18 WorkCentre 5222 Evaluator Guide
Evaluate Cost Control
Cost of operation is one of the most important considerations when evaluating a multifunction device. Does the vendor provide the
tools necessary to control access to device functions by user? Are accounting tools available to help track and assign printing costs?
Does the vendor offer services to help you right-size your deployment?
Accounting Capabilities
Xerox provides multiple levels of accounting capabilities to give your organization the
control it needs for tracking and assigning costs. Xerox also provides tools to control
employee access to device features:
Internal Auditron• controls and tracks usage, and enables quota-setting for copy, print,
scan and fax activity by user or workgroup for analysis and billing purposes.
Xerox Standard Accounting (XSA)• builds on Internal Auditron by adding web-based
remote management.
Network Accounting• job-based accounting enables Xerox MFPs to integrate with third-
party accounting and billing solutions from Xerox Business Partners.
Foreign device interface• enables the addition of external third-party access and
accounting devices to the WorkCentre 5222, such as magnetic card readers or coin-
operation devices.
Assessment Options
Xerox can help decrease your organization’s overall document costs by optimizing and
right-sizing your technology deployment. Three levels of assessment tools and services are
available to help you deploy the equipment mix necessary to best serve the needs of your
environment:
LEVEL 1:• Xerox Office Efficiency Calculator — A five-minute, web-based “instant analy-
sis” offers suggestions regarding your organization’s technology needs by comparing
environment-specific information you enter against key industry metrics.
LEVEL 2:• Xerox Office Productivity Advisor (XOPA) — A more in-depth, web-based tool
for assessing your specific document environment. XOPA results suggest better ways to
manage page volume between printing, copying and faxing, delivering end-user satis-
faction and cost efficiency. XOPA is a free service performed by your local Xerox sales
representative.
LEVEL 3:• Xerox Office Document Assessment (ODA) — An analytical model that mea-
sures and analyzes your current document production infrastructure, the ODA provides
in-depth improvement plans for significant cost savings and increased efficiency. The
ODA is a Six-Sigma, fee-based tool and consultative service oriented more toward enter-
prise-level organizations.
