New Multifunction Printers Offer Impressive Image Quality Within a Lightweight, Durable Design for a Reasonable Price
IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 17, 2013--
Toshiba America Business Solutions, Inc. (http://business.toshiba.com), a leading managed document services (MDS) provider and business printing solutions innovator, today introduces its e-STUDIO287cs/347cs/407cs series of multifunction printers (MFPs). Coupling new color feature tools with next generation e-BRIDGE(TM) technology, Toshiba's latest MFPs present small-to-medium sized businesses (SMBs) with the vibrant print quality and performance levels typically reserved for enterprise environments.
By incorporating premier functionality within its compact and durable design, Toshiba's latest MFPs offer the rich feature-set found in the company's other robust, award-winning e-STUDIO models, yet at a fraction of the cost. As a result of its premium print quality and up to 42 pages-per-minute speed, Toshiba's latest MFPs produce-- in short order -- more eye-catching brochures, fliers and presentations likely to impress SMB's current and future clients.
The inclusion of Toshiba's latest e-BRIDGE technology, seamlessly allows users to easily manage, capture and deliver documents at the swipe of a hand via one-touch function keys on the devices' nine-inch, tiltable touch control display. This technology also offers all of the benefits associated with cloud and mobile printing.
As a result of its smaller footprint and lightweight design, Toshiba's latest e-STUDIO line is ideal for SMB environments with limited space and its quiet operation is sure to please all office staff. Moreover, since users may easily replace the MFP's fuser unit, transfer belt and drum unit, routine maintenance may be handled by almost anyone.
To ease information security concerns, the new e-STUDIO line includes the world's first Self-Encrypting Drive featuring Toshiba's unique Wipe Technology and suite of security features providing an elite level of data protection. Should anyone steal and try to install an e-STUDIO hard disk drive (HDD) into another device, its data will automatically erase.
To further minimize energy cost while adhering to Toshiba's environmental commitment, the company's new e-STUDIO line integrates an array of eco options including a Super Sleep Mode reducing power consumption to a meager 1.5 watts and the use of low-temperature fusing toner, which also enhances color reproduction. The company's new MFP line also conforms to the latest ENERGY STAR(R) criteria.
For even greater energy savings, Toshiba offers its award-winning Encompass(TM) Analysis providing users with a comprehensive understanding of their print-related eco footprint while providing solutions to help them reduce environmental impact.
Additionally, Toshiba continues to offer customers free, zero waste to landfill recycling through its partnership with Close the Loop. Through CTL, Toshiba accepts all brands of spent toner cartridges.
"Toshiba is certainly not the first to the A4 office MFP market, but it is arriving with a trio of color models that manage to avoid the economic and functional shortcomings that have hurt some competitive offerings," said Brian Bissett, editor and publisher of The MFP Report. "In particular, the complete e-BRIDGE support on these new A4 models means they offer the exact same user experience, MPS integration and solutions capability as Toshiba's full range of A3-size MFPs, while still being reasonably priced and having good cost per page."
Toshiba's e-STUDIO287cs/347cs/407cs series is currently available through authorized Toshiba dealers at an MSRP range of $2,899 to $4,499. For more information about Toshiba products, or to locate an authorized Toshiba dealer in your area, visit www.business.toshiba.com.
