Xerox C310 Colour Printer – Xerox

The Xerox C310 is a colour A4 printer — printing only, with no scanner or copier — built for small workgroups: SMEs, freelancers, professionals, home offices and remote workers, as well as individuals or clients who need professional colour without the functions of a multifunction device. It prints at 33 pages per minute, in colour as in black and white, with a recommended volume of 6,000 pages per month and a maximum cycle of 80,000 images.

Let’s be clear about that figure, because it determines the machine’s lifespan: 6,000 pages a month is the regime of a small workgroup, not a shared print department. If your office exceeds that volume, our advisers will steer you towards a more durable model — better to know before ordering.

Within its scope, the C310 is well built. Its resolution reaches 1200 x 1200 dpi, with image quality enhanced to 4,800 dpi: business documents, presentations and colour materials come out with professional sharpness. The 1 GHz dual-core processor with GPU and one gigabyte of RAM explain its responsiveness: the first colour page lands in 7.2 seconds, the first black-and-white page in 6.7. Duplex is fitted as standard, secure printing is built in, and paper capacity goes from 251 sheets as standard to 901 sheets as an option — with good media tolerance: light, plain, thick and card stock, plus envelopes. Wi-Fi is built in as standard (802.11 b/g/n), with Wi-Fi Direct, alongside Gigabit Ethernet and USB: the machine is placed and connects, with no network cable and no surcharge. Mobile printing covers Apple AirPrint, Mopria and Chromebook. The Smart Start installer allows commissioning without IT support. On security, signed firmware, access controls and confidential printing protect your sensitive documents.

Environmentally, the C310 is among the best certified in our catalogue: EPEAT, ENERGY STAR, Blue Angel — Europe’s most demanding ecolabel — and Xerox’s Green World Alliance programme for recycling used cartridges. For a freelancer or SME bidding on tenders with environmental criteria, that is a case already made.

Compared with the VersaLink C400, its neighbour in our colour printer range, the trade-off is not the one you would expect. The C400 prints slightly faster (35 ppm versus 33), takes more paper (1,250 sheets versus 901) and has a 5-inch touchscreen the C310 lacks. But the C310 keeps two concrete advantages: built-in Wi-Fi as standard — optional, and therefore chargeable, on the C400 — and a complete environmental record, with Blue Angel and Green World Alliance that the C400 does not carry. Home office, small organisation, immediate wireless connection and ESG requirements: C310. A slightly larger team, touchscreen and high paper capacity: C400. And if you need to scan, the C315, its multifunction twin, is the one to look at.

At D&O Partners, the Xerox C310 is available for purchase, rental or leasing, with installation and configuration by our certified technicians, across Belgium. Our maintenance contracts include on-site support and cartridges delivered within 48 hours. Request a quote or come and see it in our Brussels showroom.

FAQ:

What is the difference between the Xerox C310 and the VersaLink C400?
The C400 is slightly faster (35 ppm versus 33), takes more paper (1,250 sheets versus 901) and has a 5-inch touchscreen. The C310 keeps built-in Wi-Fi as standard (optional on the C400) and a complete environmental record with Blue Angel and Green World Alliance, which the C400 does not carry.

Can the Xerox C310 scan or copy?
No. It is a printer: its standard function is printing, with no scanner or copier. If you need those functions, the C315 — its multifunction twin — is the one to look at; our advisers will walk you through its specifications.

What volume is the Xerox C310 designed for?
A recommended volume of 6,000 pages per month, with a maximum cycle of 80,000 images. That is the calibre of a small workgroup or home office. Beyond that, our certified technicians will steer you towards a more durable model.

Is the Xerox C310 an eco-responsible choice?
Yes, and it is among the best certified in our colour range: EPEAT, ENERGY STAR, Blue Angel (Europe’s most demanding ecolabel) and Xerox’s Green World Alliance programme for recycling used cartridges, which D&O Partners manages with you.
