The workhorse that never disappoints Talk about under promise and over deliver! Anybody that needs a business quality printer should consider this. It runs and runs, efficiently and quickly. I don't think there is anything better on the market for a small business that requires substantial quantities. The ease of use and color quality of the dry ink technology leaves those ink jets in the dust. This is my second 8560. 25 October 2011
Very Dependable Printer We have had this as our main printer for over 3 years. The only minor problem we have had is that the dispay on the printer started to fail and was out of warranty. Xerox sent us the necessary part and directions on how to replace this at NO CHARGE. The printer has never failed to print and the print colors are excellent. We print photographs of the furniture we sell and they are always true to the colors they represent. We tried generic ink once and immediately went back to the Xerox ink because of the much better color on the OE ink. I would recomend a Xerox printer to anyone in the market for a reasonably priced, dependable printer that produces great quality prints. 02 March 2011
Too Good to Have Just One My company has owned six of these printers over the years, and we currently have four in use. For the price per page you can't beat this printer's quality and speed. We use them for everything from printing high volume office jobs for our wholesale division to printing full color brochures and signs for use at our retail garden centers. These printers also stand up well to abuse. One of our Phaser 8560s is in a production area where is exposed to high levels of dust, but it has worked perfectly since we installed it two years ago. 02 March 2011
This product has great features ! Hi, I want to know about a page, after i turn on my printer - Xerox Phaser 8560DN - print unnecessarily, a sheet of paper with colored comics, consuming too much wax cartridge. Some technicians were already in place and the problem was partially solved, because the 3 printouts, now only one is printed, which has already been a progress :-). I would like to know how to prevent this impression permanently. Thanks anticipate, Luis Ribeiro 16 December 2011
Troublesome and inconsistent There are two series of firmware for this device. Why? I have no idea. The firmware seems to get corrupt after awhile for no apparent reason and Xerox has to come to rewrite it. There seems to be a memory leak as after two weeks to two months of printing (depends on how heavily it is used) larger jobs get an error page printed instead of the job. Cycling the power clears the symptom as reprinting the same job finally works. Drivers seem to get corrupt randomly and we have to delete them from the PC via Printers / Server Properties / Drivers and reinstall from the print server to fix. Not happy. Also, one must print the cleaning page frequently as blotches appear at inopportune times. 02 November 2011
Ink has to heat up At first it seemed to take a looooooong time before anything happened on this MFP, but now that we know that the solid ink has to melt first, we know what to expect. And, of course, we loooooove the print quality. Beautiful! 31 October 2011
Good print quality but definite flaws with machine This machine has good print quality and I like the variety of materials that can be printed, but it jams a lot when you try to run thicker stock through it. 31 October 2011
Very good qualilty It prints excellent quality pictures, though it is little slow.Also I think it is little hard to maintain it. If the printer comes up with an error message, after clearing that message usually it continues to print just fine, even if the message suggests that there is something to be done. Going to the service mode is the way of clearing errors but it is tricky for a regular user to get there. In other words, it is not for non-technical users - they would have to call a service rep every time printer comes up with an error. message 29 October 2011
