Solid-ink printers have been around in one form or another for about 20 years, but a lot of people don't know much about them, if they've even heard of them. This is largely because the technology is, for all practical purposes, unique to Xerox, and thus there aren't many models to choose from. Such printers, however, are worth knowing about. Designed to go head-to-head with color lasers, they offer laser-like speed and output quality. The Xerox Phaser 8560MFP/D ($2,000 street) is the latest example of the breed, and one of the more impressive laser-class all-in-ones I've seen lately.
