With the new magicolor 8650DN Konica Minolta has introduced the ideal device for medium sized organisations and creative departments looking for a premium colour solution. Being able to handle a large variety of media and offering various finishing options, the printer allows users to give their creativity full scope. Innovative technology ensures that printing results are of the highest quality thus making outsourcing a necessity of the past. At the same time, the magicolor 8650DN’s economical printing helps users to keep to their budget.

 

A high print speed is most welcome not only when production schedules are tight. The magicolor 8650DN handles up to 35 pages per minute, either in colour or in black and white. As standard, the machine is equipped with two 500-sheet paper feeders and a 150-sheet bypass tray which may be amplified by further optional lower paper feeders. Thanks to the generous maximum input capacity of 3,650 sheets large print jobs can be handled easily and without interruption.

 

Besides delivering print outs quickly and reliably, the magicolor 8650DN ensures them to be of the highest quality. The machine works with Konica Minolta’s Simitri HD polymerised toner, combined with PhotoART-19200 contone technology printing at 600 x 600 x 5-bit. 5 bit for each pixel translates in more colours produced for every pixel with the extra bit further improving the reproduction and readability. Razor-sharp picture detail and smooth colour gradations are the result. A further component bringing about more precise colour output and reproduction is the ICC profile support. Just as the other Konica Minolta decives the magicolor 8650DN is also equipped with the Emperon controller for productive printing, including high quality and efficient print speed.

 

Quite outstanding is the magicolor’s flexibility: Via its multipurpose tray the magicolor 8650DN processes media of different formats reaching from OHPs, labels and envelopes to A3+ sheets and banners of up to 1.2 meters in length. With respect to paper weight, media of up to 271 gsm present no problem to the machine and in the duplex printing mode 256 gsm can be reliably fed through.

 

With the magicolor 8650DN finishing has almost become an art. The device’s modular layout allows users to get the finishing options they really need. As standard, the magicolor 8650DN is equipped with an offset sorting function. It may be expanded with numerous options such as a punching kit or a booklet option to produce saddle stitched and folded booklets. Sophisticated reports or brochures can conveniently be produced inhouse.

 

With so many features ensuring highest quality economical printing also means a lot. There is a toner saving mode that recommends itself when printing for internal use, thereby reducing toner consumption by up to 50%. An auto-colour recognition makes sure colour is only printed where it is really needed. Users can also be given limited acess rights for colour printing.

 

“There are several reasons why our new magicolor 8650DN beats outsourcing”, says Karsten Wiebking, Product Manager Office Group at Konica Minolta. “With the different media types it can handle and the various finishing options available, the new magicolor’s flexibility is immense. Furthermore, we offer users various means to cut down printing costs with this machine.”
