A reliable colour and monochrome printer, the Konica Minolta Magicolor 2350 is a worthy investment for home users as well as offices with low to mid-volume print tasks. It adopts the standard laser printer design, with the output tray sitting right on top. The Konica Minolta Magicolor 2350 is commended for its high quality colour prints and crisp black texts. Photo prints can even be compared, quality-wise, to those of dedicated photo printers. On the other hand, slow print speeds hamper productivity and the awkward design, which puts all the connective cords on the side of the unit can potentially leave users looking for more smartly designed and faster colour laser printers.
Design
The typical box-type design of the Konica Minolta Magicolor 2350 colour laser printer allows convenient desktop operation, although some design glitches can be observed. Connective cords are crammed to the side of the device and extra space at the back of the unit is needed to manage paper jams. Despite this, the Konica Minolta Magicolor 2350 office printer redeems itself with its intuitive control panel, which sits on top of the device, right beside the output bin.
Advantages
The main draw of the Konica Minolta Magicolor 2350 colour laser printer is still its print quality, whether printing on plain or glossy paper. The Magicolor 2350 colour printer also uses high capacity Konica Minolta 2350 cartridges, and toners come in individual tanks which significantly reduces toner waste for each colour. The compact design and small dimensions of the Minolta Magicolor 2350 laser printer make it the ideal fit for small office environments where space is hard to find.
Disadvantages
Unfortunately, though, toner prices are not cheap for the Magicolor 2350, affecting the device's maintenance cost. Its poor design is a bit of an annoyance, and print speed suffers especially when using high-resolution modes. Colour prints come out at very slow speeds of only 4 pages per minute from the Konica Minolta 2350 laser printer.
