Xerox WorkCentre 6515dni A4 28ppm Wireless Colour Multifunction LED / Laser Printer with Duplex printing

Wow, this product seems to polarise opinions. Well, I've had it for a couple of weeks now, so can't speak for long-term reliability, but I wanted to give a quick opinion on the installation gripes that some have experienced... Carrying the beast up my narrow staircase wasn't easy, but once I had it in position, I really must say that it was super-easy to install. I'm saying this with a reasonable amount of IT knowledge... I don't work in IT, but I'm aware, if that makes sense. I guess the trickiest thing for me to try to get right was getting the path to my NAS storage right, so that I could scan documents onto it. Well, it was honestly really easy. I knew my passwords, and the IP address of the NAS, and that was that. Now the computers I have in the house can open the scans folder and find anything that's been scanned. Speaking of scanning, the speed is incredible! That the scanner can scan both sides of a document in the feeder at once is, frankly, amazing. Sure, the toner cartridges you get don't have a massive capacity, but so far, I have to say I'm amazed that they're able to sell this printer for just over £300. Amazing! December 2021 Update I’ve owned this printer/scanner for around 18 months now, and am still delighted with it. I’m on my fourth set of non-Xerox branded toner cartridges, which work really well, and I don’t think I’ve had a single paper jam. One thing I noticed - and countless others experienced this too - was a high-pitched whine from a capacitor whenever the printer went into power saving mode. It was getting pretty irritating, but over time has faded away, to the point that it’s no longer audible at all (I heard stories of other people having power supply units replaced by engineers). So, I’m still absolutely delighted, and still absolutely amazed at the price. August 2023 Update I didn’t use the printer for a number of months over a winter, where it sat in a room that wasn’t heated. Perhaps because of this, it now occasionally prints pages that are completely useless, with the toner either banding on the page, or big ‘smudged’ sections. I suspect it’s my own fault, but it is only occasional, and I still think the printer represents great value.

I bought this printer for my home office to replace a SOHO colour inkjet. This printer is for a bigger office, not for SOHO. It works brilliantly for me, but I expected a similar size like my previous printers and was surprised. Should have checked the dimensions first. This printer is much taller and really heavy. If you are thinking to buy it, find the size and weight on the product details page, and check if it will fit. I had to place it somewhere else, not where my old printer used to sit,. Printing is like in most lasers, quick, quiet, nice and smooth. For some reasons, the product detail page does not tell you all the nice features. Here are some points I did not know: Scanning is better than what I expected. It scans both sides of a page in one go. I did not expect that. Scanning is much quicker this way, obviously. Toner cartridges, drums can be replaced independently. PostScript support - I use Linux, wife uses a Mac, with PostScript there is no problem with driver support. Negative things: After power-up, booting takes a while. Not extremely long, but noticeably longer than all other printers I had. There are a few settings that are well hidden. After power on, it prints a page. This can be disabled, but it's not easy to find where. On the plus side, when I emailed Xerox support, the next day they answered and told me what to change and where. Like I wrote, I think this printer was not designed with home offices and small offices in mind. I think it is not meant to be switched off - eliminating the long wait for the startup and the configuration page printing. Also, there are some features (like sending scanned documents in email), which require settings that will probably baffle people who had SOHO printers before. I can set up my own mail server so I am OK with that, but if you are not computer savvy and you don't have an IT guy in the office where this printer will sit, you will not be able to use every advanced feature.

Things you need to know: If you're an Android user then the Mopria Print and Scan apps are great. Mopria is an alliance of the big printer manufacturers to provide 'universal standards' and it makes using the print and scan facilities easy. They give you printing and scanning from your smart phone. Not sure what you do if you're an iOS user? The wireless connection is good for printing and also supports scanning from a PC using Xerox software.. The Mopria app also works well. I haven't yet investigated other options such as 'scan to desktop'. The printer can be setup to scan to your Gmail account, but again it's fiddly. If using wifi then then the primary connection on the printer needs to be set up as 'WiFi' on the printer. Your Gmail account will also need to be setup with two factor authentication and then a 'less secure app' password can be generated (from your Google account) especially for the printer. The printer automatically prints on two sides if wanted. The scanner feeder will scan both sides if wanted. The 2 to 2 sided scanning and printing facility is great for the money. The admin password for Xerox printers is '1111', but for first time use you need to use the printer S/N instead. Restart the printer and use the S/N. Another GOTCHA! Overall a great printer for the money once setup up, but a few hurdles on the way. 7 months down the line and the printer is still working well with no connectivity issues.

