This new printer from Xerox contains some impressive green features.
Xerox’s new small-workgroup color laser printer
The $399 Phaser 6140 is a network-ready, small-workgroup printer that prints 19ppm in color and 21ppm in black-and-white. The 6140 offers surprisingly strong features in spite of its low price.
Ethernet, PCL, and PostScript are standard features with optional Wi-Fi. The maximum paper capacity is 500 sheets. The exit tray holds 150 sheets.
Consumables costs run at around 3.5¢ per page for black-and-white and 17.0¢ for color. These are high, but not far outside the average at this price and speed point.
Xerox rates the maximum monthly duty cycle as 40,000 pages, with a more realistic recommended monthly volume of 2,500 pages. Xerox touts its green development with lower packaging waste, recyclable cartridges, low-waste toner, and lower energy use. One neat feature is the ability to notice and skip blank pages, saving on both output time and paper use.
