Reliability
EXCELLENT
The Samsung MultiXpress C9250ND displayed flawless reliability, completing a
100,000-impression durability test without a single misfeed or requiring any service
calls.
Because the drums and other components are designed so that they can be replaced
by users, technicians don’t have to be called to service the unit, decreasing down-
time.
Multitasking
EXCELLENT
The Samsung C9250ND enables users to program an unlimited number of copy jobs
while another copy job or a print job is in progress.
BLI technicians observed no slowdowns between copy jobs and print jobs or during
concurrent operations such as printing while scanning.
Unlike with most other devices, access to the control panel is not blocked while
pages are being scanned through the document feeder; users can program addi-
tional copy or scan jobs even while pages of the current job are still being scanned,
enhancing productivity.
— Settings from the previous job, such as quantity, are retained, rather than clearing
immediately. Consequently, users must press a key (“Close”) and then clear settings
to program the next job.
By default, jobs are processed on a first-in, first-out basis, but an administrator can
assign a priority level of from 1 (highest priority) to 16 (lowest priority) to the print or
copy functions.
An interrupt function enables users to interrupt a job in progress to produce a priority
job, with access to all features and functions; the interrupt job begins immediately (it
doesn’t wait for a set to complete).
The engine took a competitive 47.82 seconds to download the 15 print files used in
testing.
