Section 1: Evaluating Tabloid/A3 Color Printers

Overview

A workgroup printer is a resource typically shared by up to 25 networked
users on a regular basis. Because it is common for a network to include multiple

computer platforms, such as any of the various versions of Microsoft Windows,
Mac OS, Unix or Linux, and because a network printer is relied upon by multiple users,
we recommended that the following criteria be used when evaluating which printer
to purchase for your office:

Productivity

Can the printer keep up with your daily
and monthly print volumes?

Print Quality

Does the printer produce consistently high­quality output for your workgroup’s office
document demands?

Deployment, Management
and Ease of Use

Is the printer simple for your IT staff to
deploy and manage, and will it be easy
for your employees to use?

Support

Does the manufacturer provide the
resources you need to ensure maximum
uptime and optimal performance?

Sustainability

Does the printer meet the industry’s
recognized environmental sustainability
standards, and will it help your office
reduce consumable usage?

This section examines each of
the evaluation criteria in greater
detail, covering the specific
features and performance
attributes you should look for
in a high-volume color printer.

When the same criteria are used
to evaluate every device under
consideration, you’ll see how
the Phaser® 7500 color printer
excels against other manufacturers’
products.

Productivity

Productivity is a critical consideration when evaluating department-class color
printers, such as the Phaser

required to support the workload of larger groups of users? Can it be expanded to meet
a workgroup’s evolving needs, and does it offer the media flexibility to support
a variety of jobs?

®

7500. Does the printer deliver the level of performance

How the Phaser 7500 exceeds
the productivity requirement

Printing performance

Whether printing single- or double-sided
documents, the Phaser 7500 printer

maintains its print speed of up to 35 ppm.

For average print jobs of three pages or
less, the most important specification is
first-page-out time, and the Phaser 7500
printer delivers in as few as 7 seconds.

Even the heaviest workloads are
handled with ease by the Phaser 7500

printer. The high-performance 1 GHz

PowerGUICC™ III processor can receive
a steady succession of simple and
complex print jobs, in either color or
black-and-white, while maintaining
optimal productivity.

Expandability

Numerous accessories are available to
help maximize the Phaser 7500 printer’s
productivity. For those users who print
a high volume of large, complex files,
controller memory can be expanded

to a maximum of 2 GB with 256 or
512 MB upgrades.

Plus, the optional Productivity Kit provides
additional security features and the ability
to store forms in the printer for easy
reprinting.

For workgroups of 10 or more users,

consider increasing paper capacity
by including up to three additional
500-sheet trays. The Phaser 7500 can

handle a total paper capacity of 2,100

sheets for optimum, uninterrupted
workgroup productivity.

Section 1: Evaluating Tabloid/A3 Color Printers

Print Quality

Many factors determine the quality of the print output delivered by a
color printer. Printhead technology and image resolution, color registration and

accuracy and intuitive, user-friendly color adjustments are all key components of
a printer’s ability to deliver the results you demand to bring your high-end color
print jobs in-house.

Precise Color Registration

The Phaser® 7500 digitally adjusts for
mis-registration. Notice the white edges on the
“G” and "M" produced by the laser device. The
Phaser 7500 automatically makes the neces­sary adjustments.

Color controls

Our Xerox-exclusive “Color by Words,”
a powerful-yet-intuitive color technology,
takes the guesswork out of optimizing

your color print jobs. With Color By Words*

there is no need to manipulate source
files. Users simply select the desired
color modifications from a drop-down
list—such as “pale green colors a lot
more green” or “red colors a lot
more saturated”—and the image is
automatically adjusted.

Color registration and accuracy

With an ASIC driver to control the light
intensity of the LEDs in each printhead,

HiQ LED offers better dot-to-dot intensity

and timing control, and produces more

precise color registration. HiQ LED handles

mis-registration issues automatically,
simultaneously and continuously, from

LED to LED. In fact, tests show that HiQ

LED technology corrects color
mis-registration even better than
comparable laser printers.

Also, with Pantone®-approved color
tables, the Phaser 7500 prints specified
colors consistently and accurately,
ensuring that the colors you expect are
the colors you get. Plus, true Adobe®
PostScript® 3™ gives you the power to
print visually rich documents reliably.

Plus, text is sharp and readable whether
printed in black on colored backgrounds
or in color on black backgrounds, thanks

to the Phaser 7500 printer’s Black

Trapping feature.

