HOW THE WORKCENTRE
EVALUATE EASE OF USE AND MANAGEMENT
Look for fully integrated functions that combine 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 you full access to the power of your network? Does the device include
additional software to take full advantage of your digital documents? Is the device easy for your
IT organization to manage as part of its infrastructure?
CONSISTENT USER INTERFACE
The large, backlit touch-screen front panel interface is easy to see and use, and is consistent with the user
interface on other Xerox MFPs. The front panel defaults to the copy user interface – the most commonly
used feature for people who walk up to the MFP. To access any of the other capabilities, simply touch the
"All Services" button and the front panel will display icons for each of the WorkCentre 4150 walk-up
functions – copy, ID card copy, fax, email, and network scanning (for systems equipped with all optional
features). Hard buttons to the left of the front panel ease the navigation of the WorkCentre 4150 capabilities
– "services" for the document features of the MFP, "job status" for viewing and managing the job queue,
and "machine status" for managing and administering the system.
Xerox MFP user interfaces are designed to simplify the process of programming the most common jobs.
For example, the "basic copying" tab minimizes the steps required by a user to program common options
like two-sided printing or jobs requiring stapling. Common features are included on the primary tab, keeping
the user from having to navigate multiple screens to program most jobs. Programming a common job is made
easier – making five two-sided copies of a five page single-sided original, for example, can take half as many
steps with a Xerox MFP than with another manufacturer's product.
BI-DIRECTIONAL DRIVERS
WorkCentre 4150 MFP include CentreWare
easy, intuitive way to interact with the printer. The driver provides desktop access to all of the WorkCentre 4150
output functions. The driver also provides
bi-directional information indicating device status,
currently loaded paper sizes and types, and installed
options – there is no need to consult separate
software in order to obtain this information.
