Section 1: Evaluating Workgroup Multifunction Printers
Evaluate Productivity
In addition to actual print engine speed, consider the factors that affect overall throughput. Are the device’s scanning and faxing features powerful enough
to support the demands of your busiest departments? Is the device appropriately sized for the entire workgroup? Can important features be used simultaneously, or are employees forced to wait for the device to become “free”? Is the system designed to minimize network traffi c? Can device functions be monitored from users’ desktops and/or at the device?
How the WorkCentre 5700 Series exceeds the productivity requirement:
Speed
The productivity of the WorkCentre 5700 Series starts with seven output-engine-speed options, which deliver output speeds from up to 35 ppm black-and-white to up to 90 ppm black­and-white — ensuring the right fi t for a wide array of offi ce environments and workgroups. Document handling speed is notable as well, with a 100-sheet DADH (75-sheet DADH on WorkCentre 5735) that scans single-sided documents at 60 or 80 ipm. With FPOTs ranging from as fast as 2.7 seconds to 4.7 seconds, users won’t have to wait long for their jobs to get started, either.
Network performance
Performance isn’t limited to raw document feeds and speeds. All network-enabled WorkCentre 5700 Series devices feature a new 1.2 GHz high-performance processor plus an 160 GB hard drive. It’s ready and able to process your large, complex print and scan jobs. In addition, 10/100/1000Base-TX Ethernet connectivity comes standard for shared net­work printing, and optional adapters for IEEE
802.5 (Token Ring) and 10Base5, 802.11a/b/g wireless Ethernet ensure you can connect WorkCentre 5700 Series devices according to your company’s specifi c needs.
The WorkCentre 5700 Series devices are easy on your network as well. With RAM collation, fi les are sent over the network just once no matter how many sets are printed. Job pipelin­ing allows the device to process print jobs even if the print engine is busy with an earlier print job — thus optimizing system performance by avoiding delays during job processing.
Image quality
With up to 4800 x 600 dpi interpolated copy resolution and up to 1200 x 1200 dpi print resolution, the WorkCentre 5700 Series devices generate high-quality copies and prints with crisp text and images. To ensure that printed output meets users’ high expectations, Xerox also supports multiple Page Description Languages (PDLs) including PostScript emulation, XPS, PCL and HP-GL2.
Concurrency
The new WorkCentre controller’s advanced design also helps avoid bottlenecks at the front panel. Concurrent operation means you won’t have to wait until a long print job is complete to program a fax, scan or copy job. By keeping the front panel available for programming while the print engine is busy, users stay productive and avoid idle time waiting for the device. Scan and fax jobs can be programmed and executed without waiting for the print engine to become available, while newly programmed copy jobs will join the job queue and be executed when earlier jobs are completed.

Monitoring system status
With the WorkCentre 5700 Series devices, up-to-date information on every job — print, copy, scan, email or fax, plus in-depth device information — is always at a user’s fi ngertips. Whether at the device or from the desktop, users can manage documents and jobs through an integrated job queue with a few mouse-clicks or button pushes.

Section 1: Evaluating Workgroup Multifunction Printers
Evaluate Installation and Deployment
Installing and deploying a fleet of multifunction printers throughout your organization is a potentially time-consuming, complicated process. The process
isn’t limited to physically placing the units in their new environments, but also includes integrating the devices with the existing network infrastructure. Also consider the process required to deploy printing and scanning services to your users, and how automated that process can be.
How the WorkCentre 5700 Series exceeds the installation and deployment requirements:
Installation
When you choose Xerox that your equipment will be delivered and installed to your specifications and expecta­tions. Network-enabled configurations include a 10/100/1000Base-TX Ethernet connection with features including automatic IP addressing, device naming, and Ethernet speed sensing to provide simple and automatic network instal­lation. Management and system setup can be accomplished through a variety of means, including easy wizard-based processes found within Xerox as cloning enable multiple-device installation onto networks with identical settings, eliminat­ing the need to set up each system individually.
Deployment
With the WorkCentre 5700 Series devices, print and scan drivers can be deployed centrally, thereby eliminating the need for IT staff to perform desk-to-desk manual installation of the driver software. 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.

Evaluate Ease of Use and Management
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 users full access to the power of your network? Does the device include additional software to take full advantage of digital documents? Is the device easy for your IT organization to manage as part of its infrastructure?
How the WorkCentre 5700 Series exceeds the ease of use requirement:
Front panel user interface
It doesn’t matter if a job is simple or complex — the new front panel user interface (UI) on WorkCentre 5700 Series devices is easy to learn and offers quick job programming. It features touch-screen functionality with bright icons and intuitive organization, with the most commonly accessed features on the home screen and easy access to advanced programming features. A selection of buttons accompanies the touch­panel UI for manual command and numbers inputs, management features access, and job execution (with the familiar green Start button). Third-party applications can be integrated with the front panel UI as well. Regardless of whether you’ve used a Xerox the past, you will find WorkCentre 5700 Series devices a pleasure to use.
On-board documentation
The front panel user interface on the WorkCentre 5700 Series pulls from the on-board user docu­mentation to deliver a wealth of helpful informa­tion — such as how to send a scan via email.
Bidirectional print drivers
The WorkCentre 5700 Series utilizes CentreWare print drivers to provide an easy, intuitive method of programming jobs and receiving updated system status information. Like the front-panel touch-screen UI, the print drivers are intuitively organized by tabs. The most commonly used features are located on the default tab, with advanced features easily accessible when pro­gramming more complex jobs. The print drivers also provide bidirectional information like system
