Competitive Face-off Xerox WorkCentre 4260 vs. Samsung SCX-6555N
The WorkCentre 4260 and Samsung SCX-6555N share the same print engine and have similar specifications, but the WorkCentre 4260 offers key ease-of-use features that enable workgroups to achieve more in less time.
The WorkCentre 4260 advantages:
Superior productivity Greater ease-of-use Better scanning Xerox Total Satisfaction Guarantee
Smaller scan files mean greater office productivity
The WorkCentre 4260 incorporates advanced compression technology that greatly reduces scan file sizes without affecting image quality. This file-size advantage means users can create and distribute high-resolution scanned images that contain both text and graphical elements without consuming excessive network bandwidth. By contrast, the Samsung device lacks the ability to adequately compress a scanned image, resulting in greater strain on network bandwidth.

More efficient scan-to-email
Scan-to-email is an essential office feature that streamlines hardcopy document conversion into electronic files for rapid archiving or widespread distribution. The WorkCentre 4260 helps users accomplish this faster and easier than with the Samsung SCX-6555N device because scan to email is located on the home screen and the local address book is populated with names (instead of being forced to search as with the SCX-6555N.) And common scan file settings are available on the main email screen (color output, 2-sided, original type, and resolution) enabling WorkCentre 4260 users to remain productive while Samsung users are still searching through the touch screens.

Scan templates

The WorkCentre 4260 supports scan templates that enable users to scan images to predefined locations. Setup requires little time and effort using CentreWare Internet Services. By contrast, the Samsung SCX-6555N does not support templates and requires additional software for Scan to PC.

More intuitive print driver
The WorkCentre 4260 print driver employs an industry standard user interface with commonly used features located on the home window. This allows users to easily control their document output and view printer status. And, because LAN faxing is available with the same familiar driver, users can remain productive. By contrast, the Samsung device requires two separate drivers one for printing and another for LAN faxing. This means users will have to go through two separate driver installations and become familiar with two drivers. And considering that the Samsung driver installation takes more than six minutes longer than with the WorkCentre 4260, user productivity will be further impacted.

Better watermark support

The WorkCentre 4260 print driver gives users powerful watermark control, allowing custom text, time stamps and images. Although the Samsung SCX-6555N has a custom watermark feature, it is limited to text with little positioning ability.

More intuitive color touch screen
The WorkCentre 4260 and Samsung SCX-6555N both feature a 7-inch color touch screen, but thats where the similarities end. The WorkCentre 4260 presents commonly used features on the main screen so performing routine tasks can be accomplished much easier than with the Samsung device, which requires searching through numerous menu levels. For example, to perform an ID Card Copy on the Samsung device, users must first access the Copy menu, choose the Advanced tab and then ID copy, whereas WorkCentre 4260 users can complete this task with one simple touch from the home screen.

Better service and support
Behind the WorkCentre 4260 is a large network of customer support thats unrivaled in the industry and available when users need it. Xerox service professionals use leading-edge technologies to keep users up and running, whether they have a desktop product or high-end production equipment. And, like all Phaser products, the WorkCentre 4260 includes the exclusive Xerox Total Satisfaction Guarantee. Recognized as unique in the industry, the Xerox Total Satisfaction Guarantee covers every WorkCentre 4260 that has been continuously maintained by Xerox or its authorized representatives under a Xerox express warranty or Xerox Maintenance agreement.
