5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Multi-Purpose Laser Printer, February 8, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Xerox Phaser 6250/DP Network Color Laser Printer with Duplexer (Office Product)
I needed to print some color materials... high quality... went to the local copy shop and the per page cost (2 sided) was over $2.50. Knowing I needed to print a thousand copies, I decided to look for printers! This printer does an excellent job for everyday printing, business graphics, and photographs. The consumables are about $0.15/page (Xerox says $0.08/page based on 7% coverage). The management tools bult in are top notch, and the power management keeps the machine ready without consuming too much power. The LAN connection makes it a perfect addition to our wireless household network.

Not reliable at all, November 28, 2004
This review is from: Xerox Phaser 6250/DP Network Color Laser Printer with Duplexer (Office Product)
I've owned this printer for 4 months now and it's broken down twice. The first time when the fuser broke down Xerox provided excellent service and talked me into purchasing the extended warrantee. Now the imaging unit is malfunctioning when it's only 1/2 used up, and it is impossible to get a new one anywhere, under warrantee or not, as they are backordered from the manufacturer until mid January. So I'm stuck with pink dots all up and down the side of every page I print until then. This is ridiculous with an expensive machine like this not to be able to obtain a basic consumable part for months. When it's working this printer does produce nice quality, but it's a pain because every time you want to change to a different paper type or size you have to push buttons on the panel on the printer as well as selecting your choices in the driver. Also the duplexer does not work out of Photoshop, which is what I do all my printing out of. If I had this to do over again I'd go with an HP instead - my old HP color laser which cost 1/4 of what this thing did is much more reliable.

If I had to eat a turd, I guess I'd choose the one that stinks the least., April 18, 2006
This review is from: Xerox Phaser 6250/DP Network Color Laser Printer with Duplexer (Office Product)
I support two Phaser 6250s, networked, in use by 75 users. I've amazingly never really had a problem with either of them.
With all the advances in computers, graphics, software, and hardware... why can't anyone make a printer that works, is easy to use, and won't need every part replaced after a year? And could someone please explain why EVERY printer requires it's own type of toner? Is the 6350 really that much different than the 6250? Why can't I just buy another reliable 6250 instead of chancing a 6350 and having to buy different toner?
My belief is that printer technology has not changed in over 20 years, the market is moved by who can create a new toner cartridge that won't fit in anyone else's printer.
