Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Xerox Versant 280 Press is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You're a commercial printer doing brochures, packaging mockups, or banner work needing 400 gsm at full speed.
  • You print long-sheet pieces — pull-up banners, gatefolds, retail signage to 47 inches.
  • You need inline slitting, cutting, or saddle-stitch booklet making.
  • You can spec the Performance Package and a Fiery EX-i DFE.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You run 40,000 to 100,000 color pages monthly across mixed media.
  • You occasionally need long sheets but mostly print SRA3 or smaller.
  • You can start with basic finishing and add modules as job mix grows.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 15,000 color pages a month. Look at the Versant 80 or VersaLink line.
  • You need a multifunction office device with scan-to-email.
  • You don't need long-sheet or 400 gsm stock — pay less and get the Versant 180.
  • You didn't price the Performance Package, Fiery DFE, and finishers.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Xerox Versant 280 Press runs at 80 ppm on color or B&W up to 300 gsm, and the optional Performance Package keeps it at 80 ppm on stock up to 400 gsm. Output is 2400 x 2400 dpi VCSEL ROS resolution. Heavy-stock capability is the headline: 400 gsm simplex, 350 gsm auto-duplex, plus long-sheet printing up to 13 x 47.2 inches (1.2 m). Modular finishing covers binder, booklet, cutting, folding, stacking, slitting, and hole punching. Digital front-end options are Xerox EX 280 or EX-i 280 powered by Fiery. The thing buyers regret: the spec sheet says "B&W" in the data but this is fully color-capable — the Versant 280 was sold in both color and B&W variants and listings get confused. Confirm the configuration before signing. Also: the Adaptive CMYK and inline spectrophotometer are part of the Performance Package, not the base. If color match across long runs is the value driver, spec the package.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

FAQ

Xerox Versant 280 Press, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (888) 574-5120 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Xerox Versant 280 Press ships with a starter toner cartridge. The standard cartridges yield approximately 20,000 pages for black and 22,000 pages for CMY. Replacement toner models include high-yield options, such as the Black Toner Cartridge (20,000 pages) and specialty toners like Vivid Gold (23k) and Clear (30k). When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Xerox Versant 280 Press is a production-level printer with a speed of 80 ppm for both color and B&W, supporting heavy-stock up to 400 gsm and long-sheet printing up to 13 x 47.2 inches. The Xerox Color EC70 Printer, on the other hand, is designed for mid-volume production with speeds of 70 ppm color and 75 ppm black, supporting stocks up to 300 gsm.

For smaller offices, consider a more compact and cost-effective option like the Xerox Color EC70 Printer or explore our commercial printer lease options.
Yes, the Xerox Versant 280 Press is fully capable of printing in color, despite some listings incorrectly labeling it as B&W.
