Review

A printer in an office is about as common as a computer, stapler or folder. 

They are one of the foundational elements of any traditional work setting, which means, just like your computer, you need to get the right one in place to ensure optimal efficiency. 

The Xerox C310, the printer we will be reviewing today, could be a fit for you if you’re a small-to-medium-sized workgroup that needs a machine that can handle a workload of up to 6,000 pages per month. 

But you won’t know for sure until you properly educate yourself on everything you need to know about the machine. 

The Xerox C230 could be a fit for you if you’re a small-to-medium-sized business or need a printer for your home office. 

Before deciding whether it’s the right fit for you, though, you must first educate yourself about the features, pros, cons and cost of the machine. 

Even though the Xerox C230 is inexpensive compared to larger printers, you still need to make sure it will satisfy all your printing requirements before buying. 

As a Xerox Platinum Status Partner, we are experts in their products—and as such, regularly make reviews of their machines. 

No matter where your work—in an office, remote or in a hybrid role—you will likely need to print documents at some point. 

For most of us, it’s a commonality we all share in our careers: We need access to a printer to execute our basic document processes.  

But which printer do you get? Does it matter what brand or model you buy? 

Even for home offices or personal printing, buying the right printer is crucial to avoiding service issues, having to undergo constant supply changes or having to replace your printer with another one if you realize that the previous one just isn’t living up to expectations. 

Are you in need of a small printer to conduct your basic office tasks?  

The Xerox B235, the all-in-one printer we will be reviewing today, could be a fit for you. But in order to know for sure, you need access to the right information. 

It can be difficult to find accurate information in the printer/copier industry, and too often, this lack of information leads to you, the consumer, purchasing a machine that is inadequate for your printing needs.  

This can directly lead to lost money and frustration as you are forced, once again, to look online for another printer.  

What should you look for in a basic office printer? 

If you’re looking at a machine that will sufficiently perform only the basic functions of a printer, you’re not going to be paying a lot of money for it. 

For example, the machine we will be covering today, the Xerox B225 multifunction (print, copy, scan, fax) printer, starts at around $300. 

That is a price that most companies can afford. But we’ve learned over our almost four decades in the printer/copier industry that buying a machine just because the cost is cheap can bring serious consequences.