Prints great when it works but has awful loud coil whine when in standby so have to keep switched off or put in another room that you are not workng in. This is due to a known design flaw in one of main printer motherboard components that Xerox wont fix as they have no new replacement board. Printer really super heavy and hard to join to wifi sometimes and drops out off network often. Scanning function to make pdfs to send to your email server like gmail virtually impossible to get working and poor US based support to help fix anything. For overall spec it should be a lot better but if can pick up a cheap returned one for 200 quid it may be worth it as it does have a lot of features if you can love with some of its clear flaws

The 6515DNI is a great printer but a pig to configure. It seems to be an SME printer with full-blown corporate software designed to be configured by the IT department. I'm no novice - I understand networks and have built my own PCs - but even I struggled. The PC drivers are also difficult to set up as it needs an application as well as a regular driver. The printer is big but seems robust. I bought it as a home printer, as I'd had a previous single-sided Xerox colour laser that had lasted well. Whatever you do, don't make my mistake & change the default password and forget to write it down. I remembered it repeatedly, for days and days while slowly getting the config right then, when I needed to log in weeks l later, it had gone. This was during lockdown & Xerox were able to help me out with a reset code but I gather this is normally a process that needs an engineer callout.

Was aware of various negative reviews concerning issues with the scanner unit. They appear to suggest, these issues are caused by a firmware update, so have taken the decision not to update the firmware and had no issues to date. The printer is now a discontinued product by Xerox, but it's age does have the significant advantage that cheap compatible toner cartridges are available. I object to paying more for toners, than for the printer. Print quality is very good and setup was relatively easy. The few issues being solved by Google searches for solutions. It is early days yet, but so far, more than happy with the purchase.

Im very happy with the printer but it does stop working on and off .Xerox only proivides one year customer support and after that you are pretty much on your own or they insist you buy a full set of toner to be covered which cost the same as the printer .thats a bity of a rip off .Wish Xerox has a better custiomer service .

Tired of changing cartridges every time I wanted to print with an inkjet, decided to go with this printer. I used it to print anything, from documents to pictures. Pictures, even in glossy paper are not as bright as an inkjet, but are good enough. Had a little issue with a high pitching noise at the beginning, contacted the seller and he sorted out a Xerox engineer that came to my house and fixed it onsite. A little bit bulky, but worth every penny

Nach einer scheinbar endlosen Odyssee an Multi Funktionsdruckern (Epson Tintenstrahl, Samsung Laser, Brother Laser) bin ich nun durch Zufall beim Xerox WorkCentre 6515 DNI gestoßen, testen kann ja mal nicht schaden dachte ich nachdem der 4. Epson gestreikt hat, und was soll ich sagen, ich bin begeistert. Satte, klare Ausdrucke in Farbe und SW selbst auf stinknormalen 80g noname Kopierpapier sah ein Fotodruck erstaunlich gut aus, der Drucker haut die erste Seite schneller raus als ich Ihn erreichen kann, ist dabei recht leise obendrein und alle nötigen Einrichtungen sind von vorne erreichbar (aus Platzgründen notwendig) Geliefert wird im Grunde ein 6515DN mit einem Wifi Modul zum anstecken, das erste Setup geht sehr schnell, auch wenn der Drucker dauernd neu starten möchte. Sobald er mit dem NEtzwerk verbunden ist geht es aber alles schön über das Webg Interface, und nach kurzem Gebrauch der Internetsuche kennt man auch das Standard Admin Password "1111" warum steht das nicht in der Anleitung?? Aber alles in allem ein gelungenes Stück Technik. Ein kleiner Wermutstropfen sind die kurzen 12 Monate Garantie. Ich werde berichten sollte ich etwas negatives finden :)

