It’s understandable why buying the most affordable printer is an attractive option. 

Not only does it cost less, but it requires little effort to find a machine that will be “good enough” for the time being.  

The problem with the “cheapest option” logic is that buying a printer just because it’s cheap, and subsequently ignoring the volume you need a machine to handle, can lead you to pay more in the long run for service issues, supplies and a replacement because the cheap printer ended up being unsuitable for your printing needs. 

As a local vendor that has seen this scenario play out numerous times, we want to put a halt to that trend by giving you honest and impartial information so you can base your decision on knowledge rather than finding the quickest, cheapest, option. 

Buying an office printer used to be so simple.  

Back in the day, you would go to the closest retail store and grab whatever machine was in stock, being that it was just a printer, and it did exactly that: print. 

Just like almost every piece of technology, printers have grown from their basic assumptive state to an advanced, multifaceted version of their preceding self and are now looked at as an investment by many companies. 

As a long-time print vendor, we’ve seen this printer transformation firsthand and have adjusted with it, learning everything there is to know about the modern-day printer and how it can aid in office productivity beyond what its name implies. 

We specifically partner with Xerox, which means that’s where our expertise lies. We can tell you everything you would want to know about any of their products. 

There’s a printing solution for almost every situation you can think of. 

Some require an extensive evaluation while others know the exact machine they want right away. 

No matter your situation, all business circumstances necessitate a thorough and wide-ranging assessment to determine the optimal print solution for you. 

Without access to the right information, you might be coaxed into purchasing a machine that’s inadequate for your printing goals, which can be costly from a money and time standpoint. 

As a locally managed print vendor that sells Xerox products exclusively, we have both the industry knowledge and progressive mindset to give you an honest and all-encompassing review of their machines. 

This review will cover the Xerox VersaLink B600 printer, including its specifications, key features, configuration options and pros and cons to help you gauge whether it could be a fit for you. 

Office security is like a house, with its many potential points of intrusion.     

Although you may have ample security at the front door, you might unknowingly have left the back window open, which precipitated a break-in just when you thought you had all your bases covered.   

Your printer could be the back window that a hacker infiltrates, resulting in a network invasion that cripples business processes and potentially exposes sensitive data.     

This is even more of the case with printers over 5-10 years old, which we will discuss in this article.    

As you research for a new printer, you might be thinking to yourself: “Is there an honest review of this printer model anywhere?” 

You might easily find the positives about the machine you’re looking into, but what about the negatives? If you’re like most brands, the limitations of a product aren’t usually expounded upon in the way that “the good things” about the product are. 

Access to unbiased and accurate information is what you need, and through our 35 years as a local print vendor, we’ve accumulated the knowledge and adapted the progressive mindset to deliver both.  

In that vein, we can tell you that the Xerox PrimeLink B9136, the machine we’ll be reviewing today, will not be for most consumers, as it is considered an entry-level production printer.
