The manufacturer is aiming the black and white machine at architectural, engineering and construction businesses, as well as commercial print operations.

The machine can print up to five A1 images a minute at resolutions of 600dpi and features an on-board colour scanner that can be used to send scans to colour devices on the network.

Howard Witt, wide format manager for Xerox Europe, said: "The new Xerox Wide Format 6605 solution is an extremely easy to use device that offers great image quality, proven reliability and impressive productivity."

The Xerox 6605 Solution is available to order from November while 6204 users can upgrade this system to the new 6605 configuration.
