Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Xerox AltaLink C8155 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 run a department of 50-100 people that needs in-house tabloid color and prints 8,000-20,000 pages a month.
  • You scan stacks of mixed-size color originals daily — single-pass DADF runs 82 ppm simplex / 141 ipm duplex.
  • You're standardized on Xerox ConnectKey and want one device that drops into Workplace Suite and Workflow Central.
  • You need enterprise security (Trusted Boot, Trellix whitelisting, FIPS 140-3, Common Criteria) for legal, healthcare, finance, or gov work.
  • You need finishing — BR Booklet Maker Finisher with C-fold/Z-fold turns this into a small in-house print shop (64-page saddle-stitched booklets, hole punch, multi-position staple).
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 4,000-8,000 pages a month — overbuilt for that, you'll just amortize the lease over 5 years instead of 3.
  • You want Wi-Fi standard — NFC is built in, but Wi-Fi/Wi-Fi Direct requires the optional Dual Band Wireless Kit (~$200-300).
  • You're replacing a Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5500-series or Konica bizhub C550i — operators get the 10.1" tablet UI in a week or two.
  • You need a Fiery print server — the optional EX-c C8100 Print Server Powered by Fiery is available, but it's a separate spend and a separate workflow.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 4,000 pages a month — get a VersaLink C505 or step down to the C8145. At 4,000/month you're paying for capacity you'll never use.
  • You need 70 ppm — step up to the C8170.
  • You're tight on floor space — base footprint is 24.4 x 28.5 x 44.5 in. and the device weighs around 316 lb. Floor furniture.
  • You don't have a Xerox dealer or managed print contract — sold through dealer channels with service agreements.
  • You print sustained heavy color (50%+ of total volume) — toner economics tighten at that ratio; ask for a metered color rate before signing the lease.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Xerox AltaLink C8155 is the high-volume model in the AltaLink C8100 color tabloid family — a floor-standing A3 color laser MFP built for departments of 50 to 100 users that need in-house 11x17 color at production-class speed. It prints and copies up to 55 ppm in both color and black, scans at 82 ppm simplex / 141 ipm duplex from the 130-sheet single-pass DADF, and is rated for a 300,000-page monthly duty cycle. Standard paper capacity with the high-capacity tandem tray is 3,140 sheets, expandable to 6,140 with the optional 3,000-sheet HCF. The 10.1" tablet-like color touchscreen runs the full ConnectKey stack (Workflow Central, App Gallery, Fleet Orchestrator), and security is enterprise-grade (Trusted Boot, Trellix Embedded Control whitelisting, Common Criteria, FIPS 140-3, McAfee ePO and Cisco ISE integration). Connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet plus USB 2.0 standard; Wi-Fi is an optional kit. Finishing options include the Integrated Office Finisher, Office Finisher with Booklet Maker, BR Finisher, and BR Booklet Maker Finisher with C-fold/Z-fold — fully outfitted, this works as a small in-house print shop. Buyers regret: paying for 55 ppm color when their actual color volume is under 30% of total. If color is occasional, the AltaLink B8155 mono (id 1386) is the same chassis at 55 ppm with much lower per-page cost.

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.

What customers actually say

The 5-star consensus: "it just works"

Small sample size, high signal. The 6 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging Xerox machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • ★ "We replaced our old Ricoh with this AltaLink and the difference in speed and print quality is noticeable. Network setup was straightforward, and the finishing options have actually reduced our outsourcing costs for collated jobs."
  • ★ "Solid workhorse for our small design firm. Color accuracy is good for our proofs, though the learning curve on the touch screen took a couple days. Service calls have been reasonable when we've needed them."
  • ★ "This machine handles our high-volume copying and scanning needs without breaking a sweat. The mobile printing integration works as advertised, and toner yields are about what Xerox claimed."
  • ★ "We use this in our office for high-volume color printing and it handles everything we throw at it. The finishing options are solid and the network setup was straightforward. Only wish the toner cartridges were a bit cheaper."
  • ★ "Had this unit for two years now with minimal downtime. Print quality stays consistent and the maintenance alerts actually help prevent bigger issues. Would definitely buy another one."
  • ★ "It's a workhorse but kind of overkill for what we actually need. Paper jams are rare which is good, and the scanning to email feature saves us time on document distribution."

Yes. The MFC-L2759DW ships with a high-yield 4,500-page starter toner cartridge, which is roughly 3 to 6 months of toner for a typical small office. Replacement toner is Xerox TN830XL (high-yield, about 4,500 pages) or TN830 (standard yield, about 1,200 pages). When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.

The Xerox AltaLink C8155 is the refreshed version of the MFC-L2750DW with updated firmware, a longer-life drum, and an expanded starter toner yield (4,500 pages versus 3,000). Print speed, automatic 2-sided print and scan, and connectivity are identical. For most small offices the 2759DW is the better long-term value because of the larger included toner.

Yes, for small offices printing under about 2,500 pages per month. It's fast at 36 ppm, handles auto 2-sided print and scan, supports Wi-Fi and Ethernet, and has a 50-page document feeder for multi-page scans. If you regularly print more than 5,000 pages per month or need color, step up to a commercial-grade multifunction printer — see our commercial printer options.

No. The MFC-L2759DW is monochrome (black and white) only. It cannot print color. If you need color, look at the Brother MFC-L3750CDW or a commercial color multifunction printer like the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX or Konica Minolta bizhub series.

Xerox includes a 1-year limited manufacturer warranty on the MFC-L2759DW when purchased new from an authorized reseller. 1-800 Office Solutions is an authorized Xerox reseller. Extended warranty and full-service maintenance plans are available through our managed print services bundle, which covers parts, labor, and on-site service for the life of the agreement.

Yes. Free delivery is included on every Xerox AltaLink C8155 order shipped within the continental United States. Most orders ship within 1 to 2 business days and arrive within 2 to 5 business days. Install guidance is available by phone or remote session at no extra cost.
