Introducing the Xerox 6279™ Wide Format Printer. The easy-to-operate, flexible,
and amazingly efficient way to improve the productivity of your demanding CAD
environment. Whether you’re producing architectural plans, engineering renderings,
schematics, or other wide format applications, the 6279 gives you the image quality
you need and the speed you demand.
The speed to get more done. From the moment you turn it on, the 6279—and
its new, intuitive color user interface—is all about efficiency. With its ability to print
7 or 9 D/A1-size prints per minute and scan up to 8 ips while printing, you can meet
even the most demanding deadlines. Plus, it holds up to 4 rolls of bond paper, tracing
paper or film for uninterrupted printing and unmatched media flexibility.

Designed for demanding wide format applications like these:
Sharp images.
Your important prints, scans and copies deserve
nothing less than superior image quality. That’s
why the 6279™ offers crisp 600 x 600 dpi
printing and 600 x 600 dpi scanning capability.
So even your most complex monochrome
prints—including engineering and architectural
renderings and schematics—can have sharp,
precise detail print after print. And with the
optional On-Board Scanner or Wide Format Scan
System, copies of worn originals are improved
with automatic background suppression.
Enhanced flexibility.
With a wide range of configuration options—
including Printer-only and Copier/Printer with
monochrome scanning that is upgradeable
to color—and its integrated Xerox FreeFlow®
Accxes®Print Server, the 6279 is designed to fit
seamlessly into any workflow. To protect your
investment, the software and equipment are
field-upgradeable, so your system can grow with
your business. By adding the optional scan-to-net
key, you can add additional versatility, such as
scanning multi-page PDFs and multi-page
TIFFs, and enable remote color workflows with
TotalAccxess. Its complete set of drivers ensures
you can print graphics, business and engineering
applications and support a wide range of file
formats, including PostScript®, PDF, DWF, BMP,
JPEG, PNG, GIF and DGN. The optional Wide
Format Stacker enables longer production
runs, minimizing operator intervention. The
integrated development of the 6279 and the
Wide Format Stacker enables intelligent
two-way communication which equates to
maximum reliability and productivity.

need it. And the 6279 is designed to do just that.
