Unlike many of the past MagiColor printers from Konica, the Konica Minolta MagiColor 3300 does not suffer from an extremely slow print speed. Both black and white and color performance is top notch with the unit, as well as print quality and paper expansion options. With an easy setup and a stripped down hardware set, the 3300 is the perfect unit for the office that demands performance without the frills.
If buyers do decide that the Konica Minolta MagiColor 3300 is too bare bones of a unit, Konica offers a full line of hardware accessories for complete control over customizing the produce. A hard disk drive can be added for storage of commonly used forms, as well as job spooling, PDF printing, accounting, and virtual memory. With a digital copier option, the 3300 can be converted into a two in one printer / copier unit, and a tailor made scanner stand makes it easy to mount the scanning unit.
Paper expansion options include a high capacity input feeder that comes with two 500 sheet trays that bring the Konica Minolta MagiColor 3300's maximum paper storage up to 1600 sheets, and is also large enough to make the unit floor standing. A single 500 sheet feeder is also available, but does not make the unit into a floor standing model. A simple printer cabinet can also be added to make the unit floor standing, and can be used for additional storage, but does not feed paper.
Utilizing the latest in current technology, the Konica Minolta MagiColor 3300 takes advantage of PRISMLASER Technology which combines multiple color toner units (cyan, magenta, and yellow) into a single unit, making toner swaps easier than ever and also helping to save money. Custom polymer toner allows for improved print control and color accuracy, while ultimately reducing the unit's operating temperature and, therefore, energy costs.
Basic print specifications are quite impressive, with a standard print speed of up to 24 pages per minute in both color and black and white. When the automatic duplexor is in use, two sided output can be produced at a very competitive rate of 15 pages per minute. When utilizing double sided printing, paper usage can be sliced virtually in half, saving your business money and cost per page.
A dedicated control panel keeps operation of the printer simple and straightforward, while superior compatibility allows for the optimal number of connection possibilities. Memory comes standard at a very high 256 MBs and is further upgradable to 512 MBs for those who often print complex projects such as mixed text and imagery. Connectivity options include a Parallel port, USB port, and 10/100 Base TX Ethernet port for networking. The model is completely plug and play' compatible, making setup a breeze.
Providing fast, affordable color laser printing options and a complete array of expansion and custom options, the Konica Minolta MagiColor 3300 is a great selection for businesses who wish to incorporate color printing into their hardware set without sacrificing speed or user friendliness.
