Kyocera Mita FS-1300 Printer Review

Monochrome printers only print in black-and-white and are mainly designed to meet the needs of mid-volume offices. With a monthly maximum of 20,000 prints, the Kyocera-Mita FS-1300 offers expandable features and efficient output rates that will increase productivity. This unit is compatible with all major operating systems, including Windows and Mac. The standard connection option is a USB port, but an optional ethernet interface will provide a networking environment if needed.

Though it is not a portable printer, the light weight of 22 pounds makes it easy to move. The frame measures only 14.8x15.5x9.8 inches, so it will fit comfortably in on a standard desk top. Of course, if more paper trays are added to the base unit, the overall size of the FS-1300 will increase. The machine comes with an input tray that holds 250 sheets and a 50-sheet multimedia tray that holds various types of media such as envelopes, labels and cards. Two additional 250-sheet trays are available that will raise the maximum paper capacity to 800 sheets.

The black printer toner is held in a single Kyocera-Mita FS-1300 toner cartridge. For users that have a limited budget, the high page yield of 7,200 prints per Kyocera-Mita FS-1300 toner cartridge should keep the cost per page reasonably low. When replacements are needed, there a few option available. OEM Kyocera-Mita FS-1300 toner can be purchased from various vendors, and remanufactured toners are also available from third party suppliers.

Duplex printing is a standard feature and will reduce paper costs if used regularly. Another built-in feature is the 32 MB memory, but this can be upgraded to 544 MB for users with larger tasks. With a resolution of 1200x1200 dpi created by the Kyocera-Mita FS-1300 toner and an output rate of 30 pages per minute, this laser printer will easily meet the needs of growing offices.
