GENERAL APPRAISAL
Pricing Analysis
BLI's suggested retail pricing analysis showed that the Muratec F-560 is priced competitively with
similar models (high-volume, laser and LED units with a 33.6-Kbps modem in the 15- to 25-ppm speed
range). Supplies cost per page could not be calculated because pricing is set by dealers.
Summary
Because of its outstanding overall performance, including excellent ease of use, exceptional multi-
tasking, good print output quality and impressive reliability, BLI highly recommends the Muratec
F-560 for users in need of a multifunctional device with fax, copy, print and scan capabilities for
monthly volumes of up to 10,000 impressions.
