WORKCENTRE 7346 EVAlUATOR GUIDE

In addition to actual print engine speed, consider the things that affect overall throughput. Are the scanning

and faxing features powerful enough to support your busy departments? What is the warm-up wait time?

Is the device appropriately sized for the entire workgroup? Can features be used at the same time, or are 

employees forced to wait for the device to become “free”? Is the system designed to minimize network 

traffic? Can you monitor the device functions from your desktop and/or at the device?

The productivity of the WorkCentre 7346 multifunction printer delivers output speeds of up to 45

ppm black-and-white/40 ppm color. Document scanning speed is notable as well, with a 75-sheet

duplex automatic document feeder (DADF) that scans single- and double-sided documents at 50 ipm

black-and-white and 45 ipm color. With a black-and-white first-page-out time as fast as 4.8 seconds

and a color first-page-out time as fast as 6.7 seconds, you won’t have to wait long for your copy jobs

either. The WorkCentre 7346 multifunction printer also features fast warm-up times of 30 seconds

from low power mode and 45 seconds from cold start.

Performance isn’t limited to raw document feeds and speeds. The WorkCentre 7346 multifunction

printer’s network controller utilizes a 667 MHz processor with 1.5 GB of memory and a minimum

40 GB hard drive standard — it’s ready and able to process your large, complex print and scan jobs.

In addition, 10/100Base-TX Ethernet connectivity comes standard for shared network printing, and

optional adapters for 10Base2, 10Base5, 802.11b wireless Ethernet, and USB ensure you can connect

the WorkCentre 7346 multifunction printer to your company’s specific needs.

The WorkCentre 7346 multifunction printer is easy on your network as well. With RAM collation,

files are sent over the network just once no matter how many sets are printed. Job pipelining allows

the MFP to process print jobs even if the print engine is busy with an earlier print job — thus opti-

mizing system performance by avoiding delays during job processing.

With 600 x 600 dpi copy resolution and 1200 x 1200 dpi print resolution, the WorkCentre 7346

multifunction printer generates high-quality copies and prints with crisp text and images. The Work-

Centre 7346 multifunction printer utilizes a number of advanced imaging technologies to deliver fast,

reliable, high-quality output, including:

• Xerox Emulsion Aggregate (EA) toner — this chemically grown toner technology features

smaller, more uniformly sized particles for excellent shadow detail, vibrant colors, consistent

color accuracy, and crisp fine-line detail.

• Trickle Charge Development — a Xerox-exclusive technology that maintains print  

consistency throughout the workday by feeding a mixture of developer and toner to the  

print engine, helping avoid eleventh-hour print-quality issues.

• Intermediate Belt Transfer with Micro Tandem Engine — provides the speed and efficiency

of single-pass color with consistent image transfers, fewer paper jams, and increased uptime.

• Belt Nip Fusing — instead of conventional roller-to-roller contact, Belt Nip Fusing uses

a flexible surface contact area that allows toner to better adhere to the media, delivering

improved image transfer and registration.

Xerox also delivers multiple page description languages (PDLs) to ensure your printed output meets

your high expectations, with Adobe
