SHARP SHINES FROM LOW TO HIGH END OF COPIER MFP SPECTRUM
"Sharp's MX-M3070, MX-M4070, and MX-M6070 promise to serve workgroups from small to large equally well, beginning with their outstanding overall usability," said George Mikolay, Keypoint Intelligence's Associate Director of Copiers/Production. "The control panels are highly intuitive and customizable on a user-by-user basis and feature simplified Easy Mode functions, where users can quickly access the most commonly used scan and copy functions. Throw in the drivers, along with the innovative, award-winning web utility, and building workflows is a cinch."
"The Sharp MX-M905 blew through its 1,000,000-impression durability test with barely a glitch," said Joe Ellerman, Keypoint Intelligence's Manager of U.S. Lab Operations. "Plus, the robust 8,500-sheet paper capacity means time spent having to refill paper will be minimal. Programming jobs from the driver and control panel is also a breeze. And for IT administrators, the search function on the easy-to-use and organized web utility, as well as the ability to create shortcuts for common tasks directly from the utility, are big time savers."
"The Sharp MX-7580N and MX-6580N will serve mid-size to large organizations exceptionally well," Mikolay said. "The design of the drivers and control panel, along with the retractable keyboard, make programming all job types and entering data a breeze. Plus, the scan preview with multi-page views and onscreen editing, as well as fast scan speeds, ensure scans will be delivered accurately and expediently."
"Downtime will rarely be an issue for the Sharp MX-8090N and MX-7090N, as the devices experienced near-perfect reliability throughout durability testing," said Ellerman. "Uptime gets an additional boost thanks to the triple air-feed system that directs airflow to allow for more precision paper handling, further minimizing the risk of a misfeed occurring. And very good, consistent printed output means the devices will deliver the quality required in more marketing-intensive environments over long job runs."
TOSHIBA TOO MUCH FOR THE COMPETITION IN MID-RANGE MONO
"Scanning will be a snap, and fast, with the Toshiba e-STUDIO4518A, thanks to simple programming of destinations and scan speeds that are among the fastest in its class," said Mikolay. "A choice of four menu designs for scan and copy, from two of which the most commonly used settings are quickly found and programmable, and user-by-user customization, also allow users to program jobs quickly and efficiently. And with a perfect reliability performance, fast print speeds, and standard tandem printing to help complete large jobs even faster, the device promises timely delivery of every job, every day."
