The Xerox Phaser 3435, priced at around £270, is a very expensive mono laser printer. It comes across as a printer with a sophisticated, attractive, and angular design. The printer is available in two colors, namely dark blue and white. The printer features a ‘collar’ like design and this collar houses the printer’s control panel. The printer also features a two-line by 16-character LCD display. This LCD display is kind of sunk in the design and houses around six control buttons. These control buttons permit you to control the machine and to navigate its menus.
As far as capacity is concerned, the Xerox Phaser 3435 features a 250-sheet main paper tray along with a 50-sheet multi-purpose tray. This multi-purpose tray can be pulled down by you from the front cover. Xerox also gives you the option of adding an optional 250-sheet tray. This optional tray can be housed under the machine and increases the printer capacity to a maximum of 550 sheets. The Phaser 3435 offers a duty cycle of around 50,000 sheets per month.
The printer houses integrated drum and toner cartridges that can be slid inside the machine from its front. Just pull down the front cover and slide in the cartridges. The cartridges are available in capacities of 4,000 pages and 10,000 pages. These high-yield cartridges give an operating cost of 1.07p per page. This proves that this printer is pretty economical in its operation. The printer works on Windows, Mac OS X, and various versions of Linux. The company also ships emulated drivers for PCL 6 and Postscript Level 3 page description languages. As far as connectivity is concerned, the printer houses USB, Ethernet, and parallel ports.
The printer offers printing speeds of 33 pages per minute for normal text and 13 pages per minute for graphics documents. The printer also boasts of duplex printing. The print quality from the printer is very good with crisp, easy to read text and well produced, bright, and vivid color images. The Xerox Phaser 3435 is available at a price of £267. Even though it is an expensive mono laser, it offers economical printing and is very performance oriented.
