2012-08-29T23:53:09Z fuji-xerox-printers-supports-environmental-youth-competition-1

August 30, 2012: The winners of the Cartridge World Ipswich “Switch and Save the Environment of Ipswich” competition were celebrated at an awards ceremony on Monday, August 27.According to Cartridge World QLD Master Franchisor, David Smith, the competition, which celebrates Cartridge World Ipswich’s 10thbirthday and ongoing commitment to reducing local landfill space, was to bring together fellow environmentally conscious citizens including students, parents and friends, P & C’s, teachers and lecturers and the broader Ipswich community. He said Cartridge World is an environmental friendly and conscious company which believes strongly in its motto - “reduce, reuse and recycle”.“We try to educate by example and Annette in our Ipswichstore is a great example of that. She and her staff are very much involved in the community and this competition is just one example of a great initiative from her and her team”.Sponsored by Fuji Xerox Printers, students from primary, secondary and tertiary levels were asked to enter their suggestions on how they would save landfill space in Ipswich.The student with the best 150 word response from each category was awarded an iPad, presented by Ipswich Mayor, The Honourable Cr Paul Pisasale, and the school or tertiary institution they attend will receive up to $3000 of new office printing equipment, including a ColorQube 8570 printer, a spare set of solid ink cartridges and five boxes of recycled paper - thanks to Fuji Xerox Printers.The winners included:-Primary Entry Winner: Nicolas May from AmberleyDistrictStateSchool; who suggested “we need to pick up rubbish when we see it. We can also turn it into building materials. For example, if there is a tyre we can make a building’s footings with rubber. Building with rubber foundations also helps to make the building more secure in earthquake areas because the building will wobble rather than fall down”.- Secondary Entry Winner: Jayden Vines from Bremer State High School; who suggested “all cartridges should be sent back to be refilled or to Cartridge World. Use the material shopping bags instead of having plastic or paper bags. Use recycle bins properly and recycle all paper and waste correctly. Compost our food scraps, use compost bins or a worm farm”.- Tertiary Entry Winner: Nikki Parker from The University of Southern Queensland; who suggested “it is in the best interests of our environment, our community and our children’s future to reduce landfill. Increasing the life of products, reducing our own consumption and purchasing products with less packaging are all ways we can decrease landfill. Everything which is capable of recycling should be recycled, both in home and by Ipswich industries".Fuji Xerox Channel Manager Queensland, Amanda Walters said they were thrilled to be part of the promotion which “not only supports the community of Ipswich and local schools but also helps to educate its youth on the importance of recycling”.“Fuji Xerox has a strong commitment to the environment and has always looked to utilise innovative technology that enable our customers to reduce their carbon footprint. Our ColorCube printer generates up to 90 percent less printing waste than comparable colour laser printers through the use of revolutionary new solid ink. This ink is easier to use, with no cartridges to load and unload and no mess. This ink is also much kinder on the environment because it requires far less packaging than conventional supplies.”The competition, which ran from July 24 to August 14 saw students from across 28 schools, TAFE and universities enter. It was judged by Ipswich Mayor, The Honourable Cr Paul Pisasale, Amanda Walters and Elaine O’Donnell from Fuji Xerox Printers, Cartridge World Ipswich Director Annette Jones, Cartridge World QLD Master Franchisor David Smith, Thiess Services General Manager of Waste Management Peter King and Yvonne Gardiner from the Ipswich Advertiser.

