• Printer Summary

-Three types of printers with different usages
"As far as printer goes, we'll use three printers for our company. Each of them has a different role in the office" 

- Fuji Xerox Phaser 7760; Color office printer for main use
http://www.office.xerox.com/latest/776BR-011.PDF
"The first printer is usually used for main printing in the company. Xerox Phaser 7760 is designed for hight volume printing and offers impressive print speed and efficient processing."        

- Ricoh GX 7000; Dye-sublimation printer for picture copying and printing
http://www.ricoh-usa.com/products/brochures/gx7000.pdf
"The second printer is dye-sublimation printer which will be used for picture copying and printing. We think it is ideal for a magagine company like us, since this type of printer can create more photo-lab quality than with other type of printers." 

- Samsung CLX-3175FN; Multifunction printer for administration
http://www.etos.biz/Samsung_clx3175fn_Brochure.pdf
"The last printer is used for the adminisration and this has multifunctions. CLX-3175FN is a small all-in-one color printer suitable for managing jobs in the office." 

• Multifunction Printer

- By administrator, which has features of scaning, copying and faxing
"Now, we'll see each of three more in detail. The multifunction Printer has three fanction other than printing, such as scaning, copying and faxing."

- Used by single person, thus no need to have seperate machine by each function
"It's a better idea that we'll have only this single macine because it seems no one share this printer in our company other than administrator. Therefore, we don't have to consider queing time by two or more person using it."  

- Compared to having two seperated machine, cost saving, space saving, less power consumption
"If we have two separate machines as a printer and a scanner, it will cost us approximately $500 compared to $400 when we have this printer only. Also, this leads power consumption and space saving."

• Dye-sublimation printer

- Necessary for a page which require high quality photo, such as a cover etc..

"Dye-sublimation is often used by magagine companies, because of the high quality of photo printing. We think it'll be useful when we design a cover of our magazine or something like that."
 
- Overcoating make the print resistant to air, UV light, water and finger print etc...
"Dye-sublimation printing also has another feature called overcoating which can make the page resistant to various environment, which is also good for a cover itself."

- Highest Resolution 3600 × 1200 dpi of the three printers
"This printer has  the highest resolution of three printers. So when you want a high quality printing, it is the best option you will choose."     

• Laser Printer

- Larger sheets capacity (up to 3150) to carry main printing at office and duty cycle up to 150000 pages per month
"To manage the main usage of printing, it has a huge capacity of paper storage. It can carry up to 3150 sheets of paper and can print up to 150,000 pages per month."  

- 45 ppm in B&W
"While our current printer is capable of only six pages per a minute in black and white, it can 
print 45 page in a minute in black and white printing and 35 page in a minute in color printing, so it will be significant time-saving."

- Automatic two sided printing
"It also has an autimatic two sided printing feature, which should be useful to actually print contents of a magagine."

• Networking

- Every printer can be shared by using cables or network
"It means that you can use any of three printer anytime you want. Also, you can set the priority to be determined which person should print first when two or more person use the printer at the same time."

- Make tasks smooth and speedy
"For example, with network sharing, you don't have to collect a paper printed to the remote printer instead of the printer next to your desk. It must make tasks in the office smoother and speedier. "

• Ink

-Need to be periodically replaced with each unique toner or cartridges
"All toner and cartridges are periodically replaced everytime we run out of it. So, I recommend you to always have some extras to replenish them." 

• Paper

- All printer support sizes up to A3 (297 × 420 mm) or A4 (210 × 297 mm)   

"CX7000 and Phaser7760 support the size of paper, A3, which is about 297 × 420 mm and all printers can print up to the size, A4, which is 210 × 297 mm. Depending on the task, you can adjust the paper size which you are gonna use."   

- When dye-sublimation printing, require a special kind of paper

"The dye-sublimation printer need to  be used plain paper containing sublimation dyes which can be permanently transferred by heat.  
So, we must be careful not to put regular paper in this tray."

  • - Compared to having two seperated machine, cost saving, space saving, less power consumption

I'm sure you'll have questions for me. If we have to, I might be able to talk to you on Sunday (your time) if I go to bed early enough. If you want me to, let me know ahead of time (by email, as i don't have a notification system for replies on lang-8).

You know, i wanna get that printer ordered already. I'm sick of reading about it without having one.

I'm not 100% sure that i didn't miss anything...
