Xerox Phaser 6010 Color Laser Printer Offers Big Color In A Small Package

For small businesses with a premium on space but a need for vibrant colors, Xerox offers its latest turn on a technology called “Emulsion Aggregate Toner” (EA Toner for short) in its new Phaser 6010 color laser printer. No ordinary toner, it produces 16 shades of color per pixel that Xerox claims offers crisper text and smooth color transitions. Xerox says the quality of the Phaser 6010’s 600x600 dpi prints can be as good or better than traditional 1200x1200 prints.

Perhaps of more interest to its target market, you can continue printing in black and white when the color toner runs out. The LCD panel shows you how much toner remains (the printer can also email you when it’s running low). Also, Xerox claims the printer is quiet thanks to its “Hi-Q LED print engine.” Printers, after all, should print, not shout.

A stylish cube, the printer has compact footprint for small workspaces but doesn’t skimp on speed, turning out 12 pages per minute for color prints. When connected to your network via Ethernet, you can access the printer via your Web browser for remote troubleshooting.
