Xerox SA recently introduced two of its latest products, the DocuColor 2240 and 1632 systems that are aimed at delivering low cost, fast print speeds and image quality that will accelerate the migration from black-and-white to colour in the office and among quick-print shops. The two systems print, copy and scan, expanding options for managing colour documents in paper and electronic form.

The Xerox DocuColor 2240 Printer/Copier and DocuColor 1632 Printer/Copier both produce colour prints and copies for less than R1,00 per page. They also share the same high-productivity features with print speeds of 22 colour and 40 black-and-white pages per minute on the DocuColor 2240 and 16 colour and 32 black-and-white on the DocuColor 1632. "A few years ago, producing a colour report or presentation would set you apart, but today's office professionals are so accustomed to colour's added value that it is rapidly becoming a requirement," said Kevin Hearnshaw, colour product manager at Xerox SA.

"The DocuColor 2240 and 1632 will accelerate this trend by making colour affordable, with benchmark operating costs for excellent colour quality and productive print and copy speeds." The latest breakthroughs in operating costs and image quality are supported by the products' use of chemically produced emulsion aggregation (EA) toner. With this technology, less toner is required to make an image, reducing waste and enabling lower running costs.

The two models each have a standard paper capacity of 3140 sheets. Paper-handling capabilities include a duplexing automatic document feeder for trayless duplexing, a face-up output tray and an offsetting catch tray.
