridges limit its
carbon footprint (see back page).
Superior warranty
In the event that the Phaser 6140
printer needs a service call, Xerox will
send a technician on-site with parts
to get the printer up and running. By
contrast, Brother users must repack
their 41.9 lb. printer for shipment to
an authorized reseller for exchange.

** Requires optional duplex unit.

Advantages
Sustainable, earth-friendly toner and packaging
The Phaser 6140 printer’s toner cartridge is extremely small and includes more toner (2,600 print capacity black, 2,000 CMY) than the
Brother HL-3070cw printer (2,200 print capacity black, 1,400 CMY). This reduces the need for bulky packaging materials, costs less to ship
and conserves precious storage space.

Exceptional print quality
The following enlargements clearly show that the Phaser 6140 printer produces superior text quality, edge registration and detail than the
Brother HL-3070cw printer.
The benefit of choosing Xerox over Brother is evident in the images shown below.

Better detail
No loss of information – the Phaser 6140 printer’s
output is much more precise and legible than the
Brother device.
Better fills and accuracy
No loss of information and smooth fills – notice how
smooth the green fill is from the Phaser 6140, as well
as the symmetry and accuracy of fine lines, whereas
the Brother HL-3070cw printer’s output is inconsistent
and mottled.