2012-02-16T07:42:59Z fuji-xerox-phaser-6700-makes-colour-easy-for-busy-offices

Fuji Xerox Printers has launched the Phaser 6700, the highest resolution colour printer in its class. This device is the first Fuji Xerox single function printer to feature an intuitive 4.3 inch colour touch screen interface and new Color by Words technology for unparalleled ease of use. Combining lightning fast print speeds with superior reliability, the Phaser 6700 boosts productivity and improves print quality while keeping print costs in check. “In developing the Phaser 6700 we set out to deliver an affordable printer that sets new benchmarks across a number of key parameters – print quality, ease of use, productivity and power consumption,” said David Borg, General Manager, Fuji Xerox Printers Australia and New Zealand. “From busy SMBs to large workgroups with high average monthly print volumes, the Phaser 6700 is an ideal print solution.” Best in class ease of use Ease of use is a key aspect of the Phaser 6700’s design. The 4.3 inch touch screen interface is incorporated to streamline user experience, with intuitive colour icons for simple navigation and walk-up operation. Users can also resolve most issues quickly thanks to the embedded troubleshooting videos, avoiding the wait for IT support. To further enhance usability, the Phaser 6700’s toner cartridges are housed within the front panel of the device, enabling easy access when consumables require replenishment. Superior print quality The highest resolution A4 colour printer in its class, the Phaser 6700 offers superior print quality with true 1200 x 2400 dpi image reproduction and Adobe Postscript 3™ software for sharp, accurate results. The device also features intuitive Color by Words technology – an innovative new colour-matching program that enables users to fine tune colours to deliver outstanding results. Users can simply select from a unique menu of words, such as ‘red apple’, ‘blue sky’ or ‘green grass’ to fine tune the colours they desire. Enhanced productivity With an advanced 1.25GHz processor, the Phaser 6700 operates at continuously fast print speeds of up to 45 pages per minute in colour and monochrome. It can manage even the heaviest print loads, handling capacities of up to 2900 pages to allow users to work with minimal interruption. It also boasts a monthly duty cycle of 120,000 pages, enabling users to print large volumes with ease. To keep pace with busy workgroups, a new ‘Print Around’ feature ensures continuous workflow, enabling active documents to be moved ahead of stalled jobs in the print queue. Plus, an email notification service alerts users about toner and paper shortages so that these can be tackled before they cause delays. Sustainable operation and affordability Designed to meet Energy Star standards for reduced power consumption, the Phaser 6700 offers the lowest power consumption in its class, reducing power bills. It also features innovative EA Eco Toner which fuses together at a lower temperature than traditional laser consumables. This reduces power consumption by up to 20 percent and carbon emissions by up to 35 percent, compared to traditional toner. Automatic duplexing comes as a standard feature on the Phaser 6700, encouraging employees to print two-sided documents to reduce paper usage. Cost is an important consideration for organisations that regularly produce high volumes. Innovative split consumables technology means that toners and drums are housed separately unlike traditional laser printers which store consumables together forcing users to change them at the same time, no matter how much life is left in each. To maximise the life of consumables, the Phaser 6700 features high capacity toner cartridges to deliver around 18,000 pages in black and 12,000 pages in colour. State-of-the-art security to safeguard sensitive information The Phaser 6700 is designed with state-of-the-art security to protect confidential business data such as such as HR records and financial data. These include a Secure Print function which temporarily holds documents in a queue on the optional hard disk drive until the appropriate job owner enters a pin number at the control panel. The device also includes built-in IPv6 support and IPSec as standard security features. Advanced encryption technology is designed to safeguard sensitive information from unauthorised access and the Image Overwrite function actively removes unnecessary data from the printer’s memory, keeping sensitive documents secure. Availability and pricing The Fuji Xerox Phaser 6700 is available from March through authorised channel partners and resellers at the recommended retail price of AU$3499 + GST.

2012-02-16T07:41:42Z raise-the-productivity-bar-with-the-multi-tasking-workcentre-3550

