Kyocera Mita KM-4050 Toner Cartridges

Kyocera Mita KM-4050 Printer Review

For an office, having a machine that can handle a variety of tasks is imperative to the growth and success of a business. The Kyocera-Mita KM-4050 has the ability to print, scan, copy and fax with high quality and reliability. Though it was designed to mainly be a printer, the other functions work well enough to eliminate the need for multiple machines. With a maximum output rate of 40 pages per minute and a maximum monthly duty cycle of 150,000 prints.

A universal parallel and USB port are offered for connection to a single computer. There is an ethernet interface available that will provide networking, a feature that is a must for an office with multiple users. All major operating systems are supported. Duplex printing is another included feature, as is a 40 GB hard drive. There are expandable features also that make it a good match for growing businesses. The built-in memory of 512 MB can be upgraded to 1 GB and the standard paper capacity of 1,200 sheets can be increased to a maximum of 4,200 sheets with the addition of more paper trays.

This is a monochromatic laser printer, so only one Kyocera-Mita KM-4050 toner cartridge is used and it holds only black printer toner. A standard Kyocera-Mita KM-4050 toner cartridge has the capacity to print up to 34,000 pages before expiring. Replacement toners are readily available online and directly through the manufacturer. Compatible Kyocera-Mita KM-4050 toner is also an option, which will provide the same quality, but for a much lower price.

This machine weighs as 188 pounds and measures approximately 23.6x25.4x29.3 inches. It is bulky, but considering the space it saves with multiple functions, it is still a good choice for offices with limited space. The affordable replacement Kyocera-Mita KM-4050 toner keeps it within a small budget, and the resolution of 600x1200 dpi produces professional-level quality.
