Xerox C175 Printer Review
Boasting an impressive maximum copy speed of up to 75 pages per minute, the Xerox CopyCentre C175 is one of the fastest laser copiers in its price range, and buyers can start small and build it up as they go. The first page out time is around 2.9 seconds for a quick response to a new task, and the cost of Xerox C175 printer toner is low enough for affordable high-volume copying.
Nearly every feature of the C175 seems geared toward speeding up workflow. A robust multi-tasking design allows users to scan ahead future jobs while another is running, smart paper trays can sense the size of paper automatically to fulfill requested tasks, and the queue allows for quick prioritization right from the touchscreen control panel. It can even stop a job when a resource is unavailable (such as a specific paper size) and continue down the queue without a significant delay.
Since the C175 is a standalone copier, the design of the touchscreen display is even more important. The large screen provides easy access to essential features and options, while also providing status updates on paper supply and the amount of CopyCentre C175 toner remaining, alerting users when replacement toners will soon be necessary.
The initial paper capacity of the C175 includes two 550-sheet trays and a 100-sheet bypass tray. The maximum input capacity is 4,800 sheets, however, so even the busiest offices won't be left out in the cold.
Users only get one size of Xerox C175 toner cartridge to choose from, but a two-pack can provide up to 90,000 pages at an affordable price. The CopyCentre C175 toner cartridges are easily stored and easily inserted, and the low cost per page of Xerox C175 toner is easily one of the unit's best attributes.
For a standalone digital copier, the Xerox C175 really is quite impressive. It has some of the fastest output speeds in its class, with numerous features designed to keep documents moving. It is also a very cost-effective solution that will likely save money compared to the unit it replaces.