Fuji Xerox Printers has announced the launch of the WorkCentre 3550, a high resolution A4 monochrome multifunction printer designed to enhance productivity in large enterprises and busy small to medium sized businesses. The affordable WorkCentre 3550 combines print, copy, colour scan and fax capabilities into one compact device that is packed with efficiency-driving features. Engineered for continually reliable performance and high quality results, the device can handle a steady stream of jobs with ease. “Monochrome represents more than 75 percent of the multifunction printer market, with demand for these devices increasing. Businesses are not only looking for fast speeds, but require a printing solution that saves time, money and provides certainty around costs,” said David Borg, General Manager, Fuji Xerox Printers Australia and New Zealand. “With this launch Fuji Xerox has taken office productivity to the next level, streamlining workflow and enabling multi-tasking for hassle-free operation, while not asking businesses to compromise on print quality.” Leading the way in productivity Fully-featured multifunction printers are becoming an increasingly popular choice for businesses looking to consolidate single-function devices and seeking solutions that improve office productivity. Delivering on this promise, the WorkCentre 3550 offers multi-tasking capabilities allowing users to concurrently print, copy, colour scan and fax. With a hard-working monthly duty cycle of 75,000 pages, the WorkCentre 3550 keeps pace with even the busiest workgroups. It can deliver up to 33 pages per minute, with a first page print time of just 8.5 seconds. To minimise downtime caused by paper refills, the printer offers advanced paper handling with a continuous paper feed of up to 1,050 sheets (with an additional paper tray). To increase document management efficiency, the WorkCentre 3550 is able to convert hard copy documents into PDF files that can be routed to the office server, email contacts or a USB memory device. It is also offers a ‘fax forward to email or server’ capability to further enhance workflow. Balancing quality and cost efficiencies Managing running costs while producing a high standard of business documents can be a challenge for smaller businesses. These organisations have the same document quality requirements as their larger counterparts, but are typically restricted by tighter budgets. Representing value for money, the WorkCentre 3550 offers a print and copy resolution of up to 1200 x 1200 for sharp and accurate results, and offers many of the same features as more expensive devices. Organisations can lower their energy consumption and reduce their carbon footprint thanks to the printer’s advanced power saving modes. The WorkCentre 3550 uses just 60W of power in standby mode and 20W in sleep mode and is Energy Star compliant, meeting global standards for reduced energy consumption. As paper is an ongoing business expense, the WorkCentre 3550 also includes a number of innovative features that reduce paper use by incorporating hard copy documents into digital workflows. The device also comes standard with automatic duplexing and N-up technology which enables users to place multiple documents on a single printed page. Toner is also conserved with an innovative toner-saving mode, maximising the life of consumables and reducing running costs. Ease of use The WorkCentre 3550’s user-friendly control panel features a simple menu layout and four-line display, so that users can quickly identify the status of the device and manage their documents efficiently. Consumables can be easily changed by users themselves, avoiding downtime caused by waiting for IT support. Plus, an email notification service alerts users about toner and paper shortages so that these can be tackled before they also cause delays. Robust security technology to protect sensitive data The WorkCentre 3550 is engineered with several security features to protect sensitive data, such as confidential human resources files or financial information. For example, the WorkCentre 3550 features IP address restriction technology to ensure that only documents printed from specific IP addresses can be produced, using pre-registered email addresses that have been saved into the WorkCentre 3550’s memory. The Secure Print option also protects confidential documents by holding private jobs in a queue until the appropriate job owner enters a pin code at the control panel of the printer itself. Pricing and availability The Fuji Xerox WorkCentre 3550 is available from March through authorised channel partners and resellers at the recommended retail price of AU$1099 + GST.

Meanwhile ‘Job Tracker’ alerts users to print issues and provides trouble shooting advice by way of video demonstration to further reduce downtime. Easy to use, easy on the environment For less technical users, innovative Color by Words technology allows anyone from a graphic designer to the office administrator to easily achieve the colours they desire. Users can simply select from a unique menu of words, such as ‘red apple’, ‘blue sky’ or ‘green grass’ to fine tune colour output.

As an optional extra, the Phaser 7800 also offers Fuji Xerox’s industry leading PhaserMatch 5.0 technology, to deliver superior colour matching between printed documents and output devices such as computer screens or digital presses. To further ensure high precision prints Fuji Xerox’s exclusive SLED print head creates sharp detail and smooth colour transition without streaking, and Adobe PostScript 3™ provides the accuracy demanded in professional design environments. Exceptional media handling and professional finishing options Enabling media mastery, the Phaser 7800 handles an unparalleled variety of stock weights – from 75 to 350gsm. Business users can easily create professional quality custom brochures, sales proposals, posters and banners, while creative professionals can push design boundaries with heavyweight paper for books and calendars, and non-traditional sizes for postcards, business cards and photos. Finishing options include booklet making, creasing, stacking and hole punching, each setting allowing for a high level of customisation. Superior productivity The Phaser 7800 has been engineered for fast paced, deadline-driven environments, delivering superior results without sacrificing speed or reliability. The device delivers up to 45 pages per minute in colour and monochrome and boasts a 1.33GHz processor to handle high volume print loads. Featuring a duty cycle of up to 225,000 pages per month, it has been designed to withstand constant use while delivering consistent performance. The Phaser 7800’s paper trays can be configured with various paper sizes and weights to suit different business requirements and save time that would be spent reloading paper every time custom stock is required. Large paper capacity of up to 3,140 sheets (with additional paper trays) ensures continuous printing without interruption. To further boost productivity the Phaser 7800 offers a new ‘Print Around’ feature which delays jobs that require unavailable resources and pushes jobs that can be completed to the front of the queue. Meanwhile ‘Job Tracker’ monitors individual jobs and immediately alerts the job owner of any issues, providing helpful instructions to resolve the problem quickly. Easy to use, easy on the environment For less technical users, innovative Color by Words technology allows anyone from a graphic designer to the office administrator to easily achieve the colours they desire. Users can simply select from a unique menu of words, such as ‘red apple’, ‘blue sky’ or ‘green grass’ to fine tune colour output. The Phaser 7800’s state-of-the-art 4.3 inch colour touch screen interface includes large icons and an intuitive menu to make navigation simple and fast. It includes embedded videos for trouble-shooting assistance enabling issues to be resolved quickly and avoiding the need to wait for IT support. Environmental benefits include innovative EA Eco Toner which fuses together at a lower temperature than traditional laser consumables. This reduces power consumption by up to 20 percent and carbon emissions by up to 35 percent, compared to traditional toner. It also features an induction heating fuser, which consumes substantially less power in standby mode than conventional fusers. Availability and pricing Starting at AU$6999 + GST, the Phaser 7800 is available from March through authorised channel partners and resellers.

