The Xerox Phaser 8500 and 8550 are great options if you are looking for printing facility for an office network. They are quick in picking up data, could print pages faster and are inter operable with most networks.

Lower end printers print around 24 pages per minute while the higher ones can reach up to 30 pages per minute

A similar but smaller printer in the same line in the Phaser 8650. It is intended for home and small office use, and thus has lesser capabilities than the 8500 and 8550. In particular, it prints more slowly with lower resolution. However, its ink has the same high quality as the business printers, and it is considerably less costly to buy and operate.

The most unique aspect of this series of printers is, as stated before, their Phaser 8500 ink. Xerox has developed the only solid ink on the market that prints in one pass, allowing for greater printer speed without sacrificing quality. In addition, having a document print in one sweep prevents misalignement between passes that can result in illegible or unprofessional-looking documents.

Solid ink resists colour separation or layering within the cartridge. This creates consistent colour throughout the life of the Xerox 8560 toner cartridge. Solid colour also tend to be more saturated and looks brighter. These inks are also environmentally accepted.
