At R 16,500.00 the new magicolor 2200 DeskLaser offers versatile high quality colour laser printing and standard 10/100 BaseTX ethernet networking for the same price as monochrome printers.
Print speeds of 20 ppm monochrome and 5 ppm colour make quick work of print jobs for businesses large and small
Extended document handling capabilities such as high-volume paper input, two-sided printing, and mailbox features raise desktop colour laser finishing to a level previously only found in monochrome printers and copiers
The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser is specially designed for Windows -based office environments, capitalizing on the printing capabilities already contained in Windows 95/98/Me, NT 4.0, and Windows 2000
The use of colour printers is expanding in the small business market with colour laser printing fast becoming the standard for all offices. MINOLTA-QMS targets the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser at monochrome and ink jet printer users looking to move up to a colour laser printer. The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser delivers the essentials of imaging for today`s office, offering high-quality colour, standard network connectivity, and low costs-per -page. These and many other performance features make the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser the perfect replacement printer for businesses currently using monochrome laser printers and/or colour ink jet printers. The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser is expected to repeat the success of its predecessor, the magicolor 2 DeskLaser, a top performer in the colour laser market.
The consistent high-quality output of this new DeskLaser model makes it exceptional value. Unlike colour ink jet printers, whose images smear, fade easily, and require drying time, the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser colour laser printer provides durable, long-lasting images that withstand the roughest conditions. Moreover, this colour laser can print full-coverage 1200 dpi output at full rated speed, unlike colour ink jet printers whose printing speed slows when printing at higher coverage or quality. The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser also offers higher consumable and paper capacity, making it less expensive per printed page - and more cost effective - than colour ink jet printers.
"The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser, like many of our award-winning products, dispels the myth that only big businesses with large budgets can afford high performance colour," says Jan Sundelin, senior vice-president of worldwide sales and marketing at MINOLTA-QMS. "Some business workgroups could cost-effectively replace their current mid-range monochrome printer with a magicolor 2200 DeskLaser and get faster, high-quality black-and-white printing, and all the advantages of colour, as well."
While print speed and throughput from the network are important and contribute to office workflow, the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser offers additional "convenience" features that can help printer users become more productive.
Performance for Network Printing
Faster Print Speeds - Using a Minolta print engine, the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser can print pages as fast as 20 per minute in black and white, and five per minute in colour.
Fast Throughput -DeskLaser technology is a powerful printer architecture that includes behind-the-scenes technology to ensure print jobs are processed and printed at maximum speed. Even when multiple users are printing at the same time, jobs are efficiently moved from the network through the printer.
Network Proficiency - The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser is equipped with both a "Plug and Play" parallel and auto-sensing 10/100BaseTX Ethernet interfaces. The Ethernet interface is particularly effective because it supports both 10-megabit network LANs as well as Fast Ethernet networks. Improving Office Production
Higher Paper Input - The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser has 650 sheets of paper input standard -. This includes two sources for printing on multiple media. And the higher paper capacity means the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser can be used frequently without constant refilling by printer users. An additional 500 sheet cassette can also be added.
Duplexing - Two-sided printing, also known as duplexing, can be performed by the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser when fitting the optional duplexer.. Duplexing not only saves paper and paper storage costs, it allows users to develop two-sided reports, newsletters, brochures, booklets and other documents in full colour.
Addressable Mailbox Unit - The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser can be equipped with a mailbox option that has five 50-sheet addressable bins. An individual user can print different jobs to each bin, or a group of users can each be assigned a mail bin to which they send their documents. This makes it easy to distinguish among print jobs.
Easy-to-Use Print Management Tool - The CrownView printer management tool included with the magicolor 2200 DeskLaser makes it one of the easiest colour laser printers to use. Individuals can check the status of their print jobs, configure the printer, and review toner levels through their Internet browser using the CrownView printer-based Web page.
High-Quality Output
1200 dpi - The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser doesn`t sacrifice quality for performance. The printer offers 1200 x 600 dpi resolution for impressive documents-from general reports and letters to presentations and brochures.
Automated Colour Control - The last thing printer users want to be concerned with is adjusting colour settings on a printer to achieve the output they expect. The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser has an automated colour control system that includes automatic ICC-based colour matching and AIC (Automatic Image Calibration). A closed-loop colour correction system, AIC optimises the printer to produce the most consistent, high quality output every time.
Flexible Printing - The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser supports a wide variety of print media commonly used in the office environment, including paper, transparencies, envelopes, and thick stock. The printer`s multipurpose tray makes it possible to print on this array of media types. Although the printer accepts many types of media, it doesn`t require any special kind to achieve the best quality output-a common problem with ink jet printers.
"The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser has an aggressive price and successful format that works well for businesses large and small," says Sundelin. "This printer is proof of our continued commitment to bring colour laser printing to all types of businesses and consumers."
