Better Buys Names Two Xerox Document Centre Models; `Editor's Choice' Among High-volume Digital Products; Document Centre Products Recognized for Third Consecutive Year.

ROCHESTER, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 14, 1999--

The influential office equipment purchasing guide, Better Buys for Business, has awarded the Xerox Document Centre 265 and 255 network office products 1999 Editor's Choice designations among high-volume multifunctional devices. The selections mark the third consecutive year that the publication has chosen a member of the Xerox (NYSE:XRX) digital product family for this coveted recognition.

"Brand new design combined with great Xerox engineering ... there are no machines that are every bit as good as the (Document Centre 265 and 255) and that cost less ... they are certainly two of the better digital machines that money can buy," wrote the editors of Better Buys for Business in their just-published review.

The publication cited the unique modular design of the Xerox products that enables users to add new document processing functions as their needs change, and the units' ability to handle multiple document processing jobs simultaneously as features that distinguish them from competitive offerings.

"This recognition is another testament to our legacy of creating digital systems flexible enough to meet a myriad of user needs, yet powerful enough to handle many different document chores at once," said Richard Penwell, vice president and general manager of the Departmental Business Unit at Xerox. "We're pleased that the publication has given us this recognition and that our `winning streak' continues with our latest models."

In choosing Document Centre Systems as Editor's Choice in 1997, 1998 and again this year, Better Buys for Business has consistently cited Xerox for its digital technology leadership.

The Document Centre 265 and 255, which operate at 65 and 55 pages per minute respectively, are available in stand-alone copier and network laser printer versions, and as integrated digital systems capable of copying and printing documents. Scan and fax functionality will be added over time.
