Xerox 5325 Printer Review

The Xerox WorkCentre 5325 monochrome laser copier will have some appeal for medium or large offices, but it specifically fills a niche with its ability to handle and copy up to tabloid sized media. It can be configured as a standalone copier, or as a multifunction device that can also print and scan. Either way, it reaches speeds of up to 25 pages per minute, and uses affordable Xerox 5325 printer toner to minimize operating costs.

The automatic document feeder can hold up to 110 sheets, which makes copying and scanning a much quicker task. Scans can be sent to email addresses or saved on local USB media or the internal 160 GB hard drive. A network scanning option is available as an upgrade, to send files to a drive on the shared network. This seems like a strange feature to leave out of the standard model, but with so many options, it may not be necessary.

When printing, the device can output pages at 1200 dpi resolution with the WorkCentre 5325 toner. Copies are limited to 600 dpi, but this should be more than adequate for most uses. Its first page out time is around 11 seconds for prints, and 4.2 seconds for copies. Both the memory and paper capacity are ready to be upgraded should users need more capabilities in the future.

While the initial cost of replacement toners might seem a little high, the Xerox 5325 toner cartridges have a capacity of up to 30,000 pages. This means a very low cost per page for WorkCentre 5325 toner cartridges of well below a penny. This also ensures that even busy offices won't be purchasing replacement Xerox 5325 toner too frequently.

Overall, even buyers who don't particularly need its tabloid-sized paper handling will benefit from the 5325's combination of speed, high-quality output, and affordable operating costs. It is highly recommended, as long as buyers can stomach its high purchase price.
