More Xerox technology offers more choices, more color

Dubai, UAE - 03 December 2007: - Xerox MEA is creating a wave of color for the office with new multifunction products. Building on the industry's broadest product portfolio that offers customers wide choices for their document needs, today Xerox launched the Phaser 6180MFP color multifunction printer and the WorkCentre® 7232 and WorkCentre 7242 color multifunction printers. 

"Xerox continues to bring businesses around the world leading-class technology that increases productivity," said Natesh Mani, Director, Office Business, Xerox MEA. "These new Phaser and WorkCentre printers are robust enough to keep up with the regions office demands, and they offer businesses the power to print in color when needed - delivering higher impact documents. That means more productivity for our customers."

Xerox's new WorkCentre 7232/7242 offer print speeds as fast as 10 ppm in color, and 32 and 42 ppm in black and white, respectively. These are entry-level, color-capable multifunction products designed for small to mid-sized workgroups that rely on black-and-white printing but need color for some business applications. The systems offer two-sided copying and printing and a full range of color controls, such as Xerox Standard Accounting, which lets offices track use and set limits for their employees.

The WorkCentre 7200 series is enabled with Xerox's Extensible Interface Platform (EIP), a Web-based platform that lets customers and developers quickly and easily create customized workflow applications. The line builds on the success of the WorkCentre 7132 for "color cautious" customers who print primarily in black-and-white but need the option of printing quality color. The Xerox Phaser 6180MFP, which prints at speeds as fast as 20 pages per minute in color and 31 ppm in black and white features a 400MHz processor, 384MB of memory and a 950-sheet paper input capacity. With Xerox's environmentally friendly Emulsion Aggregation High Gloss Toner, true Adobe PostScript3 and Pantone color, the Phaser 6180MFP produces high-quality prints in 600x600x4 dpi color output. The unit is easy to set-up and use with PrintingScout™, software that automatically sends users messages at their computers about the status of print jobs. It also includes CentreWare® Web printer management software, which allows IT administrators or office workers to remotely clone, configure and manage a fleet of systems. The multifunction printer also includes ID Card Copy, making it simple to copy both sides of a document, like an insurance card, onto a single sheet of paper.
