EVALUATE PRODUCTIVITY
In addition to actual print engine speed, consider the things that affect overall throughput. Are the MFP’s
scanning and faxing features powerful enough to support your busy departments? What is the warm-up wait
time? Is the device appropriately sized for the entire workgroup? Can features be used simultaneously, or are
employees forced to wait for the device to become “free”? Is the system designed to minimize network traf-
fic? Can you monitor the device functions from your desktop and/or at the device?
PRODUCTIVITY
The productivity of the WorkCentre 5600 series starts with seven output-engine-speed
options, which deliver output speeds from up to 32 ppm black-and-white to up to 87 ppm
black-and-white — ensuring the right fit for a wide array of office environments and work-
groups. Document handling speed is notable as well, with a 100-sheet DADF that scans
single-sided documents at 60 or 85 ipm and double-sided documents at 28 or 38 ipm. With
FCOTs ranging from as fast as 4.6 seconds to 2.7 seconds and FPOTs from as fast as 9.2 sec-
onds to 5.5 seconds, you won’t have to wait long for your jobs to get started either.
NETWORK PERFORMANCE
Performance isn’t limited to raw document feeds and speeds. All network-enabled Work-
Centre 5600 MFPs feature the Xerox SMart Controller, which utilizes a 1.4 GHz processor
with a minimum 80 GB hard drive. It’s ready and able to process your large, complex print
and scan jobs. In addition, 10/100Base-TX Ethernet connectivity comes standard for shared
network printing, and optional adapters for 10Base2, 10Base5, 802.11b wireless Ethernet,
and USB ensure you can connect the WorkCentre 5600 series to your company’s specific
needs.
The WorkCentre 5600 series is easy on your network as well. With RAM collation, files are sent over
the network just once no matter how many sets are printed. Job pipelining allows the MFP to process
print jobs even if the print engine is busy with an earlier print job — thus optimizing system perfor-
mance by avoiding delays during job processing.
IMAGE QUALITY
With up to 4800 x 1200 interpolated dpi copy resolution, the WorkCentre 5600 series generates
high-quality copies and prints with crisp text and images. Xerox also delivers multiple Page
Description Languages (PDLs) to ensure your printed output meets your high expectations,
including PostScript

CONCURRENCY
The WorkCentre 5600 series SMart Controller also helps avoid bottlenecks at the front panel. Con-
current operation means you won’t have to wait until a long print job is complete to program a fax,
scan or copy job. By keeping the front panel available for programming while the print engine is
busy, your employees can stay productive and avoid idle time waiting for the MFP. Scan and fax jobs
can be programmed and executed without waiting for the print engine to become available, while
newly programmed copy jobs will join the job queue and be executed when earlier jobs are com-
pleted.
MONITORING SYSTEM STATUS
With the WorkCentre 5600 series, up-to-date information on every job you process — print, copy,
scan, email or fax, plus in-depth device information — is always at your fingertips. Whether at the
device or from your desktop, you can manage documents and jobs through an integrated job queue
with a few mouse-clicks or button pushes.
