TORONTO, ON – High-quality colour is no longer off limits to budget-conscious small businesses and workgroups with the introduction of Xerox Corporation's Phaser 6140 colour laser printer.

Priced at $479, the Phaser 6140 produces vivid colour documents by pairing 600x600x4 dpi image resolution with Xerox's Emulsion Aggregate High Gloss (EA-HG) toner, which provides crisp text and uniform colour. A variety of tools such as Adobe PostScript 3, PANTONE colour-approved simulations and Xerox colour-correction technology are also included to help manage colour and ensure professional-looking colour prints.

"A small budget shouldn't mean you have to sacrifice making a big impression," said Ajay Dhingra, vice president, Canadian Reseller Operations, Xerox Canada. "The Phaser 6140 delivers show-stopping colour and performance at an affordable price."
With a paper capacity of 250 sheets and fast print speeds of 19 pages per minute (ppm) in colour and 21 ppm in black and white, the Phaser 6140 helps small offices produce high-quality colour documents quickly and reliably. The printer's compact design is ideal for businesses with limited space.

To boost worker productivity, the Phaser 6140 also includes:
•    Pre-installed toner that helps users get up and running right away. Gauges on the front panel indicate if there is enough toner to complete a large print job.
•    Optional features such as automatic two-sided printing, an additional 250-sheet paper tray and wireless network adaptor that allows users to build a printer that best suits their needs.
•    The Run Black feature that keeps the printer running in black toner, even if the colour toner needs to be replenished, ensuring users can keep printing. The printer also recognizes and automatically skips blank pages in a document, speeding up print time and reducing paper waste by up to 50 percent.
•    Compatibility with a variety of operating systems including Microsoft 7 and Mac OS X 10.6.

The Phaser 6140 is ENERGY STAR qualified and part of the Xerox Green World Alliance – a worldwide initiative to encourage customers to recycle or dispose of supplies in a manner that minimizes impact on the environment. The Phaser 6140 has additional features including a built-in toner system that creates up to 80 percent less waste than comparable colour laser printers and N-up printing, which enables users to print multiple pages onto one document.
