WorkCentre 5222 Evaluator Guide 7
Evaluate Productivity
In addition to actual print engine speed, consider attributes that affect overall throughput. Are the copy, print, scan and fax features
powerful enough to support the demands of busy workgroups? Does the MFP include other capabilities to increase users’ productivity,
like expanded paper capacity and a Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) for processing originals? Does the MFP come ready
to connect to your network? Is the device appropriately sized for the entire workgroup? Does the MFP deliver the image quality users
require for high-quality business output? Does the MFP stay available for programming even while busy with other tasks? Can device
functions be monitored from a desktop and/or at the device?
Performance
The WorkCentre 5222 delivers fast output that quickly processes heavy workloads, with
speeds of up to 22 ppm. Multipage and double-sided copy, scan and fax jobs are quickly
processed with a 75-sheet DADF, which minimizes time spent feeding originals into the
device. A first-page-out time (FPOT) as fast as 4.3 seconds means less waiting for jobs
to begin.
Network Capabilities
Performance isn’t limited to raw document feeds and speeds. The WorkCentre 5222
utilizes a
Power PC 333 MHz network controller with 512 MB of memory and a 40 GB hard drive;
it’s built to process large, complex jobs. In addition, 10/100 Base-TX Ethernet connectivity
comes standard for high-speed network deployment.
The WorkCentre 5222 is network-friendly, as well. With RAM collation, files are sent over
the network just once, no matter how many sets are printed. Job pipelining optimizes
system performance by allowing the device to process print jobs even if the print engine
is busy with an earlier job.
Image Quality
With up to 600 x 600 dpi copy resolution and up to 1200 x 1200 dpi print resolution, the
WorkCentre 5222 generates high-quality copies and prints with crisp text and images.
Plus, Xerox Emulsion Aggregation High Grade (EA-HG) toner — chemically grown to
produce smaller, more uniformly sized particles — delivers excellent shadowing and out-
standing fine-line detail.
The WorkCentre 5222 also features multiple page description languages (PDLs), including
emulations for PCL
®
5e and PCL
®
6, and optional Adobe
®
PostScript
®
3™.
Concurrency
The WorkCentre 5222 device’s network controller helps prevent device bottlenecks. Scan and
fax jobs can be programmed and executed without waiting for the print engine to become
available, while newly programmed copy jobs will join the job queue and be executed
when
earlier jobs are completed. By keeping the front panel available for programming while the
print
engine is busy, users can stay productive and avoid idle time waiting for the MFP.
Monitoring System Status
With the WorkCentre 5222, up-to-date information on every processed job — print,
copy, scan, email or fax — plus in-depth device information, is always at users’ fingertips.
Whether at the device or from a desktop, documents and jobs can be managed through
an integrated job queue with a few mouse-clicks or button pushes.
