Konica Minolta magicolor 2500W Review
Friday, December 8th, 2006The Konica Minolta magicolor 2500W isn’t the first $300 (okay, $299 direct) color laser I’ve looked at—that honor belongs to the HP Color LaserJet 1600. But it still earns big points for its low price. In fact, much of the printer’s appeal rests squarely on that price; though its speed and output quality are acceptable, [...]

And the first thing you need to know about the magicolor 5440 DL ($1,300 street) is that it’s not some minor upgrade to the 5430, as the model number suggests. On the contrary, it’s [...]
Konica Minolta PagePro 1390 MF
Wednesday, June 7th, 2006If you wanted to build the ideal personal all-in-one (AIO) suitable for use in any size office, you might start with a small monochrome laser printer and mount a letter-size flatbed scanner on top of it. Next, you’d throw in a built-in fax modem, control panel, and 50-page automatic document feeder (ADF)—and you’d wind up [...]
