The rate at which Xerox releases new copiers is sometimes astonishing. Based on the existing WorkCentre 7300 series and introduced earlier this year, the Xerox WorkCentre 7346 adds more color speed, a higher duty cycle and more memory.

The 7346 offers standard copying and printing, along with optional scanning and faxing. It also features an optional EFI Fiery 8e print server for high-end color work.

The WorkCentre 7346 ($18,995) copies and prints at 45ppm in black, 40ppm in color. It features Xerox’s Extensible Interface Platform (EIP), which provides a programming interface for software developers. They also use Emulsion Aggregation (EA) toner.

The optional scanning feature supports a wide variety of scan-to types, including email, FTP, SMB (scanning to disk) and text-searchable PDF and XPS formats. Xerox supplies tools for scan compression and for building jobs for output. A deluxe version of scan-to-PC functionality supports advanced document management and OCR capabilities.

Xerox keeps up with some tough competition by releasing ever newer machines with improved features and competitive prices. The WorkCentre 7346 has strong copying and printing features along with good finishing and a duplex document feeder.
