Xerox Phaser 6110mfp Color Laser Printer Review

The Xerox Phaser 6110MFP is a color laser printer that offers a wide range of options and facilities in one small machine. While this printer is not small by any stretch of the imagination, it is roughly the same size as most all in one printers, so you should have no problem finding the perfect spot in your office.At the top of the Xerox Phaser, you will find a small tray that automatically feeds in papers to print, which will allow you to work elsewhere in your office. However, depending on the size of your printing jobs, you may have to frequently check back with the auto feeder, as it only holds 50 sheets of paper. Under the auto feeder, you will find a lid that covers the scanner.If you want to control most of the Xerox Phaser 6110MFP color laser printers options away from your computer, you will find that it has 30 buttons that will allow you to do just that. Some of these dial functions include: fax controls, LCD display screen, control panel, and keys for the scan, copy and a fax number pad that will let you input fax or telephone numbers.In this multifunction laser printer, you will be able to do direct printing. Connect a USB drive and begin printing specific files, letters and images without the use of your computer. Compatible image formats include JPEG, PDF, BMP, and TIFF. You can also save files from your printer to a USB drive by scanning and saving your documents to print or upload at a later time.The Xerox Phaser 6110MFP color laser printer has enough power and features that makes it the perfect choice for small to medium office printing jobs. However, this can be difficult due to the small paper tray that will only hold 150 sheets of paper. This small size means that home business owners are more likely to buy this printer than a small business.You can upgrade the paper tray, but this upgrade can only hold up to 400 sheets. While this may seem like a large capacity, it will not cover the amount of printing jobs that occur on a daily basis in most businesses large or small.A multifunction printer such this Xerox Phaser usually has so many options that you will want to have a good manual to answer all of your questions. Xerox does not disappoint, and with the driver you will instruction manuals that cover topics such as overlays, watermarks and manual duplex printing.While the Xerox Phaser 6110MFP color laser printer has a lot to offer, you may be disappointed with its printing speeds. Printing regular text and all black pages is not a problem and you can usually get approximately 8 pages per minute, but the color printing is where this all in one piece of machinery seems to fall apart.The black printing is slow enough, but when you move on to colored pages, you will find that it is difficult for the Xerox Phaser to hit more than 3 pages per minute in its printing process. Officially, Xerox reports that this printer will allow you to print black pages at 16 pages per minute and colors at 4 pages per minute, and all of these speeds are incredibly slow compared to printers from competing companies.Another problem with the Xerox Phaser 6110MFP color laser printer is the inability to get crisp clear printouts that you are seeking. Colored pictures, fonts and graphics seem ok at first but on closer inspection, you will notice that it lacks complete clarity. Print outs done in black will reveal a similar problem and all of this trouble points to an overuse of toner. While some printers will output colors so low that black ink looks grey, the Xerox Phaser 6110MFP color laser printer puts too much color onto the pages and this can cause some print jobs to be fuzzy and smudged. Depending on what you print, you may receive varied results. Some printouts may look perfect and others will need to go in the trash.
