Oki is targeting medium to large workgroups
with a new range of customisable A4 colour
MFPs with 9in colour LCD touchscreens,
28-40ppm print/scan speeds and a
maximum paper capacity of 3,160 sheets
from five paper sources.
To meet the needs of enterprise
customers, the MC700 Series features OKI’s
smart Extendable Platform (sXP) enabling
tight integration with enterprise document
workflows and customisation of the user interface.
To satisfy the security requirements of enterprises, the MFPs come
with an encrypted hard disk, secure PIN printing, data encryption and
disk wiping, plus secure print with card release options.
There are four models in the range, the MC760dn, MC760dnfax,
MC770dnfax and MC780dfnfax. All offer duplex printing and
scanning and a built-in stapler for convenience stapling: this is done
automatically on the MC780dfnfax, which comes with an internal
finisher for automated collating and stapling of document sets.
Built for MPS
The TASKalfa265ci colour MFP
was developed by Kyocera to
meet demand from its dealers
for an economical A4 device
suitable for click contracts.
Offering print speeds of 26ppm
and scan speeds of 35ipm,
the compact device has all
the attributes of an A3 model
including low running costs,
customisable HyPAS functionality
and long-lasting components.
The drum and developer unit
lasts for 200,000 pages, up to
10 times longer than competitor
products.

A3 inkjet sales falter
in UK
A3 inkjet printer sales were
one of the bright spots of
the printer industry in 2012,
but, according to IDC figures,
this growth market could be
running out of steam – in the
UK at least.
Sales of A3 inkjet devices
rose across Europe as a whole
in Q1 2013 (compared to Q1
2012), rising by almost a quarter
in Germany, which accounted for
over one third of all shipments in
Western Europe. However, in the
UK, sales of such devices fell.
Overall, the Western
European hardcopy market
declined by 14.5% in the first
quarter of 2013 to just over
5 million units, compared to
5.8 million units a year ago.
Hardcopy market value also fell,
by 9.5% to $2.6 billion in 11Q3
from $2.9 billion in 11Q2 as
intense competition and sluggish
markets sent street prices in
many segments into decline.
Oki targets enterprises with
customisable MFPs
HP has refreshed its OfficeJet
Pro range with a number of new
business inkjets including the
HP Officejet 7610 Wide Format
e-All-in-One. With support for print
media up to A3+ and print speeds
of up to 33ppm mono/29ppm
colour, the printer/copier/
scanner/fax lets businesses
produce professional-quality
marketing materials in-house,
including borderless flyers and
brochures.
Mono Geljet
Ricoh Europe has enhanced
its range of gel devices with
the launch of its first mono-
only model, the SG K3100DN.
Designed for offices and
retail environments wanting a
compact, economical printing
option, it consumes 90% less
power than a comparable
laser printer and has the
option of a high capacity,
10,000-page cartridge for
lower running costs. Other
benefits of the 29 pages
per minute printer include
a short warm-up time of 35
seconds; a first page out time
of 5.5 seconds; USB and
network connectivity; a small
footprint; front access for easy
operation; and support for
paper up to 256 g/m2.
