If you’ve been putting off upgrading the printer in your workplace, it’s probably for a few different reasons. You’d think the most obvious one would be expense, but really, most modern printers are affordable compared to how much these office must-haves used to cost even just a decade or two ago.

The thing slowing you down is actually way more likely to be that you don’t feel like wading through a maze of confusing model numbers and spec sheets, and then, of course, some degree of concern that you may not make the right right choice.

Fortunately, Xerox has made the choice even easier, especially for those small business owners who simply want a printer that turns on, connects to the local network without a struggle, and is generally capable of churning out clean, professional-looking documents day after day.

No muss, no fuss. That’s exactly what you’ll get with the latest entries to the C series. Today on the Smart Document Solutions blog we’ll be taking a look at Xerox’s C240 printer as well as the slightly more robust C300 printer.

Both the C240 and the C300 Xerox printers were built with specific kinds of use cases in mind: the small business owner who doesn’t have or need an IT department. Setup for each device is designed to be simple. Day-to-day use will also be straightforward thanks to the intuitive touch screen interface that both printers have.

The two models differ mostly in output speed and paper capacity. The C240 is the leaner choice, having a smaller form factor and thus fitting comfortably into the corner of a desk or tucked away somewhere else in the office. The price for this smaller size, however, is a lower paper capacity and a slightly slower page per minute output speed.

How To Choose Between the Xerox C240 and the Xerox C300

If you sound like the target audience for either of these C-Series printers, really all you have left to decide on is how you plan to use the device. If you print large documents regularly and speed is important to you, the C300’s faster output speed and larger paper capacity will serve you well. However, if you don’t print as often or you don’t mind waiting a little bit longer for documents to be printed, the C240 will be a great choice.

Both printers can have beautiful color, excellent security features (which is the norm for any modern Xerox device), and they look good too. Both models are reliable, easy to use, and output excellent print quality. Once you decide how the printer will be used on a day-to-day basis, choosing between the C240 and the C300 should be simple.
