The Kyocera ECOSYS P5026cdn is an all-in-one colour laser printer with the ability to print, scan, copy and fax. The compact size means that it is easy to place, even in small offices. It will print documents and graphics to a professional standard with rich black text and true-to-life colours in fine detail, making it a good option for small businesses or home offices. However, connection is limited to USB or network, so it is not possible to print directly from smart devices, and any finishing required will need to be done by hand.
