Sample scenario
Company: Shelby Recruiting
| Affordable
colour on the network Introduction |
Scenario 1: This company wants to roll out colour printers for each branch office.
Approximate budget: $5000 per printer. Branches have up to 10 staff each, so print volumes are expected to be low, but highquality output is still important.
Requires: 25 colour printers that are network ready.
Concerns: Running costs are a concern and need to be evaluated.
Best solution: The HP Color LaserJet 4600dn stood out from the rest of the field because it offered an excellent balance of performance, print quality, features and options. For example, it can print in monochrome and colour at very high speeds. Its print quality was generally very good, it's inexpensive to run and it featured heaps of memory, an auto duplexing unit and a 500-sheet paper tray as standard.
Furthermore, if you were to increase your print volumes around the office this printer will be able to handle the extra workload much better than any of the other printers.
The Epson AL-C1900 also deserves a worthy mention for its excellent print quality and so does the Canon N2000, which offers a significantly lower TCO however if we were to print more that 2500 pages per month it won't be as cost efficient as the HP.
