Advantages: Quality prints, quiet Disadvantages: A little expensive to run
The Magicolor 2550 is positioned as one of KonicaMinolta's entry level colour laser printers, well almost entry level, as it offers some very nice features without taking the price of the device too high.
The specification on offer from this full colour model is a cracking 20ppm (pages per minute) in monochrome and 5ppm in full colour. The native resolution is 600dpi with a x4 dithering method which beefs this up to an effective 2,400dpi. The model on review here is the standard model, which has 128MB of memory, is network ready and offers Postscript 3 printer language in addition to PCL6 and PDF support.
The 2550DN which is the next model up adds a built-in duplexer and has 256MB of memory, it also adds Pictbridge support for direct connection of a compatible digital camera. Both models are capable of handling a monthly duty cycle ...
Advantages: Great print quality Disadvantages: Slow, expensive

The Priniting
Printing on these is slow. Very slow. It suggests on the manufacturers site that you can expect 5 ppm in colour. Rubbish. If you get 3 pages you are doing well. This printer also suffers from unexplained errors. there is a single error light which occasionally comes on. 9 times out of 10 opening and closing the lid solves this.
The quality of print is excellent and for small scale printing this offers a reasonable choice. however if you are oinly small scale printing I have to ask whether an inkjet would be a better buy. ...
Advantages: Vivid colours, reliable, prints beautifully Disadvantages: Photo printing quality is only 7/10 in my rating
the black one once, the others are running quite low nowadays but they will last 3-4 months at least. The original cartridges in it are:
High capacity black toner (1710517-005) costs £75.71
High capacity cian toner (1710517-008) costs £119.52
High capacity magenta toner (1710517-007) costs £119.52
High capacity yellow toner (1710517-006) costs £119.52
Drum cartridge (1710520-001) costs £124.52 (it is for 45,000 pages at 5% coverage)
There are normal capacity cartridges as well. While the high capacity cartridges are for 4,500 pages at 5% coverage the normal capacity cartridges are for 1,500 pages at the same coverage.
So it is worth buying the high capacity one. To persuade you I enclose the prices of the normal capacity toners as well.
Normal capacity cian toner (1710517-004) costs £68.85
Normal capacity magenta toner (1710517-003) costs £67 ...
