The Xerox Phaser 3450 printer is a monochrome laser printer using Xerox Phaser 3450 cartridges that is a great choice for small offices or even for home printing.

Print speed is up to 25 pages printed per minute and it can get your first page out in less than 12 seconds.

It comes standard with one 500 sheet paper tray and one 100 sheet paper tray. There is also a feeder you can opt for that holds an additional 500 sheets. All of this enables you to wait longer before you have to get up to add paper. Feeder and trays can all handle letter-sized paper, legal paper, bond, light card stock and transparencies. The paper trays can also work with labels and envelopes.

By upgrading to the D or DN model of the Phaser 3450, you will be able to print two-sided documents automatically.

To replace the printer toner cartridge is easy. You have a choice of either a standard or a high output cartridge. The standard one will output approximately 5,000 pages before running out while the high output one can double this for approximately 10,000 pages.

Another way to save toner and money is by choosing a lower print quality. You have a choice between the Xerox Phaser cartridges saver mode of 300 dpi, the standard quality of 600 dpi or the high quality of 1,200 dpi.

If you need more information, there is further documentation on the company website where you can also reach live tech support. Telephone technical support is available as well.

The Phaser 3450 has a compact design, if not lightweight. You can move it fairly easily from one place to another if you need to do so. If you do not have the network ready model, this may end up being an added benefit.

For larger workgroups, this may not be the best choice printer. There are others that have faster output, for example. But for a smaller workgroup or for home printing, it is a great opportunity to get quality as good as the big guys for a lot less.

This quality comes, of course, from the Phaser 3450 replacement toner. This company knows printing and offer Xerox Phaser toners of a consistently high quality. Good toner cartridges is what shows up on your page and what your clients see.
