10 Xerox WorkCentre 4260 Evaluator Guide

Ease of Installation

Easy installation starts with unpacking the MFP and ends when it’s powered up, con-

nected to your network, and ready to use. The WorkCentre 4260 includes a quick install

guide that walks you through the installation of optional accessories, connecting the MFP

to a single computer or to the network, connecting to a power source, and initial start-up.

Settings such as language selection and feature setup are completed either at the MFP’s

intuitive front panel, or via the use of included remote management software.

Ease of Management

The WorkCentre 4260 eases network management chores with CentreWare

®

Internet

Services, an embedded web server that greatly simplifies remote device monitoring and

troubleshooting; CentreWare Web for remote management of device fleets; and built-in

support for numerous third-party management systems. Automatic email alerts notify

administrators or users of events that require attention, such as low toner levels.
Plus, Xerox Standard Accounting further extends the WorkCentre 4260 multifunction

device’s remote management capabilities by allowing in-depth control over quota setting,

output limits and reporting.

Ease of Use

The WorkCentre 4260 multifunction device’s cutting-edge, 7-inch, icon-based, full-color

touch screen redefines walk-up ease-of-use. Whether printing, copying, scanning, faxing or

emailing, the bright, colorful display guides users from start to finish with large, clear, eas-

ily recognizable icons. Once a feature is selected, the tab-based interface gives users fast

access to the most commonly-accessed features with intuitive navigation to advanced

settings. Buttons to the left of the color screen give single-click access to the feature-

selection screen, the default feature screen (usually copy), job status and machine status.

Buttons to the right of the screen include an alpha-numeric keypad, Log In/Out and Help.
Similar to the local user interface, the WorkCentre 4260 print drivers give quick, easy

access to the most commonly used features like two-sided printing, paper tray selection,

and collation.

Evaluate Ease of Installation, Management and Use

Installing a multifunction device can be challenging, whether an IT staff handles deployment in a larger organization or if the MFP is

being installed in a smaller office with no IT resources. The process isn’t limited to physically placing the unit in its new environment,

but also may include integration with an existing network infrastructure. Evaluate the management tools delivered with the MFP, and

whether they will ease the task of managing the device. Lastly, think about ease of use. Is the device simple to operate, and will users

quickly feel comfortable with it? Are the user interfaces, both the front panel and print driver, well designed and easy to navigate?
