New Oce Color Copier-MFP for Large Workgroups
August 31, 2009 by Melissa PardoPosted in: Product miniReviews
The Océ VarioLink 5522c runs at 55ppm in black and 45ppm in color, while the VarioLink 6522c runs at 50ppm in color and 65ppm in black.
Both models offer standard copying, printing, and scanning, along with optional faxing.
Paper handling is a strong point. The machines have standard dual 500-sheet paper trays, a 1,000-sheet paper tray, and a 1,500-sheet feeder. There’s also a 150-sheet bypass. You can add either a 2,500-sheet stacker or a 3,000-sheet stacker. That brings the maximum input to 6,650 sheets.
Duplexing is standard. A reversing 100-sheet document feeder is included.
On the output side, there is a simple 250-sheet exit tray. The optional finisher holds 3,100 sheets and features 100-sheet multiposition stapling. You can add a booklet maker unit with 20-page saddlestitching to the finisher.
Scanning to email, to folder, to USB flash drive, and to FTP are supported. Internet faxing is standard. Optional analog faxing includes a 33.6kbps modem and JBIG compression.
Security features include hard disk encryption, job encryption, watermarks, IP filtering, secure print, and secure fax.
An optional Fiery IC-412 controller from EFI is also available.
The VarioLink 5522c and 6522c are rated for a monthly duty cycle of 250,000 and 300,000 pages, respectively.
These are impressive models, offering speed and remarkable paper-handling capacities. In these market segments, these are very strong contenders.
