Reap the benefits of fast and sharp digital copying and laser printing with the Xerox WorkCentre XE80. Advanced but accessible technology, a simple but well-chosen suite of features, and a compact but sturdy design combine to make a great addition to your home office or small business desktop.

The WorkCentre makes a great impression, even just coming out of its box. It seems solidly built, attractive, and unimposing. To setup the WorkCentre, we followed the included Quick Reference Card, which covers unpacking the unit, attaching the accessories, inserting the toner cartridge, and installing the PC software. These instructions permitted essentially flawless setup in about 10 minutes.

Just after we turned on the WorkCenter, we started making copies. The controls were intuitively obvious for enlarging, reducing, and setting the number of copies. The output was rich, sharp, and detailed; the gray shades were balanced, and there were no unexpected spots, blemishes, or streaks.

To test the printing functions, we started our favorite graphics program and printed previously scanned artwork. The output was very sharp, and the WorkCentre's gray-scale interpretation of our original's color was utilitarian-looking in 300 dpi and warm-looking in 600 dpi.

We also tested a variety of TrueType fonts, and the text was, of course, 600-dpi-laser-pefect. Colored text was interpreted and gray-scaled as we expected, although the red and green in our original appeared not only gray but also pixelated in the output.

Overall printing was very fast, both in terms of paper path throughput and the time to transfer data from our PC to the WorkCentre's memory buffer. Only 65 seconds passed between clicking the Print button in our Windows application holding eight copies of output in our hands.

Except for the initial setup, we did not need to consult the documentation for any printing or copying functions. We admire the WorkCentre's straightforward design, setup, and suitability to function. This is an excellent printer/copier for the small office environment.

5 out of 5 stars KICK [posterior]!.......2000-06-14

I bought this machine for my personal use. Being a college student living in a dorm, you can guess how many ppl use this machine and it's still giving the same performance as on Day 1! The only thing that's missing is a scanner which could've been added since it'a already a digital copier.

5 out of 5 stars I Dare you to find better.......2000-02-18

Find me a Laser Digital machine that can Copy and Print 8.5x14 for $349. I don't think it exists. The paper tray holds 250 sheets and the unit has a 3 year warranty. This unit is a die hard consistent Copier/printer. It's just a work horse. The cover even lifts up when you have to put books on it. Even though it says copies are only 6 pages a minute, the consistency at which they came out seemed more like 8 or so. It does print at 8 pages per minute, but only copies at 6. To get a laser printer/copier for $349 is a great deal no matter how you look at it. Besides, its a Xerox. These guys invented this stuff.
