Fuji Xerox DocuPrint M205FW promises to
print your documents quietly and efficiently
Efficiency is a big word to be thrown
around where productivity machines are concerned. There is a lot to the word efficiency
other than "how fast'' or "how much" a machine can churn out,
but leave other aspects of the machine up in the air. Fuji Xerox aims to kick
this bad habit to the curve, and to that end, they've come up with the
DocuPrint M205FW.
The M205FW is a business printer through
and through. It is a multifunction printer (MFP) that performs multiple tasks
such as print, scan, copy and also fax. Note, though, that the M205FW is a
monochrome printer, so it's strictly made for document printing in the office where
printers are constantly abuzz with activity.
Despite this, the M205FW is a printer of
great quality. Its LAN and WiFi capability allows the printer to be shared
amongst colleagues in the same office environment, so you really only need one
printer in the office.
Where printing quality and efficiency is
concerned, the M205FW isn't a slowpoke. With a first page out time of about 10
seconds and a page per minute (ppm) count of 25ppm, the M205FW is excellent for
printing out documents from monthly sales reports to business documents.
The copy and scan features resolutions of
up to 600 x 600 dpi and 1200 x 1200 dpi (optical) up to 4800 x 4800 dpi
respectively. The scan feature particularly shines here as it also has an ID
card copy feature (that copies the front and back of the card simultaneously).
Edge Erase and the Collate feature that puts all your scanned documents in one
file.
But what makes the M205FW a truly efficient
printer? For starters, the toner cartridge for the M205FW is about the size of
two small cans of cat food stacked together, and yet is capable of printing up
to 20,000 pages of documents in one duty cycle. The size of the cartridge is
also important here as the smaller the cartridge the easier it is to recycle.
Not only that, the M205FW also has a
feature called Toner Saver Mode that uses even less toner, which helps increase
the lifespan of the cartridge by a significant amount, allowing for more
documents to be printed. Plus using Fuji Xerox's S-LED print technology, the
printer actually uses less power than other conventional inkjet or laser
printer.
