multifunction printer exceeds the
versatility requirement:
Print features
At its core, the WorkCentre 6400
multifunction printer is a high-
performance network printer capable of
handling the color and black-and-white
printing workload of busy offices and
workgroups. Print speeds as fast as 32
pages per minute (ppm) for color, 37 ppm
for black-and-white, first-page-out time as
fast as 16 seconds and automatic two-

The WorkCentre 6400 multifunction
printer’s strong performance is backed by
a set of printing features that include:
•
N-up:
saves paper by printing multiple
pages onto each sheet
•
Print Around:
holds a problem job that
needs resources (such as a different
paper size) and prints the next job in
the queue
•
Secure/delayed print:
print jobs are held
in memory until a PIN code is entered at
the front panel, ensuring prints are not
left unattended at the MFP
•
Sample set:
allows users to proof a
sample document before printing
entire job
•
Booklet creation:
formats and arranges
pages for folding as booklet
•
Print to and from hard drive:
store
frequently accessed documents on the
MFP for fast reprinting at the device
•
Watermarks:
adds custom watermarks,
such as “DRAFT” or “CONFIDENTIAL,” to
printed documents
Copy features
As with printing, the WorkCentre 6400
multifunction printer is a high-
performance color and black-and-white
copier for busy offices and workgroups.
With copy speeds as fast as 32 ppm for
color and 37 ppm for black-and-white,
first-copy-out time as fast as 16 seconds
and automatic double-sided copying of
double-sided originals (via the DADF),
the WorkCentre 6400 multifunction
printer delivers high-end productivity in
a desktop device.
The WorkCentre 6400 features standard print,
copy and scan functionality.
How many functions can the device perform?
Does the integration of multiple
functions into a single device result in the MFP sacrificing important capabilities, such
as print or copy performance? Does MFP deliver a level of all-around performance that
will enable the replacement of multiple devices on your network? Does the MFP include
support for the types of media users utilize on a regular basis?
