EVALUATE PRODUCTIVITY

To handle departmental levels of activity a printer has to be fast, not just in print engine specs but in real

world use. Consider first page out time, engine speed including high resolution printing speed and double

sided printing speed to get a true picture of real-world throughput capabilities.

Consider the power behind the speed. Is the processor fast enough to RIP jobs quickly and get them to

the print engine without delay? Is the memory sufficient for departmental workloads?

Is it able to handle long printing queues while maintaining performance?

Consider capacities. Are the paper input and output capabilities sufficient for the departmental demands

of many multiple users? Are there finishing options to provide distribution-ready documents without

slowing down the entire process?

HOW THE PHASER 5500 EXCEEDS THE PRODUCTIVITY REQUIREMENT

Speed.

At 50 pages per minute (ppm), the Phaser 5500 will match the speed of the major competitors but will

exceed those products in total printing performance. The ability to maintain 100% throughput when

printing in Duplex mode is a significant plus in this environment. First Page Out Time (FPOT) of only

three seconds from Ready Mode, six seconds from Standby Mode, puts the Phaser 5500 ahead of the pack

from the very beginning.

Power.

The Phaser 5500 provides a standard memory of 128MB even on the base model, which is at least

double what the competition currently offers. That plus superb controller performance with a 500 MHz

RISC processor, allows the Phaser 5500 to print true 1200 x 1200 dpi jobs at full engine speed. This is

something that no competitor can do. The large memory also supports RAM collation for multi-set jobs,

without a hard drive.

Capacity.

The Phaser 5500 has production level paper handling that offers end-users superior flexibility for

complex applications. The basic configuration comes with three paper sources: two Universal Trays

(variable sizes up to A3) handling up to 500 sheets each and one Bypass tray with a capacity of up

to 100 sheets (or 10 envelopes). You can add a 1,000 sheet feeder with two additional 500 sheet Universal

Trays, and a separate 2,000 sheet feeder that handles A4 paper for a total of 4,100 sheets of fast,

high volume printing. (The 1,000 sheet feeder is required before the 2,000 sheet feeder can be added.)

The Phaser 5500 comes standard with a 500 sheet facedown output tray. For high volume stacking

requirements, you have two options: A 3,500 sheet Stacker or a 3,500 sheet Finisher, which adds stapling

and hole punching capabilities.
