Konica Minolta 4650 Printer Review

Though most offices prefer a monochrome laser printer because standard professional documents are black-and-white print, some work places have a need for color printing. The Konica-Minolta PagePro 4650 is designed to handle the daily needs of a mid-sized office, but it also produces the high-quality color prints that would be sufficient for photographs. With a monthly duty cycle of 150,000 prints, offices will be able to grow with the 4650.

The high-grade Konica-Minolta 4650 toner will produce a maximum resolution of 1200x1200 dpi. Quality is not compromised when printing at full speed, which is up to 35 pages per minute and a first page out time of 8.7 seconds. Though this is not the fastest output speed on the market, it will increase productivity.

Four PagePro 4650 toner cartridges are required for operation, holding cyan, magenta, yellow and black printer toner. The starter toners that are supplied in the box upon purchase have a maximum page yield of 6,000 prints, but standard Konica-Minolta 4650 toner cartridges can produce up to 8,000 pages each. Compatible PagePro 4650 toner is available from third party vendors online, which will cost less than half as much as OEM.

This color laser unit has a 500 MHz processor and a built-in memory of 128 MB, which can be upgraded to 384 MB. The standard paper handling configuration is a 500-sheet input, 150-sheet bypass tray for alternative media like labels and envelopes, and a 500-sheet output tray. There is also a 500-sheet finishing option that will staple or sort. Compatible with all major operating systems and offering duplex printing and networking, the 4650 is a good match for any office. The affordable replacement Konica-Minolta 4650 toner keeps this color laser printer within the office budget, while its 16.6x18.3x15.9 inch frame will make it easy to set up and store anywhere.