J'ai utilisé à titre personnel et professionnel différentes imprimantes laser, samsung, canon, HP, etc. Honnêtement, les Xérox sont assez connues chez les pros, mais pas vraiment chez les particuliers. Pourtant ce sont de super imprimantes. Celle-ci en particulier a une qualité d'impression splendide en N&B et en couleur, texte et photos. Le fait que ce soit un tout-en-un la rend ultra pratique pour les particuliers, les TPE et les PME. Le scanner double face par bac de chargement, c'est juste génial. Ce modèle particulier 6515 avec module airprint/google print est ultra pratique. Sur PC le driver est super bien fait. Sur mac c'est bien simple: elle est reconnue d'emblée et tout fonctionne. Donc sortie de la boîte si vous avez déjà installé une imprimante vous serez opérationnel. Si vous êtes super doué, l'épais manuel PDF vous permet de tout ajuster à vos préférences (choisir les dossiers pour scanner etc.). Bref, c'est juste une perle méconnue. Ressort très peu dans les comparatifs de presse spécialisés alors que c'est une excellente tout-en-un qui ne sacrifie pas la qualité d'impression sur l'autel des fonctionnalités. Les toners xerox ou compatibles sont de prix raisonnable. Livré parfaitement emballée. Prend la place standard d'une imprimante laser de taille moyenne. Si vous vous posez la question, allez-y les yeux fermés, excellente acquisition.

LATI POSITIVI: è velocissima nella scansione e nella stampa sia solo fronte che fronte/retro, si installa molto facilmente su Mac con Sierra scaricando i driver dal sito Xerox, viene subito rilevata dalla rete WiFi e dai dispositivi ad essa connessi, stampa a colori di buona qualità, scansioni nitide in brevissimo tempo con fronte/retro in un solo passaggio, si può stampare con cellulare Samsung e iPhone (provata con S6 Edge "sia con l'applicazione della Xerox che con Samsung Print" e iPhone 7). LATI NEGATIVI: non esistono driver compatibili per Ubuntu (ho dovuto installare i driver di una stampante simile senza quindi avere disponibili tutte le funzioni), difficilissimo impostare la scansione su eMail (talmente difficile che non c'è riuscito neanche il tecnico della Xerox in controllo remoto mi ha detto che è un modello nuovo e che ancora non la conoscono bene), per la funzione "scansione su eMail" ho dovuto creare un indirizzo di posta elettronica su google e impostare l'account su (consenti l'accesso a "App meno sicure") di conseguenza ogni file che viene scansionato con questa funzione passa da quell'account, non funziona NFC ho provato in tutti i modi, con Galaxy S3 e con S6 Edge, ma niente sembra inesistente, troppo complicate tutte le impostazioni di rete (bisogna avere buone conoscenze di rete per impostarla). CONCLUSIONI: Ho dato quattro stelle perché è veramente difficile da impostare e perché, a causa della difficoltà di impostazione, non sono riuscito ad utilizzare tutte le funzioni disponibili, ne meriterebbe cinque piene per la velocità e per la qualità di stampa e di scansione davvero impressionante anche il brevissimo tempo per la stampa del primo foglio. P.S. il centro assistenza non risponde se non inserite il nr. di serie della macchina dopo aver digitato il numero di telefono "mi hanno agganciato la linea per tre volte poi quando ho inserito il nr. di serie mi hanno risposto subito e sono stati molto gentili".