2011-12-04T23:22:00Z fuji-xerox-releases-an-enterprise-class-a3-monochrome-laser-printer-for-the-smb-market

Fuji Xerox Printers has announced the release of the DocuPrint 3105, an A3 monochrome laser printer targeted at small to medium businesses (SMBs) that demand high performance printing. This new device brings enterprise level features, functionality and innovation to the SMB market at an affordable price point. The user-friendly DocuPrint 3105 can help SMBs drive time and cost savings while producing quality A3 printouts, combined with A4 print capabilities. The high speed printing, coupled with precision image quality, make this an ideal printing solution for a busy office. The new printer offers the lowest power consumption in its class and boasts unique Fuji Xerox ‘Toner Save’ technology to help reduce toner consumption. David Borg, General Manager, Fuji Xerox Printers Australia and New Zealand said, “SMB customers are often forced to choose between affordability and performance. Fuji Xerox Printers has addressed the needs of this market with the DocuPrint 3105, offering SMBs enterprise-class A3 and A4 monochrome print functionality in a value-for-money solution.” Enterprise class features and functionality The DocuPrint 3105 is engineered to deliver exceptional performance along with the highest print quality. To enhance productivity for time-poor employees, the device operates at one of the highest print speeds in its class, producing up to 32 pages per minute on A4 sheets and up to 17 pages per minute on A3 sheets. The DocuPrint 3105 also offers 1200 x 1200 image quality for SMBs who need to produce sleek business documents. It includes image enhancement processing technology and enables razor-sharp printouts of text and graphics with ultra-high precision, equivalent of 2,400 dpi. All of this functionality is packed into a compact desktop device, designed to save valuable office space. Reduced environmental impact SMBs are becoming more conscious of their environmental impact, demanding print solutions that help them to operate in a sustainable manner. With this in mind, the DocuPrint 3105 has been developed with a wide range of environmental features. The device is the top energy saving printer in its class, offering exceptionally low power consumption in sleep and operating modes. Additionally, Fuji Xerox fuser technology saves energy as well as ensuring a fast first page print out by reducing warm up time. The DocuPrint 3105 also adheres to stringent Energy Star requirements for reduced power consumption and energy usage. A unique ‘Toner Save’ feature has also been incorporated into the DocuPrint 3105 to help businesses minimise unnecessary waste. Organisations can choose from four toner levels, picking lighter options to print drafts or internal documents. This enables SMBs to maximise the life of cartridges, saving money as well as reducing resources consumed. Enhanced productivity and improved user experience The DocuPrint 3105 has been developed with ease-of-use in mind for SMB users who often operate without IT staff on site. The device is network ready ‘out of the box’ to simplify administration. Consumables are also easy to manage with email notifications alerting administrators to toner and paper shortages. Consumables can be quickly changed by users themselves to minimise lost productivity. To enhance further productivity, a full stack sensor is incorporated into the printer, to reduce downtime by eliminating paper jams caused by excessive amounts of paper in output trays. Robust security for sensitive business information All businesses house sensitive corporate data that needs to remain secure, including intellectual property, financial documents and HR records. With this in mind, the DocuPrint 3105 offers robust security features to help organisations protect confidential business information. These include a Secure Print function which temporarily holds documents in a queue on the hard disk drive until the appropriate job owner enters a pin number at the control panel. As an additional security measure the printer encrypts data stored on the hard drive and sent over the network. The device also includes a disk overwrite system, enabling administrators to clear data remaining in the device memory after printing is complete. The Fuji Xerox DocuPrint 3105 is available now through authorised channel partners and resellers at the recommended retail price of AU$1318.90 including GST.