Printhead technology
and image resolution

The Phaser 7500 color printer features
the new Xerox HiQ LED printhead,
which offers major improvements in
image quality.

In the Phaser 7500 there are four
individual printheads. With each LED

array packing 1200 diodes per inch, the

printhead can create many more, and

*English only.

6 Xerox Phaser 7500 Color Printer Evaluator Guide

much finer, dots for exceptional resolution,
while also saving space in the system’s
overall design.

The “brain” behind the entire print-head
process is Xerox’s new application specific
integrated circuit (ASIC) driver chip. This
high-performance driver precisely controls

the intensity and timing of the 14,592

dots of light (LEDs) in each printhead to

achieve true 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution—

print quality that’s equivalent to, and
often better than, comparable laser

systems. By continually and automatically

monitoring information about each LED,
the ASIC driver can adjust each diode’s
light intensity and timing. This ensures
uniformity across the entire LED array—
and produces consistently high print
quality without compromising the printer’s
high-speed output. Whether printing
spreadsheets, presentations or customer
collaterals, the Phaser 7500 delivers truly
impressive results.

Deployment, Management and Ease of Use

Installing printers can be challenging, whether in a large organization or
small office. The process includes integrating the devices into your existing network

infrastructure and deploying print drivers to users’ computers. Evaluate whether the
driver installation process can be automated. Also, evaluate the management tools
delivered with the printer, and whether they will ease the task of managing the device.
Lastly, think about ease of use. Is the device simple to operate, and will users quickly
feel comfortable using it? Are the user interfaces, both the front panel and print driver,
well designed and easy to navigate?

With CentreWare® IS, remote management of
the Phaser 750 0 is easily handled using any
web browser.

How the Phaser® 7500
printer exceeds the
deployment requirement:

Installation

The Phaser 7500 printer is designed to
be set up and installed by non-technical
users. Supplies come pre-loaded, and the
included quick install guide helps install
optional accessories, connect the printer
to your network and a power source,
and power-up the device. The printer will
automatically be assigned an IP address

and join the network via DHCP (other

networking protocols can be set at the
front panel). Device settings, such as
language selection and feature setup,
are completed either at the front panel or
via remote management software like

CentreWare Web or CentreWare Internet
Services (CentreWare IS). Simply enter the
Phaser 7500 printer's IP address into your
web browser to access CentreWare IS.

For IT administrators in Mac
environments, peace of mind comes
from knowing that Xerox printers and
MFPs are the devices of choice for more
Mac users than any other brand of
office equipment. The Phaser 7500 is
no exception, providing full compatibility
with the latest Mac operating system,

OSX 10.6 (“Snow Leopard”).

Driver deployment

With the Phaser 7500 printer, print
drivers can be deployed centrally, thereby
eliminating the need for IT staff to
perform desk-to-desk manual installation
of the driver software.

8 Xerox Phaser 7500 Color Printer Evaluator Guide

CentreWare® Web wizards are provided
to aid in the processes of installing,
troubleshooting and upgrading print and
scan drivers for employees, freeing up
IT personnel for more pressing projects.
Driver support is delivered for Windows

(2000 / Server 2003 / XP / Vista), including
most operating systems with 32-and
64-bit drivers; Macintosh OS 10.3
and higher; and multiple UNIX and

Linux platforms.

Also, all Xerox drivers are

Windows Hardware Quality Labs
(WHQL) certied, ensuring compliance

with Microsoft standards and
seamless compatibility with
MS Windows environments.

Deployment of multiple units is
simple with the ability to “clone”
network configurations.

Plus, the Phaser® 7500 supports two
innovative new print drivers that can
greatly simplify installing, managing and
supporting printers and multifunction
devices on the network and increase
end-user productivity:

•

Xerox Mobile Express Driver
(X-MED) makes it easy for mobile users

to find, use and manage Xerox and non­Xerox devices in every new location.

•

Xerox Global Print Driver (X-GPD) is
a truly universal print driver that lets
IT administrators install, upgrade and
manage Xerox and non-Xerox devices
from a single driver.

In addition, these drivers provide users
with a consistent single interface for all
printers, with real-time, dynamic reports
of printer status. As a result, users can
easily identify the best printer for their
needs, quickly choose the correct options
and see updated consumables status
without the assistance of IT.
