Xerox Phaser 8860 Color Printer

 

With its low-cost color ink, the Xerox Phaser 8860 Color Printer can print color pages for the same price as black and white.

Ink cost is low enough for the savings to pay for the printer itself.

Although text quality is good enough for most business needs, it's a little below par for a laser-class printer.

Xerox Phaser 8860

 

Anyone who owns a printer is familiar with the business model known as giving away the razor (read: printer) to sell the blades (read: ink). But with the Xerox Phaser 8860 Color Printer ($2,500 street), Xerox has just turned the equation around, giving...

There are stacks of choice when it comes to buying a printer, but if you are looking toward the higher end, something for a professional graphics market, then a lot more has to be considered. Speed plays a big part, as does quality of the prints, but...

Far From Perfect...

 

We print about 100,000 pages a year on ours, and have had several service calls for strange problems it has developed. If I don't clean it at least once a week, it ends up with major print quality issues (cleaning takes up quite a lot of ink--you can...

Networkable, Glossy Prints, Good Paper Handling, Intiutive Menus & Driver, acceptably fast

Needs to be Cleaned Constantly if you don't want miscolored lines running down every page, Lots of Service Calls, Guzzles Ink, Prints remind me of something from a Deskjet 600 with a bit of gloss (very low realistic DPI)

PHASER 8860DN SOLID INK 30PPM 256MB ENET USB LTR LGL DUPLEX

 

i bought this to print 200 copies of a 55 sheet, 110 sided doent. This handled the job w/o jamming once. I''m very pleased with the color rendering as well.

Prints nice photos. Very affordable color.

Cost. Also makes noise when not in use, since you have to leave it on. So not good for a bedroom. When done in high res mode, 2-sided, I got 1 every 12 seconds. So that''s technically about 10 ppm in color. Significantly less than the rated speed. I''m...
