Xerox DocuColor 252 Toner Cartridges

Xerox 252 Printer Review

The Xerox DocuColor 252 is a multifunction device that offers the 2-in-1 versatility of printing and copying documents. With some of the quickest speeds in its class at up to 65 pages per minute for monochrome documents and 50 pages per minute for color, this device can easily handle heavy-duty volumes. Going further to provide flexible media handling, long-lasting DocuColor 252 printer toner and a range of other high-performance features, this color laser printer is a good solution for busy medium or large offices.

One of the 252's most notable elements is its versatile control panel, which includes a color touchscreen interface that will provide users quick access to the features they use most and allow them to stay up-to-date on paper and Xerox 252 toner levels. Users will also be able to promote or delete projects that have been saved to its job queue with the touch of a button, as well as perform both print and copy tasks at the same time with its support of multitasking. With its built-in ethernet interface, the unit enables documents to be shared to and printed from the office network.

While its standard paper capacity of 3,620 might be plenty for some, the unit offers additional trays that can be purchased to increase the capacity to a maximum of 5,260 pages. It also has a number of finishing options like a booklet maker and stapler that will allow users to customize projects to easily create proofs, catalogs and brochures. The unit's optional additional 250-sheet automatic document feeder stores more paper than feeders of similar models, for faster scanning of large jobs.

The device can print monochrome and color projects with detail and a professional-quality resolution of 2400x2400 dpi using DocuColor 252 toner. Using separate black, cyan, magenta and yellow Xerox 252 toner cartridges means that users will be able to save money by replacing each supply individually. Each black Xerox 252 toner cartridge can last around 30,000 pages, while the color toners have a maximum capacity of 34,000 pages.

Quick speeds, ample tools for managing the flow of projects and additional office-centric features like networking make the 252 a flexible laser printer for a busy office. Additional elements like its long-lasting supplies and expandable paper handling make it one of the top picks in its class, as long as buyers can afford its high price tag.
