Fuji Xerox Affordable DocuCentre SC2020

Looking for a color multifunction printer for your new start-up business?

Then the DocuCentre SC2020 will be ideal for you!

Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd have recently launched a new affordable A3 color multifunction device- DocuCentre SC2020, targeting small-office-home-offices (SOHO) and small-and medium-sized businesses (SMB), especially current users of monochrome products. The device is affordable yet equipped with Fuji Xerox’s longstanding color printing technologies, this product is available across the Asia-Pacific regions including China (excluding Japan).

DocuCentre SC2020 is an A3 color multifunction device developed specifically for the SOHO/SMB markets with color print/copy speed of 20 pages per minute (ppm). By equipping it with features that meet the needs of these markets and the capability to make high-resolution color prints, Fuji Xerox aims to expand its line-up of products for the growing A3 low-end color printing markets across the Asia Pacific (excluding Japan).

High color print quality in a compact body

DocuCentre SC2020, while being compact in size to fit in SOHO/SMB offices, produces high-resolution prints at 1,200 x 2,400 dots per inch (dpi), creating smooth black lines and character outlines.

To realize this high print quality, DocuCentre SC2020 features a new light emitting diode (LED) print head equipped with the newly developed self-scanning light emitting device—the Current Confinement Self-Scanning Light Emitting Device— which incorporates Fuji Xerox's proprietary laser scanning technology, Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL). With the Current Confinement Self-Scanning Light Emitting Device, the volume of light it emits is efficiently increased by controlling and confining the light current's pathways, which enables the LED print head to effectively emit light equivalent to the higher models, thereby contributing to high-resolution prints, yet saving energy. Furthermore, DocuCentre SC2020's LED print head size has been reduced by incorporating the downsizing technology used in Fuji Xerox's small A4 printers.

The product also helps users achieve improved screen-to-print accuracy with digitally-processed 2,400 dpi high-resolution data enabled by the Image Registration Control Technology (IReCT).

DocuCentre SC2020 has selected features that are convenient for the SOHO/SMB users, on top of basic copying, printing, faxing and scanning.

Environmentally responsible

DocuCentre SC2020 enables users to reduce toner consumption, calibrating toner density in three settings of Light, Lighter and Lightest, based on individual print requirements. Further, the product has a low typical electricity consumption (TEC)of 1.2 kilowatt-hour (kWh) and consumes 1.4 watts in sleep mode, which is the state that printers spend most of their time in.
