Evaluate Installation And Deployment - Xerox WorkCentre 7346 Evaluator Manual

EVALUATE PRODUCTIVITY (CONTINUED)
CONCURRENCY
The WorkCentre 7346 network controller 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, your
employees can stay productive and avoid idle time waiting for the multifunction system. 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 queue and be executed when earlier jobs are
completed.
MONITORING SYSTEM STATUS
With the WorkCentre 7346, up-to-date information on every job you process – print, copy, scan,
email or fax, plus in-depth device information – is always at your fingertips. Whether at the device or
from your desktop, you can manage documents and jobs through an integrated job queue with a few
mouse-clicks or button pushes.

EVALUATE INSTALLATION AND DEPLOYMENT

Installing and deploying a fleet of copier/printers and multifunction systems throughout your organisation
is a potentially time-consuming, complicated process. This is not limited to physically placing the units in
your environment; it is really about how these systems will integrate into your existing network infrastructure.
You also need to consider the process required to deploy printing and scanning services to your users,
and how automated that process can be.
HOW THE WORKCENTRE 7346 EXCEEDS THE INSTALLATION AND DEPLOYMENT REQUIREMENTS:
INSTALLATION
When you choose Xerox, you can rest assured that your equipment will be delivered and installed to
your specifications and expectations. All network-enabled configurations include a 10/100Base-TX
Ethernet connection with features including automatic IP addressing, device naming, and Ethernet
speed sensing to provide simple and automatic network installation. Management and system setup
can be accomplished through a variety of means, including easy, wizard-based processes found
within Xerox CentreWare
networks with identical settings, eliminating the need to set up each system individually.
DEPLOYMENT
Another critical area to evaluate is how to deploy print and scan drivers to your employees' computers.
Print and scan drivers can be deployed centrally, so your IT staff needn't perform desk-to-desk
manual installation of the driver software. Again, CentreWare Web wizards are provided to aid in
the process of installing, troubleshooting and upgrading print and scan drivers for your employees,
freeing up your IT staff for more pressing projects. Driver support is delivered for Windows (Server
2003 / XP / Vista), including most operating systems with 32- and 64-bit drivers, Macintosh OS
(10.3 and above), and multiple UNIX and Linux platforms.
