Print Solutions

A new line up of toner monochrome machines has been unveiled by Konica Minolta in a move to empower customers to rethink efficiencies in inplant printrooms and commercial print environments. The AccurioPrint 850i and 950i offer simple operability and high quality performance, whilst providing full integration with cloud services and workflows.

In today’s fast paced enterprises, customers demand maximum efficiencies and highly automated, efficient systems, as well as the latest security technology to ensure a reliably safe user environment. The AccurioPrint 850i and 950i Series provide all this and more.

Achieving a level of durability and solid build rarely seen on a multifunctional printer (MFP), the two models – printing at up to 85 pages and 95 pages per minute respectively (up to 48 A3 pages per minute) – offer outstanding print stability thanks to multiple improvements to basic functionality. The i-Series offers advanced digital connectivity, enabling printing anytime from anywhere, plus powerful finishing functions.

The AccurioPrint 850i/950i is the highest end model of the bizhub i-Series, keeping the Minerva engine and combining unified functions, operations, and services. The models will be suitable for central reprographic departments in government and commercial sectors, as well as print for pay and commercial printers.

Other features of the 850i/950i include:

An innovative media sensor that automatically detects paper type and weight, reliably applying correct settings. The sensor also detects envelopes, saving time and minimising operator intervention.
Supporting an extensive variety of media (up to 300 g/m2).
A new paper cabinet allowing mixed size paper loading.
Ready made print products such as 20 sheet bookletmaking, 100 sheet stapling, and letter fold-in capabilities.
True 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution and Simitri HD toner technology.
High end print controller with innovative colour touch screen panel.
Seamless integration into document workflows.
Improved environmental performance and low power consumption.

Malcolm Smith, category manager – professional print at Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK), said: ‘We place great importance on empowering our customers in a partnership approach to grow their business with our solutions. The AccurioPrint 850i/950i Series represent an expansion of our professional print offering which is equally suitable for the reprographics departments within the public and private sector as well the commercial print customers.

‘Simple operability and high quality performance are preconditions to achieving maximum efficiency and completing work quickly and without fuss. The latest security technology and a host of finishing options will also add to the appeal of these advanced systems.’
