Xerox AltaLink C8230

This is the machine we reach for when a busy office needs dependable colour without drama. It prints, copies, and scans in one device at 30 pages per minute in colour and black and white, and it is rated for up to 90,000 pages a month, so month-end crunches do not faze it. The tablet-style 10.1 inch touchscreen works the way a phone does, which means less time training staff and fewer calls to the one person who knows the copier.

It prints up to 12 by 18 inch sheets and banners up to 52 inches through the bypass, which covers booklets, posters, and long spreadsheet runs in-house. Add optional finishing and a proposal comes off the machine already stapled, hole punched, or stitched into a booklet, rather than by hand. The single-pass duplex scanner reads both sides of a page at once, up to 161 images per minute, straight into email, network folders, or the cloud services your team already uses.

Underneath, it is engineered for exactly this duty, rated at 90,000 pages a month, and built to hold up under heavy daily use where lesser copiers wear out and fail. That durability is the whole point of putting it on a managed print agreement with us. We monitor it, the toner arrives before you run out, and service is handled before a small issue becomes downtime. You get a copier that simply keeps working, and a single local number to call when you need us.
