Xerox 4118 Printer Review

With a monthly duty cycle of 20,000 prints, the Xerox WorkCentre 4118 clearly was not designed to work in large offices with high-volume. Rather, this 60 pound multi-purpose device is more suitable for an office with limited space and average printing needs. In the old days, each piece of office equipment was separate, taking up an abundance of space and electrical outlets. The amount of wires caused confusion and seemed a bit dangerous, and maintenance for each individual machine was not cheap. This all-in-one laser unit solves those issues by combining a printer, scanner, copier and fax machine into a 22x16.9x17.9 inch frame.

The copying portion can produce 99 copies from an original and can resize an image to 25% up to 400% its original size. Up to 18 copies can be made per minute and at a resolution of 600x600 dpi using Xerox 4118 toner. The scanner has a 36-bit internal color depth and an interpolated resolution of 4800 dpi. The fax machine has a 33.6 kbps, which will send or receive faxes in less than 4 seconds. The fax memory is 640 pages with 200 speed dials. Received faxes use WorkCentre 4118 toner to print documents with a resolution of 406x392 dpi.

This is a monochromatic laser device, meaning it only prints in black-and-white. So the single Xerox 4118 toner cartridge holds black printer toner only and has a maximum page yield of 8,000 prints. Replacement WorkCentre 4118 toner cartridges are available from multiple certified vendors online and in office supplies stores.

The 4118 comes with many built-in features such as a 64 MB memory, an automatic duplexer and a 650-sheet paper capacity which can be upgraded to 1200 sheets. It is Windows and Mac compatible and connects via USB or parallel port. The affordable upfront price and reasonably price replacement Xerox 4118 toner keep this machine within most budgets.
