Kyocera HD-4

Advantages: Fast, Reliable, Easy to Feed paper
Disadvantages: It doesnt fit into standard computer desks,

...After my negative last printer review, I’ve decided to review another of our collection. The Kyocera FS 680 is my personal favourite. Which is a strange thing to admit under the circumstances!! About a year ago while in the process of finding new printers my boss suggested this one, to which I recalled what the hell is the point in buying it…We need A3 minimum and definitely something capable of printing colour. My boss inevitably ignored my comments and headed straight out to purchase this. Incredibly this printer has since become a god send. Although only able to print A4 and black and white, this printer consistently chugs away day after day without a glitch. Before I launch into a buy now buy now speech I’ll tell you the features of the printer and let you decide! Compatibility: This printer as with most is compatible... Read review

Advantages: Very reliable, low cost per page
Disadvantages: None

...is more than any other printer in that class. Black toner cost around £55, color around £80. Standard paper feeder has capacity of 500 sheets (60-105g/m2, A4, B5, A5, Letter and custom 148x210 to 216x356mm), manual feeder takes up to 100 sheets (60-200g/m2, A4 B5, A5, Letter, Legal, Custom 70x148 - 216x297mm). It has unique type ceramic drum (Kyocera patent) which makes it last lifetime of printer. It makes maintenance much easier job (no need for drum replacing) and significantly reduces cost of printing. It's maximum average duty cycle is (according to producer) 15000 pages per month, although it can take much more. It has wide range of accessories improving its (already impressive) performance: duplex unit (a must have in office environment), three additional paper feeders (each takes up to 500 sheets), power envelope feeder, hard...

Advantages: Ease of Use, Speed and quality
Disadvantages: Size of footprint

...Have had the FX1000+ and decided to retire it in favour of this one. It has excellent speed and the internal proc does a lot for it. The quality as you would expect from Kyocera is excellent colour photographs come out excellent in B/W. An excellent machine for the office or home with crisp clear copies all of the time. Speed for copies is excellent to at an advertised 14 ppm, it certainly reaches this. My problem with this one, as with the last is the size of the machine, however, you can ignore this because of the 2 year warranty, which means you have no probs with drum replacement in that time - great. Toner refills are on a par with other manufacturers and are easy to change. A good buy if you can spare the extra money.... Read review
