Konica-Minolta 223 Printer Review

The Konica-Minolta bizhub 223 multifunction laser printer offers the essential functions and features for a small or medium office, and has room to grow into larger workloads. At 22 pages per minute, it isn't the quickest in its class, but fast scanning, a large paper capacity, and affordable bizhub 223 printer toner supplies add up to a lot of value for this model.

The 223 starts out with printing and copying capabilities, as well as color scanning. The latter is its most impressive function, with scanning speeds of up to 70 images per minute. Users also get several options for sharing their scans, from storing them to an optional internal hard drive to sharing them via email. With so many scanning options, it makes a great choice for the office adopting digital workflows, which also helps save on Konica-Minolta 223 toner costs.

The 223 is equipped with a standard paper capacity of 1,150 sheets, divided between two main trays and a 150-sheet bypass tray for alternative media. Extra media trays can be added as options, up to a maximum of 3,650 sheets. Other upgrade options include an external keyboard for easier data entry, expandable memory, faxing capabilities, and finishing options such as stapling and folding.

High-yield but low-cost toners are the ideal in a busy office, and the Konica-Minolta 223 toner cartridges don't disappoint in this respect. Each bizhub 223 toner cartridge can last for up to 25,000 pages, but prices are quite affordable.

The 223 doesn't impress with raw printing speed, but its quick scanning may appeal to offices leaning more toward paperless workflows. In any case, the affordability of Konica-Minolta 223 toner might be reason enough to give it serious consideration, though its upfront price may be too high for smaller offices.
