Fuji Xerox has chosen to avoid that feature and has, instead, given the usual USB 2.0 and Ethernet connectivity options.

The one we reviewed in October last year was Fuji Xerox DocuPrint CM405DF while the one reviewed in December was Fuji Xerox DocuPrint M465AP.

Now, if you follow the Office Hacks blog from Inkjet Wholesale, you wouldve noticed that weve been reviewing A3 devices nowadays.

So, it is time for us to delve deep into one of the more popular A3 offerings from this Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) the Fuji Xerox DocuCentre SC2020.

It is a low-cost A3 printer that is aimed at both, the Small Office Home Office (SOHO) segment and the Small to Medium-scale Enterprise (SME) segment.

The device was launched in 2014 amidst a lot of fanfare simply because it was the first effort from Fuji Xerox to cater to smaller businesses.

For your benefit, here is our Fuji Xerox DocuCentre SC2020 review.

This technology is based on another technology from Fuji Xerox called the Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser.

What this technology does is that it makes the print head more efficient by ensuring that the emitted light volume is increased through controlling and focusing techniques.

The direct result of this isnt just better efficiency but higher resolution and better output quality.

Moreover, these improvements dont come at a cost either because energy consumption is kept to a minimum by this technology.

The Fuji Xerox DocuCentre SC2020 is formally rated to print at 2400 x 1200 dots per inch (dpi).

It is also important to note that you can get this heightened output quality without compromising on volumes.

The Fuji Xerox DocuCentre SC2020 is as supportive of high volume printers as it is of high-quality printers.

The standard variant of this device comes with a total paper capacity of 330 sheets which is divided between the 250-sheet primary tray and the 80-sheet bypass tray.

There is another way through which the Fuji Xerox DocuCentre SC2020 supports high volume printing and that is by offering tremendous continuous printing capacity of up to 999 pages per job.

The Fuji Xerox DocuCentre SC2020 is rated to print at 20 pages per minute (ppm), regardless of whether you print monochrome or colour sheets.

In terms of scanning, the device will be able to scan a monochrome sheet at the rate of 24 images per minute (ipm) while it will take be able to scan 19 colour images in a minute.

Instead, the OEM has managed to fit all the features into a compact shell that can be placed on a desktop.

This device actually measures only 595mm wide, 586mm deep, and 34mm tall.

Despite the fact that it is Fuji Xeroxs low cost, entry level offering, it can still seem expensive for start-ups with limited funding.

Compared to other Fuji Xerox products, this device is on the economical side but compared to its primary competitors in the market, it is on the expensive side.

Estimates suggest that if you use OEM cartridges in this device, youll get a running cost of about 14.76 cents per page.

This estimate is valid even with extra high capacity toner cartridges.

Another issue with the Fuji Xerox DocuCentre SC2020 is that it doesnt offer the wireless connectivity, leave alone Wi-Fi Direct.
