Xerox has introduced a new wide format black-and-white digital printer, copier and scanner which features sharp image quality, speed, a compact footprint and low running costs. 

The new Xerox 6279 Wide Format Printer is ideal for large and complex engineering and architectural renderings, electrical diagrams and mechanical drawings which require precise detail, according to a statement.

The system is flexible enough to fit in a variety of environments, including commercial print shops and architectural, engineering and construction companies. Its speed – printing seven or nine 'D-size' (24' x 36') or A1 (594 x 841) prints per minute – make it one of the most productive products in its class, said the statement.
 
“We know that image quality is the number one concern of wide-format users with operating costs running a close second. The image quality and speed of the Xerox 6279 meet those requirements,” said Tim Gould, general manager, Global Services and Production, Xerox Middle East & Africa, DMO.

“The price is so affordable that users can take advantage of the 6279 system where it best fits their needs, whether it’s in a construction manager’s on-site trailer, a home office of an architectural firm or on the production floor of a neighbourhood print shop. It offers reliability that they can count on.”
 
The Xerox 6279 can simultaneously scan up to six images per second with its optional on-board scanner while printing. The 600 x 600 dpi printing and scanning capabilities deliver sharp, precise details even for complex plans, schematics and renderings. 

The system holds up to four rolls of bond paper, tracing paper or film for uninterrupted printing and media flexibility.

The optional on-board scanner or Wide Format Scan System allows reproduction of worn originals to be improved by suppressing the background, which may be damaged by wrinkles or water, and saving the important fine line details of text and images.-TradeArabia News Service
