Section 1: Evaluating Workgroup
Color Multifunction Printers
Productivity
In addition to actual print engine speed, consider the factors that affect overall
throughput.
Does the device produce color print quality that exceeds expectations?
Can important features be used simultaneously, or are employees forced to wait for the
MFP to become free? Is the system designed to minimize network traffic?
Can MFP functions be monitored from users' desktops and/or at the device?
How the ColorQube™
9201/9202/9203 exceeds
the productivity requirement:
Speed
The productivity of the ColorQube
9201/9202/9203 multifunction printer
starts with default Enhanced mode
copy and print speeds of up to 50 ppm
black-and-white and 38/45/50 ppm
color depending on model. Extra print
productivity can be achieved for internal
use or short life documents in Fast Color
mode with the ability to print up to
85 ppm black-and-white and 60/70/85
ppm color depending on model. Your
choice of fast output speeds ensures
the right fit for a wide array of office
environments and workgroups. Plus, with
first-page-out-times ranging from as fast
as 7.2 seconds, users won't have to wait
long for their jobs to get started, either.

Image quality
Xerox-exclusive Solid Ink produces
outstanding color print quality, with
natural vibrancy, glossiness and
consistency on virtually any media,
including recycled paper. The ColorQube
9201/9202/9203 multifunction printer
delivers 2400 Finepoint resolution in High
Resolution/Photo mode for exceptionally
detailed text and images.
To ensure that printed output meets users'
high expectations, Xerox also delivers
multiple Page Description Languages
(PDLs) including Adobe
PostScript

and PCL
5c and PCL
6 emulation.

Network performance
Performance isn't limited to raw
document feeds and speeds. Every
ColorQube 9201/9202/9203 multifunction
printer easily handles large, complex print
and scan jobs thanks to the device's high-
performance 1 GHz processor and 80 GB
hard drive.
The ColorQube 9201/9202/9203 devices
are easy on your network as well. With
RAM collation, files are sent over the
network just once no matter how many
sets are printed. Job pipelining allows
the MFP 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.
Concurrency
The ColorQube 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 MFP. 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
3™
®
queue and be executed when earlier jobs
are completed.
Monitoring system status
With the ColorQube 9201/9202/9203
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 fingertips. 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.
