One of the advantages of the Konica Minolta magicolor 1600W is its price, which makes it the most affordable among other laser printers today. Wherein this model is not inferior in printing speed and quality of the resulting prints. But what makes the Konica Minolta 1600W printer truly attractive is its compact dimensions - 396 x 275 x 380 mm. Unlike inkjet printers, it takes up much less space and is ideal for home use or small office. The 1600W paper supply is 200 sheets, which is quite enough for a personal printer.

Installation

Setting up the Konica Minolta 1600W is not difficult. You need to unpack the device, load paper into it, connect the power cord and USB cable, and then start automatic installation software from the disk included in the package. Installation disk contains drivers for Windows 2000, Vista 32 and 64 versions, XP and Windows Server 2003.

Print speed

When choosing a laser printer, many users focus primarily on its performance. In a minute, the Konica Minolta 1600W produces 20 pages in monochrome or 5 color pages. On the one hand, this is faster than the speed of any inkjet printer, but on the other hand, it’s a little slower, unlike other laser printers. However, Konica Minolta 1600W can be a worthy competitor.

The Konica Minolta 1600W printer we tested took a total of 19 minutes and 15 seconds to print an installed business application package. Thus, the performance of the Konica Minolta 1600W is much higher than the more expensive Samsung CLP-315 (24 minutes and 30 seconds) and HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni (21 minutes and 41 seconds).

Print quality

In addition to excellent speed performance, the Konica Minolta magicolor 1600W is also distinguished by the high quality of its products. Test text containing standard and some stylized fonts was easy to read. The graphics quality, with crisp edges and vibrant colors, is more than enough for any business. Konica Minolta 1600W products can be used for professional handouts or mailers. One drawback is that fine lines disappear when printed, which is a problem in general with most personal printers.

The high quality of the resulting photographs allows them to be used to create newsletters and other materials. The only drawback was pasteurization and too rich colors in some photos.

Conclusion

As a personal laser printer Konica Minolta magicolor 1600W is an excellent choice. Compact size, high productivity, high-quality text, graphics and photographs, large paper supply and low price make it competitive in the market.

Using original cartridges in Konica Minolta printers and MFPs (DI, Dizhub), you can be sure of high quality printed documents and the security of the printing device. The only disadvantage is their high price, which affects the cost of printing and the cost of maintaining the device.

Often, the high price of an original cartridge is not due to the costs of its production, but to the competition between manufacturers (vendors) of printing equipment. By reducing the price of a printer as much as possible, manufacturers are trying to “recoup” costs by selling consumables.

Despite the large amount of information contained in various sources, not all users know that it is possible to save on printing without losing quality by using compatible cartridges.
