Printer Xerox - Phaser 5500 review

You can buy a mono laser equipment for little more than the cost of a toner cartridge these days, but if you want to share in a network that will need something much faster. You’ll also want a more robust printer capable of producing quality documents over and over again, with minimal downtime for maintenance. Plus networking and paper handling facilities beyond the single A4 tray usually occur within the desktop laser cheap. The new Xerox Phaser 5500 is only a printer, and then some of them.

The Xerox Phaser 5500 is an A3 monochrome laser capable of printing 50 pages per minute. Moreover, the speed does not allow that when the duplex is equipped optional (£ 324 + VAT) in 5500 also capable of printing double-sided documents at the rate of 50 parts per minute.

This speed is partly due to a very efficient engine laser Xerox, but a 500MHz RISC processor also has a role to play. The most prominent is the printer spitting allows the first page in just three seconds. OK, six if you’re in standby mode, but, nevertheless, quite impressive, especially compared with the average for a minute or so some desktop laser can take.

Equally impressive is the 1200 x 1200 dpi (dots per inch) resolution, and a toner cartridge (£ 76 + VAT) good for 30000 pages between changes. Plus you get a page of 300000 per month duty cycle, two 500 sheets of A3 paper trays and a 100-sheet multipurpose food (for envelopes, transparencies, etc.) as standard.

Even for the most demanding environments, two more trays can be screwed to A3, along with a 2000-sheet feeder A4 with a total capacity of more than 4000 pages. An endowment of energy supply is another option, though there is a 3500-sheet stacker and a paper finishing with a function of drilling and nail, if necessary.

On the other hand there is no network interface in the base model (only USB and parallel), but the Ethernet networking standard is in the rest of the range, starting with the Phaser 5500N to £ 2,089 + VAT. And that includes support for Windows, Apple and Unix / Linux networks, a supervisor of the web server for local management, in addition to e-mail alert, an analysis tool use and accounting work.

Overall this is a very impressive but it is not difficult to install and use a small laser desktop. Support for both PCL and PostScript includes print options and are easily selected through software driver. You can even add a hard drive and configuration walk-up printing Saved Form and other documents. The Phaser 5500 is very quiet too, and the print quality is difficult to fault.

The only true shutdown is the price, but then that must be put into context. Of course it costs much more than the average desktop laser, but compared to other printers in its class A3 is a snip. On the other hand, has the advantage over most rivals in terms of performance and price, comes with one year of support from Xerox and actually deliver a lot for money.
