Xerox Corporation (NYSE: XRX) is pumping up productivity for small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) with a new black-and-white multifunction printer (MFP), loaded with high-end features not commonly found on an entry-level MFP.

The Xerox WorkCentre® 5230 multifunction printer is designed to support busy work environments that not only need to print, copy, scan and fax, but also require more advanced functionality. The MFP prints and copies at speeds up to 30 pages per minute and has a paper capacity of up to 5,100 sheets to quickly tackle office print jobs. Using the finishing options makes it easy to handle complex tasks like booklet making and hole-punching.

"The new WorkCentre 5230 proves that offices can get a lot more from an MFP than just prints and copies," said Rick Dastin, president, Global Products Delivery Group, Xerox Corporation. "This device is full of enterprise-level features to simplify work and give SMBs the productivity and efficiency they need, while maximizing their printer technology return on investment."

Power Up Productivity

• Scanning capabilities, such as color scanning, scan to email, scan to network, mailbox or PC, as well as Job Flow Sheets, automatically route documents to a predefined file for fast retrieval.
• Network authentication, hard disk overwrite and full system Common Criteria Certification keep businesses' information safe.
• Built-in Auditron and Xerox Standard Accounting help IT administrators track usage and control cost.
• Xerox's Extensible Interface Platform® (EIP) allows software vendors and developers to customize the user screen and create specific workflows. Users can scan information directly to a client folder without specifying the client name.

The WorkCentre 5230 can be easily added to an organization's network with Xerox's Mobile Express Driver and Global Print Driver. These free, downloadable solutions provide simple connections to Xerox and non-Xerox equipment. With new configuration options, IT administrators have greater control of default settings before distributing the driver to users. Enhanced discovery methods on the Mobile Express Driver make identifying available MFPs and printers more efficient and reliable, enabling on-the-spot printing for mobile workers.

The WorkCentre 5230 is ENERGY STAR® qualified and part of the Xerox Green World Alliance - a worldwide initiative to encourage customers to recycle or dispose of supplies in a manner that minimizes impact on the environment.
