Manufacturer's Description

Xerox Phaser 8400N Solid Ink Printer

You heard right, the speedy Phaser 8400N Solid Ink Printer prints at 24 ppm in fast color and monochrome with the first page out in just 6 seconds. Thanks to its 500 MHz processor and 128MB standard RAM (expandable to 512MB), now you can enjoy these incredible speeds. Meanwhile, this printer features a maximum 2400 dpi resolution for exceptional quality, and its duty cycle reaches 85,000 pages per month, so you don't have to worry about overworking it.You'd expect to find such high performance in complicated machines, but the 8400N is easy to use. The Phaser 8400N uses PostScript 3 and PCL 5C emulations with automatic sensing and switching. The 8400N gives you unparalleled printing flexibility. Not only does it come with a standard input capacity of 625 sheets, but you can add optional trays to boost its capacity to 1,500 sheets. Its Ethernet connectivity and embedded web server provides remote printing and email alerts. An optional duplex unit allows you to print two-sided documents.

Duration of ownership: 4 Months

Strengths: Good product if you print color text only. Easily to integrate in your network with Xerox CenterWare (can be downloaded from Xerox site). Resolution can be adjusted to suit the job. Compact. Fast.

Weaknesses:Wax cubes are very expensive. Printer will not work if wax is low. Banner and pictures waste a lot of wax. Takes too long to warm up compared to a similar color printer.

Overall Evaluation: Bought 2 of these for my office! On paper things looked good at first, documentation said that each wax cube last for over 3000 pages, but it couldn't go over 900 without adding new wax. Wax is very expensive; $65 for box of three (same color, printer has 4 colors, including black) and these (especially yellow and magenta) go in less than 2 weeks. Printer takes too long to warm up and some people have a problem with the melting wax smell. Overall, not very happy! While I must state that except for being pricey on the wax, everyone is very happy with the printout quality - my only justification for still keeping them, i regret buying these printers. Buy one if color text and graphics is most that you print, stay clear if you print pictures or ppt files with banners and embedded pictures. No other problems

Duration of ownership: 1 Years

Strengths: CheapWaterproof prints.Fast Easy setup

Weaknesses:For small to large businesses. Needs to be printed to to keep head clean, although not as much as previous generations of solid ink. Uses more hydro than lasers to keep the ink melted.

Overall Evaluation: Your review on this printer states that it does about 10 pages per minute. That is its slowest speed. In fast colour resolution it will print a page 24 times in one minute. Tested by myself. Print speeds are rated by engine speed not how long it takes from time sent from the computer. Images and prints can be easy like text or complex images. Xerox rates it at 24 ppm. When the printer starts to print the page to the time the last page comes out. Due to your review some peaple have wanted to return the product claiming Xerox has cheated them. Maybe you should test this again properly!!!

Duration of ownership: 40 Days

Strengths: Beautiful vivid text. Colors are bright and crisp.

Weaknesses:Interacting with software. Margins

Overall Evaluation: If you need to print close to edge of custom sized stock (not regular letter), you can't do it with this. Margins cannot be closer than .49 from edge of custom-sized paper, which is a problem with our invitation business. Photoshop files very SLOW to print - Xerox really didn't give a good explanation on this.

Review:

Xerox Phaser 8400N

A modest price, bright colors, and fine text quality outweigh some negatives of the Phaser 8400N's exotic printing technology.
