Productivity tests
Article Abstract:
Photocopier suppliers often advertise copier speeds of 60 copies per minuute, however, this refers to 'cruising' speed, which does not account for the delays which can be caused by using document feeders, sorters, first copy time, and other copier features. A series of tests to assess the actual copier speeds revealed that overall the Panasonic FP7750 achieved the highest productivity rate in the 50-69 copies per minute (cpm) category; while the Ricoh FT7670 ranked tops in the 70-90 cpm sector.
