TASKalfa 358ci
The TASKalfa 358ci is amongst the best multifunctional A4 color printers by Kyocera and is perfectly suited to small and medium-sized businesses. It’s impressive 9600 x 600 dpi print resolution, offers a great deal of flexibility coupled with a range of paper-handling options. User can choose from a multitude of paper feeders with varying finishing options to ensure that the device is tailored to that particular use case.
However, there is a lot more to the Kyocera TASKalfa 358ci than meets the eye. We’ll go into some of the most useful features that the printer has to offer business users.
Key Features
Touch Screen Functionality
Following in the tradition of other TASKalfa printers, the 358ci has a large, colorful touch screen which uses Kyocera’s intuitive HyPAS™ platform, allowing users to set up the device and optimize their workflows. The 7-inch screen has a swivel mount which allows the panel to be easily tilted to any viewing angle.
Speed Combined with Excellent Print Quality
The Kyocera TASKalfa 358ci prints at an incredible 35 pages per minute for A4 size pages in monochrome and the same speed for color in both duplex and simplex mode. That speed, when combined with its 9600×600 dpi print resolution, translates to crisp blacks, and accurate color representation when printing colored documents.
However, the printer’s capabilities aren’t restricted to only printing A6 size pages, because it can just as easily print A6 pages and produce banner size prints measuring up to 1220mm.
Furthermore, there are many paper handling options to choose from, which include ones that can house 3100 sheets to 5 different media types.
Speaking of speed, the TASKalfa 358ci’s built-in scanning option can scan up to 170 images per minute using the one-path document processor. Just add the documents to the feed tray, set it to scan documents and the Taskalfa 358ci will handle the rest.