2011-09-21T02:07:25Z fuji-xerox-delivers-best-in-class-print-speeds-to-busy-enterprises

Fuji Xerox Co., today announced the launch of its new Phaser monochrome laser printers – the Phaser 4600N and Phaser 4620DN. Designed to enable optimum productivity and efficiency for businesses and government departments, the Phaser 4600N / 4620DN are engineered to meet the demands of busy workgroups producing high volumes of documents. These products lead the way with lightning fast print speeds, an array of technologically advanced features and innovative printing options. David Borg, General Manager of Fuji Xerox Printers said, “The high volume monochrome segment is gaining momentum as more businesses look for solutions that enhance overall office efficiency. Fuji Xerox Printers operates 100 percent through the channel and we are committed to investing in exceptional products that will deliver real value to our channel partners to enhance their revenue streams, ultimately helping them drive sales in growth segments.” Leading the Way in Innovation Fuji Xerox is committed to delivering world-class technology. Businesses will experience industry leading speeds, with these printers producing an incredible 62 pages per minute (Phaser 4620DN) and 52 pages per minute (Phaser 4600N) with a first page out time of 7.8 seconds. With up to 1200 x 1200 enhanced image quality, the Phaser 4600N / 4620DN produces crisp, accurate documents with exceptional sharpness and clarity without compromising on speed. These printers offer superior results, while easily meeting the demands of even the most high-volume print duties, producing up to 275,000 prints per month. The Phaser 4600N / 4620DN offers an exceptional 650-sheet standard paper capacity which can be expanded up to 3,750 pages with additional paper trays, ideal for enterprises needing extra capacity or room to grow as the organisation expands. The new Phasers print on a variety of paper mediums, including transparencies, cardstock, envelopes and labels. Further enhancing office productivity, the Phaser 4600DN features automatic duplexing (optional on Phaser 4600N) to reduce paper waste. It also has the option to automatically staple up to 50 sheets of paper, eliminating the need to manually collate documents. An optional four-bin mailbox enables individual users to print to a designated tray – avoiding documents getting misplaced in a large stack of printouts. Keep Sensitive Documents Secure Businesses are now managing more sensitive data than ever. The network-ready Phaser 4600N / 4620DN is designed to protect valuable information against security risks better than ever by implementing industry-leading security features. The built-in support for IPV6 and IPSec come standard in both models and the Image Overwrite technology actively erases unneeded data from the printer’s memory to safeguard documents. Both models feature a Secure Print function which is ideal for temporarily holding confidential documents in a queue until the appropriate job owner enters a pin number at the control panel. Active documents are protected with advanced hard disk encryption to safeguard documents saved in the printer’s memory, preventing them from unauthorised access. Environmentally Sustainable The Phaser 4600N / 4620DN incorporates the latest green conservation technology to reduce the environmental footprint of businesses. Both models boast ENERGY STAR standards, reducing power consumption. Other environmentally friendly features include automatic double-sided printing (optional on Phaser 4600N) and N-up printing options, allowing businesses to group multiple pages to minimise paper consumption. Another innovative feature of the Phaser 4600N / 4620DN is split consumables technology. Traditional laser printers house consumable cartridges and the drum within the same compartment, meaning both need to be changed at the same time regardless of how much life is left in each consumable. With split consumables technology, businesses are only required to replace toners as needed. The long-life drum is designed for longer life, meaning users require fewer consumables over the life of the printer.The Fuji Xerox Phaser 4600N and the Phaser 4620DN are now available in Australia at the recommended retail price of AU$1869/NZ$2199 and AU$2749/NZ$3199 respectively including GST.
