More and more, businesses are looking for ways to bring their outsourced printing needs in-house in order to control cost, increase productivity and save time. The C9650 Series touts the most media flexibility in its class, accommodating up to 307 grams per square meter of paper, which is equivalent to a 54lb bond or a 75lb cover. Combined with fast printing at up to 36 pages per minute in color and 40 ppm in black-and-white with 10.5 seconds time to first color page, businesses can produce exceptional corporate materials in-house with affordability, quickness and ease.
