Phaser 5550 Printer Review
Expert review of the Phaser 5550 printer
The Xerox Phaser 5550 is a great mono laser printer for medium-sized offices or workspaces. With a print speed of 50 ppm, standard paper capacity of 1,100 sheets and output capacity of 500 sheets, it can certainly handle a heavy workload and help keep workflows smooth and well oiled. This is a highly productive machine with a relatively small footprint that could fit in well in offices where productivity is paramount but space is at something of a premium.
Design
The Xerox Phaser 5550 measures 640 x 526 x 497 mm and weighs 41 kg. Featuring a subtle and unobtrusive colourway of off-white and petrol blue, it wouldn’t look out of place in the majority of offices and also has a small push button control panel and LCD display screen for ease of use and navigation.
Advantages
The main advantage of the Xerox Phaser 5550 is its speed and workload capabilities combined with its relatively low price point and footprint, making it a suitable option for smaller or mid-sized offices and companies. It also maintains low running costs throughout, meaning that you won’t be caught out later in the lifespan of this laser printer. With a warm-up time of 37 seconds and a first print speed of 6.5 seconds, plus a print resolution of 1200 x 1200 dpi, this really is a mono laser printer that delivers when it comes to speed, productivity and workload. It also features automatic duplex printing, which helps to cut down on running costs and reduces the overall environmental footprint of the printer and your workplace.
Disadvantages
It’s a shame that this printer doesn’t automatically come with wireless printing capabilities as most modern-day offices and workplaces require it. Mobile printing is also not an option here, which severely cuts down on the longevity of the printer’s worth in any modern office or workspace.
