Xerox PE120 Printer Review
Looking for an all-in-one capable of up to 150,000 pages for your large office? If so, you may want to consider the Xerox WorkCentre PE120. Using only one WorkCentre PE120 toner cartridge, the upkeep will be simple, and it can connect via USB or parallel cord. It is only compatible with Windows operating systems though, so all other system users will have to look elsewhere. It is versatile in its media types, though, printing on transparencies, envelopes, labels and plain paper. Resolutions as high as 1200x1200 dpi can be reached on each type.
The PE120 impresses users over and over again. Consumers find that its printing, copying and fax functions work great, and most love the handy automatic document feeder that is included. Users love the fact that a telephone is built into the machine, but they do not like that the other functions cannot be used when the telephone is in use. The scanners inability to scan images larger than 8.5x11 inch documents and the amount of paper jams are also flaws, according to users. Most find that it has quick and easy setup, and many comment that it has fast warm-up too. A few have also commented that the Xerox PE120 toner cartridges are a little expensive to maintain. A compatible version of the Xerox toner cartridge is available at a much more affordable cost.
People may not know the secret to keeping laser toner costs low is by purchasing compatible cartridges. Remanufactured versions of the WorkCentre PE120 toner are available all over the web for only a fraction of the OEM price. You would think with such a large reduction in price, there would be a reduction in quality. However, the Xerox PE120 toner exerts the same high quality as the OEM printer toner, and it can yield the same number of pages. If remanufactured Xerox PE120 toner is used with this machine, anyone can afford to own and maintain it, no matter their budget.