Con respecto a la impresora, me ha gustado mucho la calidad y rapidez de impresión, la posibilidad de escanear de manera remota desde varios ordenadores conectados en wifi y la facilidad de configuración, si tienes en cuenta que desde windows 10 y con su aplicación puedes entrar fácilmente en los submenus de configuración para por ejemplo eliminar la hoja con las características de impresión cada vez que enciendes la impresora, el pino de Administrador que es el número de serie de la impresora y más parametros, aun sigo con la configuración para exprimir le todo su rendimiento, único punto negativo la empresa de transporte que tardó más tiempo del que indicó sin dar además opción de hacer un seguimiento del pedido. Un 10 al vendedor que mantuvo el contacto informando de lo que ocurría. Producto bien embalado

Stampa e scannerizza bene e velocemente. Consiglio l'installazione tramite Xerox Smart Start su Windows, e l'uso delle app Mopria per telefonino Android. Essendo un prodotto da ufficio, il setup completo non è proprio alla portata di tutti: è necessario aggiornare il firmware e leggere il manuale, e le impostazioni sono spesso anti-intuitive o annidate in menu inaspettati. In compenso, si può usare facilmente da PC tramite cavo USB, da telefonino con app Mopria, oppure direttamente con una chiavetta USB. Pro: - Funzionalità completa, difficile chiedere di più ad una stampante multifunzione. - Stampa di qualità, a colori e in bianco e nero. - Si accende in 40 secondi (rapido rispetto per esempio ad HP 2605 e HP CP5225). - Stampa a colori immediata per lavori semplici, 40 secondi per fotografie. - Generosa quantità di RAM, circa 10 volte quella di prodotti simili nella stessa fascia di prezzo. - Estremamente facile da installare su Windows, grazie a Xerox Smart Start. - Estremamente facile da usare da telefonino con le app Mopria per stampa e scansione. - L'OCR (riconoscimento testuale) integrato nello scanner è una vera pacchia, non riesco più a farne a meno. - Scansione da qualsiasi programma per PC tramite i driver TWAIN/WIA, oppure scansione automatica su email, shared folder, ftp, sftp o chiavetta USB. - È un prodotto da ufficio, completo e complesso, ma può essere usato anche da chiunque (ad un livello base) tramite cavo USB, chiavetta USB, o dal telefonino. Contro: - Dimensioni e peso ragguardevoli. - Plastiche traballanti e dall'aspetto poco solido (rispetto per esempio ad HP 2605 e HP CP5225). - In Xerox Smart Start bisogna scegliere la modalità avanzata, altrimenti non viene installata la funzione fronte-retro! - Come prima cosa è necessario effettuare l'aggiornamento all'ultima versione del firmware: elimina bug (es. risoluzione DNS) e aggiunge funzionalità (es. stampa via web). - Non si spegne completamente: anche da spenta rimane acceso qualche LED con il relativo (minuscolo) consumo. - Interfaccia web dall'aspetto user-friendly ma poco intuitiva: avrei preferito un'interfaccia più "seria", completa e razionale. - Quasi ogni modifica alle impostazioni richiede il riavvio: un minuto e passa di attesa, dopo di che bisogna ricaricare il browser e rieffettuare il login. - Si può stampare direttamente da interfaccia web, ma non è dato scegliere opzioni essenziali quali fronte/retro. - Il setup di alcune funzionalità è davvero complesso e anti-intuitivo, a dispetto dell'approccio user-friendly. Per esempio, ho dovuto abilitare l'https per poter raggiungere Google Cloud Print. - Nel corso della configurazione si può incappare in errori misteriosi, assolutamente privi di dettagli o suggerimenti su come proseguire: bisogna essere esperti di informatica o grandi smanettoni! - L'OCR non si può attivare o disattivare di volta in volta, da pannello di controllo. - Non si possono creare shortcut che facciano scansione ed invio con un bottone solo, sono necessari almeno tre touch. Aggiornamento: dopo poco più di due anni di tranquillo uso casalingo, è apparso l'errore 062-380 che inibisce tutte le funzionalità dello scanner, sia piano che tramite alimentatore di documenti. Ho letto su Internet che qualcuno ha risolto il problema pulendo accuratamente lo scanner, ma nel mio caso non c'è stato verso. Ero anche disposto a spendere per ripararlo, ma il preventivo per la riparazione fuori garanzia è di 439 euro!
