  Call 847-398-5212, Copier Printer Scanner Features - Terms and Accessories
  The copier printer all in one industry has changed over the past three years. What use to be options now comes standard accessories on many copier models. If you plan to lease a copier or purchase a copier printer all in one it's important to know the features and what you actually need for your office equipment. What is an ADF or DADF (automatic document feeder or double-sided automatic document feeder)? The ADF or DADF sits on the top of the copier printer scanner and gives you the ability to automatically feed a stack of papers to copy, fax out or scan to a computer. Some brands of copiers still call this an option. However, a machine never goes out the door without this. Usually the feeder allows up to 50 pages (some up to 100 pages) at one time; on your digital copier or multifunction printer.
  What does digital sorting mean on Canon, Sharp, Xerox and Ricoh Copiers (other brands too)? All brands of color copiers and multifunction copiers for the past 5 years provide digital sorting without using an external optional mailbox finisher. Digital sorting means each copy, print or fax job is "offset" from the previous one (shifted side to side or criss cross sorted). This feature does not limit the number of document sets your copier can sort. If you had an optional external copier mailbox finisher then you are limited to the number of slots. What is a duplex unit? The duplex unit gives your digital copier the ability to do two sided printing and copying. It's an option on some brands. However, the more recent models (3 years old or less) it's standard. On business class copiers (Canons, Sharp, Ricoh, Kyocera, Xerox and other models) you can do two sided to one side, one to two sided, two sided to one sided copying and printing using the menu keys.
  What are the paper Drawers options? All business class copier printer scanners; come usually with at least two paper drawers. The lower end personal copiers usually come with one drawer. Each paper drawer "cassette" handles several size papers from A4 up to 11 x 17. Most of the current models can handle sizes A4 to Legal. Most mid-range digital copier's drawers handle paper up to 11 x 17 size pages. Paper Cassette Drawer Options include: Additional paper drawers (feeders) up to 3,000 pages on some models of copiers. The typical optional copier paper drawers can handle anywhere from 250-550 sheets of paper. If you are using heavy paper stock you may need to use a bypass tray on your laser printer copier. Are the copier printers green by saving on electricity? Energy compliant power save mode is a standard feature on most recent model digital copier scanners. Due to pressure from governments, end user and marketing professionals, power save mode is here to stay. Basically the color copier printer will put itself in a lower power usage stage, waiting for printer copier jobs to process. Once it receives a job it powers back up quickly. This reduces electrical expenses and saves you money.
  Do all copier scanners come with the fax option? Usually this is an option not a standard copier scanner accessory. This copier all in one option gives you the ability to send and receive faxes. Plus, with most brands of photocopiers you get fax to email and fax to computers. If you have a network it will require the setting of mail boxes and installation of software of each computer. What are the security and client tracking or billing features? Lawyers are great at this. They charge their clients for every piece of paper produced on their printer copier scanner. One way they track the actual number of pages produced, is through the digital photocopiers security measures.
  Most machines have the ability to assign access codes. You can assign a copier access code, for each employee, client or department. Once setup, you have to input a security code before a job will print or copy on the all in one printers.
  At the end of the billing period just print an access report to get the total pages copied or printed by each access code. Not Sure What You need? Ask questions! If your sales person is all hype and no meat then go someplace else. Color printer copier features and options are designed for a specific purpose. Do not assume the digital copier scanner will do what you want. Ask for the specification sheet.
